CHAPTER 5 - Encounter with my Ex-husband

On Monday, Julia put on the “seductive dress” that Emilia prepared for herself, the pink and tender skirt looked a bit like a uniform. The ravines of her curves were very sexy and cute.

After packing up, Julia set off directly to the company.

Julia’s prosperous beauty had spread throughout the hotel, and many people who hadn’t seen her wanted to see.

So, as soon as she walked into the hotel, she could feel different eyes, glaring at her with both good and bad intentions.

“Have you seen it, it’s her, isn’t she beautiful? I heard that she didn’t wear makeup when she came that day!” said a colleague of A.

“Tsk tsk, coming to the hotel dressed like this shows that she wants to become the mistress of the today’s billionaire.” Colleague B said.

“Really? They say he is very rich and handsome!” Colleague C asked.

With her enormous beauty, Julia’s position was unique. It was not very close to anyone. Today, a major customer was coming. If she could win him, she would be the lucky star of the hotel!

“See, that man is so handsome, and is the woman next to him the fiancée he is rumoured to be engaged to?” asked a customer.

“It seems like yeah, she looks really beautiful. How can these people look better than the photos?” asked another one.

“Alas, the rich world that we don’t understand!” added another one.

Julia vaguely heard the chatter from outside. She didn’t know what kind of customers could make them so excited and hyped up.

In the hotel’s restaurant’s VIP floor, about thirty or forty metres away, a bunch of rich men were chatting with a major client on one of the tables, “Mr. Robson, don’t worry, we do this professionally and will definitely meet your requirements.”

“Mr. Ellis, I might only saw that I leave this project for you.” Responded Mr. Robson.

“It would be my pleasure to work with you, Mr. Robson.”

“Bring us some drinks!!”

When the men were discussing business, Julia’s face instantly stiffened when she saw the person sitting at the front. Was it him, Victor Robson?

It was not that she didn’t expect to meet him, but it was too sudden for her.

When Victor looked over, Julia immediately looked away, pretending not to see him. Even if she was dressed as a waitress, even if she was holding cups of wine, and even if she was as petite as her, Victor still noticed her at a glance.

“Julia Sigmund?” he thought as he stared at the waitress in front of him. “No, not her. She was very different, how could it be the same person? Also, why should she be a waitress in this hotel??”

“Mr. Robson, Mr. Robson?” Mr. Ellis called out, and the woman sitting next to Victor noticed his gaffe and followed his line of sight to Julia.

The elegant woman next to him was sure that it was Julia Sigmund, since she was her best friend Monica, and the one proclaimed to be his fiancée.

Putting away the emotions in her eyes, she spoke for Victor, “Let your team sit first!”

Mr. Ellis nodded and immediately ordered them to sit down.

As Julia approached to place the wine glasses on the table, Monica spread her foot and tripped Julia to fall.

Hastily, Julia’s cups flied towards Mr. Ellis and her body felt weightless as she fell on his chest.

Mr. Ellis opened his arms wide and caught the falling Julia, as she fell directly into his bosom, in front of Victor’s sight.

Mr. Ellis pulled Julia’s head into his chest, as the wine soaked his very expensive black suit. She clutched at his trouser and could hear his heart beats under her ears.

Julia felt her face burning hot and her body trembling. It was only her first day at work, and she tripped into such a mistake and met with her ex-husband and her old best friend. What an unfortunate day!!

“I am sorry! Mister!!” she cried as she pulled away from his chest. “I am very sorry!! I swear I didn’t mean it!!”

Mr. Ellis stared at the petite beauty in front of him, was there any other cute and beautiful woman in this world??

“Idiot waitress!!!” yelled a businessman “And they say that you are a VIP maiden!!!”

“How could you do it??” roared another man. “This is mister Eliot Ellis!!! Do you know who you have insulted???”

“A thousand of your salary can’t pay for his suit!!” warned another one.

“I have to ask for a change.” Claimed Monica “This maiden is not fit for the job.”

A smirk curved on Monica’s lips, and it reminded Julia of her smirk at that night. In her heart, she knew that Monica had tripped her intentionally, but she could say nothing since no one would believe her.

Julia held out her handkerchief and attempted to wipe Elliot Ellis’s chest as she said: “Let me clean your suit please, master.”

Staring at the little lady bowing and wiping his clothes, Elliot couldn’t help but skip a heartbeat. For the first time in his life, his cheeks tinted scarlet for a woman and his voice faded away.

Victor stared at him for a long time, as if he wanted to see the love sparkling in his eyes, as he felt a fire burning his guts.

“Victor, we have other itineraries next, can’t we start the project directly?” Monica Howard, the rumoured fiancée, said.

Victor, then, withdrew his gaze and nodded, “Let’s get started.”

Then, Elliot stood up, held Julia’s hand and murmured: “It is alright, it is not your fault. You must be new here and have some difficult time.”

Julia stared at him, not noticing Victor’s gazes, and Elliot offered a gentle smile as he introduced himself: “My name is Elliot Ellis. I have just returned from France and will have my stay in this hotel. May I ask for your service? Thank you, little miss!”

Victor didn’t listen to Monica, as he was only staring at both of them and listening to their conversation.

On the other hand, Julia felt like her heart could burst at any moment. Who was that angel in front of her?

She stood up and excused herself hurriedly to the toilet.

Now that Julia Sigmund was back, she was ready to be known by Victor Robson at any time. Even if the day would come without any warning, such an encounter was better than seeing her directly with the children.
