Chapter 563 - Where’s Your Manners?
"Oh, right!" Mrs. Rusminah suddenly said. The middle-aged woman wiped her tears and then continued, "Last night, Mr. Oscar didn't want to leave you alone..."
Even though Lisa's cheeks turned red when she heard that, she didn't want to let the maid know. She turned around and walked towards the bathroom, "Yeah yeah, I know. Otherwise, how come I wake up in this room? Can I sleep here but the owner sleeps in the living room?"
"Oh, that's not what I meant. Ever since Mr. Oscar came home, he didn't want to leave you alone! Last night, he didn't sleep at all and was looking after you. I know because he called me many times to ask for help." Mrs.. Rusminah said.
Suddenly, Lisa's footsteps stopped. The woman turned and showed a surprised look on her face, "Oscar didn't sleep last night?"
Mrs. Rusminah nodded her head, "Yes, although I have said many times that I have prepared an empty room for him, he still doesn't want to move from this place. Mr. Oscar is still sitting on the sofa and watching you from afar."
"Miss Lisa, sorry if I sound rude, I know that Mr. Oscar is not your family anymore. But I, as an outsider, know that he still has affection and care for you. Is there even an ex-husband and wife like you and Mr. Oscar who still take care of each other?"
She still remembered the incident that made Oscar have to stitch his arm. The man really did it all just to protect Lisa. The woman always made sure that the man would heal. Even though she would come with some piles of work, she would still help Oscar take his medicine and change the man's bandage.
Such a rare sight was amazing for the maid, she couldn't even find any dramas that showed the ex couple to still be on good terms with each other. At first, she thought that they cared about each other because they had a child together, William.
But as time goes by, she realizes that they actually still have feelings for each other. At some point, she even thought that Lisa and Oscar were the perfect match. It's just that they met at the wrong time.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand at all." Lisa replied while trying not to smile shyly.
Without waiting for an answer from the middle-aged woman, Lisa turned around and rushed into the bathroom. She washed her face with the cold sink water, hoping that her face temperature would drop.
Lisa brushed her teeth with the new toothbrush Oscar had kept in the cupboard, smiled through her teeth in the mirror, then walked out of the bathroom.
When Lisa came down the stairs and sat on the dining table chair, she still didn't see William. Just before she asked, Mrs. Rusminah had already explained.
"William had been escorted by Dani to school. Today, he has a trip to the zoo together so he has to leave early." Mrs. Rusminah said as she poured the warm soup into the bowl.
Lisa only cleared her throat briefly hearing that.
After the short breakfast, Lisa returned to Oscar's room. Of course she couldn't come to the office wearing yesterday's dress. Apart from the fact that the dress emitted a strong alcohol scent, she was also uncomfortable wearing a party dress to the office.
Finally, the woman returned to the empty room that had the large wardrobe. Lisa took clothes that looked casual but also formal to wear to the office that morning. She thinks of taking the clothes she wore today and also yesterday's dress to the laundry.
Because to be honest, Lisa wasn't sure how to wash those expensive clothes in Vira's apartment.
Don't let Oscar's clothes, which of course come from expensive brands, be damaged just because he washed them by hand!
"I'm so dead! What should I wear?" Lisa muttered while looking at her reflection in the mirror.
The clothes Lisa was referring to was a yellow knitted sweater combined with a short white skirt. She chose to wear it because the knitted sweater and short skirt were the only clothes that looked casual but at the same time formal.
Lisa couldn't imagine herself wearing a leopard print shirt with black trousers. Sometimes she was confused by Oscar's taste. Why did the man even think about buying her such clothes in the first place?

Arriving at the office, Lisa did not waste any more time visiting Maria's room. She ignored the enthusiastic greeting that Cicilia said to her. The woman couldn't wait to slap Maria with her high heels!
If Oscar hadn't shown her the recording and exposed Maria's rotten intention, maybe she would've come to the office like a fool and believed that nothing was wrong.
Not even braindead people would fall for Maria's trick. But apparently, Lisa did.
Maria had already set up an evil plan to send her to Robert's bed. Wanting Robert to admit that it wasn't his fault one hundred percent, Lisa still felt annoyed. These days, which man would want to sleep with another woman as a 'corporate gift'?
Besides, doesn't Robert already have a wife? Robert and Surya turned out to be the same. It's nice to play with girls even though they already have a woman waiting for them in their house.
As soon as Lisa stepped into the office building, she couldn't wait to expose Maria's disgrace. But the woman tried to restrain herself. In this company, Maria is still their superior who should be respected. He didn't want her cheesy acting to make him publicly humiliated.
Even though Maria treats her like that, Lisa still understands what courtesy is.
However, what Maria had treated yesterday was truly cruel. The woman had the heart to lie to him, and told Robert, a foreign man, to sleep with him just because he wanted revenge.
Like a tornado, Lisa entered Maria's room without knocking first. Behind the table, he saw Maria looking at her rose-colored fingernails. The cold room was filled with pop songs that could make anyone who heard them want to nod their heads to the tune of the song.
But not with Lisa.
Lisa was standing right in front of Maria's desk with a flushed face and tightly clenched hands. The woman sitting behind the desk looked up and frowned.
"Lisa, where are your manners? Don't you know that before entering here you have to knock on the door first?"
