She swallowed saliva but did not accept it and said indifferently, "I am sorry. I can't accept it." After finishing her words, she heard the noise outside the door. In the following second, Joseph appeared in her eyes. He was negotiating something with Professor Tim, but Daisy, who was always composed, was also shocked when she saw what happened in Irish's office.
Irish saw clearly the change in Daisy's expression, and she soon turned to Joseph. However, he also stopped, looking at her, and had seen Mr. Kim's courtship clearly. But it was not just Joseph, Professor Tim was also stunned by the scene.
Irish really wanted to throw him out of her office immediately and quickly hide since she was so embarrassed now that so many people had seen this.
Mr. Kim also perceived the movement outside, and he was even more enthusiastic. What was even more surprising was that he actually plopped his knees and raised the flowers over his head. "Ms. Irish, you have to accept the flowers, or I'll keep kneeling here."
This bunch of flowers was too big for his height, but he still toiled up the flowers there.
"Mr. Kim, please get out of my office." Irish tried to calm down and said patiently. But she took a quick glimpse at Joseph, who put his hands in his pocket, standing there motionlessly. And he looked as calm as usual while his tall figure blocked the sunshine from the window.
Professor Tim glanced at Mr. Kim, then turned to Irish, "What happened?" Though he was not old-maidish and though he also permitted his employees to fall in love freely, it was not appropriate, causing adverse effects in the working place.
Before Irish could reply, Mr. Kim hastily answered excitedly as if Tim was his savior, "Are you the boss of Ms. Irish? I am glad that you came here in time. Would you like to be my witness?" Tim was shocked, while Irish was also startled by his words. However, Mr. Kim seemed to have made a firm decision and stood up abruptly when he saw there were several people outside. But Irish was startled in the next second as if she was struck by lightning. Unexpectedly, he stepped forward and pulled Joseph with a big smile, and said, "Are you the colleague of Ms. Irish? Please come in. I invite you to be my witness." And then he pushed Daisy and Joseph into her office.
Irish felt her heart was about to jump out, and she stared at Joseph, who still looked indifferently while his eyes were so profound that she couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
"Ms. Irish, please accept my courtship. I can swear before your boss and colleagues I will love you forever. It doesn't matter if you don't like flowers, and I have another gift for you." He put aside the bunch of red roses, hastily taking an exquisite box from his portfolio and opening it in public. At the moment he opened it, Christy even made a sharp gasp of surprise.
Irish felt dazzled, so she covered her eyes subconsciously and wondered what kind of gift Kim wanted to give her. A few seconds later, she took a closer look but was shocked since there was a necklace lying in the box. It was adorned with brilliant jewels and pearls, with beads of diamond in the middle. The chain was made of pure gold carvings like large peony flowers.
"I know you like diamond necklaces since you always were one, so I picked up a good diamond necklace for you." Mr. Kim kneeled again while his small eyes were sparkling like diamonds.
Irish touched her necklace subconsciously and then looked at Joseph and found he was also staring at her with his mouth puckering slightly. She drew back her eyes and felt flurried.
The necklace on her neck was the one they made in South Africa together, and that was the reason why she liked it very much. It was not because of how expensive it was but because of the valuable memories in South Africa.
"Ms. Irish's neck is thin, and this necklace seems unfit for her." Unexpectedly, Daisy said suddenly.
Irish took a glimpse at her and smiled faintly.
"I am wholehearted. Suppose she doesn't like it. I can change another one for her until she is satisfied." Kim explained.
However, Irish was out of patience and said, "Mr. Kim, I won't accept your flowers and gifts. I have told you many times that I don't like you."
"But I love you so much." Mr. Kim ignored her words and said sincerely, "I know the man who I met last time is not your boyfriend at all. You don't have a boyfriend, so please don't lie to me."
Irish was speechless while Joseph frowned at him severely.
"I can vow before them that as long as you agree to be with me, I will give everything I have to you, and you have a decisive say in everything. Okay?"
Hearing this, Irish turned to Joseph, who had never given her a promise like this." Then Daisy walked forward and looked carefully at the necklace in Mr. Kim's hand, saying, "It must cost you a lot of money. The good, as well as the diamond, are valuable, while the diamond is even much more expensive. It seems that he is sincere." She turned to Joseph while saying these words.
"Yes. Yes. I like to research some valuable items. But this necklace is still not enough for me to show my love to Ms. Irish. And I can give her all of my valuable jewelry as long as she is with me." Mr. Kim did not perceive Daisy's expression and said excitedly. Irish was at a loss, and she looked at Professor Tim but found he was also helpless.
Unexpectedly, Joseph, who had kept silent for a long time, suddenly said to Daisy but not to Mr. Kim, "Don't teach fish how to swim before Mr. Kim. Let's go."
After finishing his words, he walked away first, and Daisy took a look at Irish and then left with him. When the door closed gradually, she was a little disappointed. How could he leave directly like this? She felt stuffy.
