Chapter 70
She swallowed her saliva.
“Hello, who are you searching for?” Daniel inquired.
“I’m sorry, I went to the wrong location.”
She turned and proceeded toward the stairway as she said. She swiftly opened the door and exited.
Daniel was perplexed. What could possibly go wrong?
This was the 36th floor; who would go there by accident?
After all, why did she take the stairs? Why does she have to walk down there?
He turned around and returned to his desk in front of the CEO’s office, shaking his head. He pulled out his car key and prepared to return downstairs.
After a few steps, he was reminded of the plates that had been left on Wills Waltson’s table the day before, as well as the strange ringtone in Wills Waltson’s resting room.
He shook his head.
It’s no surprise that Wills Waltson had told him to leave the last several days when it was time to leave work. He appeared to be playing a joke on that woman right now.
Didn’t that imply he’d thwarted Wills Waltson’s plans?
He turned back and knocked on the door to the CEO’s office after a brief delay.
“Please come in.”
Wills Waltson scowled when he realized it was Daniel: “Daniel?”
Wills Waltson was indeed waiting for someone.
“Mr. Waltson, I forgot to bring my car keys with me when I left. Miss Greenwich was on the elevator when I returned to grab my car keys.”
“Where is her now?” Wills Waltson wondered.
“She claimed she made a mistake and exited via the stairway.”
Wills Waltson stated flatly: “You dined without bringing your car keys. What good is your brain?”
Daniel was hurt because people make errors.
Wills Waltson pulled out his phone and dialed her number.
After the call was connected, an agitated voice on the other end said, “It’s done, it’s done. Your secretary recently saw me. Fortunately, I was wise and stated that I had taken the wrong path. I’ve snuck downstairs now. I’m not sure if he’ll suspect me.”
Wills Waltson gave Daniel a smirk.
Daniel lowered his gaze instantly.
“He’s no longer there. You are welcome to come up.”
“No, I’m terrified to death. You eat your lunch alone.”
She immediately hung up the phone after saying that.
She remained at the bottom of the stairs, sat on the steps, opened her lunchbox, and began eating.
Walton, Wills threw his phone on the table and fixed his gaze on Daniel
“Mr. Waltson, I’m sorry,” Daniel felt even more guilty.
“Can I have your apology as a meal? Please make me a meal.”
“Yes.”
Daniel left his office feeling guilty.
Halfway through the meal, someone pushed open the door at the top of the stairs and smoked a cigarette.
When he saw her, he closed the door and departed.
However, the stairwell door opened again a few minutes later, and Jarry entered.
He approached her and smiled.
“Are you dining here?”
She wiped the corner of her mouth and put the lunchbox away after feeling uneasy for a bit.
It was said that dogs who ate were not allowed to be disturbed.
This man was true…
“Jarry . Why haven’t you gone out to eat yet?”
“I had planned to treat you to a supper. I haven’t gone downstairs yet because you didn’t say yes. Are you going to stop eating?”Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Yes, I’m completely filled.” She was going to put away the lunchbox.
Jarry had already snatched her lunch box from her grasp: “If you don’t mind, I’ll find a way around it; it’s not nice to waste food, after all, is it?”
She wanted to take back the lunchbox: “Jarry , I’ve already eaten this, it’s not good.”
“It’s okay because we’re all colleagues.” He grinned as he took the lunchbox from her and sat down alongside her on the floor.
She got to her feet and walked around to the bottom of the stairs, keeping her distance from him.
Seeing this, Jarry expressed his disappointment: “Luna, do you hate me?”
With a serene look, she linked her hands behind her back.
“Kerry, I understand what you were saying last night, so I hope we can maintain some distance. After all, I have a boyfriend, so I must accept responsibility for him. You’d be uncomfortable if your girlfriend did the same thing and flirted with another man behind your back, right?”
She bowed down when she finished speaking to remove the lunchbox from his grasp “I’m not used to letting others eat the rest of my meal, so please accept my apologies, but I’ll take this. I still need to return and do some tasks.”
Jarry was even more pleased with her.
After all, there weren’t many girls who could compete with her.
He would adore and care for her if he was her boyfriend.
Wills Waltson returned to her residence in the evening. And his justification was that she hadn’t brought him lunch today.
She had the impression that she had provoked a chunk of plaster.
She couldn’t even sever it.
While they were eating, they had the notion, “Oh right, let me tell you ahead of time, from noon tomorrow forward, I will no longer bring you food.”
“For fear of being seen by my secretary? Do you want me to fire him? ”
Wills Waltson was joking, but Luna Greenwich believed him. He glared at him: “It’s not because of your secretary, every time I go up there, my heart would start beating wildly, and I feel even more nervous than if I had attended a large exam. I don’t want to be exhausted every day.”
“But you already said you’d cook for me.”
“Then what you’re eating now isn’t something I made?” she questioned, pointing to his dish.
Wills Waltson cocked his brow, “So, our lunchtime has been shifted tonight? Okay, I’ll agree.”
She reasoned that even if she brought him food at midday every day, he would still come in the evening.
Why would she refuse if it was the case?
She formally began instructing the company’s employees a week later.
Perhaps it was because she had been a home tutor before, she performed best out of the four temporary instructors.
When the morning lecture ended, she felt that it was very enjoyable.
At noon, just as she was about to leave, Amily called out to her.
“Luna , let’s eat together.”
Her voice was loud.
Most of the people in the office heard it.
It wouldn’t be good to reject her in front of so many people.
Thus, she nodded her head.
The two of them went to the company’s restaurant as usual.
When they were eating, Amily asked, “Have you noticed that the atmosphere in the office has been weird recently?”
Luna shook her head.
“Ah, it can’t be. You don’t listen to anything outside the window, you only focus on your work. I heard that in the past, Any is the center of all the offices, she is used to showing off and has always been the most respected one, but in these past few days, don’t you see that Any is very docile? Everyone is praising the new director. ”
She smiled warmly, “It’s better not talk about other people’s matters. After all, this has nothing to do with us.”
“Actually, a week ago, after Any bullied you, I also hated her a lot. Even she has been bullied by the new director, she deserves it.”
Before she could say anything, Any ‘s sarcastic voice came from the side.
“Ah, you are so mean. Is that funny talking something bad about me behind my back?”
