Charlie was an assistant, and now he had no work to do, so he stood next to her and helped her sort through the documents.
He didn’t know that she had a talent for designing before. He felt amazed seeing her design drawings in front of him.
Looking at them one after another, Charlie thought that these jewelry designs created by Grace were beautiful, unique, and elegant.
Grace ignored him. She was drawing on the paper briskly, looking so charming.
Charlie stood there quietly for fear that he would interrupt her.
The room was silent. Only the sound of them breathing and her pen rustling could be heard.
It was lunchtime soon. Charlie glanced at the clock and then at Grace.
She didn't seem to want to get up and eat lunch. She was sunk in her work.
After thinking for a moment, Charlie didn't disturb her. He quietly waited for her to look up and speak.
Thirty minutes later, she still maintained the same posture, without moving.
Finally, Charlie stepped over and slowly said, "It's time for lunch."
Grace didn't respond. She propped her slender arms on the desk and rubbed her forehead.
There were several places in the design that she was unsatisfied with. She felt they were not coordinated and comfortable. She thought for a long while but didn't have a better idea. Suddenly being interrupted, she was annoyed. She ordered with a frown. "Stop! Keep quiet. Don’t disturb me."
She lowered her head again and continued to work.
Charlie raised his eyebrows. After a moment of silence, he went forward and snatched the pen from her hand. "It's already 2:30. You must eat lunch, or your stomach will hurt."
