Sherman wanted to talk in the company, but Billy said the coffee was not good there, so the manager let them talk outside.
The project was ongoing. Even though Sherman was reluctant, work was more important to her, so she gave in to them. Sherman went to the gate of the company, preceded by Billy.
When the revolving door opened, Sherman saw Kingsley standing outside.
Sherman was stunned, thinking it was her illusion. However, that figure came towards her.
And the next Kingsley held her with his sturdy arms around her waist. He put his stubble chin against her hair, oblivious to the passing of colleagues. He said in a deep voice, "I miss you. God, I finally see you. It feels good to hug you..."
Sherman blushed when she heard his words.
Although she thought it was unseemly to be so lovey-dovey in public, her missing for him made her no longer want to care about other people's opinions at that moment.
Sherman also held Kingsley tightly.
She was in his arms, and a breath of a mature man came to her face...
The scene was beautiful and romantic, but Billy did not think so. He thought Kingsley was an eyesore, and he wanted to keep them apart.
"Are you going to work?" Kingsley asked a little dejectedly.
Sherman recognized her dejection. Kingsley was wearing a black coat with slight wrinkles on it and apparently came straight to her after he got off the plane.
She thought for a moment, and somehow, she said," How about I take the day off?"
A shadow of a smile touched Kingsley's mouth, and the weariness of his night journey vanished at that moment, "Why not? Will you call the manager for leave, or will I call?"
Sherman said, "You call him. If I call him, I will leave a bad impression on him."
Kingsley's smile broadened. He stood in the hall and called the manager.
