"Lunch's here." Vera pushed the door open and entered. Her tone and expression were obviously different than when she had left. When she went downstairs, she looked as if she was going onto the battlefield.
When she came back, her expression looked gloomy, as if someone had bullied her.
"What's wrong?" Minerva glanced at her and asked in amusement, "Did you quarrel with Sam?"
When she heard this, Vera snorted and replied, "We didn't. He could not say a word after I was done lecturing him." After that, she handed the lunch bag over to Minerva. "Come and get your love-filled lunch."
The words "love-filled lunch" made Minerva blush. She wasn't willing to walk over to get it. She coughed softly and said, "Since you went to get it, it's yours. Today, I feel like having some light oatmeal in the canteen."
After that, Han Minerva began packing up and went downstairs.
Vera's face quickly fell and she quickly stepped forward to stop Minerva.
"Are you kidding me? This is from Maddox. How could you give it to me? If he finds out, he will surely kill me."
"Don't talk as if he's a serial killer. It's just lunch."
"Oh?" Vera raised her eyebrows and questioned her, "Are you not happy that I said that he's a serial killer? Are you protecting him?"
Minerva fell speechless.
"Okay, hurry up and have your love- filled lunch. I'll go down first."
Vera did not wait for her to react. She stuffed the bag into Minerva's hand, turned around and ran away. She even closed the office door for her.
In the end, Minerva brought the lunch bag over to the lounge. When she opened the bag, she saw an exquisite- looking lunch box. When she opened the lid, she saw a combination of meat, vegetables as well as a serving of soup.
Buzz...
Minerva's phone vibrated. She glanced at the phone on the table and saw the Facebook message from Maddox.
"Enjoy the meal. I'll pick you up after work."
As she looked at the message and the lunch before her, Minerva felt that there something wasn't quite right.
Why did it feel like they were acting like they were madly in love?
It didn't seem like Maddox would be the kind of man to send lunch over to someone.
However, ever since she had met him again, he had done many surprising things.
After lunch, Minerva cleaned up after herself and rested on the sofa.
Maddox did not message her ever since.
The lunch break then ended.
As soon as she went back to work, a client came to order a batch of work uniforms for spring and summer. Since it was a big deal, Vera invited the client to the office and asked Minerva to discuss with him in detail.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Hanover."
The client was a middle-aged man named Justin Yeager. He was dressed in a suit and looked energetic. At first glance, you could tell that he was a successful businessman.
He took a business card out and handed it to Minerva.
"I'm Justin Yeager, the manager of Blue Sky Company. I want to discuss with you regarding the next batch of work uniforms for spring and summer. Miss Hanover, do you have any good ideas?"
Minerva took over the business card, looked at it seriously and then smiled.
