It wasn't like Lolita couldn't see Minerva's coldness in the past, so now that she had taken the initiative to shake her hand, Lolita felt... that she finally accepted her.
"Eh? Is it because we're not competing now that you're willing to accept me?"
Upon hearing this, Minerva was also thinking about this question. If it was said that the two of them had competed with each other then, she also had no reason to reject her.
It was just that, Lolita's enthusiasm made her a little scared.
Ever since the incident with Sylvia, Minerva felt that... it was very difficult for her to get to know a stranger again, much less trust them.
Especially when Lolita appeared at such a crucial moment.
Minerva didn't know if others would find out that she had gone abroad. What if... Lolita was arranged by someone else?
As Minerva did not answer, Lolita smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Even if it's for this reason, I won't be unhappy. You know, I've been working hard abroad for a long time, but... no one is willing to talk to me, probably because I'm inferior to others everywhere. But... When I was talking to you that day, you replied to me, so I think that you're a good person."
Minerva was puzzled.
Did Lolita feel that she was a good person just because she replied to her?
This girl was too naive.
"Anyway, thank you. The elevator is here. Let's go."
The two of them entered the elevator. Coincidentally, when Minerva and Lolita entered the elevator, the elevator rang again. The two of them were stunned and then they looked at each other. Two seconds later, they laughed together.
The two of them laughed as they got out of the elevator. They didn't care about how the people inside looked at them as if they were crazy and kept laughing.
The two of them finally stopped laughing after a long while.
At this moment, it seemed that the relationship between them... was getting closer.
However, this time, they did not try to take the other elevator. Instead, they waited obediently. When the elevator went downstairs again, they got into it.
This time, there were not that many people. Lolita pressed on her own floor and asked her, "Are you going directly to work?"
Minerva nodded. "Probably."
Lolita looked at her with an envious expression. "That's great. I saw you being interviewed for such a long time, and I knew that you would get this position."
If it wasn't for the fact that she had been in there for ten minutes, perhaps Lolita wouldn't have given up on the job and sought for other positions.
After all, for her, the position of assistant secretary was better than the ordinary staff and the salary was higher.
What she needed most at that moment was money.
However... Her ability was not as great as other people's, so she had to bow her head and admit defeat.
Minerva didn't reply, she just gave her a smile. Soon, they arrived at Lolita's floor. She said goodbye and left. Minerva went directly to her floor to report for work.
"Hello, I'm here to report for work. I'm the assistant secretary."
The woman looked at her lazily and pointed in a direction. "That's the secretary's office."
Minerva looked in the direction she was pointing and saw the secretary's office. She thanked the woman and walked forward.
