Grant Corporation.
We just so happened to bump into Drover who had just come over when we arrived at the hall.
"Miss Lane, Director Doyle."
"Mr. Drover."

"I see," I said softly.
Nicky remained silent. Drover seemed to have noticed her and looked over. "Has the wound on your face recovered, Director
Doyle?"
He immediately brought up this topic upon arriving. I looked at Nicky carefully and explained on her behalf, "It's almost healed. Let's go up together, Mr. Drover."
"Alright."
Fortunately, he did not ask any further questions and we entered the elevator together.
The project meeting was only attended by the key individuals, hence I was not listed.
In my department, all I could think about at this moment was how to help Nicky remove the scar on her face.
That noon, Shannon just so happened to have invited me to eat at a restaurant near the company, so I went.
I was a little mentally preoccupied because of the matter with Nicky and did not have an appetite. Shannon looked at me and put down her cutleries. "What's wrong, Wanda? Do you really not have an appetite eating with me?"
I came back to my senses. Hearing what she said, I quickly explained, "Oh no, it’s because of Nicky."
