After scarfing down her food, Seraphina quickly tidied up, opened the door, and was about to dump the trash just outside when she saw Keen coming back with Valerio.
The moment Valerio saw Seraphina opening the door, he dashed into the house as if worried he'd be taken away.
Watching this, Seraphina shot a helpless look at the man before her, "Is your boss out of his mind or what?"
Keen smiled at her, "What do you mean?"
"He clearly doesn't like how I take care of his kid, yet he still leaves the kid with me, if that's not nuts then what is?" Seraphina, leaning against the door with her arms crossed, rolled her eyes.
Keen still smiling, said, "Mr. Reynolds is really busy." He checked his watch and added, "He's already back at the office, having a meeting with the folks from Starhaven."
Seraphina snorted.
Keen continued, "To Mr. Reynolds, apart from Valerio, work is the most important thing. Now that he can't juggle both, with Ms. Bennett's help, Mr. Reynolds should be able to focus on his work."
Seraphina watched him for a while before bursting into laughter, "Mr. Keen, you really have a way with words, no wonder you're Mr. Reynolds' assistant."
Just as Keen was about to say something more, Seraphina had already turned around, walked back into the house, and shut the door.
Keen touched his nose and chuckled.
By the time Keen got back to the office, thirty minutes had passed, and the meeting led by Leandro with the executives from foreign country Starhaven had been going on for over an hour.
So, he wasn't in a hurry to join the meeting and instead sauntered into the pantry.
Not two minutes later, Leandro's secretary, Yasmina, hurried into the pantry. Seeing Keen, she heaved a sigh of relief, "You're finally back."
"What's up?" Keen asked, holding his coffee.
