NovelEnglishChapter 367 Having just suffered a setback caused by Suzanne, Seline didn't want to speak to her at all. She turned and left the room.
Suzanne returned to her desk, took out her phone, and snapped a photo of the lunchbox to send to Austin. Along with the photo, she texted, "I've received today's food," and sent a cute emoji.
At that moment, Austin was in the CEO's office of Hall Corporation discussing business with several department managers when his phone suddenly buzzed. When it first happened, everyone was shocked. But by now, they were used to it.
Tyler, the manager of the business department, was in the middle of reporting data. He paused briefly when he saw Austin pick up his phone, then calmly continued.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAustin's fingers tapped on the screen as he replied. "Okay." When Suzanne saw the message, the corners of her lips lifted slightly. She could already picture Austin frowning as he typed his response.
With a soft chuckle, she shook her head and put down her phone.
Upon opening the lunchbox, she was immediately greeted by the delicious aroma of food. She instinctively closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She wasn't that hungry before, but now, her appetite was worked up.
Roasted chicken, green beans, and pumpkin soup. These were simple, home-cooked dishes, but they were all her favorites.
Austin quietly took care of everything without saying a word.
Warmth spread through Suzanne's heart. She picked up her cutlery and began eating.
Maybe it was because of Austin's thoughtful gesture, but her mood was great for the rest of the afternoon at work-until a delivery man appeared at the design department with yet another bouquet of flowers.
Her expression instantly darkened. She didn't even need to guess to know that it was from Jenson. She didn't understand why he was doing this.
Didn't he like Seline? Now, he was blatantly sending her flowers and even signing his name. Was he not afraid that this would affect his career? After all, he used to claim that he couldn't go public with a relationship because his career was on the rise. Or was it because he had heard about her and Austin and was panicking? The delivery man was already familiar with Suzanne. Without needing to say much, he stepped forward and placed the bouquet on her desk. With a polite smile, he said, "Ms. Yates, please sign for it." But Suzanne simply pointed at the pink roses and said, "Could I trouble you with a favor? From now on, if this person sends anything, just throw it in the trash." She didn't want to see anything from Jenson. It made her feel sick.
The delivery man looked at her in confusion, then shook his head. "I'm sorry, Ms. Yates. We can't dispose of a customer's package without permission." If any issues arose later, it would be troublesome.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuzanne realized she had let her anger cloud her judgment. Massaging her temples, she cast a look of undisguised disgust at the bouquet and nodded. "Alright." Not wanting to make things difficult for the delivery man, she quickly signed for the flowers. Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone in the office, she stood up and tossed the bouquet into the trash bin The discarded pink roses in the trash bin were a stark contrast to the cherished red roses displayed on her desk.
Inside the manager's office, Seline witnessed the entire scene. Her gaze burned with rage, and her hands clenched into fists as she cursed, "That damned bitch! She doesn't know what's good for her!" How could she treat Jenson's gift like that?
If only those flowers had been sent to her instead. She would've preserved them and treasured them forever.
But that wench had simply tossed them in the trash.
Ah, that bitch!
Everyone in the design department had also seen the scene unfold. They whispered "Oh my god! She just threw away flowers from Mr. Movie Star."
