"Handsome man?" Glenna was stunned for a moment. She thought about her recent suitors and figured that it
could only be that unshakable rich kid and said shyly, 'You're kidding me. How is that a handsome man... I shall buy
you dinner tonight if you can get rid of him for me. Thanks!"
'You can’t be getting rid of a fine, handsome man like that, right?" The colleague covered her mouth, chuckled to
herself, and said, "Can I have him if you don’t want him?"
"Hold on..." Glenna called over the colleague because she knew her colleague’s beauty standard for men. "It's not
Joshua West?"
The colleague said in contempt, "What? How can you compare that man to my Adonis? Ms. Glaser, I highly advise
you to apologize to my Adonis at once. Otherwise, I’m going to punish you for slandering my Adonis!"
It was possible that Glenna would become a harmonious whole in the past, but she was not in the mood to do so
recently. However, she had come to realize immediately that the incoming person was not Joshua, all thanks to her

Yet, who else could it be if not Joshua?
It was a man who was addressed as 'Adonis' by her colleague...
That person’s figure emerged in Glenna's mind almost instantaneously. Soon afterward, her expression turned
unpleasant, and she shook her head to get rid of the thoughts.
He could not possibly have come here, and he would not have come either.
"I shall take a look."
She got up from her chair and grabbed her jacket to head out. She got into an elevator and headed downstairs. She
could not help feeling stunned when she saw the figure standing at the lobby's entrance.
Declan turned his head as well.
The moment their eyes met, Glenna immediately recovered from her surprise and turned around in preparation to
get into the elevator.
Declan said, "Glenna, I feel that constantly hiding is not going to work. What do you think? I brought you your
favorite dessert. Let's go out and talk. It will only take you ten minutes."
Glenna stood in the same spot, her palms sweaty. She was overwhelmed with inner struggles and torment when
she said, "My superior doesn't allow me to leave my position during working hours, so-"
"When do you get off work? I’ll wait for you so we can grab dinner together while we're at it."
"In two hours. You should go back first. I’ll reach out to you myself."
Decla smiled and said, "It might take years for you to reach out to me. I shall wait for you instead."
Glenna was vexed. "As you wish. I shall go back to work now."
She pressed the elevator button desperately and walked straight into it in anger. She felt mentally exhausted the
moment the elevator door was shut.
She returned to her cubicle on the fourth floor, and her colleague approached her swiftly.
"How was it?"

The colleague winked at her. 'You’re still going to put on airs with me, huh? It's your boyfriend, right? Is that fine,
handsome man here to see you so he can ask you out on a date?"
"No.” Glenna's head was throbbing, and she made up an excuse. "My childhood friend is his subordinate. He is free
today and helping my friend deliver some stuff."
"I see." The colleague sympathized with Glenna, but she was rather excited as well. "So, does that mean that I
stand a chance again?"
"Yes." Glenna smirked. "Hence, your chance to get his number is upon you now."
The colleague looked at Glenna and checked herself in the mirror before returning to her cubicle.
"Forget it! I should know my place. Aside from my qualities, I'm not lucky enough to strike gold. Even if I do manage
to strike gold, I will be constantly panic-stricken about some cunning woman trying to seduce my handsome man. I
will die from a heart attack in less than half a month, and it's not a worthy cause!"
The staff members in the office began to engage in a discussion after one colleague stopped chattering.
