"Ms. Thalia."
I walked up to greet her but startled her instead, causing her to almost toss the lunch box in her hands to the
floor.
"M-Mrs. Grant." She was so stunned that her face was pale with shock.
Seeing how shocked she was by me, | quickly apologized. “I'm sorry, | didn't mean to frighten you. | thought you
saw me."
She was probably so immersed in the joy of being in love that she did not notice the people and things around
her, that was why she was startled when | suddenly spoke.
Thalia calmed herself down, and the blush on her face was gone. She actually looked a little pale now. "I'm sorry,

| laughed. "I should be the one apologizing for calling you when I'm so near. It's no wonder you were shocked."
| pointed at the lunch box in her hand and asked with a smile, "Are you dating someone?"
Thalia was startled and quickly hid the lunch box behind her. She lowered her head and muttered, "No, I'm just
delivering ssnacks to my colleagues."
From the looks of it, she might have just started dating or was at the flirting stage. That explained why she was
shy and timid.
| smiled. "If you like him, then just pursue him bravely. A brave woman is the most attractive."
Thalia quickly lifted her head and explained to me, "You got the wrong idea, Mrs. Grant. I'm not-"
"You don't have to explain. | know." | let out an ambiguous smile, then patted her shoulder and walked into the
elevator.
It was beautiful to see a woman in love.
After entering the elevator, | pushed the button to the floor where Theo's office was.
As soon as | walked out of the elevator, | saw Keith walking over with files in his arms. He looked atwith a
strange expression. "You're here, Mrs. Grant."
| nodded, finding it a little weird.
1 did not think too much and asked, "Is
Theo in the office?"

Keith nodded. "He is." I did not think too much about it and walked toward Theo's office.
Usually, I would not knock on the door, hence I did not knock now either.
When | went in and saw Theo buttoning his shirt in front of his desk, | froze.
Hearing movements, he did not even lift his head and coldly said, "Get lost."
Sensing the temperature dropping in the office, | helplessly smiled. "Who made you angry? Why are you so
pissed?"
Hearing my voice, he stopped buttoning his shirt. When he raised his head to look at me, the coldness on his
face dispersed considerably. He slowly revealed a smile." Why did you suddenly cover? Didn't you say that «
you were going to visit Munchkin?"
