It was obvious that he was a frequent visitor.
The man in the pink suit looked more coquettish than women, with his peachy cheeks and almond-shaped eyes. He cast flirtatious glances at every woman passing him by.
What was surprising was that the pink suit didn't feel awkward or feminine on him. Instead, it suited him. He had been like this since birth.
Francis walked straight to Andrew's office and sat down casually on the sofa.
"Ah, it's unexpected that Andrew would have snacks, which are girls' favorite. What a surprise! I'll enjoy myself first," Francis said, raising his eyebrows when he saw snacks on the table.
Francis was a playboy so he knew what kind of snacks were favored by girls.
He had bought them himself on many occasions.
Technically speaking, Francis was a dutiful lover. When he was in a relationship, he would treat his girl pretty well. Whether it was reasonable or not, as long as she wanted it, he would satisfy her demands.
However, he also was the most ruthless lover. Once the relationship ended, he would get away from her as soon as possible, and treat the girl like a complete stranger.
Feeling bored, Francis picked up some snacks and began to eat them. Soon he found himself addicted to them.
"Wow, they're delicious. Eh, famous brands. Good. Looks like Andrew is fond of these," Francis commented while he was eating.
He didn't notice Ashley because she lay on the secluded sofa on the other side and played with her cellphone, wearing earphones.
But Ashley had noticed him coming in because Francis made a lot of noise, which couldn't be ignored. She poked her head sneakily, casting a furtive glance at him, and then cowered quickly.
She couldn't help wondering, 'Andrew said no one would come to his office. But who is this guy? How did he come in?'
She sunk lower on the sofa, trying not to be found.
Luckily, the sofa she was lying on was in line with the one on which Francis was sitting, so if she didn't make any noise, Francis would never find her.
Thanking her lucky stars for not being found, she felt relieved. But the next moment she turned round, she found that a large shining face appeared in front of her.
Staring at him dumbfounded for several seconds, Ashley cried out.
This made Francis cry out too.
Both their cries reverberated through the entire office.
Seconds later, Ashley realized she shouldn't have shouted.
So she punched him on his eye, and stood up, watching his movements warily, "Who the hell are you?"
Seeing that it was a woman, Francis didn't try to defend himself, so he was unprepared and ended up with a shiner on his eye. Now he didn't even care about her watchful gaze.
