Chapter 480
This man was a glutton! How could he eat so much? That was two dishes and a soup–enough food for two days, gone in one sitting!
Aveline grew even angrier.
Tomorrow, she would definitely change the password for the building’s
elevator and replace the lock on the door! She had plenty of money now, so she could afford it!
Fuming, Aveline stormed into the kitchen, expecting a mess. To her surprise, she found the pots of food still kept warm. Her anger turned to surprise. She let out a sarcastic laugh, grabbed the warmed food, and began eating. She was really hungry.
The next day.
Aveline watched the locksmith change the lock and then updated the elevator’s password before heading to work.
Maria arrived early today but looked exhausted.
Aveline asked curiously, “What’s wrong with you? Pulled an all–nighter?”
Maria yawned. “You bet. These past couple of days have been so busy, my hormones are all out of whack. I’m starting to feel less fabulous.”
Aveline chuckled. “Then go home and get some rest.”
Maria shook her head, “No need, I can rest here.”
Aveline was speechless, finding Maria’s behavior unbelievable.
She pulled out her chair and sat down, noticing a glass of milk in front of her. She looked up to see Sidney giving her a shy smile.
“got milk with my breakfast, but I’m lactose intolerant. If you don’t mind, you can have it.”
Aveline paused, then said, “Sure, thanks.
Sidney’s eyes lit up. “You’re welcome!”

Just as he turned to leave, Maria walked over, grabbed the milk, and started drinking it. “Perfect timing. I skipped breakfast and my stomach is hurting. I’ll take this.”
Aveline didn’t mind her drinking the milk. “Sure.”
Seeing this, Sidney couldn’t help but glance at Maria, who was now drinking the milk. To his surprise, Maria was also looking at him and even gave him a slight smile.
Sidney felt something was off but couldn’t quite put his finger on it, so he suppressed his doubts.
Today, Aveline needed to visit the construction site. After finishing her tasks, she got up to leave the studio.
Sidney approached her. “Aveline, are you heading to the site? Can I come with you?”
Aveline nodded. “Sure.”
Sidney said, “Wait a moment, I need to grab some documents.”
Aveline waited by the elevator, but soon Sidney returned with an apologetic
look, “Sorry, I can’t go with you. The boss just told me I need to go to a meeting

Aveline was surprised. “So many meetings lately?”
Sidney shrugged. “I don’t know either.”
Aveline replied, “Alright, you go ahead.”
Sidney said, “Take care.”
