Unable to accept being ignored, Raina softly called out, "Sir, I brought you lunch."
In spite of the confusion she felt, her smile shone brightly. She had obviously practiced smiling.
Vania began scoring Raina's performance once more. This time, she gave Raina's acting an even higher score.
Raina was certainly talented. Anyone who could continue smiling despite feeling intense shock was absolutely suited to be an actress.
Although Hanson could hear Raina, since he was not deaf, he still ignored her and continued to say to Vania, "I'm starving, darling. Feed me."
Raina was rendered speechless.
No matter how mentally strong one was, no one could keep their cool upon hearing that.
Was he really Hanson Luke, the incredible company president?
If memory served her right, when she handed him some documents that morning, he had roared and shouted at her until she left.
She must have been hallucinating to think he was speaking in a soft, loving voice.
Vania placed the cutlery in his hands. "There are three pairs of eyes here. Now is not a good time."
Her words were explicitly pointing out the presence of a third wheeler in the room.
He refused to take the cutlery and coldly shot a look at Raina while his smile vanished. "Take your food and scram."
He was now speaking in the same tone as he did that morning during Raina's first meeting with him.
It snapped her back to reality.
Today was her first day at work, and she had specifically put on a sensual outfit for the day.
When she found out there were documents waiting for the president's signature, she grabbed them and delivered them to his office even though the other secretaries all jeered and sneered at her.
At first, he only frowned as he asked her to put the documents on his desk.
Her perfume was too harsh on his nose.
However, she did not want to miss a chance to get close to him. Thus, she pulled her collar down and strutted over to him. "Any other others, sir?"
She had spoken in a slow, raspy voice that invited him to have his way with her.
She was confident in her approach as she had done the same thing several times before, and she had always succeeded.
This was not Hanson's first time encountering such a situation though. In fact, this was one of the most common tricks used on him.
He had instantly flung all the documents at her and roared, "Get out!"
She had nonchalantly shrugged and slowly strode out of the office.
It was his first time meeting someone so dismissive of him that he exploded in anger.
Throughout the entire morning, she acted as if she was not the culprit for his anger and kept thinking of her next step in getting close to him.
Delivering lunch to him was her latest plan.
Starting at Raina who was blanking out, Hanson darkly demanded, "Did you not hear me? Scram."
There was audibly more anger in his voice this time.
Finally, Raina snapped out of her thoughts. This time, she felt some fear rise in her from the way he spoke and hurriedly walked toward the exit of the office.
"Take away what you brought," he angrily called out from behind her.
She swiftly jogged back to grab the tray of food and dashed out of the room.
The other secretaries were whispering to each other outside the office. When they saw her walking out with an untouched tray of food, they burst out laughing. "Oh, did your plan to deliver food fail?"
"How would it ever succeed? Mrs. Luke is inside after all."
