Inished to the conference room and asked, “A–Are you working at Brightwave Group, Zack? I’m really sorry. My colleague didn’t tell me that you were here. I would’ve been here micheleri you had sent me a text sooner.”
Inoticed that Zack was sitting in the middle of the group, and 1 knew that he held a high position in Brightwave Group

“This is currently the most famous milkshake out there. I lined up for it awhile back, but couldn’t even get one.”
“It’s easier to talk to a bellow young person. There isn’t any gap in communication, and we share similar interests.”
“You’re very thoughtful, Ms. Gem. I haven’t seen these snacks in any other shops before.”

However, Leonard was too blind and stupid. That was why he completely believed what Lily had said. “If you’re going to talk about the collaboration, you should do it properly, Eva What’s the point of deing these things?
