So, the next day, Bella saw Mike at his workstation.
He looked completely different from his disheveled state the day before when he was being chased around. Now, he was dressed in a sharp suit, and his hair was meticulously groomed.
He now looked more like a professional working man than a college student.
“Good morning.”
When Bella passed by, she greeted him, and Mike responded in a voice only the two of them could hear.
With a light heart, Bella lifted the corners of her mouth into a smile and left.
Mike kept his gaze fixed on her retreating figure. He was unsure of what he was looking at.
On Elisa's side, it seemed like it had been a long time since she had such a hearty drink and truly relaxed.
The following day was a rare occasion to indulge in a lie-in. By the time she got out of bed, it was already nine o'clock.
Gareth was preparing breakfast.
After hastily freshening up, Elisa descended the stairs to see Gareth, clad in an apron, preparing breakfast. She found herself at a loss to describe her feelings.
It was quite strange, but there was absolutely no disgust from her end.
“Good morning.”
Gareth looked at Elisa, a gentle smile reflected in his eyes.
Elisa could not help but respond with a “Good morning.”
Gareth gestured to her. “Come sit down and wait for breakfast.”
Elisa clutched her jacket, and as she snapped back to reality, she wanted to refuse.
“No, I still have to go to work.”
Gareth shrugged his shoulders. “Well, you're already late. It's only for a day. You're the boss, so no one's going to criticize you.”
