With that confirmation, Nora grew even more confused.

“What on earth is Elias’s girlfriend after?”

If she and Elias had finally gotten together after having a mutual crush, why would she start cheating on him right after they started dating?

Acting as if nothing was out of the ordinary, Nathan made a gesture for them to dismiss. Everyone got the hint, quietly packing their things and leaving the room, glancing back repeatedly as they went.

Colin returned to his desk with his laptop and was immediately grabbed by the arm by a colleague before he could even sit down.

He turned his head to see the person say, “Hey, Colin, what’s the deal with the boss and Dr. Hayes?”
