Glenna had just realized that Declan was really waiting for her downstairs. She could not bear to go through the reports anymore because she could not figure out Declan’s goal in coming here.
‘He’s not going to choose to let Deirdre find out the truth, nor is he going to change anything. Is he here to convince me, then? Am I really that important?’
At that thought, Glenna patted her face and suppressed the ineffable feeling in her chest. She headed to the restroom to wash her face.
It was already time to get off work by the time she returned to the office. A group of colleagues were discussing the dinner location and asked for Glenna’s opinion.
She shook her head and said, “Count me out. I still didn’t get around to amending the project, so I’m going to put in the extra hours for a while. You guys can go ahead”
‘You shouldn’t trouble yourself too much either. If you really can’t finish it, you can do it tomorrow morning. We will only need to hand it in next week anyway, so there is no rush.”
“Hmm.” Glenna smiled. She just wanted to hide from Declan.
When everyone else had left, she amended and saved the documents that she had managed to go through, and by the time she got up, it was already dark outside.
Glenna put on her coat and got into the elevator head downstairs. She got out of the elevator and saw the man at the lobby’s entrance at one glance. He was dressed in a suit and had a tall, slender figure. His fingers were frozen pink, and the cold-toned complexion of his delicate facial features was stained red from the cold. She could see it clearly.
Declan stood upright when he saw Glenna. “You’re here, just in time. We can head to dinner right away. It’s just that the dessert that I got you has already gotten cold.”
Glenna’s lips were trembling, and she was having a hard time speaking. Declan said smilingly, You’re not going to go back on your word after promising me, right?”
