Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 931

For a moment, it was hilarious in the conference room.

Some of the staff took selfies with the coffee and lunch and posted them on their Facebook pages. Some couldn't wait to taste the food. And some just shared the jolly moment.

Maisie came into the conference room in the hustle and bustle. The staff burst into laughter and began making fun of her, "Oh dear Maisie, we've got a fancy meal today and witnessed Mr. Cantillo showing off his affection on you!"

Maisie had been single for many years. She had a relationship with Ezra back then but they kept it from the public, which meant she had never been made fun of on the love things. So, she blushed.

"Well..." she tried to explain but didn't know where to start.

She literally couldn't tell them that she and Ezra was actually not a happy and loving couple as they saw, or she literally couldn't tell them that their marriage was fake, either.

One of the co-workers came over to take her hand and pointed at the other takeaway food on the table, "Here, Maisie. This one is custom-made for you with your name on it. It must be much more delicious, but we get it."

Maisie was pulled to the conference table and David came in behind her back.

Then the co-workers began making fun of David, "Mr. Brennan, this one is for you. Look at how lucky you are! "

"Hush!" David rolled his eyes and looked disdainful. He stepped forward to pick up the meal and coffee then turned around to leave. He took Julian's lunch as well and brought it to his office.

Fuck the brother-in-law! He hated it and took it as a burning shame on him!

Then, only Maisie and the other co-workers were left in the conference room. Most of the time, Maisie wasn't much of a talker herself but everyone knew she had a good temper. So, they invited her, "Would you like to join us for lunch?"

Maisie sat down with complicated feelings. She was annoyed with Ezra now. He bought lunch for everyone in the office. And she couldn't explain it clearly though she hoped to.

She could tell from their faces that they thought they were a very sweet couple.

She opened the lunch box and the co-worker sitting next to her cried out, "Whoa! It's surely much more delicious than ours!"

"No, it isn't," said Maisie, and she found nothing special on it.

"I guess, these are Maisie's favorite dishes." one of the elder co-workers said firmly as if she had been there. Then she looked forward to Maisie's reply.

"Indeed!" said Maisie, nodding her head.

She wasn't good at lying and it was true that the dishes in the lunch box were her favorite, and that was why her lunch box looked different from the others.

Again, the staff burst out laughing, which embarrassed Maisie more. She lowered her head to eat and tried to finish eating as soon as possible. Then, she got out of the conference room.

She returned to the office and wanted to call Ezra. She wanted to ask him why he did that but she just thought he would give her crap. She was tired of it and gave up making the call.

Almost everyone in the company heard Ezra had bought lunch for her and all the office workers on the top floor right before they clocked out in the afternoon. And most staff in the Hughes Group agreed they were deeply in love with each other.

Maisie felt deeply troubled and annoyed when she heard the news from the young secretary. What made it worse was that David came to her office when she was working overtime.

"What's up?" said Maisie, confused.

"Have you read the messages in the company chat group?" said David, still looking despised.

"I've been busy all day long. I haven't got a minute to read it yet." Maisie said and looked at the pile of documents and papers beside her desk.
