"Don't bother, Catherine." Linda felt embarrassed, "I've already had dinner."
But Catherine took out the cake. "Whether you have dinner or not, you must have some cake. Sit down, it’ll be ready soon."
Catherine said with a smile while cutting the cake, "The cake tastes very good, don't worry."
"Linda, how old are you? 24 or 25? "
"24."
"You are so young. You are ten years younger than me." Catherine sighed softly and suddenly felt that she was old but she hadn't dated anyone yet. She wasted all her youth on Ivan.
She felt pitiful but had no regrets.
Catherine took the cake to the living room, gently put it on the table, and sang the birthday song. "Linda, let's start to celebrate your birthday!"
"Thanks." Linda was emotional. Her nose was sour, and her eyes were a little moist.
After washing her hands, Catherine took out the clothes from the bag. "I picked them for you after work, do you like them? I tried to find something that fit your style.”
Linda's heart gently thudded as she looked at the fabric. She raised her eyes and asked, "This is very expensive, right?"
"It's OK. It was not expensive. Have a look and see if you like it."
For Catherine, it was not expensive, but for Linda, it could be sky-high.
"You don't have to buy me clothes." She felt guilty. "You have been good enough to me."
"Let's make a wish and cut the cake. I bought it. So just accept it. Birthdays only happen once a year." Catherine was in a good mood tonight. She was more like a big sister than a previous boss.
"How are you doing with Finnley recently?" She asked about relationships, just like a friend.
