Melinda's gaze fell on their holding hands. Her gaze focused for a moment and quickly looked down.
As if seen nothing, she walked towards Phillip.
It forced Ann to let go of the hand that was holding Phillip's.
Ann felt her hand suddenly empty. She lowered her head with her palm empty, as if the warmth of his hand was still there.
However, now she was unable to approach.
Phillip saw Ann standing quietly aside with lowered head and eyelids, looking lonely.
He frowned and was about to speak, but Melinda stopped him.
"Phillip, you haven't gone home for a long time. Your grandfather has been talking about you all this time. And I haven't seen Carson and Jackson for a long time."
Phillip's gaze was still on Ann aside and nodded lightly.
"I understand. Let the driver send Carson and Jackson back home today."
Melinda furrowed her brows and felt a little unsatisfied.
"What do you mean by sending Carson and Jackson back? No matter how busy the work is, you can't always live outside. Your health will be affected after a long time. You should go back together!"
Phillip pursed his lips. When he raised his head, he saw Ann open the office door, trying to leave quietly. He was irritated by her actions, so he strode over and grabbed Ann's hand that was holding the door.
"Where do you want to go?"
Phillip's tone was a little tense. A person like him who had always been well-prepared now suddenly had rare nervous and uneasy feelings.
Ann felt the gaze behind staring at her. She pursed her lips and winked at him playfully.
"Mrs. Moore wants to talk to you. It's improper for me to be here. Besides, I still have work to do."
Phillip squinted at her suspiciously.
"Really?"
He didn't want to introduce her to his family so early because he was afraid that she would run away.
Sometimes, this woman was as timid as a turtle. She only dared to stick her head out carefully. Once she sensed any movement, she would immediately shrink herself into the turtle shell.
