The light of the morning sun shone into the room through the floor-to-ceiling window and on the floor.
Rosiley took a bite of the scrambled egg and looked at the man opposite her.
Sachin sat silhouetted against the light. His figure was upright and his facial features strongly marked.
As he drank the milk, he focused on reading the newspaper.
“You should focus when you are having a meal. Don't be distracted, or you'll suffer from indigestion.”
Rosiley muttered discontentedly. The man opposite her looked up at her with a smile.
"It was my mother who said it.” Rosiley added. An elder's words might be convincing.
Sachin folded the newspaper and put it aside. Then, he smiled and said, "Since Mom said so, I have to listen to her."
Rosiley narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you making fun of me?"
"No,’ Sachin smiled. His eyes were bright with pleasure.
Rosiley angrily glared at him and placed some egg on his plate. She said, "This is delicious. Have a taste."
Sachin looked at the golden scrambled egg and then looked up at Rosiley who was looking at him expectantly.
Thus, he gently took a bite of the egg.
"How is it?" Rosiley asked anxiously.
He tasted it carefully, and after a long time, he said under her eager gaze, “It's delicious."
Rosiley started smiling, her eyes curving into crescent moon-like shapes. She said proudly, "I cooked it.”
Sachin smiled as he looked at her, and his eyes were filled with pampering.
"I am indeed a good wife,’ Rosiley said and smiled.
"Yes, you are a good wife.”
Rosiley was happier to win his praise than to win a lottery.
She was so happy and then she drank the milk fast.
"Slow down." Sachin looked at her dotingly and helplessly.
This morning was their private moment, which was filled with laughter and happiness.
As soon as Rosiley entered the Media Department of TEG, she was told that Ms. Su was looking for her.
She frowned and wondered what Melissa was going to do.
Yayoi warned worriedly, "Rosiley, be careful. She failed to fire you, so she must be grudging. She might have come up with some evil idea to target you.”
Rosiley smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry. I will play it by ear."
Afterwards, she turned around. Her face darkened and her eyes turned cold.
Some people's ambition never died until there was no way out.
In Ms. Su's office.
Rosiley was standing at the desk, while Melissa was looking at the files absorbedly as if there was no one else present.
Ever since Rosiley came here, Melissa hadn't looked up at the former at all as if Rosiley wasn't here.
They seemed to be in a contest. If Melissa did not look up at Rosiley, Rosiley would definitely not take the initiative to start a conversation.
But now, it seemed that Melissa was just humiliating Rosiley in this way.
Rosiley bit her lips and stared coldly at Melissa who was focused on the files. Then, she suddenly turned around and strode towards the door.
"Stop!"
Just as she reached out to open the door, Melissa shouted behind her.
Rosiley withdrew her hand with a sneer and turned to face Melissa's gloomy face.
"Did I allow you to leave?" Melissa asked coldly.
Rosiley sneered, "Ms. Su, I'm very busy. Just say what you have to say. Don't waste my time."
