The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1262

Thus, Annie had no choice but to return to her seat. "You've crossed the line this time!"

Aaron smiled and said softly, "Just stay and enjoy the lunch with me."

After that, the waiter brought in one fancy dish after another.

Annie ate without really tasting the food. All she could think about was how to explain what was going on to Marcus.

The restaurant was not that far from Newmoon Group. In fact, it would only take Marcus 15 minutes by car to get there.

Marcus smiled when he saw Annie in the room, but his smile froze when he realized Aaron was inside the room as well. He looked at Aaron, then back at Annie.

"Annie, why are you having a romantic lunch with Mister Aaron?"

Annie smiled awkwardly. "Umm… It might look like a romantic lunch, but I can assure you it's just a casual lunch. Here, have a seat, Marcus. Order whatever you want. It's Mister Aaron's treat today," she explained as she patted the seat next to her.

Marcus chose to believe Annie, but he still felt pressured to be in this kind of setting with Aaron. After all, this was the first time he had ever been so close to his boss. Thus, he bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, Mister Aaron, for the lunch."

After that, he pulled out his chair and sat down.

Aaron smiled warmly while he gracefully cut his steak.

"Marcus, I heard you asked for a half-day leave because something happened to your family?" he asked casually.

Marcus' expression became sheepish. "Umm, well… I…"

Was there anything more embarrassing than being caught red-handed in a lie by the boss?
