Drover looked up at me, then stood up and greeted me with a smile. "I didn't expect the documents to be personally delivered by you." He sounded surprised, and his handsome face was filled with astonishment as well.
I did not know why he had such a big reaction, but I did not ask any more questions. I merely wanted to complete the task quickly. I handed the document Theo gave me to Drover. "These are the documents. Please have a look at them.”
"Alright. You've worked hard, Mrs. Grant."
Every time he referred to me as Mrs. Grant, it made me even more uncomfortable. I pursed my lips and said slowly, "Mr.
Drover, I was hoping that you'd refer to me as Miss Lane at work. It's more appropriate."
Hearing this, Drover was stunned for a moment before smiling brightly. "Will do, Miss Lane."
He was grinning from ear to ear. "Please sit, Miss Lane. I'll have to have a close look at these."
"Sure."
I sat down across from him and looked around Drover’s office while he looked at the files.
As I turned to the side, I noticed something that looked like a display screen, which also looked a lot like a surveillance system.
I understood in an instant that the scanner at the door of his office was probably connected to this display screen. Drover could clearly see what the person who
came in was carrying, just like when one went through the security check at the airport. He could keep people with bad intentions out of the door.
This studio was a whole new world for me, and it surely opened up my eyes.
"Miss Lane.”
Drover’s voice sounded in my ears, and I quickly regained my senses and looked at him. "Do you have a question, Mr. Drover?'
