Chapter 35 Design Knowledge.

Christina chuckled softly. “It’s all good. Eating these without carbs can be just as satisfying as anything else.”

She offered him her seat and sat beside him. Eating just the food would make them thirsty, so she diligently poured two cups of warm water for the two of them.

Nathaniel had never experienced having a meal with plain water before, and his eyes were drawn to the pink cup. Curiosity bubbled up within him as he wondered if that was the cup Christina usually

used to drink water.

“Eat up.” she urged, putting a piece of meat on his plate.

In response, Nathaniel grunted in acknowledgment and retracted his gaze.

They were sitting so close to each other that if either of them moved their arms, it would cause them to come into contact with each other.

Nathaniel was too eye-catching, so Christina could not help but steal glances at his profile.

He was an exceptionally cultured person, and he ate his food at a leisurely pace. His teeth were grinding, but his mouth stayed closed. Due to his firm pectoral muscles, his broad chest seemed on the brink of bursting through the fabric of his crisp white shirt.

Nathaniel suddenly let out a soft cough, startling Christina so much that she quickly looked away.

Without saying a word, he reached out an arm and picked up the cup before bringing it to his lips and sipping at it.

The rim of the cup smelled faintly of Christina’s lipstick, and when he sipped from it, the water was delightfully sweet.

When Christina discovered he was using her cup and his lips were touching the lipstick stain she had left on it, she said, “You took the wrong cup. That’s mine.”

Nathaniel nonchalantly swept his gaze over the cup. There was no hint of astonishment in his demeanor as he placed the cup aside and remarked. “I don’t like using disposable cups.”

It was clear to her that he had not taken her cup wrongly. Instead, he had deliberately chosen to use her cup.

After they had finished lunch, Christina cleared the table and disposed of the rubbish in the bin before heading back to her office, where she found Nathaniel perusing her design.
