A Moment in Destiny

All three of them were taken aback as if they hadn’t expected Secretary Sylvie would answer them so wickedly.

At once, no one talked anymore and they all lowered their heads and began to eat.

Maisy fiddled with the food on her plate and said with some regret and yearning, “Although, the handsome and cool President has been snatched away by someone, since that person is you, it is nothing to be unhappy about. Sylvie, no matter what, I support you both. You must do your best!”

Hearing what Maisy said, the other two agreed and said, “Yes! You must try your best! Although the president is a bit serious, he is a good boss. If you both are together, we support you!”

“Yes! We support you!”

“Thank you!” She hadn’t expected them to say like this and also supported her to be together with Marley. Having their sudden support, she could only say thank you.

She just had a few bites when her phone rang. Sylvie hurriedly picked up her phone. Seeing Marley’s name, she was a little surprised and answered it, “Hello!”

“Bring me a meal!” After he finished saying this in a deep voice, he hung up the phone.

She looked at the phone and only got back to her senses after a long time. Then she hurriedly had a few more bites and then stood up. “I finished eating, you guys continue. I have to go to do something!”

After saying this, she went to pack an exquisite meal which was considered as balance since there were meat and vegetables and carried it upstairs.

“Oh! Their relationship really improved!” Maisy sighed.

Aila’s gaze turned towards Sylvie’s departing back. A faint gleam of light shone in her eyes with a hint of loneliness.

Sylvie carried the lunch box into the elevator and quickly reached the top floor. When she knocked on Marley’s office door, his head was buried in his notebook.

Seeing him not able to go to lunch during the noon break, she realized it might have been because he skipped work just now in order to take her to shop for bracelets, thus delaying some of his working affairs. So, he was this busy right now.

“Eat first!” Sylvie walked in, closed the door and then took the lunch box to the coffee table. She helped him to arrange it, put properly the chopsticks and then stood up to pour him a cup of warm water.

Marley raised his head and glanced at the lunch she brought. His thin lips opened a bit and said regretfully, “I don’t eat ginger. Help me to pick out the shredded ginger!”

“Uh!” Sylvie was startled and nodded. Actually, he could have picked it out by himself as he ate, but he still wanted her to pick it out for him. What a rich Young Master!

Seeing her impatience, he raised his eyebrows, “What? You don’t want?”

“No.” Sylvie replied stiffly.

“That’s enough already. Put it there and answer me a question!” He sighed.

“What?” She didn’t stop but continued to pick the shredded ginger while looked at him.

“Today morning you heard at the finance department that there was a problem of false accounts in the procurement of the main project. What do you think of it?”

Sylvie was taken aback for a moment and pursed her lips, “This is the matter of the decision maker. I am just a secretary, President!”
