Perfect CEO

Patrick had already finished his meal. He looked at the time and said, “I'm going to take a thirty-minute nap. Please remember to wake me up at half-past one.”

He proceeded to stand up and leave.

Gwendolyn was left sitting all alone on the most comfortable seat available. She was thoroughly enjoying the delicious food.

The only problem was that she could feel everyone around her staring at her. When she turned her head to look, they all retracted their gazes and pretended that they were not looking at her.

Gwendolyn continued to eat her food while keeping her head lowered. The staff cafeteria at Lowen Group served very good food. It was probably even better than a five-star restaurant.

To her, every single dish here was delicious. As she ate her food, a figure suddenly sat down beside her.

Gwendolyn slowly lifted her head up, only to see Liam smiling at her.

“Ms. Ashton, is the food here appetizing?” he asked.

Gwendolyn quickly chewed and swallowed her food. She then drank a mouthful of fruit juice.

“Mr. Derner! You haven't eaten anything yet, right?” she asked.

It seemed that Gwendolyn and Liam were the only ones who arrived late. Patrick was also late, but since he was the CEO, he did not need to line up. Because of him, Gwendolyn also did not need to line up for food.

Liam nodded. “I'm always the last one to leave the office. I'm used to it by now.”

Gwendolyn lowered her head and continued eating. Liam looked at her as she stuffed her face eagerly. It seemed that she really liked the food here.

A smile flitted across Liam's face. It's not often that Mr. Lowen adds another table in his office.

Everyone in the company believed that Gwendolyn would become the CEO's wife one day.

Her colleagues were all super jealous of her.

Liam could not deny that he felt the same way because he observed that Patrick treated Gwendolyn differently. Therefore, he wanted to get into Gwendolyn's good books as well.

“Ms. Ashton, there's also some ice cream over there. You should try them. They're Haagen-Dazs ice cream,” Liam suggested.

Gwendolyn turned her head to look. The food that she ate just now was a little greasy. Besides, she was also craving something cold. And so, she got up and walked toward the dessert section of the cafeteria.

A group of female colleagues was lining up to get some ice cream. When they saw her coming, they all made way for her.

One of them said, “Ms. Ashton! You first!”

Gwendolyn had never been treated like this before. She was stunned for a moment before politely saying to them, “Thank you!”

She opened the fridge and took out a box of ice cream. Then, she walked back to her seat while the others looked at her.

After sitting down, Gwendolyn proceeded to speak while eating the ice cream.

She said, “Mr. Derner, I feel like my colleagues in Lowen Group are very kind. They seem to look after me.”

They're so courteous that they even let me cut the line to grab some ice cream. They're so nice!

Liam almost spat out the food in his mouth. He quickly drank some soup before replying, “Yeah, everyone in Lowen Group is very kind.”
