The Returning Ex

In the afternoon, Sophia prepared the desserts and milk tea she had bought for John and Zack.

When she went to send some to Zack, she happened to see Dylan.

The two ran into each other.

Dylan was coming out of the elevator with other employees. He nodded at her when he saw her.

On the other hand, she was a bit flustered because she had the milk tea and desserts in her hands.

Because he had already seen it, it did not seem polite to not give him some as well.

After she left Zack’s place, she went to the refrigerator in the tea room to grab another portion.

Good thing she had bought more.

Thus, she went to give some to Dylan.

He was inside his office verifying the data on a document.

Sophia pushed open the door and smiled at him. “I bought this earlier at noon. There were an extra two. You can have one.”

She went over and placed it on his desk.

He was surprised but he thanked her immediately.

She waved her hand. “No need. I’m more worried that you won’t like it. Have some. I won’t bother you.”

She was going to leave when Dylan spoke, “Did you come here behind John’s back?”
