At that moment, Xante’s secretary knocked on the door.
“Come in,” said Xante after snapping out of her trance.
The secretary came in and presented a file. “Miss Xante, these are the documents you’ve asked for.”
“Thanks. You can put it there,” said Xante with a nod.
The secretary did as she was told. “One more thing, Miss Xante… Mister Sunny has come to visit you again. Should I
let him in?”
Xante pinched the bridge of her nose. “Might as well.”
She knew Sunny would stay outside her office until she let him in, and that would leave a bad impression on Xante’s
staff.

A minute later, Sunny swaggered into Xante’s office and sat on the chair in front of her desk. “Xante, it’s nearly
lunchtime. Where shall we eat later?”
Xante looked at him expressionlessly. “I didn’t agree to have lunch with you.”
“Well, you’re going with me whether you like it or not.”
Xante raised her eyebrow threateningly. “Are you ordering me?”
Sunny frowned. His voice faltered as he said, “I went through a lot of trouble to come out today, and I have to get
back soon. Won’t you please have lunch with me?”
“Go eat it yourself. I’m busy.”
Sunny stood up, walked over to her, and put both of his arms on either side of her chair, effectively trapping her.
He might be young, but he was so much taller than her.
He glared at her from above and said, “It’s just lunch! It won’t take up much of your time. Xante, don’t make me
get down on my knees to beg you.”
Xante could not help but laugh at the way Sunny was glaring and pleading with her. “You seem more interested in
eating me than eating lunch.”
Sunny started blushing, and his gaze darted around. “No… I swear I’m only thinking about lunch. I know you won’t
let me do anything more than that.”
Xante tapped his head with the file in her hand. “It’s good that you know that.”
Sunny blinked. “Is this your way of agreeing you’ll go to lunch with me?”
Xante nodded reluctantly. “I’m sort of hungry too, so I’ll finish up my work after lunch.”

Xante was a little stunned. She turned her face away, shoved him off, and stood up. “It’s only lunch. I don’t get why
you’re so happy. Let’s go.”
Sunny scratched his head and followed Xante out of the office.
Since Xante’s office was not that far from Aaron’s, the moment she stepped out, she saw Aaron standing at his
doorway staring at the empty secretary spot that Annie used to occupy. She had not been to work for a long time.
Xante walked over and waved her hand in front of his face. “Hello, Earth to Aaron. Do you want to go to lunch with
us?”
Aaron snapped back to the present. He looked at Xante first before looking at Sunny. He then shook his head. “No,
thanks. I don’t want to be a third wheel, so I’ll go to the cafeteria later. You have fun with your little lover boy.”
Xante rolled her eyes at him. “You know you could’ve just stopped at ‘no, thanks’.”
After that, she walked toward the elevator with Sunny following behind her.
Aaron gave the empty secretary spot one last meaningful look before going back into his office.
