Maja’s eyes were deep and thoughtful just as the elevator doors slid open.
Murray, with his arm around the lady’s waist, said, “We’re at the top floor now. We might run into the big
boss of this company. Brace yourself. We’re just here to deliver lunch, then we’re out of here.”
Zoey’s workstation was right on this floor. At this moment, all eyes on the floor were on them since it
was break time.
The lady cooled down, vented a few complaints, and followed behind Murray.
Zoey spotted Murray right away and hurried over.
“Murray.”
Just as Murray was about to respond, Zoey turned to Maja.
“Mr. Pennyfeather, I’ve put the documents you need for the afternoon on the conference room table.
Once you’ve reviewed them, I’ll distribute them to upper management.”
Maja nodded, catching a glimpse of the lady’s face turning sour and Murray’s embarrassment.
He frowned nervously, “Zoey, she’s your friend?”
Zoey quickly introduced, “This is our company’s CEO, my direct boss. Murray, did you guys come up
together?”
Thinking about the possibility that Maja might have overheard his conversation with his mom and even
seeing him getting cozy with Evelyn at the art exhibition, Murray felt uneasy.
Even the lady felt awkward and stayed silent.
Zoey felt the strange tension and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
Maja laughed, “Nothing. Zoey, is this your fiancé?”
Zoey nodded sweetly, a bit embarrassed. After all, it was Murray’s first time delivering lunch to her
workplace.
“Yes, Mr. Pennyfeather. If they’re bothering anyone, I’ll have them leave right away.”
“No need.”
Maja’s gaze landed on the lady. Her present embarrassment was in stark contrast to her earlier
bravado.
She hadn’t expected this young woman to be the CEO of this huge company, and she had even
overheard her belittling Zoey.
She felt a bit uneasy, knowing Zoey was a competent worker, and her son hadn’t completely won over
Evelyn yet. Whether he could become the son–in–law of the Farley family was still up in the air..
So, she decided to keep Zoey on her side, which was why she agreed to accompany them today. She
wanted to use this opportunity to make Zoey more reliant on her son.
But now, with Maja present, her plan couldn’t be carried out, and she wanted to leave as soon as
possible.
Maja, however, said, “Let them go to the lounge nearby, don’t stand here. I could use a cup of coffee.”
Zoey immediately led Murray and the lady to the lounge.
As the lady sat down, she couldn’t help but look around.
She was a country girl in her younger years, and it was only when she married a man who was
educated in the countryside that she had the chance to change her destiny and move to Greenfield.
But without proper education, finding a job in Greenfield was no easy feat. Though opportunities were
plenty, they were only for those who were capable. Luckily, she had an exceptional son who got into
Solstice College.
Their family finally bought a house, having just paid off all the mortgage recently. Everyone was looking
forward to having Zoey join the family. She could help take care of them. However, their son got a
promotion and became a manager, and even met the daughter of his boss.
The lady shifted her gaze, softly asking Murray, “That woman, she heard our conversation. Is that going
to be a problem?”
Murray also felt uncomfortable. He still had feelings for Zoey. He was just a bit shaken, but he never
truly wanted to leave Zoey.
He admitted he was dazzled by the places Evelyn took him to, but every time he faced Zoey, he would
feel guilty.
Zoey was a good girl, always up early for school. She was always working, and even doing face masks
at the airport just so they could have a cozy little home.
Sometimes he was ashamed of his wavering but couldn’t resist the allure Evelyn brought.
Now, the presence of Penny was like a ticking time bomb. If Penny disclosed this matter to Zoey, his
relationship with Zoey would definitely end.
And he had already introduced Zoey to his friends. If Zoey made his infidelity public, he would feel
embarrassed.
He knew he should feel guilty towards Zoey, but whenever he thought of what Zoey might do, he would
feel irritated.
Meanwhile, Zoey served Maja a cup of coffee, looking a bit embarrassed.
“Mr. Pennyfeather, I’ll go chat with them.”
After all, she was still a young woman, and the man was someone she had been in love with for seven
years.
Maja felt a bit sorry for her but could only continue to caution her.
“It seems your future mother–in–law isn’t too fond of you?”
“A bit. Because I used to work too much and didn’t have time to communicate with them, but I’ll change
that.”
Her eyes were so bright that Maja couldn’t bear to see them dim.
She opened her mouth, struggling to say, “I saw your fiancé at the art exhibition. He was with another
woman.”
She thought Zoey would understand with that hint.
But Zoey just laughed, “That’s his female client. Murray works in sales. He deals with these clients
every day, sometimes he even needs to entertain them to secure orders. It’s just the way it is.”
Love often blinded women.
