Chapter 195

Maximilian sat down on the sofa, opened the lunchbox lid, and took out the dishes and rice bowl. "A single serving. Have you already eaten?"

Katniss nodded. "Yeah, I ate before coming."

Then Katniss began to look around the office. She had never been to Maximilian's office building before.

A few seconds later, Maximilian softly said, "Oh."

He started eating in silence.

The style was identical to the decor of Golden Crest Estates. Katniss guessed it was the work of the same interior designer.

In less than a minute, the door was pushed open again, and a female secretary brought in a cup of tea. "Ms. Manners, your tea."

Katniss casually replied, "Okay, thank you."

"It's not Miss Manners, it's Mrs. Hamilton." Maximilian stopped eating and glanced at the secretary. "This is my wife. In the future, when she comes, bring her directly to my office."

"Yes, Mr. Hamilton, Mrs. Hamilton." The secretary gave Katniss a complicated look, then got up and left, closing the door behind her.

A few minutes later, there was another knock on the office door.

"Come in."

The secretary entered with a lunchbox. "Mr. Hamilton, your pre-ordered lunch has arrived."

Maximilian didn't look up and said indifferently, "Just leave it there."

Lunch?

If no food was delivered, is this what he usually eats?

Katniss turned around and happened to catch the secretary's quick glance at her before she left the office.

Curious, Katniss asked, "Maximilian, is this your work lunch?"

Maximilian, who was eating, looked up at her, then glanced at the lunchbox on the desk, and explained, "Just leave it there. The secretary orders lunch for me every day." "Okay."
