Alicia was about to suggest that she take her food in, but apparently, Doris had thought ahead and stopped her. As Alicia had already identified the room ahead, she didn't say anything more. "Alright! Thanks!"

"Miss Blanchard, you're welcome."

Doris only left once she watched Alicia go. However, she kept turning back. It wasn't until she heard a pull on the door that she turned back again to make sure, and then she was slightly relieved. Holy sh*t! She had finally done her job!

Looking at the plate in her hand, she was overwhelmed with melancholy. She had ordered whatever was available. The point was, they weren't even her favorite foods. She was on a controlled diet and had already packed her own fruit for lunch.

Amidst her despondency, another equally despondent person pulled open the door of the room beside her.

Their eyes meeting, Chet said, "Come in and eat before you go! What if something else goes wrong?"

What he meant was that if Doris went back, she might have to come down again!

Chet was the one who suffered the most! He was halfway through his meal when Frederick dragged him down, but only when he came down did he realize that Frederick didn't need his company for lunch. He had taken Chet as a chaperone. However, he left Chet behind before Chet had a chance to eat. Not to mention that Chet couldn't leave!

Sure enough, it was tough being Frederick's personal assistant!

Giving Chet a sympathetic look and a nod of agreement, Doris then walked in with her plate.
