Did she not like the food at the cafeteria? Why did she order so little? Frederick wondered.

Frederick stroked her hair and answered, "Okay!"

Then he picked up the handset and made his order. At the same time, he also instructed his assistant to prepare a plate of cut fruits. After taking a glance at Alicia who was sitting on the sofa, Frederick turned around and went to the coffee bar to make coffee.

When he was at it, he asked, "Do you not like the food here?"

She seemed excited and wanted to eat anything that was available at the cafeteria the last time. But it seemed that she had lost her appetite nowadays.

Scrolling through her phone, Alicia casually answered, "No, the food here is one of the best I've ever had!"

As she was replying to a text message, she couldn't help but pause for a short while. In fact, in Alicia's opinion, the food is great, but she would always end up losing her appetite whenever she went to the cafeteria. When she first joined the company, there would be so many people gathering around her that she couldn't even join the queue. When I finally got to the front of the queue, it would either be leftovers or the dishes that did not suit her preferences, so she did not feel comfortable having her meals there.

Recently, the situation had gotten better. But still, even when she visited the cafeteria, there were always people who would come over to snatch her meals and even take her seat, which annoyed her a lot. However, since she was a newcomer, she decided not to make a fuss over these trivial things. But of course, grievances would arise after countless such experiences.

Since she decided not to complain about it, then she would not complain about it now. Since she had made the decision then to accept the consequences, she would bear with whatever came along now. It was just how she was as a person.

So she looked down and continued to reply to her text messages.

Frederick put down his coffee and lowered his head. He saw that one of the text messages that she had sent out wrote, "I'm fine, my boss is busy now, I'm just here waiting for him to give me a lecture but I'm really fine. Thanks for asking!"

"I'm busy at the moment, so I'm not sure. You guys can go ahead without me! Thanks!"

Frederick sat down and immediately pulled her into his arms. He stared at her phone screen and saw that she was texting at least three people at the same time. Not only that, he also realized that Alicia and these people would text each other now and then.
