It was not the first time Alicia was at Soaver International, so she was familiar with the place and went straight up to the top floor. She had forgotten to call him in advance as she was in a hurry. She rushed into the office, giggling. "Honey, I'm here to pick you up after work!"

When Alicia looked inside, the office was empty, and she was stunned for a while. The door was open, but why was there no one around? Even the secretary was nowhere in sight.

At this time, the secretary, who had heard the noise, came out from the bathroom. "Madam, why are you here?"

After wiping her wet hands with a napkin, the secretary asked, "What's the matter, Madam? Mr. Frederick got off work early. He just left not long ago!"

She had come in to deliver some documents when she accidentally knocked over other documents on the desk. She didn't realize that the ink of a pen was leaking and she had smeared her hand.

"I see! It's all right. I was just passing by and thought of having a meal with him!" Alicia said.

Alicia rubbed her head, feeling slightly puzzled. She had planned to go shopping with him, and visit her grandmother after that. However, she had overslept and forgot to inform him in advance. So, she got up and came in a hurry. She had been so busy recently that she had become mindless!

Everything was a mess!

Fortunately, she didn't tell Grandma that they would visit her that day in advance. Otherwise, she would be at a complete loss on what to do.

Alicia shook her head and said, "It's all right now. You go ahead, I'll take my leave first!"

Just as she was about to turn around, she caught a glimpse of an exquisite white box beside the table. There was a white bowknot on it, which made it look like a gift box. Alicia looked at it, perplexed. "What's this? Is it for me?" She thought to herself.

Why was it placed on the ground? Did he forget it or did he deliberately hide it in fear that others would see it?

She bent down and picked it up. The secretary was stunned as she shook her head. Had she accidentally knocked that off the table too when she toppled the documents over?

For a moment, she didn't dare to say anything, but her heart was beating nervously in her chest. She hoped it was not something valuable!

Alicia dusted, then opened the box. She saw a bunch of jasmine flowers, which was startling to see for both women. The secretary was confused while Alicia was baffled. She carefully took the flowers out.
