Chapter 453 Sneakiness lurking in the shadows

The clay pot on the dining table was still emitting steam with a gurgling sound, and the air was filled with the enticing aroma of chicken broth.

Leah felt immediate regret the moment the words slipped out of her mouth.

That sounds like a tantrum.

Although she was genuinely upset about what Han did to her last night, the tone in which she spoke sounded like she was being coy and dramatic.

Han gave her a sidelong glance and quipped, "Still have the energy to nitpick, do you?"

The ambiguous tone and veiled warning in Han's words silenced Leah instantly, and she lowered her head to eat in silence. It was as if she had been reminded of something she'd rather forget.

"Carlotta, I have a company party tonight and will be camping out. Can you stay at home by yourself?"

Carlotta hung her head dejectedly, her eyes turning red as she said, "Okay, mommy. As long as you can spend more time with me on weekends in the future..."

Leah's heart ached as she saw Cutie's exhausted expression. She quickly put down her utensils, hugged her close, and kissed her. "I promise," she said.

At this moment, she didn't even feel like going to the party anymore.

Serena has been feeling quite down lately, and when she finally had the chance to enjoy herself and have some fun, she knew she had to go all out and stick with it no matter what.

Han frowned and asked, "Where are you going?"

Leah replied vaguely, "Um... just going to hang out together, it's a company gathering, mostly with girls."

She emphasized that it was a gathering of mostly girls, fearing that Han might follow her.

Fortunately, Han didn't say anything, but furrowed his brow and drank his coffee.

Leah felt reassured and went to work.

Today is not particularly busy with official business, as most of the focus is on the internal design competition within the company.

To ensure fairness, Leah also participated in the design competition.

After half a day, the competition came to an end.

When Leah returned to her own office, Serena had already collected all the work from the competition participants and was waiting for her inside.
