Chapter 329

Stephen's voice was filled with amusement as he asked, "Has the afternoon tea been delivered?"

"So it really was you," Tessa said, her tone unreadable as she lowered her gaze

"Did you manage to guess that it was me? Lester treated me to coffee, so I decided to return the favor by treating the company to some afternoon tea. I've never liked owing anyone anything, after all," Stephen replied with a chuckle.

When Stephen last went to Everbright Law Group, he had noticed there were a lot of young people there. The receptionist, lawyer assistants, and several lawyers seemed to be all under 30.

He had then asked Samson what young people liked to eat and drink, and Samson had given him a list of options.

Stephen then turned to Samson and instructed, "I want you to order some afternoon tea for everyone in Tess' company."

Since Lester was trying to win people over with coffee, he would treat them all to a mountain of snacks.

Samson had always been thorough with his work. As Stephen's assistant, he knew about Stephen's feelings toward Tessa. Hence, he knew he had to order the best of the best when ordering food for the employees of Tessa's law firm.

All the milkshakes he had ordered were made of fresh milk and the ripest produce, whereas the fruit teas were made from imported fruits. Meanwhile, all the cakes were bought from the famous Black Swan Bakery.

Tessa's lips twitched when she heard Stephen's reply. Was he really doing it because he did not like owing people? Tessa didn't even want to call him out on his lie.

He had come into the law firm early that morning, claiming that the firm was his. Now, he was competing with Lester over coffee.

Tessa thought about how everyone had been working hard lately and how bad it was to waste so much food. Not to mention, she could not return the food and drinks as everything had already arrived.
