Chapter 56

The secretary was bewildered at the sight of Susan fleeing the scene frantically, “Mr. Landor, what’s wrong with Madam Susan?”

“There’s nothing. She needs time to get used to it.” Ben then continued calmly, “What’s the matter?”

The secretary gathered herself and quickly got down to business.

Susan ran all the way back to the Programming Department.

“Susan!” Upon seeing her, Luke’s eyes immediately flickered with hope, “Why have you been away for so long? What did Mr. Landor say?”

Susan felt a little distressed as she glanced at Luke.

Luke’s eyes widened all of a sudden, “Eh, what’s wrong with your lips?”

“Lips?”

Susan hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand.

Despite so, everyone around had already seen it even if she did not intend for some of them to know about it.

At that very moment, everyone in the office exclaimed unanimously, “Ohhh…

“Damn it!”

Susan’s cheek was burning fiercely as if she could fry an egg on it.

Luke cleared his throat before calling out sternly, “Ahem, be quiet.”

The crowd shut up immediately.

It was only then Susan heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed like Luke was the one who took better care of her.

However, in the next second, she heard Luke muttering secretively, “Actually, I don’t mind if I were to wait for some time longer.”

“Hahaha.”
