Chapter 137 Personal Grievances

“Hi, I’m here to help Chloe deliver Mr. Joseph’s lunchbox. She’s currently conducting a site inspection and couldn’t get away. I’m the secretary of the boss from the office across the street,” Melody introduced herself.

Lucas took a sharp breath, feeling a headache coming on. He had just informed Joseph moments ago that Chloe would soon be arriving with his lunchbox.

Following closely behind Lucas, Melody hastily took out a small mirror and checked her reflection, eagerly anticipating the moment when Joseph would see her.
