The property management acted swiftly. Within ten minutes, they had managed to open the elevator doors.

The place she had agreed to meet Hanley was a barbecue restaurant.

She arrived twenty minutes late, feeling a bit embarrassed. “I’m sorry, I encountered some unexpected issues

on the way, hence the delay.”

Hanley remained in his simple attire, a white shirt paired with jeans, looking clean and neat.

He nodded. “Let’s go in. They’re all waiting in the private room.”

Candice always found it comfortable to be around Hanley because he was naturally straightforward in his

speech and actions, never giving off an air of deliberate falseness.

She relaxed her brow and followed him into the private room only to hear Nadia’s cheerful voice as soon as

she entered.

“Candice, long time no see! Have a happy weekend! I brought you a gift! It’s from the big boss.”

Candice raised an eyebrow in surprise at Nadia referring to Hanley as the big boss.

She glanced at Hanley, who remained composed as he calmly said, “They insisted on touring the tourist spots

in Noxville, and in the end, I footed the bill.”

With just that sentence, Candice understood what he meant.

She smiled and copied Nadia’s playful tone. “Thank you for the gift, big boss.”

When Hanley heard her address him like that, his eyebrows slightly moved, seeming quite surprised.
