Chapter 462

No matter how loudly Truman called after him, Morris remained unmoved, heading straight into the elevator.

The elevator doors slowly closed once again. Truman was left standing outside, staring at the tightly shut doors, utterly perplexed.

He murmured, "What on earth is going on here? He looks like lie just woke up. The look in his eyes is totally different from usual. Marriage sure has a way of messing with people's heads. He even starts ignoring his own friend."

With that, he turned and headed toward Morris's office, thinking he'd sit there, have a snack, and wait it out-or maybe find Steven and Leo to discuss the wedding plans.

Halfway there, he stopped, a look of doubt crossing his face. He turned back toward the tightly shut elevator doors, feeling that something wasn't right.

Leo walked out of the meeting room just in time to see Truman standing there, looking a bit dazed. "Mr. Simpson, what brings you here? Don't tell me you've heard we're selecting wedding planners today?"

Realizing what he'd said, Leo immediately covered his mouth, correcting himself. "No, I mean-why aren't you going in? What are you doing just standing here? Mr. Chivers is in his office. And what's with the silence? Usually, you make noise before you even show up."

When Truman didn't respond, Leo waved a hand in front of his face. Snapping out of it, Truman swatted Leo's hand away and said, "Is something wrong with Morris today? He seemed completely out of it-like the life had been drained out of him."

Leo replied, "No way! He is in great spirits today, like he's walking on air. I've never seen him so upbeat-except maybe when he's with his wife."
