Chapter 273 Dinner Together

After leaving the Simpson residence, I didn't return to the office. Instead, I went straight home.

Even though everything had gone incredibly smoothly today, I was still mentally drained. I needed to recharge.

A mischievous idea popped into my head, and I stealthily tiptoed inside.

"I could smell you," he answered matter-of-factly.
