Chapter 26: Learning You
Naomi scoffed. "You’re telling me. I never thought I’d see the day she’d ask for coffee herself or be so polite about it. Usually, she acts like people should worship the ground she walks on."
Oliver chuckled. "Maybe the marriage fixed something or perhaps, the accident. I never would’ve thought."
Naomi frowned. "Me too. I guess that’s why Stefan was asking strange questions yesterday."
Oliver’s curiosity was instantly piqued. He started walking with her toward the break room. "What questions?"
Naomi gave a quick glance around, then lowered her voice. "He asked if the woman with him yesterday was really Ivy. Can you imagine that?"
Oliver let out a low laugh. "Seriously? Could it be that bad?"
Naomi nodded. "Dead serious. I was as surprised as you are now."
"Well," Oliver smirked, "whoever she is, I hope she keeps it up. It’s nice not having to walk on eggshells around here. If she’s going to be coming to the office often as I think she is, we could all use a calmer version of Ivy."
Naomi rolled her eyes. "Tell me about it. I hope she doesn’t change back to that Ivy."
They grabbed the coffee and headed back. When they returned, Oliver veered off into his own office while Naomi knocked softly and entered with a tray.
Ruby was flipping through a thin file when she looked up. "Thanks, Naomi. You can read out the schedule." fr.e ewe.bno.vel .com
Naomi placed the tray down, then took out her notepad. "There’s not much for today, since we assumed Mr. Winters would be away. Just a call with the Tokyo branch at 3 PM and two proposals needing review and signature."
As she spoke, Ruby took a sip of her coffee... and almost choked. The taste was overwhelmingly sweet. She swallowed hard and smiled through the moment, even though her tongue was practically coated in sugar.
She’d almost forgotten how much Ivy loved really sweet things.
Naomi didn’t seem to notice and continued reading. Once she was done, she placed two folders in front of Stefan and stepped back.
Ruby cleared her throat gently. "Naomi... next time, please, remember not to add so much sugar and cream."
Naomi blinked. "Oh, was it bad? I’m so sorry. I thought I made it exactly the way you like it."
Ruby hesitated for a beat. "It’s fine. Just... that I don’t like that much sugar anymore."
Naomi tilted her head but didn’t press. "Alright. I’ll remember that." With that, she gave a nod and left the room.
As soon as the door shut, Stefan turned slightly toward Ruby. "You don’t like sugar now?"
