Chapter 706

The topic of conservation seemed to have deviated. The expressions on her colleagues’ faces were serious. They did not seem to be joking.

Larissa suddenly felt as it she was sitting on pins and needles. Since she’d entered the Winston Hotel she had been working under Allen. He was only a few years older than her. Besides, he was a single father with a son as well.

Apart from work, they had other topics in common.

In comparison to other colleagues, they had more to talk about. Still there was nothing more between them.

Larissa had nothing but awe, respect, and gratitude for Allen. She didn’t have any romantic feelings toward him. Larissa assumed that Allen thought the same of her, but things seemed to be different

She didn’t dare to meet Allen’s gaze and chuckled to stop the others from stiming up a fuss.

“You guys, stop cracking jokes about Allen and me. Don’t you know how it is between the both of us? We’re just good friends and colleagues.”

The rest of them only smirked in response and ignored her denial.

Unable to refute them, Larissa felt a lump in her throat that was suffocating her.

Allen’s face darkened when he saw Larissa’s face completely red either from the heat or from anxiety.

“Let’s order,” he said, flipping the menu. Most of the people at the table had worked with Allen long enough to know from his tone that he was in a bad mood.

Sheepishly, all of them shut up and locked down at the menu quietly.

Because of this unpleasant incident, the farewell dinner ended in an awkward manner.

Everyone ate quietly at the table and murmured in low voices.

The conversation at the table was mainly to pass around utensils or ketchup.

Larissa tried her best to keep her spirits up until the end of the dinner.

No one had any intention of prolonging the dinner.

They said their goodbyes and fled the scene as fast as they could.

In the end, only Larissa, Lewis, and Allen were left.

Looking at Larissa, Allen seemed hesitant to speak with Lewis present.

Before leaving, he said to her, “Text me when you reach home.”

Larissa replied reluctantly. “Alright.”

After they were done with the events for the day. Lewis sent Larissa back to the hospital.

During the journey back. Lewis did not hold back and remarked, “Your superior is interested in you romantically.”

When they met, Lewis already guessed that this was the case when Allen suddenly appeared hostile to him. His suspicions were confirmed when the other colleagues made a fuss about them being together.
