Chapter 10: Chapter 9: Something Happened to Joy Lyle

"Put me down."

Elliana turned her face away and coughed lightly, Norman gently set her down, and then held her hand as they walked out.

They walked all the way to the CEO’s office, but Elliana didn’t say a word. Her thoughts were all jumbled up. Would Norman think she was...

Coincidentally, Norman hadn’t said a word either. As soon as they stepped into the office, she pointed to several bags on the sofa and said, "Norman, I bought you gifts. Do you want to take a look?"

"Okay."

Elliana took out all the items, which couldn’t be considered expensive. Altogether, they were not even worth the cufflinks Norman was wearing.

Those were masterpieces by a famous French designer, and compared to what she bought, Elliana felt a bit embarrassed.

"Help me change," Norman’s tone was light yet carried a slight command.

Elliana was momentarily stunned, then proceeded to remove all the suit accessories Norman was wearing and replaced them with the ones she bought.

Watching Elliana seriously exchanging his cufflinks, Norman was a bit dazed. She had changed so much; he couldn’t believe it was a sudden transformation.

"Done! What do you think?" Elliana smiled as she looked up at him, hoping for his approval.

"Very good."

The remark was indifferent, but Elliana sighed in relief, fearing Norman might not like them.

She then added, "Norman, thank you for sending money to my cousin; otherwise, I would definitely have forgotten."

Norman lowered his gaze, focusing on the cufflinks. His cold eyes seemed somewhat disappointed as he said, "So, you’re thanking me?"

"Yeah... well, not entirely; I just wanted to give you a gift," Elliana spoke cautiously, afraid Norman would overthink it.

The two shared a lingering gaze. Norman reached out to gently brush her bangs and said, "If you’re tired, go inside and rest for a while. I’ll accompany you home later."

Norman glanced at the rest area, signaling her to go in.

"Okay."
