Chapter 373

Augus nearly got whacked by her sudden stop as they both stepped out of the elevator. He gave her a puzzled look, "What's up?"

Marian had already turned her back to him, "No biggie, just remembered I need to snag something from the chairman's office."

With that, she spun on her heel and dashed for the stairwell.

"Aren't you gonna punch the clock?" Augus couldn't help but remind her.

"It's cool."

Her clear voice drifted back from the stairwell, fading into the distance.

Augus chuckled and shook his head.

He had already gone through the door.

There stood Theresa at the entrance, craning her neck looking around. When she saw someone enter, she seemed a bit shy and reserved but still managed a polite, "Good morning."

Augus, who wasn't around yesterday, didn't recognize Theresa and was quite surprised. He bent down and waved back, "Hey there, kiddo."

Theresa politely returned the gesture, "Hi."

Her cuteness made Augus laugh, "Aren't you a sweetheart. Whose little gem are you?"

While talking, he couldn't resist reaching out to pinch her chubby little cheek.
