It was just a thought, though. Jean still refused to work.

He crossed his legs while sitting on the couch, then he looked at the receptionist and asked, “Do you have anything to eat or drink here?"

"Yes, Mr. Langdon. Have a seat while I go prepare something for you," the receptionist said politely.

Jean nodded arrogantly as he was just here for the money, but unexpectedly, he could freeload on some food too.

After a while, the receptionist brought a cup of coffee and some snacks over.

Jean ignored the receptionist's gaze as he grabbed the snacks and ate them right away. Although they were small, they still tasted great. Just a few more of these would be enough to fill him up.

When the receptionist saw Jean wolfing down the food as if he had not eaten for days, she frowned slightly and brought more snacks over after some consideration.

The company's purchasing department had bought these snacks to entertain the guests. They were quite pricey because practically everyone who came here was of honorable status. The refreshments were usually just for display.

Those guests would not reach for them either.

Jean was the first...

"Just put them down." Jean's eyes brightened up upon seeing her bring in more snacks.

The snacks just now barely filled his stomach, but he could stuff himself now that he had more.

The receptionist put the snacks down while Jean continued to eat.

Five minutes later, he finished all of the snacks and burped as he made a comment to the receptionist, "This company's snacks are not bad."

The receptionist felt a little awkward. He ate those snacks without any regard for his image as if he lived here. He even gave comments afterward.
