I frowned and looked at her. “Don’t you think this is too much?”

Nora simply shrugged and replied, “Not at all! I think it perfectly described the essence of these pictures!”

I held my forehand and was speechless. However, I had to admit that it was actually quite appropriate.

My phone vibrated when I was about to put it down and continue enjoying my meal.

I could easily guess who it was without looking at the screen. Nora pouted and said, “Are you going to that shit in front of me again?”

 

I smiled as I picked up, “Ashton, have you had dinner?”

Ashton’s gentle voice sounded over the phone as he replied, “I’ve already eaten. Are you back at the hotel?”

 

“Yup,” I answered before taking a bite of salad and continued, “I got back not long ago and was just about to have dinner!”

He was probably still at the office as I could hear him typing. “Seems like you were pretty busy today!” he said.

I nodded and replied, “I learned a lot from Ms. Zimmer today. Level one of the bases is already settled so we spent the whole of today discussing the plan for the second floor. If everything goes well, we should be done by tomorrow.”
