Natasha arched her brows and did not seem angry. “Didn’t you disappear because you had something? It’s fine. I’m not angry.”

“Really?” Zachary asked.

“Of course.”

“Then, can we continue to be friends?” Zachary continued asking.

Natasha smiled. “Do I seem so petty?”

“Of course not.”

“That’s it. Of course, we are still friends,” Natasha responded.

After a brief hesitation, Zachary asked, “Then, why didn’t you answer my call?”

“Call?”

“I called you this morning, but you didn’t pick up—”

Upon hearing that, Natasha came to a realization. She explained, “I had a small incident at the hospital yesterday and twisted my ankle. I dropped my phone and broke it, and I haven’t had the time to buy another one.”

Zachary was finally able to smile casually. “I see. I understand now.”

Natasha smiled. “I’ll change my phone after I end work later.”

Zachary nodded and said with a smile, “Let me send you upstairs.”

“There’s no need—”

“As friends, how could I let you go up alone?”

Since Zachary said that, Natasha did not reject him any longer. “I’ll be troubling you, then.”

“It’s no trouble.” Zachary extended his hand; this time, Natasha did not reject his offer. With his support, they went upstairs.

Before Natasha reached the office, rumors that she was sent back by a handsome man had spread. Everyone rushed to the entrance to take a look excitedly.

“Okay. You should head back now. If you continue walking in, there will be rumors.” Natasha told him.

“Why? Do the people in your office gossip a lot?”

“It’s unimaginable.” Natasha could only use this word to describe it.
