Chapter 447 A Meal Together
Dream Designs might have moved to the new building Han gave Leah, but there were still many vacancies in the company. The only staff members were the ones from the studio, Leah, and Serena. The whole building was nearly empty.
“Ms. White. Ms. Coleman. We’ll be going to work now.” The staff members greeted Leah and Serena before they left. Serena found it weird and said, “Hey! Who’s a cold man? Can’t you call me Ms. Serena instead?”
Leah shook her head and said, “Sure, Ms. Serena. Let’s get to work.”
Serena knew Leah was teasing her and said, “Don’t laugh. What’s going on with you and Han? Don’t try to tell me there’s nothing going on between you two. I saw him driving you here. Have you decided to accept him?”
Leah decided to ignore her and called Susan, “Ms. Victor, my new office is ready now. Do you want to visit when you are free?”
After moving to a new office, Leah wanted to organize a celebratory dinner. She must invite Susan since she was her partner.
Susan immediately accepted her invitation.
After the call, Serena asked Leah, “Didn’t she like you? Will Han want her at dinner?”
Serena saw how scary Han could be when he was jealous. She even had a nightmare that night. She
wondered how Leah survived living with him.
Leah did not mind, “Isn’t it just a meal? Everyone will be there.”
When it was time to get off work, Leah sent a text to Han asking him not to pick her up because of the celebratory dinner. Since Han did not reply, she thought he agreed.
Leah brought her staff and Susan to a restaurant to celebrate. However, she was not happy when she saw Han sitting beside her with Ben standing behind Han.
“Why are you two here?” Leah did not remember inviting them. She wondered if there was a mole among them since Han and Ben knew the venue and exact time of their reservation.
Leah looked at Serena. Serena quickly waved and said, “It’s not me. I don’t know who told them that we are having dinner here.”
Ben tried to suppress his smile and explained, “The owner of this restaurant is close to Mr. Howard. He will tell us immediately when he has news of you.”
Serena was irritated by Ben’s smile, “Stop pretending. I knew you were smiling just now.”
Han looked at Ben who was standing behind him and said, “Let’s eat together.” He usually treated his subordinates like his own sibling, so Ben sat beside Han with Serena opposite him.
Leah saw how Serena wanted to complain about Ben again and said, “Forget it. Let’s eat together since they are already here.”
Meanwhile, Susan and Han were locking horns.
“Some people might look like nice entrepreneurs, but they are in fact very shameless. They just appear without an invitation…” Susan said while cutting her steak.
Serena agreed with Susan, but she dared not nod in agreement. After all, Han gave them the office building.
Han was not happy as well. He said to Susan, “If you don’t like it, you may leave. Sarah is already a married woman, yet you still pursue her. Will those few old men in the Victor family forgive you for that?”
Susan choked after hearing Han mention her family, “This is my personal relationship. It’s none of their business. I’m not a player like you who uses various identities to cheat a little girl.”
Han was getting angry when he heard that, he gripped his fork tightly and was ready to stab Susan’s face with it. Leah was scared. She held his hands and said, “Don’t be reckless. Just eat your food”
She was really troubled. First, there was Han and now she also had to deal with Susan.
Leah said, “She didn’t say she likes me so can you calm down?” Han nodded.
Ben was surprised by how obedient Han was. He knew his boss loved Leah, but he was amazed at the power of love that turned a demon into who he was right now. He decided not to fall in love with anyone.
Since Han was ignoring Susan, she turned her attention to Leah, “Sarah, how about a glass of wine?”
“Sure.” Before Leah could take the glass from Susan, Han snatched it away and drank all the wine.
Susan did not want to trouble Leah anymore and stopped asking her to drink. The atmosphere was awkward. Everyone was only eating their own food.
All of them finally returned home at midnight. Serena had been drinking the whole night, so she was quite drunk now.
She hugged a telephone pole and said, “Sarah… Why are you so strong? Let’s go home…”
Leah tried to suppress her laughter and recorded the whole thing. Then, he said to Han, “Let me send her back.” However, Han took her hand and said, “We’ll send her back together.”
Serena would go crazy after she was drunk. Ben and Leah spent a lot of effort carrying her inside the car and taking her back home.
“Serena, I’m sorry. I can’t stay here to take care of you. Carlotta is alone at home…” Leah apologized before she went home.
Serena was sober now. She smiled and said, “It’s alright. I’m not drunk, I’m very sober…” Then, she lay on the bed and slept. Leah was no longer worried and went home with Han after she heard Serena snoring.
Ben sent them back to Villa Victoria and prepared to go home. Then, he received a call. He was shocked when he saw the caller’s name, “Ms. Serena, what is it?”
