Lie To Me

Chapter 20: 20

"Here." Mikael handed me a cup of coffee. "It's black, don't worry." He added.

"Thanks." I said, a bit laughing.

Well, at least now he remembers what kind of coffee I like. How many times has he told me before that

I don't drink. He got upset because of that and I had to explain that I don't like flavored coffee. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

It weirded him at first but I understood that not all people have tolerance for sweets, and unfortunately, I

was one of those.

"How was it?" I asked him.

I just finished presenting our team’s plan for the company’s next project.

It will be under a well-known brand of bags and will be released for their summer collection.

Expectations are high so the pressure is also high. But I trust my team and I know we did everything

we could.

"I like it. I like how you came up with that idea. That's right, it's for summer collection. Most people are

traveling that time and it will be more convenient for them with that kind of hand carry bag. No hassle to

carry but there are many uses. " He said. "Your team never failed me." He added.

"Thanks. We really did our very best, glad that it's paying off well." I said.

We also kept an eye on it for a few weeks. We made sure that we can give great justice for this project.

He nodded. "It's almost lunch time, let's eat outside." He asked.

I no longer refused, I called out for the team. They are very happy.

We dined in an eat-all-you-can restaurant, occupying a 15-seater long table.

"You should eat a lot, just to gain weight." Mikael said while putting fish fillets on my plate.

"That's my role, bad. Back off." Hans butted in. We invited him too.

"Possessive." Mikael commented.

I laughed.

Hans arched his brow. "I'm just keeping him from people like you." He said.

I was Mikael's turn to arch his brow.

"People like me?" He asked.

"Yes. People like you, don't ask what because we both know what I'm saying." Hans answered.

He put some beef stew on my plate. My favorite.

"Ouch. Seriously, that's how you think of me. Seriously." Mikael acted as if he was pained. It was still

holding onto his chest. But Hans ignored him.

I was just laughing at the side. It's just so funny watching them bicker.

I moved to the next table of foods and put some vegetable salad on a separate plate.

I'm good with what I have and returned to our table. Two followed.

"That's all you're going to eat?" Mikael commented.

I only have three dishes on my plate and then a salad.

"She can’t eat a lot. Stop blabbering nonsense," It was Hans who answered. He pulled my chair closer

to him.

Mikael, once again, arched his brow.

"Are you her Dad?" He teased. "I’m just asking." It adds more.

"You two aren't close enough for you to act like that towards her. If you forget." Hans said.

"I'm her employer and I think this should be normal." Mikael said.

Hans would have answered but I stopped him. We were in front of my team and they might misinterpret

them.
