Chapter 25 What Are You All Still Doing Here?
Originally, she thought this traditional pharmacy wouldn’t have everything she needed. However, it turned out that the shop did have the three items she was looking for, and she presumed the owner must have spent a considerable sum to auction them.
In other words, since these items were acquired at a high cost through auction, the natural assumption was that they would be sold at a steep price. Maybe not in the billions, but certainly in the tens of millions.
Noah wanted to be generous, right? She would fulfill his desire, then!
After putting the medicinal herbs away, she had the chauffeur take her to a restaurant. Inside, she ordered a plethora of dishes that she and Finley enjoyed in their past lives. Then, she hopped back into the car and headed to Dean Corporation.
When the car came to a stop by the roadside, Samantha noticed someone selling cotton candy. She bought two, remembering how, in her previous life, whenever Finley upset her, he would buy cotton candy to appease her mentally challenging self.
Holding the familiar cotton candy, Samantha decided to bring it to Finley’s company and share it with him.
Half an hour later, Samantha, carrying the packed lunch, took Finley’s exclusive elevator by force despite the front desk’s attempt to stop her.
She certainly wasn’t going to let the receptionists stop her from going where she wanted to go.
Samantha arrived on the 88th floor, where Finley was currently in a meeting with the company’s executives, who had been called back to the company by Finley since 8.30 a.m. Now, almost noon, hungry and tired, they wondered when their CEO would dismiss them. for lunch.
Perhaps the heavens heard the executives‘ prayers as Samantha knocked on the meeting room door and, without giving them a chance to speak, walked in carrying a bunch of things straight to Finley.
She placed the lunch on the table and, to the shock of the executives, spoke out, “Darling, it’s noon. We should eat, or your gastric will act up again.”
Darling?! The executives were shocked beyond belief. Since when did Boss marry his ninth bride? And this girl is completely fine, lively, and energetic! What on earth is going on?
Noticing the executives were still seated as she removed the containers, Samantha remarked, “My husband and I are going to have our lunch. Are you all planning to stay here and watch us eat?”
Of course, we want to leave, but the boss still hasn’t given the nod of approval yet, hasn’t he?!
The executives sat there collectively, not saying a word. It wasn’t until Finley said “Adjourn” that they stood up and left.
Once everyone was gone, Samantha handed Finley the cutleries. “I was out earlier today and. couldn’t get home in time to cook you lunch personally, darling. These are all takeaways. I hope you won’t mind and make do for now. I’ll personally cook tonight, okay?”
Finley stayed silent. He didn’t take the cutleries from Samantha either but picked up a pair from the side and started eating quietly.
Observing Finley struggling to eat with the mask on, Samantha reached out and removed the mask from his face. “You don’t need to wear a mask in front of me, darling.”
Finley said nothing.
Samantha placed Finley’s mask aside, then peeled a shrimp and fed him. However, Finley still didn’t open his mouth.
