Alvin admired her for a moment.

It was not every day that he could enjoy the view while sipping coffee in the middle of a busy afternoon.

But out of politeness, Alvin lowered his head after a few seconds.

He was going to change his position and try to find a full-length window that reflected light. This was so that he could ‘politely’ peek at the beautiful lady.

However at this moment, he didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he felt like someone or something was watching him.

That sensation was very strong, causing Alvin to frown and twist his neck to look around.

Then, Alvin realized that this feeling came from the floor-length window beside him.

He looked at the floor-length window.

In the window, he saw the beautiful lady’s face.

Her face was facing the table but her eyes were not staring at the magazine. Instead, they were slanted to the side and looking in the direction of the floor-length window.

Their eyes met through the reflection of the floor-length window.

Two seconds later, Alvin retracted his gaze and took a deep breath.

He felt as if he had experienced a blissful moment. Being able to experience such an encounter in a cafe made him feel better.

However, he was not a greedy person. Being able to make eye contact once with such a beautiful woman was enough for him.

After all, in today’s society, such a beautiful woman would not be in the same world as him. His salary was not high enough.

While he was happy, Alvin suddenly became a little wary.

When he was in school, he understood that when a beautiful girl took the initiative to talk to him, it was most likely because she wanted to copy the exam answers.

If not then she enjoyed the feeling of being pursued by others. Hence, she would occasionally throw a few flirtatious glances at him.

That was the case when he was a student, and it got worse when he became an adult. There was a lot of pretense going on in relationships. Whoever was serious in that relationship would lose.

When Alvin thought of this, he had already completely calmed down. He casually took out a magazine and was ready to pass the last ten minutes he had.

“Hehehehehe…”

Alvin suddenly heard a burst of laughter.

Then, the beautiful lady suddenly stood up and sat down on the leather chair in front of him.

The fragrance of women’s shampoo accompanied the beautiful lady’s crisp voice.

“Hey, Alvin! Let me guess, you were just thinking, ‘Oh, this beauty must be a gold digger pretending to be pure and innocent’, right?”

“Hahaha, Alvin, you are as cute as ever.”

…

Hearing the other party call his name so familiarly, Alvin was stunned.

How did this beautiful stranger know his name?

Alvin lowered his head to take a look, making sure that he was not wearing his employee identification card.

“Don’t look for it anymore, Alvin. Your employee identification card is in your left hip pocket. You are used to putting it there because you said that your right hip is big, so it will break the card if you place it on your right side.”

Alvin frowned. He didn’t need to confirm it because he really did put his card there when he was resting.

The pretty lady was right. It was as though she could read his mind.

“Also, Alvin, why didn’t you reply to my messages? I saw you take out your phone earlier.”

Hearing this, Alvin was relieved and voiced his guess, “You’re Aurelia?”

“That’s right! I am the said beautiful girl, Aurelia!”
