Chapter 487 - Sudden Interruption (2/2)

”Mhm,” she sucked the juice from the straw as Kevin guided her back to the lift. The juice felt cool and nice on this hot day.

She eyed the hand that he placed on her back. It was weird to be escorted this way by other people, but she didn't feel uncomfortable from his touch. If anything, she liked his attention right now.

While waiting, Kevin took the chance to examine the girl's expression. The last time he saw her was during the meeting when she dressed up as Laura. At that time, he didn't manage to take a good look at her because she put on a lot of makeup to make herself look like her sister. She hadn't changed much, but she had a healthier countenance. It seemed that she was enjoying her free time lately.

When his thoughts reached this point, he felt glad. At the very least, she still took care of herself and didn't let other matters trouble her. What he wanted the most was for her to be happy.

Ding!

A few people walked out of the elevator. They were surprised when they saw these two. But with a look from Kevin, they quickly averted their eyes. Their boss was glaring at them, who would dare to stare back?

They still wanted to keep their lives!

”Let's go in.”

”Mhm,” Kanae was still sipping her juice as they entered the elevator. Kevin bought her the larger size, so it would take her a few minutes to finish all of it.

Kevin chuckled a bit when he saw how Kanae kept on sucking the juice. ”You don't have to hurry. It's not like I'll steal it from you.”

”Do you want some?” Kanae opened her mouth and raised the glass slightly, asking the young man.

”Are you sure that you want to give me your juice?”

”Why?”

”There's only one straw,” Kevin replied indirectly. He did want to drink from the same straw as her because it would be an indirect kiss, but it would be better if she realized it first. After all, he didn't want to take advantage of her.

At least, for now.

”One straw?” Kanae repeated before what he implied struck her mind. Her cheeks turned red as she lowered her glass again. ”I changed my mind. If you want a drink, you should just buy one.”

”I don't mind drinking yours.”

”I mind.”

”Why?”

”Because a glass is already too little for me.”

Hearing her reason, Kevin's lips curled up even further. He knew that she was hiding her embarrassment for not realizing it before, but the way she made up a random reason just made it more amusing for him. Her reason was not bad, but only a fool would believe it.

She might be a glutton, but she would still share her food with others at times.

Ding!

”We've arrived.”

Kanae heaved a sigh when they reached the floor to his office. She was worried that Kevin would continue to tease her because she didn't realize something so obvious. Looking at the familiar hall, she smiled internally. It looked like Neo didn't redecorate this area.

Well, if he did, he might need to face Kevin's wrath since this was Kevin's office.

Kevin pointed to his office as the two of them walked out together. ”Do you want to come inside? There's nothing much there as Neo works in a different room, but it still should look the same as before you left.”

”I do. Let's go inside.”

”Ok.”

Kevin approached the door when he sensed something. His gaze sharpened as he sensed that something was wrong in the room. By his side, Kanae put the glass on the table. She also could feel that something terrible would happen if they opened this door.

It was purely instinct, but their instincts had already been proven right countless times before.

”There's something wrong,” Kevin said unhurriedly. ”Let's go back.”

”Alright,” Kanae readily agreed.

Turning his body around, he was about to make a call to the others to check the room when he felt a sudden force coming from behind him. The pressure rose abruptly to an unimaginable degree, threatening to push everything away. Kevin's face turned ashen. It took him a split second to realize what it was.

Someone had planted a bomb in his company!
