Chapter 128 - Not seen her for a week (1/2)
Collin dropped both Lena and Kris off their place and before dropping off James. Lena told James that their usual routine will start tomorrow again.
Lena was exhausted from the ride. She walked into the building while she was texting her mom that she will return to work tomorrow. The situation with her friend was all good now. She walked up to the elevators and pressed the up button. The door opened and she walked in. As the door was going to close, Kris quickly entered inside too.
Lena looked up to him. He had his own elevator, why is he stealing hers. ”Something wrong?”
”No.”
Lena stared up at the tall man in confusion but did not ask him any more questions. She pressed her floor and went back to texting her mom. She told her that she will come visit them on Friday. When the elevator stopped at her floor, she stopped texting and got off. She waved to Kris. ”See you tomorrow.”
He did not respond back and the door closed. Lena turned around and continue walking to her door. What she did not see was that Kris stopped the closing elevator door with his hand. He watched her take out her keys, opened the door, and entered the house before closing the elevator door.
She tossed everything on the floor of her room and just tossed over her soft bed. She missed this place. She only planned to close her eyes a bit but she fell asleep. It was not until her alarm for the next morning woke her up.
Lena dragged her body to the bathroom to start her day. She had many things to catch up since she was gone. Her fridge was empty since she was gone and she had Noah come and take everything out so it did not spoil. She texted James to pick her up early so she could go get some breakfast.
They stopped at a local cafe and Lena got her morning coffee and some baked goods. Today, she was wearing a long black pant and white blouse. Her hair was tied up. As she walked into SHYNE's building, the employee all stared at her. They have not seen her for a week, but they felt like something has changed in their boss. She was wearing her normal clothes, but somehow, she looked for pretty and mature.
”Good Morning everyone.” Lena greeted the employees.
”Good morning, Miss. Shen.”
When Lena got to her floor, Diane quickly gave her a report of the things she needed to do today and her schedule for the rest of the week. Lena walked into her office and saw a pile of paperwork on her desk. It was not too much though because her mom helped her with most of them.
Shen Milli had to manage both of the companies for a long time so she was used to the heavy load. Lena still had the easy things. SHYNE was not as busy as AURA, whose target was towards the younger generations. Lena sat down on her chair and put her coffee on the table.
”Ah, I forgot something.” Diane took out a card from her folder. ”This is an invitation to this year's Women Fashion Show.”
Lena took the card from Diane. In the past, she had Andy get her access to the fashion show. Her family was not as big to be personally invited to the fashion show. Her mother was not really into those type of things too. Her mom likes traditional clothing more, that is why Lena's grandmother very like Shen Milli as a daughter-in-law.
”The invitation was given to you from Ming Zhao.” Diane clarified.
