Chapter 162 - My Poor Single Heart (2/2)
Mitch felt like her heart leaped inside her chest. Kevin just said the thing out loud that she wanted to say. How come they were thinking of the same thing?
Mitch was dumbfounded for a moment, trying to calm her heart. She just swooned because of his simple words.
”Oh, by the way, just call me by my name, omit the word Manager, okay?” Mitch said, changing the topic.
”I would love to do that… Mitch.”
Berry couldn't help but smile in her seat. She glanced at Mitch, giving her a thumbs-up sign while winking at her.
'Go girl! Just keep it up, Mitch. You are doing fine.'
Mitch just gave Berry a warning look, telling her to behave. Berry just nodded at her while drawing a curve on her lips using her index finger. She was reminding Mitch to keep smiling.
Mitch just narrowed her eyes on her. If they continued giving each other a signal, Kevin might catch them. So Mitch just ignored Berry and brought her attention back to Kevin.
The two continued talking about work and other stuff. Mitch was making good progress in entertaining Kevin.
However as time went by, Berry felt left out and lonely. Kevin and Mitch seemed like they had their own world, talking and laughing together.
'Gosh, why do I feel like I will be eating lots of dog food right now just watching these two? Oh, my poor single heart!' Berry lamented to herself.
She could see how Mitch and Kevin exchanged sticky glances with one another as if they were already an official couple.
Mitch was smiling sweetly at Kevin, while the latter was also doing the same. He was looking at Mitch with his affectionate eyes. It was very obvious that the two had a thing for each other.
She could no longer watch this so she stood up to excuse herself for a moment.
”Kevin, Mitch, I will just go out to buy some snacks. Tell me what you want to eat. I'll buy it for you,” Berry said, catching the attention of the two.
”Oh, let me buy the snacks,” Kevin volunteered since he was the man. He got so carried away talking with Mitch that he forgot to ask the ladies if they wanted to eat some snacks.
”No need, Kevin. Just stay here with Mitch. Keep her company, alright!” Berry said to him meaningfully before leaving the room in a rush.
Kevin and Mitch just watched Berry run away in a hurry without looking back. Mitch smiled inwardly. She knew that Berry just wanted them to have some privacy.
”I guess we are left alone here. You got stuck with me now,” Mitch unconsciously blurted out. Then she regretted saying it aloud upon seeing the intense gaze coming from Kevin.
”Mitch, I don't mind being stuck with you 24 hours. In fact, I would love doing that, especially if you would allow me,” Kevin said, letting out a husky laugh.
Mitch's eyes widened and her jaw dropped. She tried to open her mouth to say something only to close it again. She was at a loss for words especially now that Kevin's intense gaze still lingered on her blushing face.
