Unwilling to concede, Hertha moved closer.


    She ran her fingers nervously through her hair, attempting to be s@xy.


    “It’s alright if you can’t join me for dinner tonight.


    How about this weekend? We could catch a movie.


    Your hands are slender and elegant, and you even make coffee with grace.


    If you happen to y the piano, you’d have many admirers.


    ”


    Hilliard nced at his hands after she said this.


    He couldn’t y the piano.


    But he was good at cutting people open with a scalpel during surgery.


    If he said so, would thesedies consider him weird?


    He pondered silently and said nothing.


    He then added three teaspoons of sugar into the coffee and stirred it.


    Hertha went on, “I’ve heard you’re single.


    There are many beautiful women at Turner Group.


    Has anyone caught your eye? Even if I’m not your type, perhaps I can y matchmaker.


    ”


    Hilliard ceased stirring his coffee and replied curtly, “Yes.


    ”


    Hertha grew curious.


    “Really? Who has caught your fancy? I could help you win her over.


    ”


    All of a sudden, Jennifer’s serious face shed before his eyes.


    He said softly, “I like Jen.Text ? by N0ve/lDrama.Org.


    .


    ”


    Just then, knocks echoed on the ss door.


    ALL eyes turned toward the door.


    Jennifer, with a stern expression, stood there, surveying everyone in the tea room.


    Everyone, except Hilliard, rose respectfully and gave a slight bow.


    “Miss Turner.


    ”


    Jennifer nodded and focused her gaze on Hertha.


    “During working hours, instead of diligently contributing to thepany, you’re here in the tea room, discussing other people’s personal lives.


    I didn’t hire you for that.


    ”


    Hertha’s face paled with fear.


    “I’m deeply sorry, ma’am.


    We won’t repeat it.


    We’ll return to our work immediately.


    ”


    Jennifer narrowed her eyes and said coldly, “Then do so promptly.


    ”


    “Yes, madam.


    ”


    The girls in the tea room scattered and rushed back to their offices.


    Shortly after, only Hilliard remained in front of the coffee machine.


    Jennifer, with poise, looked at him and remarked, “I thought you’d lost your way since it was taking you ages to return.


    It appears you were merely chatting with the girls in the tea room and lost track of time.
