“Do you have nothing better to do or did you suddenly decide to be
a deliveryman? Do you want to switch-”
ric’s sentence came to an abrupt halt when he finally registered what
his assistant said earlier. His assistant said the name ‘Miss Selwyn.‘
“From whom did you say? Miss Selwyn?”
His assistant nodded nkly. “That’s right. That’s what the deliveryman
said.”
At the same time, ric’s phone buzzed. It was a text from Victoria.

“Grandma said you didn’t have lunch, so I ordered some food for you. I just
got a message from the restaurant saying that it has been delivered. Did
you get it?”

ric’s foul mood improved immensely when he saw the text, but even so,
he murmured stiffly, “Aren’t you trying your best to avoid me? Why are
acting all concerned about me now?”
Then, he looked at his assistant.
“Bring it over.”
“Oh.”
His assistant set the bag down on the table right beside udia’s lovingly
prepared lunch, which was an irksome sight, for some reason.
After thinking about it, ric’s assistant asked, “You said you’re giving me
the lunch Miss Johnson made, right, Mr. Cadogan?”
“Mmhmm,” ric hummed curtly.
Then, his assistant intentionally queried, “But, since I’m full, can I give the
11:12 Mon, 19 Jun
Chapter 45 You’re So Good to Me
food out to the others in the office instead? It wouldn’t be good to waste
food.”

ric frowned at this question.
His assistant thought the frown meant a rejection, but instead, he heard
his boss retorting in irritation, “I’ve already given it to you so you can do
whatever you want with it. Do you need to check with me over such a
simple matter?”
“I understand.”
ric’s assistant immediately took the lunchbox out with him as if he was
afraid that his boss might regret it.
udia came back again when it was nearly time to get off work.
Chapter 45 You’re So Good to Me
After going home, she kept mulling things over and felt uneasy still.
It was noon. He was supposed to be having lunch then. Why did he go
out? Most importantly, he neglected me.
Am I not the person he’s indebted to? Am I not the most important person
in the world to him?

He didn’t even tell me what he was going out for. udia felt extremely on
edge.
When she walked past the assistants‘ area, she spotted ric’s assistant
and other employees busy at work, so she went in.
“Mr. Levane.”
ric’s assistant was a man named Peter Levane. When he looked up and
saw udia, his mood soured.
Chapter 45 You’re So Good to Me
Why’s she here again?
Nevertheless, Peter stood up and greeted coolly, “Hello, Miss Johnson.”
5/12
“Hello,” udia replied with a smile. “So sorry to disturb you, but is Al back?”
She tried her best to give a good impression because she wanted Peter to
think favorably of her, lest he badmouthed her in front of ric.
Peter paused before responding, “Mr. Cadogan got back to the office at
noon.”
udia was taken aback.
“He was already back at noon?”
Why didn’t he tell me that he was back in the office?
Feeling embarrassed, udia chuckled dryly and said, “I’ll go in to see him
Chapter 45 You’re So Good to Me
then.”
She turned to leave.
“Wait, Miss Johnson.”

Peter took out the lunchbox he kept under his desk and went after udia.
“This is what you asked me to give Mr. Cadogan.”
udia managed to smile again when she saw the lunchbox. She
reached out for it.
“Since he came back at noon, did he eat the food? Did he mention how it
tasted?”
Peter’s expression became a little strange.
“Mr. Cadogan said he had already eaten, Miss Johnson, so he gave the

food to me. It wouldn’t be right for me to have it all to myself, so I shared it
with the others in the office.”
Peter paused and reflected for a moment before adding, “Everyone
thought it tasted pretty good.”
“What…”
udia could barely keep the smile from sliding off her face when she
heard what Peter said.
Initially, she wanted to give it to Peter. She figured that since ric was
busy and wouldn’t being back, she would use it to curry favor with
Peter instead.
She didn’t think that ric would end uping back to the office so
quickly.

But he didn’t eat the food I made. He even… gave it to his assistant and the

other employees.
udia felt as if someone had trampled upon her efforts and sincerity.
“Miss Johnson?” Peter looked at udia. “Are you alright?”

udia snapped out of her reverie and forced herself to nod with a smile.
“I’m fine. I’ll go in and see Al then.”
“Alright, Miss Johnson.”
Once udia disappeared into the office, the smile on Peter’s face
instantly vanished.
Knock–Knock-
“Come in.”

Chapter 45 You’re So Good to Me
The cool, indifferent voice rang out from the office.

udia opened the door and went in. She immediately saw ric, who
was sitting at his desk with an aloof expression.
ric gave off a different kind of attractiveness when he was working. The
sleeves of his ck shirt were slightly ruffled, his tie had been tossed
somewhere, and he had even undone two of his buttons, which allowed
his corbones to peek out. His dark eyes, which were fixed on the screen
in front of him, looked even more piercing than usual.
udia had always known that ric had one–in–a–million looks. He was
wless in every way.
Every part of his face from his features to his chiseled jaw was exquisite.
His unblemished face was matched with an equally perfect physique, and
he came from an incredibly elite background.
Only a man like him was worthy of her.

udia ended up standing in a daze for quite some time. It was only

when ric noticed the silence and looked up with a frown that she came
back to her senses and walked over to him.
“udia?”
ric’s brows had furrowed as he focused on work, but when he saw
udia, they smoothened out a little. “Why did youe?”
ric’s cold, untouchable aura slowly dissipated.
udia chuckled and said, “I saw you leaving in a rush when I came to
see you at noon, so I was a little worried and wanted to check on you
before you got off work. How’s your day been? Is everything alright?”
ric’s gaze became shrouded when he recalled what happened earlier.
His tone became a lot cooler too.
“Everything’s fine. Next time, you don’t need toe over in person. You
11:12 Mon, 19 Jun
Chapter 45 You’re So Good to Me
can just give me a call.”
udia stiffened before lowering her head. Her mood dipped.
“Al… did I cause trouble for you bying over to your office?”

When ric saw udia looking despondent, he recalled the way she
fearlessly jumped into the river to rescue him. As a result of that, she had
gotten injured, lost consciousness, and nearly sacrificed her life. His heart
softened at the recollection.
“You cane over any time you want. Why would you be any trouble?”

Upon hearing the way ric’s tone softened, udia raised her head
again and asked pitifully, “Are you sure? You won’t object to my presence?”
“What are you talking about? Why would I object to your presence?” ric
refuted.

She was the one who saved his life.

“In the future, you cane over to the office whenever you like.”
Since udia got what she wanted, she wisely stopped the disy and
rushed over to grab his hand. “You’re so good to me, Al.”
“I would’ve died in the river back if it wasn’t for you, so you can go ahead
and ask anything of me. As long as it is within my means, I’ll make sure it
gets done.”
