Chapter 565
But Sean saw through her little ruse.
“I have other matters to deal with,” Sean declined her invitation. “Maybe I can call someone else to go
with you.” “Forget it. I’d better ask Natalie to apany me. I don’t know who will get hurt this time if
Brandon gets angry.” Este sighed and picked up her phone to call Natalie.
“Miss Lopez, please don’t do that,” Sean said as he grabbed Este’s phone. He felt helpless by her
actions. “Tell me, what do you want to eat?”
Este immediately put her phone down. “Well, I won’t give you a hard time. Let’s just go to the
Sean just had to agree.
The Larson Group’s canteen was famous in Barnes. Even if it was only apany canteen, world-
renowned chefs gathered there. It had been trending on the Inte for some time now.
“Don’t be nervous. I’m asking you to eat with me because you know Brandon well,” Este said when
she noticed that Sean was vigntly standing more than ten meters away from her. “I just want to
gather materials to write a novel. You see, I’m a novelist.”
Sean breathed a sigh of relief as he quickly followed her. ‘”Why didn’t you tell me earlier? However, I
signed a confidentiality agreement. If I disclose Mr. Larson’s private affairs, I will get sry deductions.”
Sean’s pay had been significantly reduced because he had irritated Brandon.
“Then why don’t you resign?” Este said, feeling sorry for him.
“I have never thought about my resignation. Mr. Larson could be harsh sometimes, but he’s a good
man. Let’s stop talking about it anymore,” Sean said, and then he told Este to order whatever she
like.
“Then I’m not going to stand on ceremony,” Este said, ordering the most expensive dishes.
Sean was being so generous that he didn’t flinch at Este’s choices of food.
Looking at Sean’s meal card bnce, Este said in surprise, “You have so much money. It’s not worth
spending everything on food.”
She shifted her gaze to Sean, who was thin and tall. He didn’t seem like a big eater to her.
Sean smiled mysteriously. Being Brandon’s assistant had its advantages. While Brandon was cold and
harsh with others, he could be kind to his personal assistant.
When the food was served, Sean sat down with Este.
Este was such a foodie. She enjoyed her meal so much. Even though she hadn’t finished what was
on her te, she kept her gaze fixed on the crab on the table.
Sean smiled gleefully at Est. “We can order some more if you’re still hungry. The canteen won’t
close until we get off work.”
Sean noticed Este could easily move her arm now. Still smiling at her, he said, “Miss Lopez, your arm
seems to be alright now.”
Este smiled at him. “For food, I have to be strong, even if I’m badly injured,” she equivocated.
Sean nodded. “You girls should eat more. It’s really not pretty to be skinny.”
Seeing Este enjoying the food so much, he subconsciously worked up a good appetite and ordered
an additional te of curry potatoes.
Este belched. She wiped her mouth and smiled mysteriously, “I guess you don’t have a girlfriend.”
Sean raised his face to briefly look at her, and then he continued eating. Este saw a bitter smile on
his face.
After the meal, Este took out herptop to get to work. “Do you think you’re very important to
Brandon as his personal assistant?” she asked.
Sean’s eyes lit up. Clearly, the question was to his liking. “Do you see it, too?”
Este didn’t actually see it that way. It was just a casual question.
Then Sean began to tell her more about his work. “I’m usually responsible for cleaning his vi, sorting

out important documents, doing theundry, and even cooking for Mr. Larson. Although Mr. Larson
appears to be high and mighty to others, he was one person who needs care and attention. I even
make a scarf for Mr. Larson every winter…”
Este, at first, listened to him carefully, even taking notes on herptop. As Sean went on, however,
her attention started to wander out of boredom.
What Sean was telling her was that he was, in a sense, like a mother to Brandon.
Sean became anxious. Thinking that he would be in Este’s book, he wanted to see if he would be
portrayed as an important character. “Let me see your notes,” he said, grinning as he turned to look at
Este’sptop screen.
Sean’s eyes widened when he saw the word “maid” on the screen. It was written in big, bold fonts.
“Please, delete that immediately,” he snarled at her. “You’re tarnishing my image. I’m not his maid! I’m
just being a caring person.”
“Okay, okay,” Est acquiesced as she deleted the word. “I’ll change it. How about ‘mother-like’?”
Sean almost jumped up, saying, “No way! You’ll make the readers think I’m a sissy.”
He grabbed Este’sptop. During the rush, Sean identally knocked down the orange juice on the
table, sshing it onto theptop. Within seconds, theptop screen went ck.
Este quickly wiped the juice stains off the keyboard and said in a panicky voice, “Is it broken? I have
very important documents on myptop.”
She tried to turn on theptop, but it didn’t respond at all.
