Chapter 2141


    Larry walked in, closed the door behind him, and called out softly, "Hello,


    N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    Ms. Hall."


    Ste was taken aback. Then, she asked, "Larry? Is there something you need?"


    Larry nodded. "Yes. Ms. Hall, today is my son''s birthday, and I''d like to give him something. Could you


    please approve my leave? I only need two hours.


    Ste smiled. "Of course, but ourpany has a dedicated person who handles leave requests for


    drivers. You can look for Mr. Payton on the second floor, but I''ll approve it for you this time. Next time,


    just go directly to him."


    She paused, then looked at his empty hands and asked, "Where is your leave request form?"


    Larry looked somewhat embarrassed as he said softly, "I was afraid that you wouldn''t approve it, so I


    haven''t filled it out yet." "You''re not taking leave without reason, and there''s not much for you to do now


    anyway. A kid only has one childhood, so spend as much time as you can with him."


    As she spoke, Ste printed out a leave request form from herputer and handed it to Larry along


    with a pen, saying, "Fill it out, and I''ll sign it for you. Take it to the HR department to file it, and then you


    can leave."


    Larry took it, ced his thermos on the office desk, and bent over slightly to fill out the leave request


    form.


    From where Ste was sitting, she could see the words he was writing. She was somewhat surprised


    as she said, "Larry, your handwriting is very nice."


    Larry''s handwriting looked nothing like his ragged appearance. Ste remembered that his highest


    educational level was only junior high school, but his handwriting was truly remarkable.


    Larry replied modestly, "It''s nothing. I watched my son write and learned it from him." "That''s pretty


    impressive too."


    Ste finished her water just as Larry had filled out the form. Then, he handed it to Ste for her to


    sign.


    Ste took the pen and read the details.


    As Larry grabbed his thermos on the table, he slowly twisted it open. The hot water emitted a faint


    steam, and through the mist, he watched Ste sign the form with her head lowered. His expression


    looked somewhat dark and inscrutable.


    Ste then signed it and said, "Larry, take the box of choctes from the coffee table when you leave.


    It''s a gift from a friend, and I haven''t opened it. Bring it back for your son. He might like it."


    Then, she looked up and smiled as she handed him the signed leave request form. "I''ve approved an


    extra two hours for you. Just make sure to be back before five in the afternoon."


    Larry clenched his hand around the thermos, tightened the lid, and reached out to take the form.


    "Thank you so much, Ms. Hall," he said.


    "Don''t mention it. You may leave now."


    Larry nodded, took the form, and started walking away. When he was about to leave the office, Ste


    called out to him, "Larry, wait a moment."


    She reached into a drawer, walked over, and handed Larry the box of choctes on the coffee table


    along with a voucher. "Take this voucher with you. There''s a bakery across the street from our


    company. You can get a free four-inch cake with it."


    Larry pursed his lips and looked at Ste with an indescribable look. After freezing for two seconds, he


    reached out to take them. But before he could do so, the lid of his thermos suddenly loosened, and it


    fell to the ground. The hot water sshed all over, and Ste instinctively took two steps back.
