Chapter 1672


    Their Agreement


    The sun slowly went under the horizon, leaving only a few floating clouds.


    As darkness fell, neon lights in this city were gradually lit up.


    The taxi that Tina took shuttled back and forth on the street while she was holding a thermal lunch


    box on her folded knees.


    As she looked out of the window, she saw many tall buildings ahead. As the taxi moved forward, the


    majestic words of Chin''s Group suddenly came into her view.


    Somehow, Tina''s heart started to race.


    When Terry called her to ask for help, she intended to refuse, but in the end, she agreed.


    Back then, she had already arrived at the hospital. But she turned back home right away without


    even entering the ward.


    The driver in front stepped on the brake. "Miss, we’re here!"


    Tina nodded and paid to get off the car.


    She took a deep breath and walked into the building with the thermal lunch box.


    Different from other office buildings, the whole building belonged to the Chin''s Group. With the lights


    of this building all turned on at night, it looked as gorgeous as a huge crystal box.


    The box in Tina''s hands was heavy.


    Inside the thermal box was the rice porridge that she had just cooked.


    Cooking rice porridge was simple, but it was crucial to control the heat. It would take some effort to


    make every grain of rice sticky and soft.


    Tina couldn''t help but think of the situation when she made porridge for Wilson for the first time.


    He praised her and said that she should also make some porridge for him the next time he got sick.


    Tina still remembered their agreement even until now.


    She stepped into the building.


    Tina came to a halt as she passed through the revolving door.


    She saw a graceful and slender figure not far ahead. Even if she did nothing but stand on high


    heels with an elegant posture, everyone could tell that she was a socialite with a noble and dignified


    temperament.


    It seemed that she was waiting for someone, for she would look down at the exquisite watch on her


    wrist from time to time.


    When Tina saw Abby, she also saw her.


    Abby walked towards her. Although they had only met briefly before, she greeted her very warmly.


    "Miss Hall?"


    Tina replied politely, "Miss Amery!"


    Abby smiled and said, "What a coincidence. What are you doing here?"


    Tina hesitated. "I..."


    At this time, someone came hurriedly from behind.


    Panting, a man ran to them like a gust of wind and shouted with a much louder voice than theirs.


    "Miss Amery!"


    This man carrying a bag in his hand was about forty years old, but he was respectful to Abby. It was


    obvious that he was a servant of the Amery family.


    Abby looked at her watch again. "Why has it been so long?"


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    The servant quickly exined, "I''m so sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Right after you


    called home, I immediately asked the chef in the kitchen to make the dish you asked for. It''s just that


    the traffic along the way was heavy!"


    "It''s all right. You sent it here in time!" Abby didn''t me her but behaved well. "Is it still warm?


    The man nodded repeatedly and handed the bag to her. "Don''t worry. The rice porridge inside is


    hot, and there are also some matching dishes. They''re all organic vegetables that are very suitable


    for people who are ill to eat!"


    Tina clenched her fists tightly when she heard that.


    Almost subconsciously, she hid the thermal lunch box behind her.


    Abby nodded with relief. "That''s good!"


    Then, she looked at Tina with a smile. "By the way, Miss Hall, we haven''t finished talking yet. Why


    are you here sote? Are you here to look for someone?"


    Tina was at a loss for words.


    The reception hall of the building was very spacious, and there were elevators on both sides of the


    hall.


    At this time, the elevator on the left arrived on the first floor, and people came out one after another.


    Then, Tina recognized a familiar exaggerated figure


    Tina pointed to him. "I... I''m here to see Desmond."


    Abby raised her beautiful eyebrows and seemed to be a little surprised. "I didn''t expect you and him


    to know each other!"


    Desmond stretched out his arm to rx and walked over. As he spotted Tina, he called out in


    surprise, "Hey, why are you here?"


    "Desmond!" Tina said.


    She seemed to have found a way out and was very grateful for his appearance.


    Abby lifted her long hair and looked at Desmond with a smile. "We haven''t seen each other for a


    long time!"


    When Desmond saw her, he nced at Tina. Thinking of all the secrets he had told Tina, he looked


    a little embarrassed with them. "Yes, Abby. I''ve heard that you''re back!" Seeing that he seemed to


    be a little shy before her, Abby felt slightly delighted.


    But when she thought of the bag in her hand, she was in a hurry to go upstairs.


    "Let''s talk another day!" Abby quickly ended the topic and then smiled apologetically at Tina. "Sorry,


    Miss Hall, I''m afraid the food here would turn cold after a while. Also, someone is waiting for me, so


    I have to go now! Bye."


    Tina surely knew who was waiting for her.


    She forced a smile and nodded.


    Abby nodded at them, turned around, and walked to the exclusive elevator on the other side.


    Soon, her figure disappeared from their sight.


    Tina walked out of the building with Desmond, who looked pleasantly surprised. "Did you really


    come here to see me? How did you know I was here?"


    Tina hesitated. "I passed by and saw your car."


    Desmond was a straightforward man, so he had no doubt about what she said.


    He murmured, "I was surprised when I saw you. I thought you were here to see Wilson!"


    Tina slightly pursed her lips. "No..."


    Adambed his curly hair with his fingers. "I''ve just finished the meeting about a merger case.


    The old man responsible for the case was so wordy and made the meeting so long. I almost cursed


    him before he ended it! However, I didn''t expect you woulde to see me! What a please


    surprise! Let me send you back to the hospital. I also want to y with your little daughter!"

    Tina, ...


    After leaving the building, Tina got into his mboyant sports car.


    With a roar of the engine, he made a cool turn and entered the traffic stream.


    As they stopped before a red traffic light, Desmond noticed the thing in her hand. "What is in your


    hand?"


    Tina looked down and said in a low voice, "Rice porridge..."


    It seemed difficult for her to answer it.


    Her fingertipnded lightly on the lunch box as if it were covered with needles.


    In her heart, she felt bitter and painful.


    Tina put the lunch box in his arms. "Are you hungry? You can eat it!"


    How could the porridge she madepare with the dishes from the Amery family''s chef?


    Since she had decided to throw it away, she might as well give it to Desmond. At the very least, she


    wouldn''t waste the rice.


    After the long meeting, Desmond was so hungry that his eyes lit up when he heard her words. "Do


    you really mean it?"


    Tina nodded. "Sure!"


    Desmond was thrilled.


    After the traffic light turned green, he turned the steering wheel to the right and parked the car within


    the stop line on the roadside. So anxious was he that he could barely wait to open the thermal lunch


    box.


    Suddenly, he thought of something and squinted at her.
