    Ellinor Mendoza tapped on the office door and then walked in, cing a freshly brewed cup of hot


    coffee in front of Balfour Howard


    “Mm.”


    Balfour was deeply engrossed in some documents, absentmindedly taking a sip of his coffee without


    looking away from his work


    Haillie, sitting on the office sofa, was eagerly watching Balfour, sure that he would react angrily to the


    overly sweet and milky coffee and scold Ellinor But no reaction came. Balfour simply took another sip


    of his coffee, his face expressionless.


    What the hell?


    Haillie frowned. Her hopeful expression turned into one of disappointment. Had Balfour changed his


    taste? Impossible!


    Meanwhile, Ellinor stood by Balfour’s desk, stealing nces at a certain picture frame.


    Balfour took another sip of his coffee and noticed his new secretary still standing there. Annoyed, he


    said, “What are you still doing here? Get out!” Ellinor nodded and lowered her head “Alright, Mr.


    Howard


    She then walked over to the guest area with the tray, bending over to ce another cup of coffee on


    the table. ‘Haillie, have some coffee” She offered with a smile. “Thanks. Haillie awkwardly replied,


    maintaining her politeness in front of Balfour. But her eyes were fixed on Ellinor as she whispered,


    “Didn’t you add sugar and milk to Balfour’s coffee?’


    “I didn’t.” Ellinor replied in a low voice


    Haillie gritted her teeth “Why not? Didn’t I tell you his tastes?”


    Ellinor chuckled. ‘Haillie, did you really think I would trust a suggestion from someone who clearly


    doesn’t like me?”


    Haillie was speechless, frustrated, but helpless. Ellinor was not easy to fool, she should have known


    better. Damn it!


    Ellinor then exined to Haillie, “Do you know why I brought in two cups of coffee? One cup was made


    ording to your suggestion, with lots of sugar and milk, and the other was ck. I didn’tpletely


    distrust you, Haillie. In case you were actually being considerate and I misunderstood you, I could


    switch the coffee so Mr. Howard wouldn’t have to drink something he doesn’t like.”


    Unfortunately, Haillie was still hostile.


    “So, enjoy this cup of excessively sweet and milky coffee, Hailliel


    Haillie’s face was turning sour. “You…”


    Ellinor stood up straight, smiled at her, and said in a louder voice. ‘Haillie, enjoy your coffee. If you


    need another cup, just let me know.”


    She then turned away and walked out of the room.


    Haillie was fuming and clenching her fists tightly. But she couldn’t express her anger.


    Hold on


    Balfour suddenly called Ellinor back.


    Ellinor paused, turning to face Balfour. ‘Yes, Mr. Howard?

    Balfour tossed a folder onto his desk. ‘Trante this document into Arabic and email it to our


    counterparts”


    “Sure, Mr. Howard Ellinor promptly picked up the folder and got to work.


    Haillie was left disappointed. She did not see Balfour scold Ellinor as she had hoped and instead was


    subtly mocked by Ellinor, which left her feeling frustrated,pter Nor
