"Well, what are we going to eat for lunch?" asked Andre looked at Lucy gently.
"I want to have some hot food" Lucy said.
"Alright, let's go and eat until satisfied." said Andre smiling.
They left the office parking lot and headed to a Japanese restaurant to eat a bowl of noodles.
Arriving at the restaurant, Andre and Lucy rush into the restaurant and order two bowls of noodles.
It is clear on Lucy's face that this is the first time she visited a Japanese restaurant and she was confused to see two wooden sticks in lieu of a tablespoon.
"Have you visited a restaurant like this for the first time?" ask Andre.
"I want to eat, why make it hard." whined Lucy.
"Alright, look I'll teach you how to wear these chopsticks" said Andre softly.
Andre teaches Lucy to use chopsticks, although initially difficult but over time Lucy begins to understand and get used to it. Andre smiled at Lucy who quickly understood what she was teaching.
"You're a smart kid, eat while it's warm. We will eat here often so you get used to wearing chopsticks" Andre proposed.
"What's here is just selling noodles, then I'll make you spaghetti every day" Lucy said excitedly.
"A lot of good Japanese food, I'll take you another time. Now eat this first, it will be cold." said Andre softly.
Lucy smiled at Andre who looked at her lovingly, not only handsome, Andre was also able to make her out of old life and learn new things.
When it was over, Andre and Lucy returned to the office. With a little care Lucy got out of Andre's car, afraid that other employees would see her get out of the company's CEO's car.
"Stop looking around the parking lot, no one will gossip you if you come down with me" said Andre casually.
"How do you know no one will gossip us when they see me coming out with the Chairman of this company?" ask Lucy curious.
"If they dare to tell me in the back, I will keep them from going to work again. Even I could have blocked their names in every other company" Andre said.
"Yes, you are the ruler here sir. Whereas I'm just a handful of commoners who are very easy to make the subject matter." said Lucy humbled.
Andre quickly pulled the woman's face closer to his. With wide eyes Lucy looked at Andre, surprised by what had just happened. Could it be that he had said too much to the point that it offended Andre with his words?.
"No one in the world can talk about my woman's ugliness, I will make a calculation to that person" Andre said with a cold look.
Lucy was silent and stiffly looking at Andre with an upset look, as if she could have devoured Lucy's tiny body at once.
"Alright, you are right about everything, sir. I'll obey all your orders." said Lucy trying to lower Andre's anger.
Andre does not easily release the face of Lucy who is now in front of him, although Lucy has tried to talk sweetly so that Andre gives forgiveness but his anger remains uncontrolled. He felt as if Lucy was deliberately covering up their relationship, as if Andre was deeply unworthy of being next to him.
"Hey are you crazy? I could have been out of breath if I hadn't pushed you just now" Lucy said angrily.
"Are you angry? Looks like I'll have to repeat our kiss a little better" said Andre.
Hearing that Lucy made a big smile with compulsion towards Andre, he did not want if Andre kissed him again and would anyone see them like that in the car would probably have another person response later.
"Ah I just remembered, my work is not done yet. I'm going down first, I need to get my job done quickly" Lucy said.
Lucy opens the door and gets out of the car, she runs away from the car without looking at Andre again.
"Well.... Looks like my tame little cat has now gone a little wild. I have to work hard for him to be tame again." murmured Andre with a cynical smile.
Lucy runs into the office and the elevator, her heart pounding for the kiss she and Andre had just had.
"Basic Andre is stupid, what if someone saw us earlier? You're so heartless, I just started a new life at the office. If anyone sees me alone with the President and does that, people will think I'm a cheap woman." - Inner Lucy.
He tried to calm himself as much as possible so as not to be suspicious of people. Lucy rushes to her desk and turns on her computer, and the rest of her co-workers don't seem to have arrived at the office. He tried to busy himself to look more natural as a new child without the frills of insiders.
"Lucy, don't you go to lunch?" ask a woman from behind who turns out to be Rosy.
"Owh I just finished lunch, I thought I was late" Lucy said with a sweet smile.
"You're very fast back, you'll be quick to move up the ranks if you're too diligent" joked Rosy.
"I'll get used to it from now on" Lucy said excitedly.
Rosy laughed at Lucy's words, they continued their work. Suddenly an employee approached their desk.
"Hey, I heard a new rumor today. Reportedly the President went to lunch with a woman" said the woman.
"Oh Maya, why do you always bring cheap gossip to the office. It's none of your business either" Rosy said as she rolled her eyeballs.
"How can this not be a frenetic rumor, all this time our President seems like a cold man who will not be able to deal with women except his first love. And suddenly someone saw a figure like him eating lunch with another girl. This is really great news" Maya said excitedly.
"Stop gossiping, you'll give a bad image to our new friend" Rosy said ignoring Maya.
Maya looks at Lucy who she has not seen all this time, she looks at Lucy with a sharp gaze as if she wants to intimidate Lucy directly.
"Owh, it turns out this is the new kid who was told that. Welcome to join here, I hope we can be good coworkers ok." Maya said as she left them.
Lucy just smiled wryly at Maya's behavior that seemed less like her.
"Don't you mind, she's a troublemaker here. If it wasn't for his good work and insight, I think he would have been kicked out of this company before you got in" Rosy explained.
Lucy simply replied to Rosy with a smile. Now his heart was a little worried because there was someone who saw him and Andre having lunch outside earlier. And he could not close his anxiety.
