After leaving the hospital, Eva headed straight to the company.

There was traffic on the way, so she arrived at the company a bit late, but she didn't expect to run into the same guy from yesterday.

As soon as he saw Eva, the bespectacled guy immediately showed a shy smile and even extended his hand. "Hello, we're coworkers now."

Eva shook his hand.

"I thought you were also here to apply yesterday, but it turns out you've been working here for a while. How did you decide to join this small company? Did you know in advance that the Blackwood Group would invest in them?" In advance? Eva chuckled and replied, "Not exactly in advance, but I definitely knew before all of you."

"Well, you're already in the company after all, while we could only see it in the job listing."

There were other people in the elevator, but no one seemed interested in starting a conversation. Besides the bespectacled guy, Eva didn't see any familiar faces.

It seemed that apart from the bespectacled guy, everyone else who had been in the elevator with her yesterday had been eliminated.

After the elevator doors opened, Eva walked to the left, and the bespectacled guy and the others subconsciously followed her.

After walking for a while, Eva realized they were all following her and couldn't help but stop and look at them in confusion.

"Why are you all following me?"

The bespectacled guy adjusted his glasses and smiled shyly. "It's our first day at work, and we don't know where to go. If we don't follow you, who else should we follow?"

It seemed like they all considered themselves employees and thought that following Eva would lead them to the office.

Indeed, following Eva would take them to an office, but not the employees' office - her private office.

And now it seemed that not only the bespectacled guy thought this way, but the others who had stopped with him also thought the same.

Fine then.

Just as Eva was about to turn around and take them to the office, Tim happened to walk by from the side.

Seeing Eva, he instinctively greeted her. "Boss."

The bespectacled guy and the others: Boss? Who's the boss?

Their eyes revealed confusion.

After greeting Tim and Eva, he noticed the group of people behind her.

Because he personally interviewed all of them, they had already met yesterday, and some were even his former subordinates.

So Tim recognized them immediately and asked, "How did you end up here? The employees' office is not here."

The guy with glasses pointed at Eva and said, "We followed her."

The person behind the guy with glasses pointed at him and said, "We followed him."

After a moment, Tim was perplexed and asked, "What are you doing with the boss?"

The guy with glasses replied, "The boss? Isn't she an employee?"

After asking, the guy with glasses suddenly noticed something and his face turned red as he looked at Eva. "Are you saying she's the boss of our company?" "Yeah, why not?"

The guy with glasses suddenly felt embarrassed and said apologetically to Eva, stumbling over his words. Not only did he mistake this pretty girl as an employee, but he even thought he might pursue her if they became familiar with each other in the future. Now he realized she was the boss... he was really delusional.

"It's alright," Eva smiled. "My fault for not explaining clearly. You guys can go to work."

"Let me take you there," Tim said.

After greeting Tim and Eva, he led everyone away.

The guy with glasses followed timidly behind Tim. "Is she really our boss?"

It was clearly explained just now, but Tim could see through the guy with glasses' thoughts. "What? You still want to pursue her if she's not the boss?"

Sure enough, when Tim said that, the guy's face grew even redder. "Don't talk nonsense, please."

"Hahaha!" Tim laughed loudly. "Young man, what are you afraid of? If you like her, go for it. As far as I know, our boss is still single."

The guy with glasses hesitated, his gaze lighting up again. But after thinking about it, he lowered his eyes in disappointment.

"Forget it, she's so beautiful. Even if she's not the boss, I'm not worthy of her, let alone the fact that she has money."

Upon hearing this, Tim patted his shoulder. "I didn't expect you to have such self-awareness. Just focus on your work. Even if you can't find someone like our boss, you definitely won't end up with someone inferior." The group of people continued their conversation and walked away.

As it was a new company, Eva had many things to take care of. Busy until noon, Tim came to call her downstairs for lunch.

Since the company's canteen hadn't been built yet, the two of them had to go to a nearby restaurant.

During lunch, Eva was quiet. Her phone vibrated, and she took it out to check. It was a message from Jacob.

"Report to Ms. Hansen: Mr. Blackwood had lunch on time today."

Report? On time?

Seeing these words, Eva couldn't help but smile, a hint of amusement appearing in her eyes.

She raised the corner of her lips and replied to Jacob, "OK."

Adrian immediately looked up at the sound of his phone ringing.

Jacob turned to Adrian and asked, "What did she reply?"

Jacob glanced at the message on his phone and could only say to Adrian, "She replied, but... the message was a bit short."

Upon hearing that, Adrian raised his hand and said, "Pass it to me."

Jacob had no choice but to hand his phone over to Adrian.

Adrian glanced at Eva's reply and furrowed his brows deeply.

"A bit short?" he asked.

Jacob pursed his lips and remained silent.

Adrian threw the phone back to him, his previously good mood now gone.

Seeing him sitting there, looking dejected, Jacob tried to console him, "Mr. Blackwood, don't overthink it. Although the message was short, look how quickly Ms. Hansen replied. It shows that she still cares about you." Upon hearing this, Adrian coldly glanced at him and said, "Do you believe that kind of talk?"

"Well, I think it's worth believing," Jacob replied.

"Do you reply to someone you care about with just one word?"

"Mr. Blackwood, you have to understand one thing. I am the one who sent the message, not you. I'm just your subordinate. Is she supposed to talk to me, a subordinate, about everything? That's impossible." In the end, Adrian was convinced by Jacob's words.

"So if it was you, Mr. Blackwood, who sent the message, Ms. Hansen would definitely reply with more than just one word."

Adrian was somewhat moved. "Then I'll send another one."

Without waiting for Jacob to stop him, Adrian sent out another message.

"I had lunch on time. When are you coming in the afternoon?"

Eva's reply came quickly, but the words were still brief.

"After work."
