My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) -
Chapter 1189
I nodded. I kept hearing Freya's words in my mind and knew that I was a little too stubborn.
In the kitchen, Valerie had prepared some dishes. After thinking for a while, I looked at her and said, "Mom, I want to go to Roberts Group to send Hendrix something to eat later. Do you have a lunch box at home?"
She nodded with a smile and was so happy to oblige. "Yes, yes, there are several of them. I have a special insulation box here somewhere. I'll look for it for you!"
Shortly after, she found a three-layered insulation box. It was exquisite and elegant, and its insulation function was very good.
Perhaps it was because she was in a good mood, she made quite a few dishes for Hendrix. After she had prepared them for Hendrix, Freya carried Oliver down and looked at her, saying, "Who is going to deliver food?"
"It's Arianna. She's going to send it to Hendrix!"
Freya looked at me and said, "Then you should take two boxes. There are so many thermal lunch boxes at home. You can take two. It would be better if you eat with him. Otherwise, by the time you finish eating lunch here, he will be hungry."
Valerie's heart ached for me and she said in disagreement, "You can eat a little before going."
I thought that Freya's words made sense, so I nodded my head and said, "Mom, can you help me get two?"
Under the Roberts Group's building.
I pulled up the car and called Evan. After a while, he answered the phone. Evan said, "Hi, Mrs. Roberts!"
"Evan, is Hendrix busy? I'm outside the company. I don't know if he had his lunch or not. I brought him lunch," I said, feeling a little nervous.
Evan immediately said, "Mr. Roberts is in a meeting. I'll pick you up. Mrs. Roberts, please wait for a moment."
A few minutes later, Evan went downstairs, trotted to me, took the two insulated lunch boxes from my hand, and said with a smile, "If Mr. Roberts knew you were coming, he would be very happy!" I felt a little guilty. The person who should have apologized first was me.
When we entered Hendrix's office, Evan asked me to wait there while Hendrix finished up in the meeting. As I sat alone in the large office, I considered the furnishings. I couldn't help noticing that the design of this office seemed to have been upgraded. The interior design now was arranged in a black and white style, simple and graceful.
There was a row of bookshelves in the rest area. The books on them were all collections. Some of them were worn out probably because they were read often, but it did not affect their value.
Seeing that there were no green plants in the office, I couldn't help but feel a little confused. When the secretary brought me tea, I couldn't help but ask her, "Why is there no green plants in Mr. Roberts's office?"
The secretary paused for a moment before lowering her head and saying, "Mr. Garland said that Mr. Roberts gave that instruction. He said that you didn't like it. In the past, there was a Miss Hammer who added it and made you angry! Hence, in Mr. Roberts's office, there has never been a single green plant anymore."
After shocking me, she naughtily stuck out her tongue and left with a smile.
It occurred to me that when I was in Ucrebury, Chloe had been Hendrix's secretary. At that time, she had added a lot of green plants in Hendrix's office. Because I knew that she had ulterior motives, I lost my temper with Hendrix. But I didn't expect that Hendrix had remembered that
incident. And now there were no green plants in the office.
A few minutes later, the door was pushed open and Hendrix came in. I was a little sleepy.
Seeing him looking at me with a smile, I opened my mouth and blurted out with a guilty conscience, "My mom said that you left too fast and didn't stay for lunch, so she asked me to send it to you."
