Chapter 23 Check on my wife

• The next few days, everything was normal. Anthony never attempted any mischief and Estelle let down her guard. Perhaps, her words were taken more seriously than she thought. By the time she finished her departmental rounds, it was time for lunch and she was already tired. As soon as she got to the office, she was met with another pile of files, as Anthony sat on his desk, majestically sipping his coffee.
• Resigned to fate, picks up the files one after the other, and begins sorting them according to the order of preference. She could feel Anthony's gaze on her the whole time but was unperturbed. "I have ordered lunch for you," Anthony said out of the blue.
• "Thanks but am not hungry." An embarrassing rumble like a wave of the sea was heard in her belly just as the words came out. Her cheeks were red with embarrassment. She frowned guiltily. "I will go for lunch when am through with work. I don't need any favors from you." A smirk appeared at the corner of Anthony's mouth.
