Stella sat on a chair with a cup of milk tea in her hand.
She put the straw in and took a big sip. With her eyes closed, she sighed.
“Hmm! This is so delicious. No wonder it sells like hot cakes!”
After saying that, she whipped out her mobile phone, took a photo of milk tea, and sent it to Miley. She made a voice note afterward.
“Honey, I wish I could share this with you. It’s literally the best I have ever tasted. When we take a trip to Highwyn one of these days, I’ll make sure you taste it.”
When she was done sending the voice note, she picked up her cup and took an even bigger sip. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Matthew’s eyes were on her.
Stella immediately sat up straight.
She glanced at the cup which was still exactly where Fernando left it.
“Mr. Clark, why don’t you take a sip? You’ll enjoy it; trust me.”
Matthew glanced at his watch and then looked at her.
“Lunch break should be over now, right?”
Stella was taken aback.

She bolted to her feet and said, “Sorry, sir. I’ll get back to work now. Carry on.”
She ran out with the speed of lighting the next second.
For the next thirty minutes, Fernando reported the work progress from this morning and dropped a few more documents before leaving.
Matthew was left alone once again.
After pinching the space between his eyebrows for a while, his eyes fell on the cup of milk tea again.
His earlier words made him reach out for it. He took a few sips.
Once he tasted it, his face twisted in a frown.
He moved the cup away from his lips and stared at the content with disgust.
It was just too sweet, but Stella liked it so much.
So much that she took a picture of it and sent it to her husband.
She raved about its taste as if it was something so special.
Why would she like something extremely sweet? Was her life really bitter as she said earlier?
