Chapter 352: We deserve a little fun
Demitri arrived at the office in the afternoon and made his way directly to the reception desk. Nora was engrossed in her work, her fingers swiftly moving over the keyboard, when the sound of someone clearing their throat caught her attention. She lifted her head and was met with Demitri’s familiar presence. Offering him a polite smile, she greeted him professionally.
"How may I assist you, sir?" she asked, maintaining a formal tone.
Demitri’s brows furrowed slightly. "Don’t call me ’sir,’" he said with mild displeasure.
"You hold a higher rank than me," Nora replied.
Demitri chuckled, shaking his head. "Are we in the military?"
She gave him a small smile but chose not to argue.
"Do you have any free time after work?" he asked.
"I do. Why?" Nora inquired, tilting her head slightly.
"Umm... my grandmother wants me to bring you home," he admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. "She’s grown quite fond of you. But more than that... she wants us to be together." He let his words linger before adding, "Finish your work first. Then we can talk about it. How does that sound?"
Nora studied him for a moment before she finally nodded. "Sure."
A small smile tugged at Demitri’s lips. "Thanks," he said before turning away and heading toward the elevator.
