Once Rosie had exited the office, Seb turned to Nora with a playful grin, his eyes twinkling with anticipation. "Ah, Miss Nora, what delightful surprise do you have in store for me today? I must say, after your previous feats of shock and awe, I am quite prepared for anything you might throw my way."
Nora returned his grin, setting two small lunch boxes on the table with a mischievous glint in her eye. "Oh, Seb, you flatter me. But I'm sure you thought this the last time as well. And where did that get you?"
Seb chuckled, though inwardly he braced himself for whatever antics Nora had concocted this time. He was determined not to be caught off guard again. Or so he thought.
"So, have you resorted to kidnapping your wife again this time?" Nora teased, her tone light but tinged with a hint of mischief.
