When she appeared, the already quiet office room became even quieter in an instant.
Everyone was surreptitiously sizing her up, but no one spoke up to greet her, nor did anyone dare to question her.
Upon meeting her gaze, they quickly lowered their heads, pretending not to see.
Evelyn Sherman bit her lip, unable to find an opportunity to explain and could only walk back to her office desk and sit down.
Remembering the follow-up work on the bidding project, she turned on the computer and began organizing documents, keeping busy until noon.
"Beep, beep—" When the text message sounded on her cell phone, she paused for a moment.
Glancing at the screen, she saw a message from Chester Yale reminding her to eat, and she couldn't help but smile.
After saving the document on the computer, she instinctively stood up from her chair, "I'm going to the Staff Cafeteria to get food, does anyone need me to pick up something for them?"
"..." The entire office room was silent as the grave.
