Ella Lacey had arrived at Building 6 and, guided by the floor plan, she found the office on the third floor dedicated to VIP guests.
Reaching the door, she didn't bother to knock and promptly rushed inside as though she could fly.
Arthur Lindsey was sitting at his desk, going through his lecture notes with an air of natural dominance and a cold, unapproachable demeanor.
Ella didn't seem to care about that. She dove straight into his arms and threw herself upon him, melodramatically cooing, "Arthur, I missed you so much!"
"How much did you miss me?" Arthur didn't push her away, but his gaze remained fixed on his PowerPoint on the computer.
"I missed you so much that I couldn't eat or drink, I could only think about you ...heeheehee." Ella giggled slyly, showing off her full row of baby teeth.
"Get off!" Arthur knocked her forehead gently.
For a girl who entertains fanciful and unrealistic thoughts, he has always been strict about discipline.
