360 The conference in Portland (2)

It's always good to see a familiar face, but somehow, she was uneasy.

Liz remembered that Dr. Snow is the man she admired for many years and if not for several weeks when they worked together and he revealed his romantic interest in her (and almost damaged her career), she would still look at him with stars in her eyes.

Liz thought about his question. Can he sit at her table? Well, it's not a date or anything like that and it's not like she can prevent him from sitting wherever he wants. This is a table for eight people, and she can't hog it for herself. But she still wanted to give him a warning… "You are welcome to sit anywhere. This table included."

Dr. Snow smiled sadly. "I was hoping for a warmer reunion. We haven't seen each other in months. Did my poor judgment leave such a deep stain that you can't forgive me? If I could go back in time, I would not send you those flowers. I would go with chocolates."

Liz thought how his last remark is cheeky.
