Dan, waiting in Lei's place like a loyal girlfriend, excitedly stood from the couch and grabbed the cake from the table as he heard the sound of the door opening.
Lei arrived, and as usual, Dan couldn't read his face.
However, he knew that Kim Kwan was pretty fond of his boss, so it wouldn't be too hard to get his cooperation for the merging of the companies.
"Congratulations, sir! You are finally—"
However, before he could finish his statement, Lei grabbed the cake and slammed it on his face, rendering him speechless.
The apartment became awfully quiet as the cake fell to the ground, with Dan tasting the icing on his face.
'Pretty good,' he thought.
However, with Lei's reaction, Dan knew that it didn't go well.
With that, he grabbed another cake from the fridge, one that said—'There's still a chance for us!'
"Here, sir," he said in a dejected voice.
