Chapter 128: Pregnancy's Little Thoughts (2)

At 7:20, Edward Woods, Rusell Henris, Howard Coleman, and Madeleine exited the office, bidding Steve Burton—who was still processing files in his office—goodbye as they left one after another.

At 7:35, Maya Mitchell put down her mouse, her tone tender as she asked Ruby Gregory, "Ruby, you haven't finished yet?"

Ruby, who it seemed was diligently but slowly filling out the form, paused upon hearing Maya's voice. She looked up and shook her head at Maya.

Maya glanced at the lit-up CEO's office, briefly contemplated, and kindly offered Ruby, "Do you need help? It's already past seven; I don't know what time will it be when you finish."

Of course, she didn't need help. All she wanted was to drag out this bit of work until only she and Steve remained in the top-floor office.

Ruby shook her head and declined," No need, thank you. I'll be finished soon."
