"No need." Nox refused.
"Not eating is good for your stomach," the assistant advised.
"I'll grab a quick bite later." Nox, however, did not seem to care. He instructed his assistant, "You must supervise the progress of the work arranged during today's meeting. It must be completed. Time is tight, and we have no time to lose."
"Yes."
"I'll leave it to you. I'll head off now."
"Goodbye, President Winter."
Nox quickly got into the car and said to the driver, "Green Vine Kindergarten."
"Alright." The driver quickly agreed.
"How long will it take to get there from here?"
"If there's no traffic, half an hour should be sufficient."
Nox looked at the time. "On the way, can you find a place where I can grab something on the go? I haven't had lunch."
He could feel that his stomach was already reacting. The main reason was that he did not have breakfast that morning, so he was starving.
