An Encounter at Dinner and Finn’s Outburst

Monica smiled. She thought she must have been overthinking just now. 

A man like Brandon was young and promising. Many women would fancy him. Practically speaking, he would not fall for her. She was older than him and even had a boyfriend. For someone as prideful as Brandon, there was no way he would fall for a woman who already had another man. His ego would not allow it.

"If you don't have anything to do, go out and work. Don't think that just because you bribed me, you don't have to work. I've always been a person who distinguishes work and private matters." Monica pretended to be serious.

"Capitalists," Brandon commented. "They're evil."

Then, he left Monica's office.

After leaving, the smile on his face gradually faded. There was even a trace of bitterness.

He liked her.

He truly liked her. 

Feeling helpless, he lamented that their reunion was not at the right time again.
