I stood beside Noah staring at Emma and Dee’s mother, Eve, sitting opposite us. Shortly after they settled down on their chairs, the door opened and Nicky walked in with a file in his hand.
“Boss, the paper you told me to prepare is ready,” he announced as he marched to the desk and placed the file in front of Noah.
Getting up, Noah grasped my arms all of a sudden and made me sit on his chair.
“Noah, what are you doing?” I questioned, trying to get up.
“No, just sit. I can discuss this matter standing. It is not good for you to stand for a longer time,” he insisted, pushing my shoulder.
He didn’t spare me a second to deny it as he pushed the file on the desk towards Eve and said, “Even though we have it all prepared you should give it a read.”
Eve glanced at the file first and then raised her head, glancing at Noah. “Um! What is this paper for?” she asked, sounding confused.
