John responded with a nod and answered, “Noted, but please do something about the rest of the parts,
even though they’re fine.”
Upon hearing that, Zack knew what John meant by that. “Alright, I know what to do.” After that, Zack
turned around and headed toward the exit. The moment he opened the door, John saw Dylan walking
past in a hurried manner with some documents in his hands. He then took a look at the time and
realized it was still their lunch break. Therefore, he decided to step out of his office and follow Dylan to
his room just as the latter was opening the door. As soon as Dylan unlocked his room door, John
asked, “You look busy. Have you taken your lunch?”
Stunned, Dylan looked back and gazed at John with a smile. “Oh, I’m not always this busy, except
today, so I merely cut my lunch break short.”
The next moment, John entered Dylan’s office as if he was going into his own and sat down. “Your
health should come first. After all, work will never get completely done, so take a break when you have
to.”
Dylan curled his lips upward and went along with John’s words. “Yeah, work just keeps coming.”
Soon, John changed the subject and said, “Actually, there is something that I’ve been rather curious
about. You told Aunt Jennifer that you have a crush on someone, whom she happens to know as well.
Do you mind telling me who she is?”
Dylan chuckled and said, “Come on! Don’t tell me that matter has been bothering you ever since the
day I brought it up?”
John crossed his fingers on his lap. “Well, it does come across my thoughts once in a while.”
Dylan stared at John and asked, “No offense, John, but are you scared of something?”
John didn’t deny Dylan’s suspicion right away but gave him an explanation instead. “I’m not actually
scared but just curious and worried at the same time.” Then, he added, “Well, I believe you should
know what I mean by that. I’m not worried about anything that could go wrong between you and the
person I’m thinking of. Instead, I’m just a little concerned that you might have unknowingly put this
person in a tight spot.” John let out a sigh and went on to say, “After all, you probably know what kind of
a person Aunt Jennifer is better than any of us. Therefore, I’m saying I just want to stay out of
unnecessary trouble.”
Dylan paused in that instant, knowing he would have never realized his mistake if John hadn’t
reminded him to be subtle. It seems that I have really neglected the possibility that my ambiguous
explanation could put Sophia in trouble. No wonder Mom didn’t seem happy when she saw me and
Sophia together last time. He then sat down and sighed. “I see where you’re coming from. This is my
bad. I should have been more considerate.”
Upon hearing Dylan’s reply, John seized the opportunity to make his point known as he gazed around
the office. “Look, we’re all still young, and we can never get away with our work, which means we’re
probably going to spend the rest of our life here in the office. So, you should probably go see the
outside world more often and get to know more people along the way while you’re still young and
passionate.”
Dylan closed the file in his hands and said, “I see. Alright, you’ve made your point, and I know what to
do now, so say no more.”
John nodded with a smile. “Perfect! Well, it looks like you’re going to bury yourself in work for a while
from now on, so perhaps I should leave you to it.” After that, John stood up and slowly walked out of
Dylan’s office. I guess that should do. After all, we’re all adults, and I trust he is mature enough to read
between the lines for that.
When John returned to his office, he left the door open and waited for William’s return until lunch break
was almost over. It was only then that he finally saw William passing by his office in a calm and
collected manner. As William walked past his son’s office, he turned around to meet John’s gaze and
gave his son a smile.
Noticing his father’s delightful look, John began to act like the nosy Sophia and stood up once again to
make his way to William’s office. Then, he closed the door and stared at William for a while.
