271 - You'll Get There Soon
Meanwhile, Victor is just standing behind the glass office walls, looking at the outside view with so many thoughts. When Judy enters that office and informs him that she has finished packing Viona’s stuff, Victor doesn’t give any response.It makes Judy a bit reluctant to disturb him even more. So she just continues walking to her working desk. But there’s almost nothing she needs to do at the moment, and it only makes her even more awkward with that silence.Victor is still standing there until the next few hours. Only when it’s time for lunch, Judy has something that she can use to attract Victor’s attention.“Hey, I’m going out for lunch. Need me to bring you something?” she asks.It manages to shake Victor’s mind. He turns slightly at first, but then grabs his phone on the working desk and decides to join Judy for lunch.“Why don’t I just go with you?” he says with a slight smile.“Nice, why don’t you just treat me then,” replies Judy by closing it with her childish teehee.When

They said that the boss of that company is a shady one, that he works with some gangsters or mafia. There was a story that he once scammed someone at an auction for 1 million dollars. You better leave that company dude. They have no future with a boss like that,” says Ellis as he slightly knocks Victor’s arm with his elbow.But Victor ignores him and just starts talking with someone through the phone. “Chappy!

Lucy doesn’t say a word. Her face looks so blank, not knowing how to give an answer to that question.But it’s not like Victor is waiting for an answer from her.
