Chapter 946 - Lunch Together

Finland put her bag in her office then walked following Mrs. Garnett to tour the Schneider Group office to show her the important places in the building and all their facilities.

She would undergo three days of training with the assistant HRD manager to familiarize herself with the work culture and system in the Berlin office which might be a little different compared to their office in America.

Finland just accepted all the training without protest. Even though you could say that she knew inside and out about her family business, she felt that she had to follow all the existing protocols and rules so as not to raise suspicions.

After Mrs. Garnett finished showing her everything, she then left Finland to start her work. When the girl returned to the room, Caspar had arrived and was sitting on a chair in his office. He immediately called the "personal assistant" to come in.

"Hey ... how do you feel about this office?" asked Caspar, rising to his feet when he saw his wife walking through the door. He hugged Finland's waist and kissed her lips tenderly.

As usual, he was very confident that no staff would dare to enter his room without him asking them to come. So, he relaxed in showing affection for his wife.

"Hmm ... this is great. It's my first time here. I think I like the atmosphere better than the office in New York," Finland said, kissing her husband back.

"I'm glad you like it. I purposely ordered five thousand flowers to deliver to in this building, to welcome your return to the corporate world," said Caspar, looking at his wife closely.

Finland nodded with a smile. "I know. Thank you. The flowers are so beautiful ..."

"Ahahaha ... I am happy you like them. You knew they are from me.. hahaha."

"They reminded me of the time when I was still working in Singapore and you bought all the flowers in the country," said Finland with a laugh. "You were over the top back then."

"Don't forget, I also bought all the flowers in New York on Valentine's Day," Caspar added.

The two then laughed. Ahh ... in the past, Caspar often did thngs in over the top manner, but that was what made Finland love him even more. Her husband never hesitated to show his love for her.

"Are you tired? You did a tour around the building earlier, right? Let me massage your feet," said the boss as he carried his wife to the sofa and then took off her shoes.

"Ehh ... what are you doing?" asked Finland in surprise. "What if anyone saw us?"

Her eyes immediately moved toward the door in a panic, and her expression was worried. Caspar just laughed at his wife's anxiety.

"Don't think about it. No one will dare to enter this room if I don't tell them to come," he said, comforting his wife.

He started massaging his wife's feet with great affection. Finally, Finland stopped protesting. The massage was delightful and she felt very pampered.

Ahh .. if outsiders saw what happened, they would definitely be scratching their heads because the big boss was massaging his assistant's legs.

Ahh ... if they only knew.

After fifteen minutes in that position, Finland finally cleared her throat and pushed her husband's shoulder to get up. "That's enough. It is good. Thank you, Honey.. Now, I'll sit at my desk and get to work. I think there's so much to do here."

Finland got up and kissed her husband on the cheek. She then put her shoes back on and hurried out of Caspar's room.

"Let's have lunch together later," said Caspar before his wife left. Finland just turned and nodded with a smile.

It's so nice to be back in the corporate world, Finland thought with a happy heart. She typed in some important schedules and called the secretaries and other assistants to confirm meetings and appointments. 

She was in such a good mood that she was subconsciously humming while working. Caspar, who was reading reports in his room, smiled to himself when he heard his wife hum.

Ahhh ... it feels good to get a new atmosphere like this with his wife.

When lunchtime arrived, the employees who were eating at the office restaurant on the 30th floor became surprised when their new boss turned out to be eating there too.

In the last week, since he came to Berlin, he had never appeared to eat with employees like now. However, today he suddenly came and ate here with his assistant.

Ahhh .. these two people look so charming, they thought in awe. Caspar and Finland, who had been together for decades, had been used to attracting people's attention, and they did not seem awkward at all. 

They took their food and sat down to eat together. When she saw Mrs. Garnet walked into the restaurant, Finland immediately waved her hand and greeted the middle-aged woman.

"Mrs. Garnett, want to sit with us?" she asked kindly.

Mrs. Garnett was stunned to see Finland and Caspar eating casually together at the company's restaurant. They kindly invited her to join them. Feeling bad, Mrs. Garnet finally nodded and walked towards them.

"Good afternoon, Sir," she said, nodding respectfully at Caspar. "We've met several times at company meetings."

Caspar nodded. "That's right. I still remember you, Mrs. Garnet from HRD, right?"

"Ahh .. You still remember," Mrs. Garnet looked even more pleased. She knew their big boss was kind, but it was still hard to believe that a man this powerful was so friendly. She was in awe of the Schneider family.

From what she had heard, not a single member of the family was arrogant and casual, like many other members of the wealthy family. Even though they were reclusive and didn't socialize much, in everyday life they were all very friendly and humble. What an example, she thought.

"I'll order some food first," said Mrs. Garnet, smiling. She put her bag on the chair and then walked to the food counter to order the lunch she liked.

"We must not always have lunch together," said Finland after Mrs. Garnet left. "People will be suspicious. I also need to socialize with the other employees."

Caspar wasn't really willing, but he knew his wife was right. Finally, with pursed lips, he had no choice but to nod.

"But we should at least have lunch together twice a week at the office," he said, trying to negotiate.

Finland rolled her eyes. "We already have breakfast and dinner together every day. Aren't you tired of seeing me all the time?"

"Not tired. Never have and never will," said Caspar with a sweet smile.

Ahh ... well, they had been married for over 45 years now, and never once did he feel bored with his wife. They never even fought. His life with this woman was very peaceful.

"Gosh .. you are still a playboy," commented Finland with a smile. "You always know what to say to please a woman."

"Hey, hey ... I'm not like that, okay," Caspar said in a tone of protest. "I'm only like this to you. I've never been like this to other women after we are together."

Finland smiled wryly. She almost pinched Caspar on the cheek and kissed him, but luckily she realized they were in a public place and she managed to restrain herself. Uff ... otherwise, you can imagine what kind of excitement would be going on in this office.

Meanwhile, the employees who were eating around them seemed to be watching the boss and assistant with curious eyes. Quiet whispers filled the restaurant when they saw the closeness of the two new people in their office. One was their big boss and the other was his assistant.

"Sssh ... they look really close, huh. People said they're having an affair."

"But I heard from the assistant to HR manager, the assistant is already married. Her husband is German too. How come they have an affair?"

"Hey .. it's not good to gossip about other people, you better take care of your own work," said one of the older looking staff, who looked wiser than her peers.
