Chapter 537: Chapter 537: Indulgence
Daniel Marshall’s eyebrows furrowed, his profound eyes narrowing.
He opened a video saved on his phone and stared intently at the screen without blinking.
A little while later, Daniel Marshall opened Grace Ziegler’s thermal lunch box.
Suddenly, the familiar mouthwatering smell of chive dumplings wafted perfectly, Daniel’s eyes were slightly moistened.
Picking up a chive dumpling, Daniel began to eat it in big bites.
The taste, remarkably similar to his mother’s chive dumplings, twisted Daniel’s heart in an inexplicable pain, and a bitter taste emerged in his heart as well.
After finishing one chive dumpling, Daniel picked up a pair of disposable chopsticks and took some pickles to eat.
Although it lacked a little flavor and wasn’t as tasty as his mother’s pickled vegetables, it was the closest flavor to what he missed in Serene City.
Daniel was aware he had been neglecting his sister recently, deliberately keeping her at a distance. Still, he couldn’t continue this way; he needed to mentor her more, and for the sake of his mother’s peace of mind, he should take better care of his sister.
After some hesitation, Daniel called his executive secretary.
“Isabella, starting from today, I want you to teach Grace how to make coffee and note down important points from the meetings.”
A sweet smile appeared on Grace’s face, her expression revealing a hint of shyness, “Chief Daniel Marshall, you’re welcome! It’s me who should thank you for taking care of me and teaching me so much. I’m the one who should be grateful.”
The corner of Daniel’s mouth twitched slightly, forming a shallow smile across his sexy thin lips, “You don’t have to make chive dumplings for me often since they have a strong smell. I’ll ask you to make them when I crave them.”
Grace agreed readily, her soft, affectionate eyes still fixed on Chief Daniel Marshall.
The expression on her face was pure innocence, and her brilliant smile looked harmless.
Daniel’s voice was low and gentle, “Aren’t you going to eat?”
“Chief Daniel Marshall, I’m about to go. How about I treat you to lunch?”
“Thanks, but I’ve already made plans with my wife!”
With these words, Daniel left.
Grace froze in place, feeling a sense of desolation in her heart.
The moment Daniel’s figure disappeared, Grace’s eyes were filled with resentful depths.
She was feeling uncomfortable, an inexplicable anger flaring up within her.
Grace particularly despised Mrs. Olivia Marshall and wished that this woman could disappear immediately.
She prayed earnestly: May this woman not stand in her way!
