Chapter 1083

Chapter 1083:

“Anyway, it’s been hard on you, darling. Are there any documents you need to take home? I’ll help you pack.”

Susan listed a few items, and Dane listened attentively before standing, his tall frame moving gracefully toward the desk.

“Knock, knock, knock.”

A knock at the office door drew both Susan’s and Dane’s attention, and Docie stepped in, schedule in hand.

“Miss Riggs, I’ve brought today’s schedule.”

Docie handed the schedule to Susan, her head tilting slightly as she sneaked a glance at Dane, who stood nearby, observing.

Dane wore a perfectly tailored black suit, a color that might seem dull on others but, with his commanding height and distinguished features, looked exceptionally striking. He stood there with a folder in his long, well-defined fingers.

The light pouring through the floor-to-ceiling windows highlighted his unmatched handsomeness, casting a soft, radiant glow around him.

Docie had heard Kori describe Susan’s fiancé as incredibly handsome. At the time, she’d nodded, curious but skeptical, questioning if he could surpass a star’s looks. When Docie finally met him, she realized Kori hadn’t exaggerated one bit. Susan’s fiancé had striking looks, an impeccable physique, and a magnetic charisma that could easily rival a star’s.

“Docie?”

Dane’s gentle voice carried through the office as he paused what he was doing.

Towering over Docie, Dane glanced down, his long eyelashes catching her attention.

“I’ve heard a lot about you from Susan. I’m her fiancé.”

Dane usually maintained an indifference toward those outside his family, but since Docie was Susan’s student, he made a rare exception to converse with her.

As Dane spoke, Docie couldn’t help but notice how exceptionally pleasant his voice was. His unhurried tone added an intriguing layer of mystery to his presence.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Johns.”

Docie’s heart skipped a beat as she quickly looked away, suddenly feeling shy about meeting Dane’s gaze. She noticed the subtle shift in his tone, moving from detached to gentle as he finished speaking.

“Miss Riggs, if the schedule is in order, I’ll take my leave.”

Susan remembered her recent agreement with Dane about working from home. Placing the schedule on her desk, she turned to Docie.

“The schedule looks fine, Docie. When you step out, please let the chief secretary know there will be a meeting with the department heads in an hour. I’ll be working from home starting today, so some arrangements need to be made. If you run into any issues, feel free to call me or visit me at home.”

“Miss Riggs, you’re working from home?”

Surprised, Docie instinctively glanced at Dane, who was nearby organizing some documents.
