Chapter 705

Raising his eyebrows, Allen asked. “Aster?”

Larissa shook her head, “No.”

*Hmm? Who is it? Allen was surprised.

When Allen saw Lewis, his face fell “she your boyfriend?” Allen remarked sullerly.

Although Larissa noticed the change in his allitude, she did not think too much of it.

“He is my cousin. Lewis Logan.”

She introduced him to Allen.

The expression on Alen’s face immediately cleared up. He stretched out his hand toward Lewis with a smile.

“Mr. Logan, nice to meet you.”

Lewis had already heard of Allen from Larissa.

Knowing that he was a good superior to Larssa, Lewis returned the courtesy with a warm greeting as well “Nice to meet you. Mr. Grint”

After they were both introduced, Larissa explained the situation to Lewis. “I’m going to have a meal with my boss and colleagues. Do you want to join?”

Lewis had no reason to reluse. The other colleagues in Larissa’s department had worked with her for many years, and they were cuite close. When they heard of Larissa’s resignation, all of them gave her a tearful hug goodbye.

“Allen’s going to be sad.” one of the colleagues teased Allen, When Allen shot him a glare. The colleague quickly added, “He’s sad because the subordinate whom he brought up will be Iraving.”

Allen placed his arm across Larissa’s shoulder and continued. “Of course, all my wers for the past few years has gone down the drain. You have to compersale me for that Although he said it in a joking manner, Larissa tell somewhat guilty.

“How can I compensale you?” she chimed in with a smile and asked in a humorous tone.

Til let you know when I’ve thought about it.” With a secretive smile, Allen turned around and urged the other colleagues, “Alright, let’s decide on which restaurant to go to.”

Finally, they decided on a fancy restaurant. Allen was a frequent customer there, so he managed to reserve a table last minute. Their group didn’t have to wait in line at the door like other patruns who didn’t have a reservation When they got to their seats, everyone started singing Allen’s praises.

“Allen’s the best!”

“If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have the chance to enjoy such wonderful steak!”

“In my opinion, Allen is as charming as a princer Larissa didn’t expect her colleagues to lawn so much over Allen. She didn’t want to seem left out so she tried to think of what compliments to say.

When Larissa linally opened her mouth to speak, someone else mentioned her name, it’s all because of Larissa that we had the chance to enjoy such sumptuous food”

“That’s right! Thank you so much, Larissa!”

“It’s such a shame that Larissa has to leave! When can we have a meal like this again?

“Larissa, won’t you think twice about resigning?”

After composing hersell she shook her head with a smile, “I can’t, sorry.”

“Don’t make things difficult for Larissa.”

Allen tried to speak up in Larissa’s delense, but the rest of the colleagues ganged up on him.

“Allen, can’t you see that we are trying to help?”

“Don’t you want Larissa to stay back?”

“Allen, aren’t you the person who wants Larissa to continue working here the most?”

“Well it’s not exactly a bad thing for Larissa to leave, Allen wouldn’t have to take so much stress on himself. Since both of you aren’t colleagues anymore, it would be easier to be in a relationship. No one at work would talk bad about Larissa.”
