Chapter: 224
"Join me for lunch in my office."
Her fingers hovered over the keyboard as she typed a reply. “I was planning to eat at the canteen."
However, she couldn't bring herself to send it. After a moment's hesitation, she erased her initial response and sent a curt "Alright."
As she entered Tyrone's office, she was greeted by a table laden with food.
As Sabrina moved closer, her eyes landed on a familiar packaging sitting next to the lunch box.
Tyrone noticed her gaze shifting to the cupcake and said, "Didn't you have a fondness for this cupcake? I got it for you. Save it for dessert."
She was taken aback, realizing that Tyrone was attempting to appease her with a sweet treat.
Such tactics might have worked in the past. However, the sight of an
Afternoon Time's cupcake now soured her mood completely, to the point where she lost her appetite for Lunch.
She decided to perch herself on the farthest corner of the sofa, distancing herself from the cupcake as if it was something to be feared.
Tyrone took a seat across from her. As they were eating, Sabrina abruptly put down her cutlery and announced, "I'm finished.
Tyrone looked up. "Is that all you're going to have? Eat some more."
Remembering the baby, she forced herself to consume a bit more.
"Thank you for the meal." After finishing her meal, she promptly got up to leave.
As he observed her impassive expression, Tyrone furrowed his brows and reminded her to take the cupcake.
The sight of the package on the table was enough to make Sabrina uncomfortable.
Without the enticing appearance, the cupcake lost its appeal to her.
The dessert was filled with chocolate, a flavor she found too bitter to enjoy.
But it was too late to reveal her distaste.
Sabrina reluctantly took the cupcake back to her office.
