221: This must be your lucky day, New Girl!

This must be your lucky day, New Girl!

After she was introduced to people from the relevant departments, Finland followed Ruth to attend two meetings and took the minutes of the meetings. She was very happy because she learned a lot of new things from the projects they were working on; she couldn't wait to get further involved.0

When lunchtime arrived, Ruth invited her to eat at the restaurant on the 30th floor. Lunch hour ran from 12.00 to 14.00, so employees could eat whenever they wanted to avoid congestion of visitors.

When Finland and Ruth arrived, the dining room was not full because it was only 12 o'clock. Ruth liked to have lunch early and quickly, so she could attend to two more meetings after lunch.

Finland was amazed to see the big and elegantly arranged restaurant. What a very classy company, she thought. She felt fortunate to get the opportunity to work in a company of this size, as compared with LTX International, the only other company she had ever worked at.

[Are you having lunch on the 30th floor?]

When Finland just sat down at her table, an SMS from Caspar came in. Ah, yes... this morning Caspar invited her to lunch together. Finland forgot because so much had happened that morning and Ruth invited her to lunch.

[Yeah... I'm with Ruth, my supervisor. Where will you eat?] Asked Finland.

[I will be there.]

[B... but we can't eat together, people will get suspicious...]

[It is okay.]

Ugh, Finland immediately became nervous. It was only her first day at work. She did not want to create a scene where Caspar came and sat to eat with her. Restlessly, she quickly ate her food and wondered how she would excuse herself if Ruth suspected something.

"Why are you eating in such a hurry?" Ruth asked in surprise. Finland, who did not realize that she had been munching her food too quickly, immediately became aware of her surroundings, and shook her head while blushing.

"Uh... sorry, the food is really good, I haven't eaten this kind of food for a long time..." she replied awkwardly.

Ruth looked at Finland with a look of pity. She though that Finland hadn't eaten such nice food for a long time. Now, Ruth could only guess how difficult Finland's life must be.

"It's okay... The food here is for free and you can eat as much as you want." She smiled understandingly, "Just enjoy."

"Thank you..."

The door opened and, Caspar entered the restaurant, followed by Ben. Finland suspected that Caspar had entered the restaurant because suddenly she heard muffled shrieks and then the sound of people whispering around her. Ruth turned toward the door and her face suddenly lit up.

"Gosh... this must be your lucky day, New Girl..." she said happily as she grabbed Finland's shoulder, "That's our boss. He just came in. Usually he doesn't eat here... But today, you are very lucky, he came, so you can see him for yourself. "

Finland, who was sipping her juice, choked when she heard Ruth's words. Her eyes looked towards Caspar, who was walking in, and for a moment their eyes met. Caspar winked at her then took a chair at another table not far from them, but in a position that made it easy for the two to observe each other.

Finland's heart instantly thumped loudly. She smiled faintly as she nodded slowly.

Ahhh... apparently this was what Caspar had planned. This way they could eat together without having to greet one another and uncover Finland's identity.

The girl then continued eating with a happy heart and smiling face. She was very proud because the employees in the office seemed to respect and admire her husband.

"Jeez... He is eating lunch here! I can't believe this..." Ruth whispered excitedly. "What do you think about our boss?"

"Eh?" Finland looked up in surprise. "I have no opinion… Why?"

"You're not interested in him? Are you normal or not?" Ruth grumbled.

"Why... do we really have to be attracted to a man just because he's handsome? Someone like that must already have a girlfriend or a wife..." Finland answered casually.

"No way. I heard gossips that our boss often changed girlfriends, but that is mostly because he is very handsome and there are sooo many women throwing themselves at him." Ruth said excitedly.
