Leo Grant went to a eting, and Holly Sawyer expertly navigated her way to Leo’s office. Most people in the company already knew about Holly, so they treated her with politeness.
No one dared to block Holly’s path.
Knowing Holly was coming, the heater was turned on in Leo’s office, and as she opened the door, a wave of warmth greeted her.
She really liked this feeling; it dispelled the chill from her body.
Leo’s desk was covered with docunts piled high. Holly sat at Leo’s desk, flipped through the docunts, and then picked up a pen to start working on them.
Hmm, with so many docunts, Leo must be working really hard, right?
She might as well kindly help Leo handle so of them.
"Miss Sawyer, please don’t ss with Mr. Grant’s docunts."
The office door suddenly opened, and a woman with a neat ponytail walked in. She saw Holly flipping through Leo’s docunts and writing on them, instantly frowning.
Leo’s docunts were very important, and even though Holly was Leo’s girlfriend, she shouldn’t be so casual with them.
"I’m helping him handle them."
Holly looked up, speaking slowly, her brows furrowed.
Coming into Leo’s office so casually?
Sheesh, Holly felt quite dissatisfied.
"Miss Sawyer, you don’t understand anything. Mr. Grant prefers to handle his own docunts personally."
Nora Jennings stepped forward, speaking sternly, criticizing Holly’s actions.
As Leo’s girlfriend, Holly could usually act spoiled and willful, but when it ca to work, she shouldn’t interfere.
"He doesn’t mind, why do you?"
Holly closed the docunts on the desk. She looked up, her eyes carrying a hint of coldness.
She was already a bit displeased with Nora entering Leo’s office without knocking, and now Nora was criticizing her, which made Holly genuinely unhappy.
"That’s because Mr. Grant spoils you, Miss Sawyer. But you shouldn’t take advantage of that to act spoiled."
Nora spoke righteously, a look of accusation on her face.
Nora was told by Leo, who had forgotten to take so docunts, to co and fetch them, which is why she entered without knocking.
Holly gave Nora a cold glance, saying nothing.
"Mr. Grant needs the docunts now, so I’m going to take them over. Please don’t ss with them."
Nora took a docunt from the desk and then walked out, but not before reminding Holly once more.
Holly rolled her eyes at Nora, said nothing, and continued working on the docunts.
Since Leo worked so hard, she definitely wanted to share so of his burden.
Leo’s eting took quite a while. Holly had worked through nearly half of the docunts, rubbing her slightly sore hands and stretching lazily.
Handling these things was quite challenging, especially when sleepiness crept in. Holly already felt a bit drowsy at that point.
A half-hour later, the office door opened, and Leo entered, followed by Nora, who was carrying so docunts.
"Were you getting impatient?"
Seeing Holly, Leo’s eyes lit up with a smile. Seeing her really lifted his spirits.
"Not really."
Holly blinked, a smile also gracing her face.
Seeing Leo made her quite happy too.
"How long have you been here?"
Leo walked closer, gently rubbing Holly’s head, his voice incredibly gentle.
Nora stood behind Leo, arms full of docunts, opening her mouth and closing it again, as if wanting to say sothing but stopping herself.
Hmm, seems she wants to complain.
Holly blinked, looking up at Leo. "About half an hour."
She even held out her fingers, counting quietly.
"Sorry for making you wait long. I’ll try not to let it happen again."
Leo pulled Holly into his arms, speaking slowly.
This young girl had waited so long for him. It really made him feel guilty. If he had known she’d arrived so early, he would have ended the eting sooner.
Nothing was more important than the young girl. For Leo, Holly was the most important; everything else, including work, took a backseat.
"No, work is important."
Holly shook her head, saying she wasn’t soone so demanding. In choosing between work and her, she hoped Leo would choose work.
She could take care of herself, be by herself. As long as Leo had free ti to pay attention to her, that was enough.
Leo emphasized, "No, you’re important."
It’s often said that girls need enough security in a relationship, and he intended to give Holly all the security she needed.
"In this half-hour, I wasn’t idle. I helped you with the docunts."
Holly caught Nora’s eye, then looked at Leo, blinking playfully, her tone particularly tender as if seeking praise.
Hmm, Nora wanted to complain?
No need, she could say it herself without Nora complaining.
Did Nora think Leo would bla her? Of course not. Even if she doodled on the docunts, Leo wouldn’t bla her.
But she wasn’t going to be unreasonable either; she wouldn’t do sothing she couldn’t handle lightly, because that would only add to Leo’s burden.
"How much did you manage to do?"
Leo’s lips curved into a smile. Seeing that half the docunts on the desk had been dealt with, he felt very delighted.
The young girl had helped him with the docunts, which certainly made him happy.
"About half. My hands are a bit sore, my neck’s a little stiff, and my eyes hurt a bit."
Holly gently bit her lip, speaking sweetly, describing her discomfort, but her eyes were filled with laughter.
Hmm, she was really feeling a bit uncomfortable; working on the docunts made her sleepy.
Nora lightly bit her lip, watching Holly and Leo with a look of wanting to speak but holding back.
She’d wanted to bring this up to Leo before he ca in, but when he entered, he seed unfazed.
Was Leo too indulgent of Holly? He wasn’t even upset in this situation.
Grant Group was big, and particularly these days, the company was extrely busy. Leo himself had been working overti, dealing with many things personally.
And now, he was actually indulging Holly’s behavior.
"Why are you still here?"
Leo looked back, frowning slightly at Nora, who stood behind him with a blank expression.
His usual secretary was on a business trip, handling other matters, so Nora was temporarily hired.
He only instructed Nora to bring the docunts over, never asked her to stay so long in his office.
"Sorry, Mr. Grant, I’ll leave right after placing the docunts."
Nora hurriedly set down the docunts, her expression sowhat flustered.
"Um, Mr. Grant..."
Just a few steps away, Nora suddenly turned back, looking at Leo with hesitation.
Holly glanced casually at Nora and yawned.
"Speak."
Leo’s tone was cold.
All his gentleness was reserved for Holly.
