She glanced at him: "We only sat together for a chat. It's not as if we did anything beyond touching hands. Do you have to be so rude to him?"

The man did not respond to her. He approached the security officer in the parking lot to receive his keys, coldly asking, "Where's the car parked?"

The security officer answered politely, "Sir, your car has been parked on floor B2, on lot number 208."

Jennie turned to look at Henry, who had also followed them out. Although Henry was unclear on the situation, he kept feeling that he couldn't even protect himself right now. He did not speak, and the moment he met Jennie's gaze, he quickly turned his head away. He caught up to Lisa's pace and called out to him, "CEO Manoban..."

When they finally sat in the car, Lisa sat in the back. He did not pay attention to Jennie or look her in the eye even after she climbed in.

He lowered his head to scan through a few documents placed on the backseat; his expression was still poor and ugly.

Since he wasn't speaking, Jennie did not speak either. The man flipped through the documents with his thin, long fingers. He acted as though she was not present.

Henry checked the time as he drove. He then gathered up his courage to disturb the overly silent atmosphere in the car. "CEO Manoban, this morning's meeting ended quite early. Would you like to continue with your late afternoon schedule? Or should we return to the hotel? It's already past 12:00 p.m. Both CEO Kim and you have yet to have lunch. Should we find a suitable place to eat something first?"

"Sure," Jennie immediately agreed. Coincidentally, she was also hungry.

The man indifferently glanced at the way she appeared to brighten at the thought of eating and answered coldly, "Anything."

Since he was finally willing to speak, Jennie turned to glance at him. "Korean food or western food?"

Lisa saw that she was acting open, as though nothing had happened. His gaze turned cold, and he did not respond.

Jennie was perceptive and glanced away. She did not look at him again as she made the decision for them. "We've been having Korean food for the past few days, yet we haven't encountered any particularly good restaurants. Let's have western food today."

Henry saw that CEO Manoban did not speak and continued driving. He searched their surroundings for a suitable western restaurant.

After arriving at the restaurant, Jennie handed the menu to them to order. Lisa tossed it to Henry and told him to order.

Henry continued trembling. "Um, CEO Manoban, although I understand your tastes, I don't know much about CEO Kim's. Why don't the both of you order?"

Jennie had no plans of ordering. She was fine with eating whatever. She tossed Henry a look and indicated for him to hand the menu to Lisa.

Lisa also had no plans of receiving the menu.

The man spoke, as though his words did not hold deep meaning, "Order whatever you like. Right now, I don't even understand your tastes and foresight in picking men, how could I possibly know what you like to eat."

Jennie: "..."

What did he mean? Was he saying that her attitude to Song Kang was better, and mocking that her tastes and foresight in picking men were poor?

Henry: "..."

Was CEO Manoban jealous?

"We sat closely because the seats were pre-arranged. In recent years, Song Kang has been taking care of me. There's nothing unsuitable with chatting more with him. Furthermore, Song Kang has been chasing me for three years, and we're both mature adults. Nothing has ever happened between the two of us, and we only touched hands for a moment to speak. Do I seem like such a frivolous person?"
