Inside his office, Lisa and his employees were busy resolving the emergency problem. He was too focused on work that he forgot about his hunger.

However, his employees didn't have an iron will like him. A few stomachs began growling. They blushed in embarrassment.

Lisa inwardly sighed, but outwardly he looked cold, indifferent and serious as always. He glanced at his gold wristwatch. It was already mid-afternoon, way past lunch time.

"The food should be coming soon," he told them.

They nodded and continued working.

Finally, there was a brief knock and the door opened. Bam entered followed by three of Lisa's subordinates from home.

"Hm?" Lisa frowned in confusion. He didn't call for them. Why did they come? His gaze fell on the huge, bulky canvas bags they were carrying.

"Good afternoon, Master. We apologize for disturbing you at work. However, we had to come because the Mistress instructed us to deliver lunch to you and your employees. She is upset that you haven't eaten lunch yet when it's already so late," one of them said.

"Oh." Lisa's frown evaporated, replaced by a soft and gentle expression. He nodded. "Alright. Bring in the food. Everyone, come. My fiancée had lunch delivered for us."

His employees still couldn't get used to seeing their President with a gentle expression. It was already common knowledge in the company that their President loved his fiancée, courtesy of the employees who witnessed him talking to her on the phone on several occasions.

All of the employees at Manoban Corporation had been wondering about the real identity of the President's fiancée. Unfortunately, they still didn't know who she was.

At the moment, the employees present in the office were all ravenous. They eyed the huge canvas bags the President's three subordinates were unpacking on a nearby table.

There were several big and fancy bento boxes that had four tiers each stacked on top of one another. There were also small round containers of steaming hot soup. Carton boxes were opened, revealing different desserts to choose from. A small cooler contained chilled drinks of water, iced teas, juices and sodas.

Bam heated up some water for those who wanted hot tea instead of the cold beverages.

Stomachs growled more loudly this time upon seeing all the food. The eyes of Lisa's employees lit up. Their mouths watered and they swallowed hard after smelling the delicious aromas. They couldn't wait to gobble up all the food. It was a feast.

"Go ahead and get some food," Lisa said, giving them the long-awaited permission.

As the employees were all extremely hungry, they didn't bother acting modestly and immediately swarmed like ravenous, salivating dogs around the table, taking a bento box each.

They were interrupted by a ringing sound. It was Lisa's office phone. Lisa was far from his desk, so he had to walk over to answer it. But before he could even do so, the phone answered by itself.

"Hello, hon? Can you hear me?" a deep robotic voice suddenly sounded.

The employees all froze and looked at their President in alarm. Hearing such an unnatural voice speaking out of nowhere creeped them out. Two of the employees present were from Lisa's tech team. They stood up and marched towards the phone. They already concluded that it was hacked.

"Yes, love. I can hear you," Lisa replied, shocking his employees.

His tech people stopped in their tracks.
