Louisa signed the other files that were sent by several of her employees quickly. The day began to turn into day. It's time for lunch. Louisa thought, it would be good if she went out for lunch. To be able to get some fresh air that she had been desperately needing for a long time. Louisa closed the file after making sure all the data attached to it was correct. Then immediately stretched the muscles in her body that felt stiff there. Louisa glanced at the clock on her desk. Exactly eleven o'clock. Louisa sighed, and started to reach her hand towards her cellphone which she had been muting for a long time, then opened it. There was a short message from Lenore which Louisa immediately opened and read its contents. 'Hey, I was wondering, can we meet at lunch time? Miliana and I are eager to meet you. There is something we need to say. Can it?' Immediately, Louisa started to type a reply message for Lenore there. 'Of course, I can. How about Lux restaurant? We can meet and have lunch together in there.' It didn't take long, Louisa immediately got a reply to another message from Lenore there. 'Good idea. Miliana and I will be heading there soon. Wait for us okay.' Louisa smiled slightly reading the message, while typing a short reply to Lenore's message. 'Okay.' Immediately, Louisa packed her things into a bag. Likewise with the work files that she has signed for her to take to the editor's and editor's room for them to continue their respective work. The pile of files didn't look like much, but it was enough for Louisa to have a little trouble carrying it. Especially with his bag which is quite large. But that wouldn't be a problem for Louisa. After everything was done, Louisa walked out of her study towards the elevator. As soon as the elevator doors opened, Louisa went straight into it, and stopped on the floor where the editor and editorial room at the Tomkins House company was located. "Mr. Dane, here are the files you need to continue with. I'm done checking on everything. But please check back later on it." said Louisa as soon as she entered the editor's and editor's office. Louisa's sudden arrival, of course, made all the employees in the room stand up hastily at their respective desks. Their faces looked tense and confused. It's a far cry from Louisa's facial expression which can be said to look relaxed there. Not immediately getting an answer from her employees, Louisa suddenly suddenly began to smile in confusion. "What's the matter with you guys? Here's the file, you guys can start working on it all over again." Louisa said while holding out the pile of files in her palms. 'S-well, Boss." Mr. Dane hastily walked quickly towards Louisa and received the pile of files from Louisa's hands. "Okay, see you later." Louisa said after that as she walked away from the editor's and editor's office. Leaving the employee there who was still silent wondering. Because after years of working at the Tomkins House company, never once did Louisa come directly to their editor's and editor's office. This is one of the new things Louisa has done. Mr. Dane turned to look at his co-workers with slightly parted lips. Likewise, his co-workers in the room had almost the same reaction. They both couldn't believe what had just happened. A very rare occurrence. *** Louisa walked into Lux's restaurant with her two slow feet. Enjoy the fresh aroma of coffee, and the aroma of pasta that is appetizing for his stomach right now. Louisa approached the empty table near the restaurant window, and sat there. Not long after, a waiter came to him with an order book and a pen in both hands, and a friendly smile. "Excuse me, this is the menu list. Please choose." He said in a friendly manner while handing him a piece of paper containing a list of the menus served in Lux's restaurant. Louisa accepted it and started reading the menu slowly. "I'd like a cup of cappuccino coffee, and just pasta." Louisa muttered as she handed back the menu sheet to the waiter. For a moment the waitress wrote down Louisa's order on another piece of paper she brought, before finally turning away from there. Louise sighed. She didn't really want to eat at the moment. Although the hunger she felt was enough to make her feel nauseous, but for some reason she didn't really feel like eating heavy food right now. Louisa leaned back on the bench, took out her cellphone from her bag and started looking at the notifications. Empty. No new messages or notifications appeared on his phone. Including from Henry. Still no news since last night. And unfortunately, Louisa already feels homesick now. 'Hey, hey… look over there! Louisa!!" said Lenore in a sudden high pitched voice. Making Louisa startled and looked at Lenore who had a cheerful expression on her face, and Miliana's expression was equally surprised to look at her fiancé. Louisa couldn't help but smile widely at them. Immediately, Louisa got up from her seat and stood there. 'Hey, Lenore... Miliana..." He returned the greeting. 'Hey, Louisa..." Miliana returned the greeting as well. Miliana also began to release her hand from Lenore and began to slowly hug Louisa's body, as well as Louisa who returned Miliana's hug slowly. Before long, Louisa and Miliana let go of their embrace. Louisa also turned to extend her right hand towards Lenore which Lenore quickly accepted, with a passionate hand holding it there. "Gosh, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Since, our engagement, right, Miliana?" Lenore asked while looking at Miliana who nodded her head there. "Right. Moreover, it can be said that it is quite long. And Louisa, didn't tell us at all about anything." Miliana answered in the end. "Forgive me. There's been a lot going on lately, so I really don't have enough time to give news. Come on, sit down. I ordered the food earlier, you can just order right away." Louisa explained with a faint smile on her face. "Don't worry, we already ordered before approaching this table." answered Lenore casually. They sat back there. "So we have news of the death of your secretary, Jane Miller. We are sorry for your loss, Louisa." Lenore said with sympathy clearly visible on her face. Louisa nodded her head with a faint motion. "Of course. Thank you." Louisa was silent for a moment, then started to breathe. 'I don't know how all of this happened in succession. There's a lot Henry and I need to do after Jane's death. And it really was quite a tough thing for both of us." "That means... you and Henry are okay now?" Lenore asked. Remembering how the last time Louisa and Henry interacted was at their engagement party at that time. Louise smiled happily. "Yes, we are fine. Actually, our relationship now is much better than before. Everything felt right, and we just had to live with it like a tide." "In that case, good. Because Miliana and I really need you and Henry's help right now." Lenore said while looking at Miliana who was sitting beside her right now. Miliana looked back at Lenore with a smile. Louisa looked confusedly at the two of them. 'Me and Henry's help? What for?" Miliana turned to Louisa, still with a smile on her face. 'We want you two to be our bridesmaids. The day after tomorrow, the two of us will get married."
