In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 137

“Why are you waiting for me?”

Steven Song goes to the trunk in silence and takes out two boxes.

He hands me one of the boxes.

The box is pretty heavy, and I don’t know what is in it.

“Let's go.”

Steven Song says as he leads me inside, “Donny told me about what happened yesterday when you came downstairs so of course I am going to help you too. I found that you were late for work this morning, so I got a chance to help you. Otherwise it would be really hard for you to survive in this company.”

“Thanks.” I say softly, feeling sincere gratitude for Steven Song.

Thanks to his help, otherwise other employees would really think that I have affairs with Steven, course recently I am always come to work late and leave early.

When colleagues see Steven and I carrying stuff upstairs together, they all think we were going shopping for company. They just give me a glance and go back to doing their own things.

It seems that Steven Song's trick really worked.

After carrying the box up the stairs, I am ready to leave.

But Steven Song stops me.

“Don't be in a hurry to leave.”

Then Steven Song opens one box and the rich scent of mangoes comes out.

Yum.

I love mangoes, and when I see him take out a big, red mango, I almost drool.

Plus, I didn’t have breakfast. I feel my eyes lightening up as I look at the box of mangoes.

“Eat one before you go.”

Steven Song cuts a nice mango and hands it to me.

“What kind of mango is it and why does it smell so good?” After eating half of it, I turn to Steven Song and ask.

“Someone else brought it back to me from overseas, I don't know, I don't usually eat this stuff. It happens to be in the trunk, so I use the boxes for materials. If you like it, you can have more, since I don't eat it anyway.”

“I think you can eat one. It's really good.”

I say, giving the other half to Steven Song.

He looks at me suspiciously, but eventually takes the mango and quickly eats it.

“It tastes really good.”

He praises.

“Am I right? I told you it was delicious.”
