Chapter Forty

A chocolate bread, covered in white sugar.

The very same chocolate bread that Haesung got me from downstairs.

My eyes widened at the sight of it.

Mr. Nam then remarked, "You seem shocked to see this."

I blinked quickly as I looked back at Mr. Nam. I explained, "I was just surprised to see this again, Mr. Nam."

"Again?" he asked, his brows furrowed.

I nodded as I carefully reached for the bread. I smiled as I replied, "Haesung got me one from downstairs. He accompanied me to the Mail Department during his quick break. When he got himself more coffee from the lobby, he said the receptionists were giving away free supplies."

"Ah, I see," he nodded as he answered in a monotone manner. He continued, "Well, this was from a new business partner of ours. They were a newly-established bakery. Most of the time, I don't just accept very new companies. But since chocolate bread is your favourite, I figured that I'd partner with them."

My eyes widened as my head shot up. I looked at him, confused.
