Samantha’s face was glum.

William pursed his lips when he heard that, his eyes turning darker

A thought suddenly came to Samantha. “William, myptop has been crashing on me recently. Could you lend me your notebook, please?”

William hesitated. “I have a lot of documents saved on myptop.m sure you’ll need it for more than a day or two. Since yourptop keeps crashing, why don’t you just buy a new one?”

“But I haven’t received my sry for the month.” Samantha lowered her head and wrung her hands anxiously.

William put away his documents. “That’s not a problem. Tell me the model and brand you want, and I’ll buy it for you. Take it as an encouragement for the work you’ve done.”

“Really? But William, theptop I’m looking at is a little expensive. It costs a few thousand dors,” Samantha said coyly.

“Come on, let’s go to the mall right now and check it out.”

William stood up, grabbed his jacket from the back of his chair, and left the office with Samantha.

When Rachel was about to take the esctor down and head back, she spotted two familiar figures.

The man was tall and decked out in a gray suit; he stood next to a woman, a clear height difference between them. The woman had on a white pleated skirt with an ordinary short–sleeved shirt, looking youthful and smiling brightly at him.

Everyone loves a cheerful and lively woman, including William.

Rachel stood near the top of the esctor, watching them. It seemed like William had brought Samantha here to buy aptop.

He had the time to apany Samantha to buy aptop, but none to apany Rachel to buy gifts for their elders.

As Samantha was choosing the color of herptop, she could feel a gaze on her. She looked around and saw Rachel standing right next to the top of the elevator on the second floor.

She stood stunned for a moment before shing Rachel a bright smile.

Rachel saw Samantha tugging the hem of William’s shirt.

She was probably telling William that she saw Rachel. William instinctively nced in Rachel’s direction; a look of fright sent ripples across his usual calm and collected demeanor.

But it was only for an instant, and he recovered very quickly.

Since they had seen each other, Rachel thought she should at least go over to say hi. She took the esctor down and approached William and Samantha.

William took a step toward Rachel, and took all the bags in her hands.

“Why didn’t you call me so I coulde over and fetch you? You’re carrying so many things, you must be tired.”

Rachel shook her head, the corners of her lips curling slightly. “Here to buy aputer, Ms. Judd?”

Samantha nodded, seemingly in a good mood, “Yep. Myptop keeps giving me problems. Since I’m not very tech–savvy, I asked William toe with me to help me choose a new model.”

Rachel nodded pensively, the small smile still on her face.

“I see you did your homeworkb, /bthough. Thisptop is thetest model on the market and is selling at a retail price of 7,000

dors. You’re very willing to spend on something for work, I see.

Samantha looked coyly at William, unable to hold back a bright sile, “No, Rachel. William is buying it for me.”

The smile on Rachel’s face froze.
