Chapter 85 Waking Him Up
Matthew had already finished his meal. He looked at the time and said, “I’m going to take a thirty- minute nap. Please remember to wake me up at half past one.”
He proceeded to stand up and leave.
Elizabeth was left sitting all alone on the most comfortable seat available. She was
thoroughly enjoying the delicious food.
The only problem was that she could feel everyone around her staring at her. When she turned her head to look, they all retracted their gazes and pretended that they were not looking at
her.
Elizabeth continued to eat her food while keeping her head lowered. The staff cafeteria at
Hilton Group served very good food. It was probably even better than a five-star restaurant.
To her, every single dish here was delicious. As she ate her food, a figure suddenly sat down.
beside her.
Elizabeth slowly lifted her head up, only to see Esme smiling at her.
“Ms. Wade, is the food here appetizing?” he asked.
Elizabeth quickly chewed and swallowed her food. She then drank a mouthful of fruit juice.
“Mr. Mack! You haven’t eaten anything yet, right?” she asked.
It seemed that Elizabeth and Esme were the only ones who arrived fate. Matthew was also
late, but since he was the CEO, he did not need to line up. Because of him, Elizabeth also did not
need to line up for food.
Esme nodded. “I’m always the last one to leave the office. I’m used to it by now.”
Elizabeth lowered her head and continued eating. Esme looked at her as she stuffed her face.
eagerly. It seemed that she really liked the food here.
A smile flitted across Esme’s face. It’s not often that Mr. Hilton adds another table in his
‘office.
Everyone in the company believed that Elizabeth would become the CEO’s wife one day.
Her colleagues were all super jealous of her.
Esme could not deny that he felt the same way because he observed that Matthew treated
Elizabeth differently. Therefore, he wanted to get into Elizabeth’s good books as well.
“Ms. Wade, there’s also some ice cream over there. You should try them. They’re
Haagen-Dazs ice cream,” Esme suggested.
Elizabeth turned her head to look. The food that she ate just now was a little greasy. Besides,
she was also craving something cold. And so, she got up and walked toward the dessert section
of the cafeteria.
A group
of female colleagues was lining up to get some ice cream. When they saw her
coming, they all made way for her.
One of them said, “Ms. Wade! You first!”
Elizabeth had never been treated like this before. She was stunned for a moment before
politely saying to them, “Thank you!”
She opened the fridge and took out a box of ice cream. Then, she walked back to her seat
while the others looked at her.
After sitting down, Elizabeth proceeded to speak while eating the ice cream. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She said, “Mr. Mack, I feel like my colleagues in Hilton Group are very kind. They seem to
look after me.”

They’re so courteous that they even let me cut the line to grab some ice cream. They’re so
Esme almost spat out the food in his mouth. He quickly drank some soup before replying,
“Yeah, everyone in Hilton Group is very kind.”
Of course, Esme did not dare to say what was really on his mind. Everyone is treating you
like the boss’ wife, Ms. Wade. Of course they’re nicel
Elizabeth felt very satisfied after finishing the ice cream. The lunch here is free and also plentiful. It really makes me want to work at Hilton Group until I retire!
When she finished her lunch, she happily returned to Matthew’s office and lay down on the
couch.
Even the CEO’s couch is comfy. It’s so soft! And it feels so good to lie down on it.
Elizabeth set her alarm to ring at half-past one. That was when she would have to wake Matthew up as well.
When it was half past one, Elizabeth woke up and turned off the alarm. She felt refreshed. That was a very good nap.
Without delay, she got up from the couch and did some brief stretching exercises before heading over to the lounge.
She saw Matthew sleeping with his hands above the blankets on his chest. His eyes were closed and his breathing was relaxed. He looks so peaceful sleeping like that.
Elizabeth sat beside him on the bed. Then, she gently shook him to wake him.
“Mr. Hilton, it’s time to wake up,” she said.
Matthew opened his eyes lazily upon hearing Elizabeth’s voice. He saw how close her face
was to him. She was still pouting those pink lips of hers.
