Looking at N''s stubborn expression, Damon couldn''t help but smile, a hint of affection in his eyes.


    "Alright, I must have misread the situation," he yed along.


    Surprised at his amodating tone, N felt a sweet flutter in her heart.


    "Okay, I''m going to take a shower. If there''s nothing else, I''m closing the door now," she said.


    "What do you want for breakfast tomorrow? I''ll make it for you," Damon offered.


    "Anything," N replied.


    Fearing Damon might continue prying, she quickly closed the door.


    Leaning against it, she let out a soft sigh, patted her still-warm cheeks, and tried to calm herself down.


    Despite knowing each other for so many years, her heart raced whenever she faced Damon. Even just locking eyes with him made her cheeks flush.


    After regaining herposure, she grabbed her clothes and headed for the shower.


    The next morning, N came downstairs to see Damon bringing out breakfast from the kitchen.


    She paused. She had assumed he was just being casualst night, but here he was, actually making breakfast for


    her.


    As she reached the dining table and saw all her favorite dishesid out, she couldn''t help but ask, "Why did you make so much?"


    "You didn''t tell me what you wantedst night, so I made a little bit of everything. Take the leftovers to share with your coworkerster," Damon suggested.


    N pulled out a chair and sat down, replying, "Thanks, but you don''t have to make breakfast for me anymore. You''re so busy. Don''t waste your time in the kitchen."


    Damon raised an eyebrow. "N, you''re just as important as work to me."


    Meeting his gentle gaze, N felt her face heat up again and quickly looked away. "Eat quickly, or it''ll get cold."


    After they finished breakfast, Mason finally came downstairs.


    "Good morning, Daddy! Good morning, Mommy!" he greeted.


    After greeting them, he climbed onto the chair next to N and asked, "Mommy, I want the meatballs."


    The meatballs were far from him,pletely out of reach.


    N grabbed a few meatballs for Mason and poured him a ss of milk.


    Mason''s face instantly fell he hated milk. Every time he had to drink it, it was a struggle.


    Seeing his face scrunch up, N couldn''t help butugh. “Didn''t I tell you? You have


    to drink milk to grow tall and strong! Just one ss a week, okay?"


    "Fine," Mason relented.


    Reluctantly, he picked up the ss of milk and started drinking.


    After breakfast, the driver took Mason to school as usual while Damon and N headed to the office.

    N brought the extra breakfast Damon had made to share with Ruby and Leon.


    As Ruby ate, she looked at N. "N, why are you suddenly bringing us breakfast? You''re not going to make us work overtime, are you?"


    The mere thought made her pancakes taste a little less appealing.


    N chuckled. "No, don''t worry."


    "That''s a relief," Ruby replied.


    After finishing the morning experiments, N went to the top floor as usual to have lunch with Damon.


    When she arrived at the CEO''s office, she noticed no one was at their desks. A hint of surprise crossed her face. Were they all in a meeting today?


    Just as she reached the door of Damon''s office, she heard his cold voice from inside. “Don''t let N know about this yet."
