Chapter 1042
Catelyn, feeling apologetic when seeing the dark circles beneath Cedrick's eyes, nodded happily. "Alright. You can accompany me to take a
nap!"
When the secretary discovered the safety alert was dismissed, she exhaled deeply. 'I guess Missus is very useful.'
She opened the company's internal group chat and typed out a message with her keyboard.
[Dear, all: From the looks of it, the CEO is in a good mood now. Those who are scared to look for the CEO should take this opportunity now.]
[Oh my god. I have a budget that requires the CEO's approval, and it's been sitting on my desk for a few days...]
[Me, too-my quarterly result isn't ideal. I'm scared he'll give me the ticket!]
Charles also sent a message to the group chat.
[Anyone wants to ask the CEO to consider giving US double pay this month? ]

Since she was a premium guest, the hotel offered premium services and delivery.
She forced Cedrick to push his work aside and used the excuse that she had not eaten to make Cedrick eat with
her. The food she ordered was mostly light and plain. Since Cedrick was not a fan of salad, she ordered blanched
broccoli, roasted Brussels sprouts, cream of peas, and so on.
The chef turned these common ingredients into a luxurious and appetizing meal. Despite that, Cedrick still stared at
the food and furrowed his brow since the dishes were mainly plain in taste and consisted of more vegetables.
"I deliberately ordered the chef to cook these. Look, you got a pimple on your chin." Catelyn took some broccoli
and Brussels sprout and placed them on his plate. "Eat these; they're high in fiber and low in calories. It's good for
your health."
Cedrick looked at the food on his plate with disgust but nonetheless picked up his fork to eat a few seconds later.
Catelyn saw how he enjoyed the food, so she chowed down on her food too, starting with the Brussels sprouts,
which she noted were tasteless.
Suddenly, she heard a comment from the man sitting across from her. "It's tasteless."
"I told you that I told the chef to cook them with less salt and pepper, so it tastes plain," Catelyn explained.
After that, Cedrick quickly finished the food Catelyn gave him.
'Oh, wow. He finished them so fast, even when it was tasteless. I guess he knows he has been quite unhealthy
lately,' she thought.
The food from the hotel always had a good presentation and small portions. After Cedrick finished his food, Catelyn
asked, I only had a little. Do you want more?"
Cedrick furrowed his brow. "I thought you like to eat this?"
"You're less healthier than I am. I can give my portion to you!" Catelyn smiled and picked up her food to move the

At that same moment, the chosen management-level employee knocked on the door and entered with his less-ideal performance result.
Coincidentally, Cedrick was eating the leftover' vegetables Catelyn gave him.
The employee's jaw hung wide upon seeing this, and his eyes threatened to pop out of their sockets.
'Aah! Am I in the wrong place? The CEO has mysophobia, doesn't he? Why is he eating leftovers from another person? Is this really our CEO?'
he thought.
After being pregnant, Catelyn had always practiced eating less during a meal but had more meals over the day. It was the same as her dinner
too. When she was drinking her soup, she saw the management-level employee standing at the door with a shocked expression.
Cedrick did not wish to have people around to disturb their dinner time. Hence, he gave the management-level employee a look.
The management-level employee understood immediately and looked for an excuse to leave the room.
After he was gone, many of the staff heard the news and came to stalk their CEO, who had a complete 180-degree change, from the glass
window outside his room with different kinds of excuses.
Charles looked at them with disdain. 'Why are these people shocked?'
