Chapter 384:
Cayson tried to stifle his laughter but couldn’t help but burst out in amusement.
Elianna’s face flushed with anger as she shouted, “How could you say such a thing to me? This is utterly disrespectful p>
“Grandma, please don’t be upset. I’m sure Yelena didn’t mean anything by it,” Bella said, casting a quick glance at Yelena. “Yelena, you need to apologize to Grandma p>
Yelena looked at Bella with a feigned look of innocence, thinking to herself that she could play the “innocent” game just as well.
With a gentle tilt of her head, Yelena said, “Grandma, you’re not really angry, are you p>
Elianna snorted coldly, her expression unyielding as she remained silent.
Yelena seized the opportunity and said, “Grandma, I know you’re not mad at me. Your heart is as vast and forgiving as the ocean p>
Elianna didn’t want to see Yelena’s antics any longer, fearing that continuing the exchange could only anger herself further.
She shot Yelena a sharp look and said, “Aren’t you supposed to be heading to work p>
“Yes, we’re all devoted to our work. It’s my happy place — truly invigorating p>
Yelena and Cayson exchanged a knowing glance before swiftly exiting the dining room, leaving Elianna no time to react.
Once they were inside the car, they looked at each other and burst into laughter.
Cayson studied Yelena’s radiant expression, her beautiful eyes narrowing yet unable to hide the sparkle within.
They seemed to hold the shine of the entire galaxy. Yelena sensed Cayson’s gaze and cast a suspicious glance at him.
Cayson cleared his throat, maintaining his composure despite being caught, and said, “You have a beautiful smile, Yelena. You should smile more often p>

Yelena raised an eyebrow and replied nonchalantly, “Why should I smile if there’s nothing worth being happy about p>
She had no intention of forcing a smile just to please others.
Cayson was completely taken aback, unsure how to react. He had intended to encourage Yelena to be more cheerful, but she was being stubborn.
Well, patience was key—he’d just have to take it slow. With Yelena by his side, time seemed to pass by much faster.
The typically long road seemed short today, and before they knew it, they were near the company.
“Stop,” Yelena suddenly said.
Despite finding it strange, Cayson calmly instructed the driver to stop.
Cayson turned to Yelena and asked, “What’s up p>
Yelena quickly surveyed the area to make sure no one she knew was around. Then, she opened the car door and said, “I’m just an intern. I don’t want too many people knowing who I really am p>
Without needing any further explanation, Cayson understood what Yelena meant.
He nodded and replied, “Understood. I’ll drop you off here next time p>
Yelena’s mouth twitched slightly, her words failing her. There was actually going to be a “next time”? Although she didn’t mind going out with Cayson, his insistence on driving slowly for safety wasn’t her style.
Regardless of that, she decided to go along with it.
She didn’t want to disappoint him.
As soon as she got out of the car, she hurriedly walked off. They were close to the company, and the last thing she wanted was for someone to recognize Cayson’s car.
What Yelena didn’t realize was that the moment she stepped out of the car and said goodbye to Cayson had been captured by someone nearby.
Not long after she arrived at the company, she received a phone call. It was from Cayson.
