Chapter 505: Chapter 505: Improper Thoughts

Grace Ziegler, adorned in a beautiful dress that accentuated her slender waist, entered the Plum Blossom private room at CozyCove Dining with the grace of a lady of distinction.

The sight of colleagues from the CEO's secretariat office filled the room she had entered. The absence of Chief Daniel Marshall, who occupied her every thought, abruptly left her speechless in embarrassment and clutching onto a stiff smile.

Standing perplexedly at the entrance, she was surprised by the sudden appearance of Adam Howard. His piercing gaze was fixed upon her, "Grace, are you surprised? Shocked even? You didn't expect such a lively scene, did you?"

In an instant, Grace turned to look at Adam Howard.

Masking her embarrassment and sadness, Grace nodded in feigned awareness. On the surface, she still appeared to be the naive girl ignorant of the world's ways.

"I genuinely didn't expect everyone to be here. Thank you, Assistant Howard."
