章 125: Unbecoming

[Johan's POV]

The repeated tapping of his fingers on the computer keyboard came to a halt, and his surprise eyes blinked at the lush red petals of the expensive-looking bouquet shoved in his face. Johan looked up to a flustered Diego and channeled his thoughts to explain what's going on.

"T-That's not from me, okay?" Diego said, dropping the bouquet to his lap. "I was only asked to give it to you. It's not like I'm into you or anything."

"Okay? Uh... Thanks?" Johan pulled back a little, following their Department Head with his eyes as Diego scrambled to his office, muttering to himself.

Was money all he could think of?
