Elianna had just settled back onto the couch when another knock sounded at the door.
"Asher, Jefferson, are you busy? May I come in?"
Hearing the sweet voice from outside, Asher's expression turned a bit awkward.
"It sounds like Kenley."
Jefferson was wiping his hands with a wet wipe. He glanced at Elianna on the couch with a subtle smile on his face when he heard that.
"It's quite busy today."
Asher chuckled softly. "Haha, she mentioned she was nearby and wanted to drop off some food. I told her it wasn't necessary. I'll ask her to leave."
Outside the door, Kenley was holding several thermal meal boxes, her dress clinging wet to her body, with a few wet strands of hair clinging to her cheeks.
"Asher."
Seeing Kenley in such a bedraggled state, Asher immediately forgot his initial intention of asking her to leave and looked at her in surprise.
"What's going on? How did you get all wet like this?"
Kenley raised the thermal meal boxes in her hands and shook them. "You just mentioned that neither you nor Jefferson had dinner, so I made some small dishes myself. But I rushed out and forgot my umbrella."
"Look at you. You always forget something."
Although it was a reprimand, Asher's tone was full of concern.
Asher was reluctant to let Kenley leave in her wet clothes, but he also dared not to make the decision on his own.
He turned to Jefferson. "Jeff, you see, Kenley's clothes are all soaked. She might catch a cold if she leaves like this. How about letting her stay for a while until her clothes dry?"
Kenley gripped the thermal meal boxes tighter, fearing that Jefferson might not agree.
Jefferson was unexpectedly kind. "Yes, indeed, it's raining heavily outside, and catching a cold wouldn't be good. Come on in."
As he spoke, his eyes glanced over at Elianna casually.
Elianna knew he was doing it on purpose and chose not to react, simply turning her face away.
Kenley couldn't see what was happening inside and believed that her plan had succeeded.
She felt delighted and thanked Jefferson in a sweet voice, "Thank you, Jefferson. I hope I'm not bothering you."
Only when she followed Asher inside did she realize that Elianna was also here.
"Oh, Anna is here too," she said with a forced smile.
Elianna smiled back, "Yes, I brought some food over. We've already eaten."
Kenley looked at the meal boxes on the desk and was annoyed that Elianna had beaten her to it.
She bit her lip and said, "Anna must have bought food from outside. How clever she is! I was silly enough to make it myself. It took too long, and you've all already eaten."
Asher never really liked the dishes Elianna bought, and to make matters worse, he got choked by the chili. He couldn't help but belittle Elianna, "She's not clever at all. She's just lazy. The cleanliness and hygiene of restaurant food can't compare to that of homemade dishes." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"I haven't finished eating yet. Let me see what you've made."
With that, Asher placed the thermal meal boxes that Kenley was carrying onto the table.
"I'll help you."
Kenley took the opportunity to sway in front of Jefferson, and as she leaned over to open the boxes, her neckline slid down slightly.
Today, she was wearing a white lace dress, which clung to her body after being drenched in the rain, revealing every curve.
From Elianna's perspective, even the shape of her bra was clearly visible.
With a knowing smile, Elianna said, "The rain seems to favor Kenley. Her clothes and hair are wet, but her makeup is still perfect."
Kenley's little trick was exposed, and she looked somewhat embarrassed. However, she quickly found an excuse.
"Well, my makeup did smudge, but I felt it would be impolite to meet Asher and Jefferson like that, so I touched it up a bit."
Kenley put on an innocent expression. "Anna, you wouldn't think I deliberately got wet, would you?"
"Why would I think that?"
Elianna replied with a smile. "It's just a bit odd to see an unmarried young lady swaying around all wet in front of two men."
