He was standing not far away, looking at m e with a face filled with helplessness.

anymore. He had already seen how wretched | looked.
Therefore, | said without a single care, "It's none of your business."
Theo walked over and stood beside me, saying faintly, "I'm not trying to interfere with your business, but are you
planning to treat these fruits that we've painstakingly picked with such disrespect?”
| pursed my lips and picked up the fruits that had scattered across the ground. | put them in the bags and looked
up at him, asking, "Are you happy now?”

Krayden held back the urge to laugh and took the bags from my hands. "I'll wash the fruits for you. There's a
bathroom in the office. You should go and take a shower. You probably don't have a change of clothes, right? If
you don't mind, you can make do with mine. Just let Chester know and he'll get them for you.”

Keith nodded and said while stifling his laughter, "I'll pass on your message to Mr. Grant. Please go in to take a
