Chapter 208: Chapter 206: You Don’t Have to Come Anymore

"Ms. Sterling, please, have a seat."

Randall Jennings spoke warmly, taking the opportunity to introduce Jasmine Sterling to Lillian Hughes.

Before Lillian Hughes could even process what was happening, her hand had already extended as if on its own. "H-Hello..."

’So *she’s* Ms. Sterling...’

Remembering what she had said to her downstairs, Lillian Hughes felt a pang of guilt, and her cheeks burned.

But with Randall Jennings present, she could only pretend that nothing had happened.

Fortunately, Jasmine Sterling didn’t make things awkward for her, greeting her politely as if they were meeting for the first time.

Lillian Hughes, however, couldn’t figure it out. What exactly was the relationship between Randall Jennings and this Ms. Sterling? She grew even more confused when she saw the lunch container sitting on the desk.

The woman had clearly come to bring Randall food.

’Who brings food to a single member of the opposite sex for no reason?’

’But why was Randall being so courteous to her?’

In all her time here, she had never seen Randall Jennings be so pleasant and genuinely warm to anyone.

He even personally poured a cup of the tea that Secretary Lawson brought in for Ms. Sterling.

Jasmine Sterling also noticed the open lunch container on the desk. It was the lunch Lillian Hughes had prepared for Randall Jennings—a beef and vegetable salad.

It contained protein, vitamins, and a small amount of carbs. With its exquisite presentation and balanced nutrition, it was clearly prepared with great care.

But the black Chia Seeds sprinkled densely over the top immediately caught Jasmine Sterling’s eye.

Her brow furrowed instinctively, and she blurted out, "Mr. Jennings, you can’t eat this, can you?"

She remembered: Randall Jennings was allergic to Chia Seeds.

Hearing this, Randall Jennings looked properly at the lunch Lillian Hughes had brought him for the first time. But before he could speak, Lillian cut in, "What’s that supposed to mean? I made this lunch myself. Why can’t Randall eat it?"

Subconsciously, Lillian Hughes took Jasmine Sterling’s words as a personal attack.

Sensing the displeasure in her tone, Jasmine Sterling quickly clarified in a gentle voice, "Young lady, you’ve misunderstood. I wasn’t criticizing you. It’s just that Mr. Jennings is allergic to Chia Seeds. Didn’t you know?"

Lillian Hughes was speechless.

’How was I supposed to know?’

’An allergy to Chia Seeds?’

’That’s such a rare allergen.’

She instinctively looked at Randall Jennings, still a little disbelieving as she asked softly, "Randall, you’re allergic to Chia Seeds?"

Randall Jennings nodded slightly, then turned to Jasmine Sterling with a smile. "It’s impressive that you still remember, Ms. Sterling."

"With consequences that severe, it would be hard to forget," Jasmine Sterling replied with a helpless smile.

Randall Jennings laughed as well. Lillian Hughes couldn’t understand what they were talking about, but she could sense from their natural interaction that the two of them shared a past that others didn’t know about.
