Chapter 74. Joy and Steve

"Enough, focus on work..!!!" Bella teased.

"Hmm, bye love..!!" Austin said.

"Love..?" Bella asked.

"Yes, I made a new nickname for both of us!!" Austin explained.

Bella was taken aback, "Hehehehe... okay my love.. bye..!!"

"Bye love..!" Austin replied and ended the call.

Bella shook her head slightly.

"Usually, it's women who think and fuss about their partner's nicknames, you're indeed different, Austin," Bella mused, then resumed her household chores.

Steve got out of the car and saw his new secretary also arriving.

"Joy..?" Steve called out.

"Oh, good morning, Mr. Steve," Joy replied warmly with a sweet smile.

"Why do you look a bit down..?" Steve asked casually.

"Ohh.. It's nothing, sir... Just some personal issues," Joy replied.

"Boyfriend..?" Steve guessed.

"N-no sir, I don't have a boyfriend," Joy honestly admitted with a blush.

"Ohh..." Steve nodded.
