The accidental pull by Mishi brought their faces close. They both stared at each other for a while when Mishi's phone started ringing this, breaking their eyelock. Mishi immediately released her grip from the tie, took out her phone from her sling bag and found it was of Mark.
Mishi answered Mark's call. "Yeah, I'm in Maximus. I'm in Mr Xian's cabinet," replied Mishi, looking at Xian who was adjusting his tie. After talking for a few more minutes, she hung up the call.
Turning to Xian, Mishi said, "Sorry for that."
"It's fine. You don't need to apologize," said Xian when Mishi grabbed the other bag and told him to check that. Xian nodded and looked inside the bag. There was a mini cacti inside the bag. He took that out and looked at the cacti amusingly.
"It's cute," said Xian with a smile.
