I Don't Mind You Cutting In

The noise she made lifted Mike's head up from the computer.

"Sorry. I met a strange guy when I was browsing the forum. Go ahead. Don't worry about me!"

Scarlett explained awkwardly and unsurely found that he seemed angry.

"A strange guy?" His voice was a bit colder.

"Yeah, his comment made me feel like I saw a group of mammoths from the Ice Age come back to life, dancing in a grass skirt! Funny, right?"

Scarlett felt that her joke was funny, but cold at the same time.

It seemed that the coldness in the room had nothing to do with the temperature, since Mike's office was seasonal heated. Scarlett gazed around and then she eyed him.

"Is your work not going well?"

He made it cold, right?

Mike snorted, showing that he didn't want to talk to her.

Scarlett read some information from his expression.

He was extremely unhappy right now.

She was sure that she had not offended him. He was making trouble out of nothing.
