First tears

Clarke Enterprises. 9.00 AM

Even though she only slept for two hours, Elena still decided to go to the office. It was Christian's words last night that made Elena determined to work even though at this moment she felt her head was so heavy. 

"Have you eaten, Elena?" Kainer asked quietly to Elena who had just come out of her room. 

Elena nodded. "Yes," she lied. 

"Are you sick?" 

"No Kainer, I'm fine," said Elena with a smile. "If I was sick I would have been at home resting and not going to work."

Kainer frowned. "But your face is pale."

"Is that true?" Elena immediately held her face. "Maybe it's because I'm wearing a nude lipstick, so my face looks pale."

"The color of lipstick really matters, doesn't it?" asked Kainer, confused.
