Eric arrived at work earlier than anyone else. His punctual habits, honed during his time under Sir Ramprandt's strict business regime, had followed him here despite the fact that this new job operated under a far less structured and unpredictable organisation. Unlike the orderly schedules and rigid expectations of his previous post, this place didn't exactly reward showing up ahead of time.
Now, seated alone in the vacant room, he wasn't quite sure what to do with himself.
His stomach soon reminded him of what he had neglected, breakfast. A low rumble echoed from his belly, and just then, a thought struck him. Didn't Marvelous pack something for me?
Fortunately, she had. Before leaving his place the previous night, Marvelous Kennedy had gone out of her way to prepare a meal and store it neatly in a thermal flask. A quiet smile touched his lips as he retrieved it.
