Joey was in a good mood today, with a subtle smile gracing her face. As we were about to exit the elevator, she turned to me and said, "Ms. Middleton, if you're free at lunch, let's grab a coffee together.""My schedule is quite packed today. I'm not sure if I'll have time at lunch," I replied, growing increasingly suspicious of Joey's unexpected invitation."Well, I'll wait for your call then," she said."Certainly, Ms. Parker," I responded politely."You know, we've come to know each other through our conflicts. We might as well be friends. You can call me Joey," she suggested."How is Jon doing?" I asked, changing the subject. Joey's sudden change in attitude towards me was too drastic for me to let my guard down. Rather than forcing a friendship, I preferred to maintain some distance for now."I was too emotional last night," Joey admitted. "I've thought about it seriously. Despite my brother's disabilities, he deserves basic respect from me. I was wrong before, and I'll do b

Jon exceeded my expectations with his abilities. He managed to revise the design in just one day.His new version included several practical auxiliary features, making it extremely user-friendly for beginners. Additionally, he made modifications to the car's design, giving it smoother and more elegant lines than before.When Luke saw the design, his eyes were filled with approval and praise. "I'm tempted to fire all of those so-called high-tech talents we hired at high salaries at Hanque," he remarked."If we were to fire them all, there would be no one left to do the work," I pointed out, knowing that Luke was simply expressing his frustration."Their contributions pale in comparison to Jon's. It's time to trim down the team a bit," Luke pondered.When Neil was developing new car models, he would hire top industry talent at high salaries. These individuals were all proud of their abilities and hesitant to work under others. As a team, they were like scattered sand if they didn't

I had forgotten that we were still stuck in traffic when I looked at Luke in shock.Luke, drunk and drowsy, hadn't heard me. I held onto his arm, staring at him intently, and urgently said, "Luke, wake up. What did you just call me?""What happened?" Luke opened his eyes, pinching the bridge of his nose to clear his head."You just called me 'Jen Jen'," I said.That night, I wasn't fully conscious. I didn't know if those intimate, affectionate calls of "Jen Jen" were my imagination or real. Luke's recent "Jen Jen" had brought me back to that night."Jen Jen?" Luke didn't remember what he had just said. "If you like, I can call you that from now on."I opened my mouth, wanting to ask Luke if he had ever been to the Waldorf Hotel, but then realized how absurd the question was. Luke traveled often, with his days filled with work. How could he possibly remember when he might have visited the Waldorf?Earlier, I had desperately wanted to confirm if Luke was the man from that night. B

Mandy looked furious, as if Ms. Lawson had committed some unforgivable sin.I strongly agreed with her words!I wanted to say, "Mandy, well said! Please, say more!""He may have done many wrong things in the past, but that's all in the past. The law has already punished him appropriately. We shouldn't dwell on past grudges; we should look forward!" Ms. Lawson argued."You're a lawyer, not a pastor! Pastors are the ones who like to tell people to let go!" Mandy retorted, clutching her tray as she stood by the table. "Ms. Big Shot Lawyer, if someone hurt your parents, could you calmly tell them you forgive them?""Excuse me, who are you? We're having a private conversation. Please don't interrupt us!""You think I'm making sense and you can't refute it, so you're trying to get rid of me?"Mandy looked at her with disdain. "Lawyers like you are the biggest hypocrites. If someone hurt your family, you'd use all your knowledge to get them the harshest sentence possible! It's easy to

"I... I'm having my period," I admitted, feeling embarrassed as I covered my face.The pain was normal, so there was no need to go to the hospital.Seeing Luke's insistence, I decided to be honest with him.Luke stood there, holding me. I could see his brows furrowing as he processed my words through my fingers.Surely he understood what I meant by "period"?"It's my menstrual cycle," I clarified, explaining that women go through this every month.Blushing, I spoke softly, afraid he might not hear. "I... I don't have any sanitary pads. If you're willing to help, please put me down and buy some for me."What was I thinking, asking Luke to buy sanitary pads? I immediately regretted it. "Never mind, I'll get the pads myself."I could call the receptionist for assistance.Luke studied my face. "Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?""No, it's okay! Period pain is normal. Some hot water will help a lot."Some painkillers and a hot pad would be even better.I squirme
