021 The Engagement contract

"Engagement Agreement?" Emily couldn't believe her eyes. She looked up, her gaze filled with disbelief and confusion. Her heartbeat seemed to skip a beat, and her fingers trembled slightly as they held onto the document. "I only wanted to borrow your personal information. Why is this an engagement agreement?"She had expected a simple agreement, something to temporarily deal with her new job requirements. An engagement? This was far beyond anything she could have imagined. She stared at Alex, trying to discern some explanation from his otherwise composed expression.Alex, however, remained as unperturbed as ever, as if he had anticipated her reaction all along. The corners of his lips lifted slightly, a faint smile playing on them, his eyes calm and unwavering, exuding an air of complete control, as if everything had unfolded just as he planned."Personal information," he said, his voice steady, confident, almost detached, "is not something to be shared casually. It's only shared amon

As noon approached, the office atmosphere began to relax. Many colleagues were preparing for lunch, chatting about their plans or casually wrapping up their morning tasks. Emily was organizing the documents she had received earlier when her phone vibrated softly on her desk. She glanced at the screen, noticing a message from Alex.Alex: Let me take you out for lunch today to celebrate your new job.Emily frowned slightly, a smile tugging at her lips, one mixed with exasperation.

We're heading to a Thai restaurant near the company.The message was sent, and a strange silence settled in. Alex didn't reply, leaving her alone with her thoughts.

024 The Apartment Hunt

On a Friday afternoon, the golden rays of the sun streamed gently through the office windows, casting a soft glow across the workspace. Emily had just completed an important report and, seizing the brief respite that lunch offered, she lowered her head and dialed her real estate agent's number. The company she had just joined, WhaleTech, was located in the bustling center of the city’s CBD, surrounded by an array of towering skyscrapers. Her current commute was lengthy—taking nearly an hour and a half each way—and she had decided that moving closer to work would make her life significantly easier. The convenience of a shorter commute and the promise of a new beginning compelled her to seek a new apartment.The phone only rang a few times before a warm, enthusiastic voice answered, “Hello, this is Horizon Estates. You’re speaking with Liam. How can I assist you today?”Emily took a moment to collect her thoughts before speaking clearly and concisely. “Hi, I’m looking to rent a one-bedr

025 The Disturbing Stalker

With her apartment viewing plans unexpectedly canceled by the real estate agent that afternoon, Emily decided to make the best use of her weekend by beginning to pack her belongings, preparing for her eventual move.She was currently residing in a small, modest apartment within an old refurbished building, where the walls were so thin that they might as well have been made of paper. The voices of her neighbors conversing loudly or tapping away at their keyboards perpetually echoed through the hallways, each sound an incessant reminder of her lack of solitude. This place had never been more than a temporary refuge—a hasty solution following her breakup with Ethan—something she had settled for without much thought simply because she needed a roof over her head.After organizing her things for a while, she gathered some old items and trash that she no longer needed and made her way downstairs to discard them. As Emily reached the dim corridor with the garbage bags in her hand, she felt a

026 Moving into a New Apartment

"I've already informed the building's front desk about the voyeur next door," Alex said as the car smoothly glided along the wide avenue. His voice was calm but resonated with a firm conviction. "They're going to keep an eye on the surveillance footage, and they'll notify the authorities once there's enough evidence."Emily sat in the passenger seat, her gaze drifting towards the window as her thoughts ran wild. Outside, the view gradually shifted from the chaos of crowded streets to the serene tranquility of upscale neighborhoods. The neatly kept streets were lined with towering trees, providing shade and giving the area an air of peace and security. She took a deep breath, feeling a little of her earlier tension ease as visions of her new life began to take shape.After about thirty minutes of driving, they entered a high-end residential area. The gates of the neighborhood were both elegant and sophisticated, crafted from heavy wrought iron that featured delicate scrollwork. Securit

027 Work for Rent

Emily moved gracefully through the kitchen, the aromatic scent of fresh herbs and sizzling oil filling the open space, as she prepared dinner with care. She didn't know much about Alex's preferences, but she had decided on steamed fish, coconut chicken soup, and a simple yet perfectly executed stir-fried shredded potato. Judging by his tall and brooding demeanor, she imagined he would have an appreciation for the warmth of home-cooked dishes, something comforting yet rich in flavor. She added a delicate sprinkle of green onions, hoping to enhance the essence of each dish, silently praying it would suit his taste.The crackling of hot oil, the rhythmic sound of her chopping, and the soft sizzle of the vegetables gradually mingled into a melody of home, a symphony that brought life to the otherwise serene evening. Emily moved with deft precision, her hands familiar with the tools of the kitchen as she worked on bringing out the best in each ingredi

This is Daisy from Crescent Heights.”“Hi, Daisy,” Emily greeted, injecting a smile into her tone, attempting to sound as professional and confident as she could. “I've put together the initial proposal for the Black Friday campaign.

When Emily received Jay's company message, her heart skipped a beat, and a swirl of questions instantly flooded her mind. Why was Jay calling for her so suddenly? They barely had any one-on-one interactions before. Was there something wrong with the design submission, or was it that the campaign plan needed some last-minute adjustments? She took a deep breath, straightened the paperwork on her desk, and walked towards the tech department.Jay's desk was at the corner of the tech department, positioned near the window. A few desk lamps bathed his workspace in a soft glow, highlighting his calm and composed silhouette. When he saw Emily approach, he gestured towards the empty chair beside him, indicating that she should sit. Emily felt her nerves tighten, and she took the seat obediently, doing her best to appear composed."I can't seem to find the final version of the Black Friday designs in the system," Jay said in a measured, polite tone. "I need to put together a presentation. Could
