Audrey's POV I shut my eyes, sensing the stress of the day enveloping me. I was shocked by what was occurring. Allegations of misappropriation, gossip circulating rapidly throughout the workplace...it was overwhelming. I quickly gathered my belongings and made my way home.

"I do not know what is happening," I stated, my voice trembling. "These accusations... I'm unsure who's behind them, but it's devastating me." Clara embraced me tightly, keeping me near. "You will be fine Audrey, I promise you that," she said. "We will look for a way to solve this together." I withdrew, gazing at her. "I sense that everyone is against me," I stated. "Even Lucas...I'm

Lucas positioned himself at the front of the table, his gaze sweeping across the room as he started to speak. "Good morning to all," he stated, his tone strong and authoritative. "I would like to discuss several matters that have come to my notice." While he talked, our eyes locked, and I sensed a flutter in my heart.

I was still in shock by what the doctor said. Aiden's health has worsen and they they don't even know what to do. Just when I began to sense I might crumble under the burden of my feelings, my phone vibrated. It was Claire. "Hey, bestie, how are you?" she asked with her tone upbeat.
