As Triston drove away, Audrey felt relieved. She didn't know what she would have done if he had continued to pester her.
Exhausted, she lay on the sofa in her apartment. Before she could rest, her phone rang insistently. It was Kim's special ringtone, designed to ensure she never missed his calls, even if her phone was on silent mode.
Sighing in resignation, she answered the call.
"Why did it take you so long? Dating a man in secret, perhaps?" Kim teased.
Rolling her eyes, Audrey retorted, "You can ask the assistant. How would you not know if I had a date? Spit it out, or I'll hang up." She had barely arrived hwhen Kim called, which meant her assistant had informed him. Otherwise, Kim couldn't have known this.

The next evening, precisely at 8 o'clock, Kim arrived at Audrey's apartment building in his car. Tem minutes later, Audrey emerged in a light green dress.
