She had planned to take the ttoday to think carefully about their relationship, even considering whether they should break up to give each other sspace. But when she saw that he hadn't slept at all and sent her such a message, her heart softened. Perhaps this relationship could last a little longer. Maybe he would change in the future.

When she arrived at her desk and got the documents related to the Yule family collaboration, she was about to leave. But when she looked up, she saw Jodie standing in front of Ethan, talking to him.
Jodie's eyes were sparkling, bouncing around like a little bunny. She had a cute appearance, but if it weren't for her ruthless methods, she'd probably be very popular with men.
