Flustered by what | saw when the doors opened, my face turned red. | felt embarrassed and didn’t know where to look.
Perhaps sensing something, the two people inside the elevator quickly separated and turned to face me.
| hastily waved and said, “I didn’t see anything! You can continue!” The two individuals in the elevator were Ivanna and another man. The man was tall and well-built, and | didn’t dare to look too closely.

“I-1 haven't seen you for a while, and | just returned from Solaris,” | stammered.
When | noticed the man exiting the elevator, | hurriedly fled inside. “I'll talk to you tomorrow!” “Chlo!” Ivanna’s face was still red. “Are you sure you're okay?” “Yeah, let's talk on the phone tomorrow.” The elevator doors closed just in time, and | sighed in relief. It seemed like she was too busy with her love life.

However, | was thrilled for her. It seemed like Ivanna had found herself a boyfriend. | regretted not getting a good look at the man earlier.

It was my first good night's sleep since Atlas’s accident.
Carol calledbefore my alarm clock the next day. She said, “Ms. Chloe, you need to check today’s headlines.

Social media posts were full of discussions, and a detailed analysis article provided a complete picture. of ATL Empire. It was a thorough analysis that didn’t favor Atlas or Celine.
Instead of aligning with their interests, the analysis was thorough and insightful.

Shortly after, Carol arrived at the office with breakfast. She looked atand asked, “Did you eat yet?” “None of us ate!” Grayson replied. He asked Carol if she had bought enough breakfast for everyone, and she blushed and left, promising to return with more.
