Alice added, “Besides, ever if she could manage it, we could still make a few subtle moves to ensure her falluce. Why are you getting so flustered?”
Faye paused for a moment to consider Alice’s worlds. After a moment, she realized Alice had a point.
Mariana and Henry treated Sampel as their most precious treasure. They would never allow any mistakes at the birthday party. Even the slightest error from Celeste would have severe consequences,
with this in mind, Faye’s gloomy mood lifted significantly. She smiled with malicious satisfaction and said, “You’re right. Toverreacted. I don’t need to do anything. I can just watch Celeste fall.”
The doo shared a knowing, sinister laugh while Celeste remained deeply engrossed in her work
Everyone else packed up and prepared to leave as evening approached, but Celeste showed no signs of leaving.
Lynn walked over and asked, “Celeste, do you want to join us for a movie later?”
Without looking up, Celeste smiled and replied, “Maybe next time, I still have some documents to complete.”
Lynn patted her on the back and said, “I didn’t realize you were such a workaholic. It’s only your first day
Celeste smiled and explained, “It’s not that I just want to finish sorting these documents. Only a few pages are lett, and it won’t take long.“!
“Alright then You’d better head home soon. We’re leaving. See you tomorrow, “Lynn said.
See you tomorrow,” Celeste replied.
After waving goodbye to Lynn, Celeste continued wording. Before she law it, the office was empty, and it was growing dark outside.

Samuel’s soft, cute voice came through when she answered. “Ms. Hart, why aren’t you home yet? ‘
Only then did she remember she had agreed to meet Samuel in the evening. However, she had lost track of time while working.
Feeling guilty, she quickly apologized, “Sorry, sweetie. I got caught up in work and lost track of the time. You’re at the door, right? Walt for me for a while. I’ll be night there.”

She stood up, intending to gather her things and head back. However, Julian answered the phone on Samuel’s end
“Where are you?
Although his voice was deep, it had a noble quality that wasn’t cold. Celeste found it almost alluring
She instinctively replied, “I’m still at the office,”
Julian responded, “Alright. Wait there.
Without giving Celeste a chance to reply, he ended the call. Celeste was puzzled by Julian’s instructions. She wondered if he planned to pick her up.
