When Anathea wodor tap, it was alreach the morning of the next day
Last night’s heavy rainfall had finally stopped, leaving only glistening drops of rainwater on the leaves to slowly drip down.
The morning sm titered through the thin contains, illuminating the room in a soft, warm glow
As her fever had completely subsided, Anathea no longer felt so uncomfortable.
Jenny, who had come in to check on Anathea, studied when she say that the latter was awake. She greeted cheerfully, “Good morning, Mrs. Sinclair!”
“Morning”
Anathea slowly propped herself up into a sitting position. As she wrinkle marred the spot next to her on the bed.
Gregory hadn’t staved the night.

“Mr. Sinclair left last night. There must have been an emergency at the company,” Jenny explained.
An emergency at the company?
Anthea thought it more likely that he had gone off to see Natalie,
Not a hint of emotion stirred the calmness in her eyes. Filpping aside the blanket, she climbed out of bed to freshen up
Her breakfast was oatmeal, something Anathea didn’t mind as she indeed wanted something easier to digest.
However, the moment she ate a spoonful, she realized the taste had changed. “Tom didn’t cook this oatmeal, did he?”
“It was cooked by the new chef,” Jenny replied. “I think Tom resigned, so Mr. Sinclair hired a female chel.”
I see Anathea nodded and continued eating, not probing into the matter further.
Well aware of Gregory’s character, she had known long ago that he wouldn’t tolerate having Thomas around.
She had never seen the new female chef, but she didn’t care much ter finishing her breakfast, she lett for the studio.
Her colleagues greeted her with wide smiles. “Morning, Nat!”
“Morning!” Anathea responded in kind with a smile.
Upon reaching her workstation, she noticed a cup of freshly brewed coffee sitting on her desk, the beverage releasing a tantalizing aroma of roasted coffee beans.
Anathea looked up, just in time to catch Lena peeking in from the coorway. As they locked gazes, Lena said softly, “Nat, you so much for last time…”

If it weren’t for Anathea back then, she likely wouldn’t have escaped from the private room at Aetherbrook Hotel unscathed.
However, she had been utterly dumbfounded when Gregory had taken Anathea away. She got the feeling that those two had some sort of relationship going on.
After all, Gregory was well known for his cold and aloot demeanor Why would he carry away a woman he had only just met without a second thought?
Seeing the curiosity in Lena’s eyes, Anathea simply smiled and pressed her finger against her lips in a hushed gesture. She hoped Lena wouldn’t ask any further questions.
Though still confused, Lena immediately nodded. Since Anathea didn’t want to speak of the matter, she wouldn’t probe further.

“Not is just too amazing!”
“I know, right? She alone boosted our perfonuance for the last quarter. That’s just Incredible!”
Anthea ducked her head slightly at the waves of applause and praise raining down on her. Smiling, she said humbly, “That was the result of everyone’s hard work. I was simply along for the tide
“Oh, don’t be so humble.” Evangeline patted Anathea on the shoulder. “Besides this, I have another piece of good news to share. We’ve recently partnered with the Castenca International Convention and Exhibition Center for an upcoming exhibition, the theme of which is ‘Modern Tranquility.
