Chapter 1081:

Her long eyelashes fluttered as her gaze swept over her features. She truly was beautiful. A fresh surge of optimism flowed through Docie. She was young, remarkable, and entirely certain that, someday, she’d cross paths with that special someone meant for her.

Once she finished her meal, Docie quickly grabbed her things and rushed off to the office. She caught the elevator just in the nick of time, hurrying to the bus stop outside her apartment complex. Fortunately, the bus arrived within a minute, and after an uneventful ride, she made it to the office just in time to clock in.
