Sarah chuckled, tapping out a reply. “I didn’t do anything that impressive. But sure, I could use some food.”

When she came downstairs, she saw Leo leaning against his limo, greeting her with a big smile.

“You convinced everyone here today,” he said, his tone sincere. “You’ve earned their respect. I didn’t expect it so quickly.”

Sarah took a seat in the car, feeling a mix of pride and humility.

“It wasn’t just me. Everyone here made me feel welcome. I just did my job.”

Leo shook his head, amused. “It’s more than that. You’ve shown them what you’re capable of, and that’s something that’ll take you far here.”

Sarah appreciated Leo’s words but still had reservations about being singled out.

“I don’t want anyone to think I’m trying to climb the ladder too quickly. I’d rather start from the ground up, gain everyone’s trust.”

Leo nodded thoughtfully. “That’s a smart approach. You’ve got a good head on your shoulders. You’ll go far.”

Sarah smiled modestly and didn’t say anything. They soon arrived at the restaurant where they had made reservations.

Sarah stepped out of the limo, the cool evening air greeting her as she straightened her dress.

Leo, ever the gentleman, was quick to open the door for her.

He flashed her a playful grin as he extended a hand to help her out.

“After you, madam,” he said with exaggerated politeness, his tone light and teasing.

Sarah laughed, shaking her head at his antics.

“You’re really getting into this gentleman thing, aren’t you?” she teased, her voice filled with amusement.

smiled warmly at him, appreciating his charm and his company.
