Ellison, seeing how long it took her to respond with just an emoji, couldn’t help but curl his lips into a deep, steady smile. He leaned back in his chair, his eyes half–closed as he stared at the phone screen in his hand.

William knocked and entered the office, only to see his usually composed, serious boss grinning indulgently.
