“Lucy, don’t deny yourself. You deserve the best,” Joycelyn said. Hopping her from downing her drink, her clear eyes full of sincerity.

Lucy’s hand paused, and she smiled gently, teasing. “You’re pretty, so I’ll listen to you this time.”

“Cheers, no matter what, as long as we love ourselves, we can overcome anything,” Joycelyn said, raising her glass to clink with hers.

Lucy’s smile froze for a moment, but then her expression softened even more. “If you think so, I’m not worried anymore.”

Joycelyn also smiled and took a sip of her juice.

“Let’s eat. How long are you staying in Virelia?” Joycelyn asked, picking up her fork and eating as she spoke.

Talking about work, Lucy’s expression briefly turned serious, but she quickly masked it, replying lightly, Tll return once the contract is finalized”

Lucy answered truthfully but didn’t ask about Joycelyn’s plans.

Sometimes, knowing too much wasn’t good.

She knew when to stop and not pry into private matters.

After dinner, they chatted for a long time.

They talked about their university days, work, and shared past experiences and gossip that they wouldn’t normally discuss with others.

Unknowingly, the flight attendant announced that the plane was about to land.

“Have you booked a hotel? Are any other colleagues with you?” Joycelyn asked, a bit worried about Lucy being alone in a foreign country,

“It’s fine. I’ve been traveling for years. Business trips are like second nature to me, Lucy said, packing her bag with a tone full

of ease and fearlessness.

“Alright, if anything happens, remember to call me. He’s a good person and can take care of things, Joycelyn said gently.

Being in a foreign country made her a bit worried.

They both knew without saying that “he” referred to Ellison.

When the plane landed, Joycelyn and Lucy got off the plane and waited by the side.
