In the office, Emma’s phone suddenly lit up.

Seeing Eason’s name on the screen made her heart skip a beat.

She swiftly unlocked her phone and opened the message.

Then, she saw the message Eason had sent.

Emma stared at the message, reading it over and over. Once she was certain she wasn’t mistaken, a look” of bewilderment washed over her face.

Eason… had feelings for her?

While thinking this, Emma couldn’t resist rereading the message.

Her heart started to race.

Eason confessed his liking for her.

And he had even invited her to meet that very evening.

A myriad of emotions intertwined in her mind, trapping her in its midst.

It was time to get off work.

Emma, blending in with the flow of people leaving the office, had her head down, ready to leave.

Emma, surprised by the attention, shook her head. “No… no, I’m planning to go home.”

“So early? You’ve never joined our department’s gatherings before. Give us the honor today?” another colleague said enthusiastically.

“Yeah, come on, just this once,” others chimed in.

Emma, a bit flustered, mumbled a few responses before making a quick escape.

Her cab was already waiting downstairs.

She quickly got into the cab.

Once the car door closed, her anxious feelings began to settle.

Although Emma was initially frightened by this unexpected warmth, a subtle hope started to bubble up
