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.

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

Her heart started to race.

“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
