“Alright, I think we’re all set here.” Izzy closed the research file her team had just handed her. The crisp sound of the folder snapping shut echoed in the boardroom. “I believe we’re ready for the presentation.”
Anna stepped forward swiftly, taking the folder from the table with her usual efficiency. She hovered behind Izzy.
“May I know what we’re going to do next?” Sherry asked, her curiosity evident. “I mean, the presentation’s on Friday, and it’s still Tuesday, so…”
Izzy gave her a reassuring smile. “Anna and I will handle the rest from here. Thank you for your hard work. As always, your research is impeccable.” She nodded toward the door. “You can head back now. I will ask Anna to call you once she needed something done.”
With that, Izzy rose, her heels clicking against the polished floor as she left the boardroom. Anna followed a step behind, her arms laden with files. They walked through the corridor, past–the quiet hum of office chatter, and back to Izzy’s office.

Asharp knock and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee interrupted her stupor.
“Thanks,” Izzy said, taking the cup.
“Uh… there’s also this,” Anna said hesitantly, placing a brightly decorated lunch box on the table. “The guard-”
“Yeah, I know,” Izzy interrupted, her eyes falling on the box. It was cute, excessively so, with little patterns on the lid that screamed Liam’s meddling. “Thanks, Anna. Just leave it here. Go have your lunch.”
Anna nodded and left, leaving Izzy to glance at the clock. It was already one in the afternoon. She let out a sigh, realizing how easy it was for her to lose track of time and, consequently, meals. Picking up her phone, she sent a quick text to Liam:

Cecil Weiss was a New York socialite turned San Francisco staple after marrying Calen’s father. She was nothing if not precise about her social calendar, which made this last–minute
