Third person's POV

"Ms. Wyatt, did you know? I'm engaged. I'm getting married at the end of the month!" Roxanne's voice turned sad.

Catherine was dumbfounded. For a moment, she did not know how to comfort Roxanne.

"You must find it very funny, right? The marriage is between two families, and he is my childhood sweetheart. I do not hate him, but I have no affection for him. He has always been kind to me. I agreed to marry him for my folks' sake. I've always loved Leo, so I wanted to meet him. I tried many ways, and in the end, you made my dream come true. Although I said many things I should not have said, I felt much better. I hope you'll come to my wedding!" Roxanne tried to pull herself together and look less sad.

It suddenly seemed to Catherine that Roxanne, though she seemed a spoiled girl, was a good daughter. She acted out of place with Leo, but she had her reasons.

"Sure. I will be there with my best wishes to you," Catherine said.

"Really? Will you bring me a signed photo of Leo as well?" Roxanne was delighted and made another request.

"OK, I'll ask him for it and send it to you," Catherine promised.

"Thank you so much, Ms. Wyatt... Hey, we should be friends. Can I call you Cathy?" Roxanne was thrilled, and for an instant, it seemed to her that Catherine was a very nice person.

"Sure!"

"OK then. I'll hang up now. Thank you for not leaving me in the restaurant!" Roxanne said gratefully.

"You are my client. Clients are my priority," Catherine said with a smile.

"I appreciate it. OK then. I need to go home now! See you!" Roxanne hung up the phone.

Catherine looked at her phone and smiled. As it turned out, she made Roxanne's dream come true. No wonder Roxanne was so eager to see Leo.

"Catherine, who were you talking to?" asked Patricia, turning to look at Catherine.

"A client of mine!" Catherine replied in a low voice.

"Come sit over there with me for a while!" Patricia took Catherine away.

Catherine was wearing a formal dress. As a result, she had to sit properly all the time, which made her feel more tired than at work.
