After dinner, the group headed over to the karaoke bar The employees had all left, but Zachary still sat in his seat, unmoving.

Lola laughed lightly. "Why aren't you leaving. Mr. Fuller? You've come this far, you can't back out now. Everyone was really happy you could join us today." Zachary stayed quiet, so Lola added, "The cake I ordered is at the karaoke bar. You should at least stay for the birthday cake, Mr. Fuller."

The deputy director chimed in as well, "Mr. Fuller, it's just next door. A short stop won't take too much time."

Zachary stood up, grabbed his coat off the chair, and said, "Let's go."

The deputy director hurriedly took the coat from Zachary, following him out. When they arrived at the karaoke bar, someone was already choosing songs.

Zachary found a seat in a corner and settled in, casually loosening his collar with one hand. He rested his left arm on the couch's armrest, gently massaging his temples. For reasons he couldn't quite pinpoint, a headache and dizziness were starting to creep in. "Mr. Fuller, are you feeling all right? Here, have some water," Lola said, noticing his discomfort. She poured some water into a disposable cup and set it in front of him.

"Thanks," Zachary said, lifting his glasses and giving her a brief glance. He took a small sip of water while Lola smiled warmly at him.

Does Lola like me? I can't tell. She's being incredibly considerate tonight, but she hasn't crossed any lines.

Someone in the room began singing, and after a few songs, the deputy director approached Zachary,

"Mr. Fuller, won't you sing one?" he asked.

Zachary waved him off. "You guys go ahead," he said, uninterested.

The deputy director didn't press further. It was already a big deal that Zachary had even shown up. Zachary casually loosened his collar further, exposing a bit of his collarbone. He stood up and headed out.

"Mr. Fuller!" Lola called after him, thinking he was leaving.

Zachary turned, studying her expression. "I just need some fresh air; it's a little stuffy in here."

Lola looked a bit awkward but didn't push the matter.

Just then, a waiter wheeled in the cake. Lola busied herself with cutting it, while Zachary walked down the
