Once they reached the airport parking lot, Lenora waved at Jonas who was standing nearby. "Goodbye, s you in Archulea."

Jonas paused for a moment before stepping out of the car. "Nora, would you mind seeing me off?"

Lenora paused for a moment and did not think too much about it. She alighted from the other side and was about to call Fiona to join them, but Jonas said, "Fiona, you wait in the car."

"Okay!" Fiona quickly agreed, flashing a cheerful grin at Lenora. "It's chilly outside, so I'll stay put. Nora. could yo

please see Jonas off for me?"

Feeling helpless, Lenora said to Jonas, "How about I walk you to the terminal entrance?"

"Sure," Jonas replied with a subtle smile.

Inside the car, Fiona and Sophia exchanged a meaningful glance.

Lenora and Jonas walked side by side to the terminal entrance.

Throughout the journey, Lenora kept bringing up different topics. "Is this project in Friyx your last one before New Year's Day?"

Jonas shook his head "No, I've moved up the remaining few projects. I'm trying to clear the latter half of the month so Lean travel with you all. Consider it a way to unwind."

"Why the rush? You wouldn't want to end up in the hospital because your body couldn't keep up. It's always better to balance work and rest. Given the flexibility of your vacation time, there's no need to insist on taking a break before New Year's Day." "Well, traveling alone can be quite dull. I'd like to go with you," Jonas said, gazing deeply at Lenora.

Lenora's face stiffened for a moment. She ignored Jonas' insinuation and said, "You're right. Having a friend along does lighten the mood. All right, we've arrived at the terminal. You should hurry inside. I should get back to the car soon. It's too cold outside." "Nora, wait up," Jonas said, pulling out a small box about the size of a palm from the pocket of his down jacket.

The box bore the imprint of a few letters. It was the logo of a high-end luxury brand.

He carefully opened it to reveal a delicate necklace inside. "I bought it at a duty-free shop in Friyx. I'm not sure if you'll like it."

Upon glancing at it, Lenora quickly refused, "This is far too valuable. I can't accept it."

"Nah, this price means nothing to us. If you feel bad, you can just pay me back in kind Enter."
