A gleam appeared in Eileen’s eyes. “May I know what the surprise is?” she asked.

Aisha responded, “Ms. Eileen, you’ll find out when the time comes. Also, with the extra tickets, you can invite your friends to come along.”

Eileen held two tickets in her hand, along with a valuable catalog that even bore Edward’s personal signature.

With no friends around and uncertain about whom to give the extra ticket to, she suddenly thought of someone.

I wonder if he would be willing to go with me…

At nine in the evening, the night breeze gently swept in.

On the fifteenth-floor ward, Jasper was in a video conference when he heard a noise from outside, and the door to his room was left slightly open.

“Ms. Eileen, please wait a moment. Mr. Smith is in a meeting; it will be over soon,” Richard informed her.

Eileen replied, “Since he’s busy, I won’t disturb him. Richard, please give him this ticket.”

Upon seeing the ticket, Richard smiled, feeling a touch of surprise.

Eileen didn’t realize she had come at an inconvenient time. Anxious about broaching the subject, she handed the ticket to Richard, conveniently asking him to pass it on.

At that moment, Fabian emerged from inside, holding a notebook in his hands. He opened. the door and said, “Ms. Eileen, Mr. Smith’s meeting has ended. You may go in now.”

Eileen gripped the ticket tightly, unintentionally causing a slight crease. She hadn’t anticipated there being others.

Mr. Smith? His last name is Smith?

Lost in thought, Eileen heard Fabian calling, “Ms. Swan?”

She quickly regained her senses and, after some hesitation, decided to enter.

It appeared that Jasper had just finished a task, tidying up the documents in his hands and setting them aside. His eyes, as clear as water, were fixed on her. Perhaps due to his busy. schedule, there was a hint of fatigue in his gaze.
