He was stunned for several minutes. That fast?

Then, filled with some doubt about life, he posed a question: Aurelia?

Gordon stared at his phone, waiting another ten minutes.

After not receiving any messages from Aurelia on WhatsApp, Gordon let out a long sigh of relief. Thankfully, he had just been overthinking. There was no way his boss could have recovered that quickly.

Aurelia was unaware of the turmoil in Gordon’s heart. After she finished her bath, she was already on the verge of sleep.
