Chapter 225 A True Return Gift

Exhausted, I returned to my office.

As soon as I entered, I was taken aback to see Eric sitting in my seat. I rubbed my eyes in disbelief. After confirming that it wasn't a hallucination, I put on a smile and walked toward him.

"You're back already? You said on the phone yesterday that you wouldn't be back until the weekend."

Although the issues abroad weren't serious, they were complicated, and Eric hadn't returned in over half a month.

Seeing him back so suddenly made me feel an unexpected happiness. I couldn't help but smile.

Eric explained with a smile, "I finished the work earlier than expected, so I decided to come back sooner."

He handed me a box as he spoke. I took the box, feeling surprised. When I opened it, my eyes widened even further. Inside was a pair of exquisite earrings made from the finest sapphires. They were flawless in every way.

"I happened to attend an auction, and when I saw these, I thought they'd be perfect for you," Eric said with a grin.
