During breakfast, Ophelia glanced at the time. "Do you have plans today? You can't accompany me for the weekend, can you?" She had secretly checked Kenneth's schedule earlier.

During this period, Mark had been working tirelessly, handling all matters. Although he received a doubled annual salary, he feared he might not make it. He looked at Ophelia with a pleading expression.
