Tristan stopped in front of the elevator, his well-defined fingers pressing the button to go up. He didn't refuse. During the wait for the elevator, he didn't let go of the girl's hand either.

Monica was secretly delighted, but also nervous. Standing in front of him, especially when he was silent, there was always an inexplicable sense of oppression. In no time, the elevator doors opened. Tristan stepped inside, and Monica followed him like a clingy little rabbit.

The elevator ascended and soon stopped at the designated floor. The doors opened again. Monica continued to cling to Tristan's arm as if it was a habit and followed him out. Tristan glanced at her as they walked and didn't seem to mind. "Can you let go now? I'm sure your mom didn't follow us."

Just as Monica's heart sank and she was about to let go, Claire, dressed in a light and elegant dress, appeared in the hallway and walked towards them. Claire saw them too.

Monica tightened her grip on Tristan's arm, feeling awkward as she recalled the incident from the other day. Tristan stopped and calmly looked at the girl approaching them with his tall, slender frame. The girl beside him also stopped and looked at Claire.
