The next morning. Maeve was jolted awake by her alarm clock.

When she saw the note that read "Eternal Hope Interview," she soildenly remembered it was Monday.

She quickly left a note for Byron explaining her sitnation, then rished back to her apartment to change clothes. After grabbing her things, she hurried to Eternal Hope. Her shoulder injury still hadn't fully healed, but she was determined not to miss this hard-won opportunity.

The interview went smoothly, and the interviewer told Maeve to come back in a couple of days to complete the onboarding process. With that, she was free to go. Unable to contain her joy, Maeve walked out of the company building. Noticing it was still early, she decided to stop by fruit shop to pick up some fruit.

Normally, she wouldn't splurge, but today, with the successful interview, she decided to treat herself in celebration.

She carried the fruit back to the hospital room, ready to share the news, but paused when she saw that Karen and Archer were already there.

Archer had come to update Byron on something and was just about to leave.

Karen, on the other hand, was visiting and was seated beside Byron, peeling an apple.

The atmosphere seemed pleasant.

Maeve suddenly wasn't sure whether she should step inside.

"I had a job interview. Didn't I leave you a note?" Maeve stepped inside and placed the fruit she'd just bought on the table, her eyes shining with excitement. "I passed the interview, so I bought some fruit to celebrate with you." Byron didn didn't remember seeing any note, but he didn't dwell on it

"I don't need any. You can have i it.'

As soon as he said that, Karen chuckled softly. "Ms. Reese, Byron is quite particular about what he eats He doesn't just eat any fruit bought from a street shop. He usually only cats premium varieties."
