Chapter 598

With the year winding down, it's crunch time for all the branch offices and

departments to wrap up their annual summaries, so the emails are just pouring in

Brandon stares at the endless barrage of unread emails on his computer screen, his hand resting on the mouse, but he doesn't have the slightest urge to click on any of them.

Ever since the accident with Sophia, his once cherished job has become unbearable almost overnight.

Suddenly, he's just lost interest in the world; nothing sparks joy anymore. Everything seems so bland, and time just drags on, each second feeling like an eternity. Brandon's gaze drifts from the screen to a photo of Sophia on his desk. He stares at her peaceful, smiling face, motionless.
