By mid–afternoon, Zina received a call from Edward. “Zina, are you at the hotel?”

“Edward, are you done with your surgery?” Zina glanced toward Lydia, who was making cupcakes in front of

her.

All afternoon, Lydia kept Zina company, chatting about anything and everything, so Zina never got a chance to leave.

Edward’s voice was gentle and clear. “Just finished, Zina. Are you outside having fun? I can come pick you up.”

“No need, Edward. I’ll head back on my own later,” she said.

His voice was gentle, yet clearly exhausted. Zina didn’t want him to go through the hassle of coming all the way to pick her up again.

Edward agreed warmly, his voice mellow with laughter. “I’ll wait for you at the hotel, Zina. I heard about an amazing restaurant. Let me take you there to try it together.”

Zina nodded. “Okay.”

Lydia brought over the freshly made cake, a beautiful chocolate mousse adorned with blueberries and mint leaves in the center.

Around the edge, plump ruby–red strawberries were arranged. The color scheme was elegant and clean. It looked absolutely delicious.

Lydia set the cake down in front of Zinnia, her eyes shining with anticipation. “Zinnia, I baked you a chocolate mousse cake. I wonder if it’s still your favorite flavor.”

Zina said apologetically, “Thanks, Lydia, but I’ll have to pass on the cake. My friend is waiting for me.”

Right now, Edward mattered more to Zina than Lydia, whom she had only just met.

Lydia heard her but didn’t respond, simply offering a gentle smile. “Alright, I’ll pack this up for you to take home. Let me walk you out.”

Zina smiled and said, “Don’t worry. I drove here myself.”

Lydia lowered her gaze, a flicker of disappointment in her eyes.

“Lydia, I’ll be staying in Jinston for a while. Feel free to come visit me if you have time,” Zina quickly added.

‘Anyway, I’m alone in Jinston now, and Edward can’t be with me every day. He has a two–week academic conference starting in a couple of days,‘ Zina wondered.

Lydia’s eyes instantly lit up. “Okay.”
