When Nyla saw the name "Oliver" flashing on her screen, she smiled and answered the call. "What's up?"

"Nyla, I have two tickets to an auction. Would you like to go with me? I heard there will be some beautiful jewelry on display, and I thought you might be interested," Oliver invited. Nyla raised an eyebrow, surprised that he had asked her to an auction.

"When is it?" she inquired.

"Tomorrow night," Oliver replied.

Nyla thought for a moment. She didn't have any plans for the evening, so she agreed, "Sure, you can pick me up tomorrow."

After ending the call with Oliver, she set her phone down and noticed Leon looking at her with a mischievous grin.

"Nyla, you look so happy. Was that your boyfriend on the other end?" he asked.

Nyla smiled and openly admitted, "Yep. Jealous?"

Leon, who had been single forever, always made it his birthday wish to find a partner.

Unfortunately, since he practically lived in the lab, he had little chance to meet women. The female lab mates weren't his type either, so he remained single.
