At that moment. Leia was in the kitchen with her family, busy making bread for tomorrow's breakfast. Her phone, tucked inside her pocket, emitted a ding sound, but her hands were covered in flour. Her mother knew Leia's job was always busy and was afraid she would delay her work, so she reminded her, "Leia, just leave it to me and your dad. Quickly check your phone, maybe there's some work-related message. Don't delay.” Her father added, "That's right. It only takes a little while for your mom and me to make the bread. Wash your hands quickly and go take a look." After washing her hands, Leia grabbed a tissue to dry them and walked towards the outside. She took out her phone from her pocket and glanced at it. There were many messages, but one of them was from an unknown number, which read, [Hello.] She was hesitating if she should reply. After some thought, she chose to leave the message alone and not reply to the message.

If the other end had something important, they would message her without needing her to ask. However, after a while, the other party didn't send any messages further. Leia found it a bit strange and clicked on the profile picture, but it showed nothing useful.

At Turner Manor, Frank and Trevon as well as their family, had taken their children for a bath. All the family members had returned to their rooms. It was getting late, and it was already 11 o'clock.

Chris lay on the bed, hands crossed behind his head, deep in thought. After a moment, he picked up his phone, gazing at the newly added contact. The chat interface was open, and he began organizing his thoughts before sending a message in his mind.

Somehow, she found this attractive doctor a bit cute, momentarily forgetting about Chris's family background, and replied, [I see.] ‘Another two words," thought Chris and felt if the conversation continued this way, it would be a dead end. After some thought, he asked, [When are you returning to Athana?] Leia replied, [Scheduled for the sixth of this month, the company resumes work on the eighth.] Chris suggested, [Let's go for a run when we're back to Athana.] Leia agreed and said, [Sure.] Chris replied, [Good night.] Leia was a bit puzzled about Chris's intention to text her. She wondered, "Was it to invite her for a morning run? If that's the case, aren't they naturally meet when they are back in Athana? There's no need for an invitation." Out of politeness, she replied, [Good night.]

"But if we don't help, | think Chris will continue to be single." As soon as Ava finished speaking, Natalie looked at the messages Chris sent to Leia. Indeed, the progress of the two moved as slow as a snail, and it seemed to be slower than

She had heard in the afternoon that Chris didn't have a girlfriend, but she never expected him to confess to her tonight. For a moment, Leia didn't know how to reply to Chris. Her mind was a bit blank. During their morning run, Chris occasionally looked at her, and she felt it. Before Leia could react, Chris sent another message, [I'm serious. When | was in Athana, | realized | had feelings for you. | came to Sapphire City this time to confess to you in person, but there were too many people during the day, and | didn't say it after all.] Looking at the long message, Leia compared it with the previous self-introduction and wondered, "Why is there such a big difference? Is it the same person who sent both messages?' She was skeptical and replied, [Are you Stella?] Seeing these words, everyone laughed. Each person had a different degree of amusement on their faces, laughing at Chris.
