Hudson grinned, pleased that Lucy was happy.

Lucy stepped into her workspace and eagerly looked all around.

"This is amazing!" she exclaimed with delight.

"If you like it, that's perfect. When I was picking out the decor, I wasn't sure what you'd prefer, so I went with something simple. I've seen your early work, and it's all pretty straightforward, so I figured you'd enjoy this style." Lucy listened to Hudson and could not help but be impressed by how thoughtful he was.

"Thanks, Mr. Xender. I didn't realize you were so detail-oriented," she said with a smile.

After a bit of time admiring the new office room, Hudson invited Lucy to grab a bite to eat at the restaurant downstairs.

"Ms. Quinn, can I ask you something a bit personal?" Hudson's eyes twinkled with mischief.

Feeling intrigued, Lucy nodded. "Go ahead, Mr. Xender."
