Henry mumbled, "I want toe back too..."


    But the credits at the business school weren''t that easy to earn.


    Sanford Brooke was anxious for him. "Look at you, you spent four years there and didn''t learn a thing about seizing an opportunity! I gave you the chance, and it was useless!"


    On that front, Henry was quite clear-headed.


    "I know for a fact that she has no interest in me."


    "For me, it''s more a feeling of admiration."


    Sanford sounded wistful after hearing that. "So you''re just going to keep on like this? Following in her footsteps?"


    "Yeah." That was exactly what Henry nned to do.


    Sanford was speechless.


    What could he possibly say to that?


    Sophia brought Noreen some tangerines, saying they were from Linda in the secretarial department''s boyfriend and tasted great.


    Noreen tried one and agreed.


    "Since you ate her tangerines, you have to go to her pre-wedding partyter."


    Noreen looked at the half-eaten tangerine in her hand and could only agree.


    Linda and her boyfriend had been together since high school. They were true high school sweethearts.


    Everyone else was incredibly envious.


    Sophia said self-deprecatingly, "While you guys were already dating in high school, I was still watching Sesame Street! I''m curious, who pursued whom?"


    Linda blushed. "I pursued him."


    The private room erupted in teasing.


    Linda''s boyfriend quickly denied it. "Not really. I was the one who dropped the hints first."


    "So how did you hint?" the men started to get curious.


    "I made my username with the first letters of her name. She figured it out and then broke the ice."


    Now even Sophia was intrigued. "What kind of new confession method is this?" Using initials for a username?


    Others in the room were already eager to try.


    "The person I like is named Kali Foster. KF... Key? KFC?"


    Sophia was disdainful. "KFC? Can''t you be a little more elegant?"


    She then started thinking about what kind of username to make from her own boyfriend''s name.


    Linda tilted her head and looked at Noreen. "Ms. Gilmore, I think your name would be easy to use."


    Suddenly being called upon, Noreen pulled her thoughts back from her presentation slides. "What?"


    "Noreen Gilmore. NG. North? cier?"


    Sophia chimed in quickly, "They both

    And it''s very evocative wnovels


    A thought stirred in Noreen''s mind.


    Cold?


    She did have an online acquaintance named Frost.


    But it was probably just a coincidence. After all, she didn''t even know who it was.


    Noreen only participated briefly in this topic before returning to her presentation preparation.


    When it was gettingte, she found an excuse to leave.


    With the boss around, everyone else couldn''t really rx.


    Before she left, Noreen messaged Sophia, telling her to settle the bill.


    Sophia replied that she understood.


    After leaving the private room,

    Noreen called Colby and to t


    Ending the call, Noreen walked quickly toward the exit.


    As she passed through the corridor of private rooms, a voice that was all too familiar drifted from

    "I''m done drinking. You guys carry on. I''m going home to sleep."


    Jude looked at the time. "It''s still early, Seth. Stay a bit longer."


    "No."


    As he spoke, he had already picked up his jacket and walked to the door.


    Seeing this, Jude quickly put down his ss. "Alright, you guys drink up. I''ll see Seth out."


    Seth opened the door and walked out.
