The lighter he closed the door, the more furious he actually was.
Left alone in the room, Josie couldn’t fall asleep. It was only around dawn that she finally slept, but countless
worries still lingered in her mind.

around her, and the seat was lowered down completely. She noticed a blanket on her body which kept her warm.
She rubbed her eyes as she slowly sat up. After looking around her surroundings, she noticed she was still in

As the managers filed out of the room, Ivy stopped taking the meeting minutes and asked, “Is it time for lunch, Mr.
Dexter?”
He closed the cap of his golden-plated fountain pen and placed it on the table. Just when he was about to get up, he
saw Josie being stirred awake from the screen.
She seemed confused and dazed upon awakening but soon folded the blanket and placed it neatly aside. Then, she
