Callan ca out of the inpatient building.
Arlo saw him co out, wanting to say sothing but maintained his cool deanor without asking anything.
Callan, perceptive as ever, glanced at his boss and teased, "President Seys, Miss Morris has quite an appetite; she ate a lot. She even specifically asked to convey her thanks to you!"
Arlo gave Callan a cold glance, his lifted mouth corner particularly irritating, so he spoke with a slightly chilly tone, "Why are you ddling?"
Callan imdiately pulled down that trace of delight from his mouth, keeping a high-cold posture, eyes steady.
His boss obviously wants to know about Miss Morris’s condition but still keeps a small proud air; as a special assistant, he’s dedicated, being considerate to the woman his boss cares about. Boss, are you sure you don’t want to raise my salary?
Callan grumbled to himself, yet on the surface maintained a calm face, obedient for the boss’s scolding.
Arlo started walking, his legs incredibly long, and Callan quickly followed along like a lackey.
Arlo paused for a mont, coldly stating, "I’m giving you the day off today. Didn’t you want to eat Aunt Forest’s cooking? Tonight, you’re allowed to co to my place and have dinner!"
Arlo finished his words and strode away.
"..."
Callan sneered at the sudden benevolence from his boss today.
Humph, saying it nicely as giving a day off! Frankly, isn’t it just throwing him to the hospital to take care of Miss Morris?
Saying he’s allowed to co for dinner, isn’t it just indirectly telling him to bring food for Miss Morris?
Boss, don’t be proud; couldn’t you say it directly? If my IQ were lower, could I even figure these things out?
Could you use fewer sches and be more straightforward?
So tired, how do I even consider resigning?
Ariel stayed in the hospital for five days, and Arlo didn’t show up even once.
Initially, Ariel thought Arlo sent Callan to bring her food because he still cared about her.
In the end, Ariel realized she was indeed overthinking!
Apart from the two als of soup delivered that day, Callan also didn’t appear again.
Ariel thinks that in Arlo’s heart, all that’s left for her is hatred.
As for the Morris Family, she’s been gone five days without returning ho, not a single call or concern. Family affection, she thinks she might never experience in this lifeti.
Because in this world, she has no relatives.

Ariel, according to the information provided by Callan, went for an interview at Era as scheduled.
Because Callan had spoken beforehand, the HR departnt imdiately employed Ariel.
Era has diversified industries; wherever there’s profit, Era is involved. Era’s most successful sectors are real estate and film dia.
Ariel’s job is the lowest level, most nial technical helper—commonly known as the errand runner.
The HR manager took Ariel and several newly recruited newcors to plan work. The group arrived at the conference room.
Upon entering.
"Ariel?!" A surprised shout suddenly erupted.
Ariel looked up, "Valeria?!"
Damn! This world is really ssed up!
Ariel looked at the woman with exquisite makeup and a hot figure, practically unable to hold back from swearing inside!
Valeria was the person Ariel couldn’t stand the most when she attended Scenic Hill High School. Valeria also probably wished they never t again!
Back when there was a Scenic Hill High School beauty pageant PK competition, Valeria overwhelmingly sat in first place, her popularity highest. Yet on the last day, she dramatically lost to Ariel, and thus a grudge ensued!
The HR manager simply introduced everyone to each other.
Only then did Ariel know Valeria, now a popular actress, is a signed artist under Era.
Valeria snorted coldly, with ridicule in her eyes, "Ariel, unexpected that you and I would have such a dramatic eting today! Didn’t you go abroad? What are you back for?!"
