The moment he stepped into the office, he drew everyone’s attention.

The receptionist couldn’t help but skip a beat when she laid eyes on him.

He was like a walking dream of someone’s first love!

Lindsey came out of her office, extending a hand towards Sumner.

“Welcome aboard, Sumner.

I hope you enjoy working with us.

The crowd was visibly surprised.

He had just signed on with Lindsey!

Xiomara peeked from her desk, her eyes fixating on the strikingly handsome man before her, instantly captivated by his allure.

As something came into her head, Xiomara let out a sigh.

She lounged back in her chair, pulling open the drawer to retrieve the drug Lindsey had once given her.

“Xiomara, did Lindsey give you that medicine to help with weight loss?”

Her female colleague glanced at the medicine box in Xiomara’s hand and inquired.

With a slight nod, Xiomara pressed her lips together in confirmation.

“Wow, she’s really looking out for you.

Does she really plan to train you to be a star or something?” the female colleague said sarcastically.

Xiomara quickly clarified, “No, no! It’s just a one-time help.

There’s nothing more to it!”

The female colleague huffed and stopped talking with her, but from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the box of that particular medicine.

After Sumner got settled in his role, Lindsey received a call from Juanita around noon.

“Linds, come home for lunch.

I’ve prepared your favorite foie gras.

“Mom, there’s a lot on my plate at the office.

I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it for lunch.

” Lindsey was somewhat conflicted and unsure about facing her mother.

Moreover, she genuinely was swamped with work, so she declined the invitation politely.

Juanita appeared to grasp her intentions and said slowly, “I realize it was my mistake yesterday.

I didn’t take your feelings into consideration… I’m sorry.

If lunchtime is too busy for you, what about dinner? It’s been so many years since we’ve had a proper talk.

“I…” Lindsey found herself hesitating, recalling her conversation with Domenic from the morning.

“Linds, if you don’t show up, does that mean you can’t forgive me?”

Juanita’s voice sounded disheartened on the other end of the call.

Lindsey felt her resolve soften.

She sighed and said, “I’ll come over after I finish at work.
