The room was neatly arranged and showed no signs of anyone sleeping there. The bathroom was empty too.
He couldn’t have gone to work so early, could he? Audrey tightened her nightgown. Just as she was about to take out her phone, hesitating whether to call Ryan and ask, she received a message, and it was from Ryan.
Ryan’s message read, “I won't cover these days. I'll pick you up on the day of Mr. Lambert Senior's birthday banquet.” Audrey returned to the living room and sat down on the couch. She held her phone. absentmindedly.

She was sure that he had cto have feelings for her at the dining hall, but he had stopped just in time, unlike the previous days when he had been relentlessly pursuing her with aggressive dominance.

Was it because he was jealous and upset when she worJtatteo’s suit? Or was he tired of her? It wasn’t until she heard the sound of rain tapping on the windows outside that Audrey snapped out of her thoughts. She got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking out at the pouring rain in Mythravia.
She didn’t know when she had started feeling anxious about Ryan.

“Alright, I'll organize it and send it to your email before tonight.” “Thank you.” After hanging up the phone, Audrey stretched lazily. It was already past four in the afternoon. She had only drunk a glass of milk since she woke up this morning, and now, after finishing reviewing all the documents, she started to feel hungry.
Audrey's phone vibrated, and she turned around to pick it up from the couch. It was a call from Daphne.
She answered, “Daphne!” “Audrey, Azure, Joseph, and | cto Mythravia University for an exchange and it’s just finished now. We're going back to Cloudmill tomorrow. Do you have ttonight? Let's have dinner together!” Daphne sounded cheerful.
