“If you're not busy, come over to my apartment. I'd like to try cooking something.”“Are you sure you want to cook after such an exhausting week?”“I can always order food if it doesn't turn out well.”“Then I'll come.”Angelic smiled with satisfaction.The following evening, Damian arrived carrying several bags of groceries.

I hope we can build a good working relationship.”“Trust must be proven through results, Miss Celine.”Celine smiled.“I'll remember that.”After the representatives left, she returned to her seat.
