“Miss Stark, Miss Hay from the Hay Group is here to see you.” Myra received a phone call from the receptionist the moment she arrived at the company in the afternoon.

She was feeling slightly tired at that point. “Pass her the phone.”

There was a rustling noise and a sweet and crisp voice spoke over the line. “Myra, it’s Sasha. I’m at the ground floor of your company.”

“How can I help you?” Myra wasn’t too friendly because she wasn’t close with anybody from the Hays, apart from her mother-in-law.

Sasha laughed warmly. “I passed by Sean’s company because I was running some errands today, so I figured I should invite you to lunch, Myra. I’ll wait for you at the Italian restaurant just beside your company.”

Myra wanted to reject her invitation but she thought of something suddenly. In the end, she changed her mind. “In that case, hang on for a bit. I’m coming down now.”

After hanging up on the call, Myra checked her reflection in the mirror. However, the woman staring back at her didn’t look great.

And so, she tried to pump herself up.

When she arrived at the restaurant, Sasha was stirring the cup of coffee in front of her out of boredom.
