“Next phase you can…” It was still that muffled male voice.

From Brian’s movements, it looked like he had opened a new voice message. Brian must have responded to something, but the office door had excellent soundproofing–she could only catch a few vague words here and there.

It sounded like they were discussing work. ‘Have all the previous conversations been about work too?‘ Jessica wondered.

That would actually make sense. After all, Brian had always been a workaholic, and spending so much time with her lately

was what seemed unusual.

Jessica looked down, lost in thought, when she heard Brian’s voice again through the door, sounding worried and uncertain. “Do we really have to… Isn’t there another way…”

‘Another way to what?‘ Jessica couldn’t help but think. She pressed her entire body against the door to listen.

“This is the most direct approach. It only takes a few times… I hope you can…”

The muffled male voice sounded somewhat familiar, but Jessica couldn’t quite place where she’d heard it before. More importantly, whatever they were discussing definitely didn’t sound like work.

‘Who is Brian talking to?‘ Jessica wondered, lowering her head.

Just then, the voices outside suddenly stopped.

Jessica snapped back to reality and quickly yanked the door open, going on the offensive. “What are you doing out here?”

Brian had caught a glimpse of her reflection on the door and suspected she’d been eavesdropping, but her question instantly put him at ease. He explained gently, “Something came up at the office that needs my attention now. Did I disturb you? I’ll go further away next time.”

“Fine,” Jessica replied coldly, grabbing her cup as she headed toward the break room.

Brian immediately took the cup from her hands and asked what she wanted to drink so he could get it for her.

Jessica casually mentioned juice and watched him stride toward the break room. As she thought back to the conversation she’d overheard, her instincts told her something wasn’t right, but she couldn’t put her finger on exactly what bothered

her..

After dwelling on it for a while without coming up with any answers, Jessica decided to let it go for now.

That afternoon, Sana finished her last document and remembered her plans. She immediately went to ask Jessica for time off. “Jessica, it’s my friend’s birthday today and she wants to go out for drinks. Would it be okay if I came in a little late tomorrow morning?”

“Of course,” Jessica agreed easily.

Sana thanked her and grabbed her purse, heading out happily to the bar.

Night had fallen and the bar was buzzing with its usual crowd.

Sana walked in and ordered a colorful cocktail, then found an empty booth and settled in. With her drink in hand, she started scoping out potential targets for the evening.

Even for a one–night stand, she had high standards. She definitely wasn’t going to settle for less than she deserved.
