I’ve been working at Marcus Scott for nearly ten years, and my journey here hasn’t been easy. What about Mr. Gardner, who hasn’t even been here for a year? I agree with Mr. Moore and Mr. White.

As Emma, Cecilia, Cedric, and Alfred gathered to show their support for Zane, a voice suddenly called out from a few meters away. It was Claire. At that moment, Zane was receiving instructions from Stephen.Claire wore a pair of blue wide-leg jeans that accentuated her tall, graceful figure. Her yellow blouse was a semi-crop top with short, balloon sleeves, adding a touch of whimsy to her outfit. She completed her look with brown wedges, mostly hidden by the flowing fabric of her jeans. Claire let her blonde hair fall freely over her shoulders, the ends styled into soft curls that bounced slightly with each step. In her hands, she carefully balanced eight cups of coffee, held securely in coffee carriers."Hi, everyone," she greeted them warmly, a bright smile lighting up her face as she walked towards the group. Her cheerful greeting instantly caught everyone's attention. Zane, momentarily breaking away from his conversation with Stephen, returned her smile with genuine warmth.

It’s disgusting."“Hahaha, Zane Gardner, I don’t know what John told you. But, yes, you two were pretty close. I was hurt—it felt like unrequited love, hahaha.”“Stop your nonsense.”“Wow, you’re braver than John, huh? He should’ve learned more from you, hahaha.”Zane remained where he stood.
