CHAPTER 239

  It was a lively Monday when Eunice get to work. But what surprised her is the note on her computer: ‘This seat was long vacated. Don’t leave it empty again.’

  She roamed her eyes around and guessed who could have put it there. However, they are so focused on their tasks, that no one has noticed her observing them. Hence, she has just paste it back to be her daily reminder.

  “Someone really looks so blooming today, isn’t she?” one asked.

  “I think so, too. What do you think happened during her leave?” another replied teasingly.

  “Everyone, please stay focused,” the Head halted the commotion, to which she thanked inwardly.

  “And Eunice,” he then called. “This is for you.”

  She stared at the brooch he gave her and checked her workmates’. “Thank you, Sir!”
