Glimpse of the Future

“I think you all should go crash at home,” Ace said as he turned to address Julianna and her team.

“We’ll stay here till the first report comes in,” Julianna replied while sounding quite stubborn.

“Fine. Do what you want…” Ace muttered in resignation.

“Thank you. Don’t worry, we’re fine…” Julianna replied with a smile.

I could understand why Julianna didn’t want to go home. If I were her, I would probably do the exact same thing. After spending the entire night working with her team to fix the situation that we were in, who wouldn’t want to be in the office along with everyone else to see their effort bear fruit. I prayed that everything would be smooth sailing and that the result would turn out just as Julianna had expected.

“Is there something that I can help out with?” I asked Ace hopefully.

“Nope. Nothing at all. Let’s wait patiently for the report to come in. In the meantime, if you have anything to take care of, you can go ahead,” Ace replied casually.
