Alex, in a rare moment, found himself lost in a deep, contemplative silence. After what felt like an eternity, he gave a faint acknowledgment to Derek, signaling his understanding of the situation. Without even sparing a glance in Derek's direction, he simply said, "That's all for now. You can leave." Relieved that Alex hadn't expressed any grievances toward NexRealm Studios, Derek took advantage of his boss's seemingly calm demeanor and quickly exited the office. However, not ten minutes had passed when Derek was summoned back. On the outside, he maintained a composed appearance, but internally, his heart raced with apprehension as he entered Alex's office. "Damn," Derek thought, "I haven't been with NexRealm Studios for years. Don't pin their spending on me." With a nervous stride, Derek approached Alex's desk, eyes darting towards the man seated behind it. Alex looked up, his instructions concise. "Get the documentation from Leonard regarding the work of the new strategist." D

This left Alex with a hint of envy. Michelle patiently explained to the child her need to work, and although Lizzy was initially quite upset, she was eventually pacified by Michelle's assurances. Once Lizzy was appeased, Michelle could finally focus her energy on her job.

In truth, Michelle held no particular fondness for Brandon. From her work perspective, he might just be another superior poised to overshadow her. In the context of their industry, Michelle held in low regard authors who abandoned their projects midway. Although her bosses were some of those very authors, it didn't prevent her from looking down on them as peers. Faced with Brandon's kind offer, Michelle politely declined. Michelle responded, "Thank you, but someone is picking me up." Brandon felt a pang of disappointment. Still, he sought another opportunity to spend time alone with her. "Maybe next time I could treat you to coffee?" he offered with a benign smile, adding, "We can discuss the game's storyline in the process." Michelle had intended to refuse, but when Brandon brought up work as a reason, she found herself cornered. "Alright then," she relented with a smile. Brandon then successfully added Michelle on W******p. Once Michelle had left, Leonard shot Brandon a look t

The next day, as per usual, Alex came to Michelle's house for breakfast. Michelle glanced up at him, noticing the weary look on his face, seemingly from a restless night. Her gaze then shifted to the child beside him, who wore the same gloomy expression. Michelle thought to herself, "Like father, like daughter." Though she mentally joked about their similarities, Michelle still expressed concern towards the child's father. Looking at Alex with eyes filled with a mix of care and worry, she asked, "Mr. Ye, did you not sleep well last night?" Alex took a seat across from her. He met her gaze for a brief moment, his expression neutral, before his attention seemed to wander elsewhere.
