Kapitel 104: A Key

The morning of the next day, Liz was woken up from her dreams by a knock on the door.

She had had a restless night, half because she was amazed at herself for acting so boldly in front of the CEO, and half because she wondered whether she had done too much.

Over and over again, she had been replaying that moment in her head when she had told the CEO those final lines.

The scent coming from him had once again reminded her of all of her favorite things, only, it was much stronger because she was so close.

She could see his skin, and thus, she noticed the quiver in his body when she had talked.

She had no idea about the reason behind that quiver, and this was another question that had plagued her, not allowing her to fall asleep.

In fact, this bending forward thing hadn't even been on her agenda.

It had been a spur of the moment thing, as she had felt like she HAD to make a statement with those words.

Regardless, what was done was done.
