Julie nodded in understanding, but she couldn't help but remark, “It's just that, he seemed Like a good man. He was well-dressed, too, and spoke eloquently. It also seemed like he loves Matthew very much.” “None of that matters,” Melissa said lightly. “I don't think he will be back again” She was swamped with work, but she made a point of making time for Matthew. They played around until nine in the evening, after which, she sent the boy to bed. And then it was time to get back to the
documents that needed her attention. Shortly before midnight, Julie brought her something to eat. “Why don't you call it a night?” she said to Melissa in concern. “You wouldn't want to strain your eyes, would you?” Melissa took a bite of the cookie. “With the amount that they're paying me, it is my responsibility to carry Mr. Watson's burdens.

Given how tight her self-imposed schedule was, it only made sense for her to put in overtime hours.
Julie sighed. Although she felt for Melissa, she was also happy for the latter's milestones. “If only my son was as diligent as you. | won't have to worry about his future so much.” “Oh, | think Shawn's doing fairly well,” Melissa replied with a smile.
“Janet told me that he recently bought her a whole set of jewelry.” Julie couldn't help but smile at that. It was always nice to know that loved ones were living a good life. “Then, | shall leave you to your work.
Don't stay up too late though.” Melissa nodded and waited until the older woman had left.
With the sole light coming from her desk lamp, she propped her chin on her hand and browsed through the pile of paper. Before she knew it, the clock registered one o'clock.

It was from Marcus. “How is Matthew today?” Melissa typed out her reply. “He is doing all right. He was in good spirits the whole day” A minute passed, but she received no other message.
Melissa put her phone aside and took a shower. When she came out, there was a new message. “I can help you finance the Watson Group.” Why would she ask for his help? If it hadn't been for Marcus, the Watson Group wouldn't be in such a tight spot to begin with.
But she didn't want to offend him, so after careful consideration, she only sent him two words. “Thank you” In another part of the city, Marcus stared at his phone screen and pondered the meaning of those words. He thought long and hard about it, but couldn't quite figure out what she meant. Was it a yes or ano? His musings were interrupted when Waylen pushed through the door.
“Staying up so late?” he said with a scoff as he plopped down on the seat across from Marcus. “Itis said that single men are prone to have problems sleeping. Seems true enough to me.”
