"Aveline, I know you plan to leave, but you're still here, still in this position. You have to complete your responsibilities. The stuisn't just mine," Maria said firmly. Aveline's eyelashes fluttered slightly before she replied, "Alright, I understand." Though her relationship with Maria was friendly outside of work, here in the studio, they were just employer and employee.

Aveline's sudden decision to resign hadn't angered Maria, likely out of respect for their past friendship. But if Aveline were to do nothing now and simply wait to leave, she'd be taking advantage of that friendship. Maria reached out and squeezed her shoulder gently. "Thank you for understanding." Back in the meeting room, Aveline continued discussing the contract details with Patrick. He had considerable assets, so he had no objections to the costs involved in building the house.

After they finished going over everything, Patrick paid the deposit. Aveline would need to visit the site for an inspection and then prepare the blueprints.

Maria watched her for a moment before saying, "I'm planning to visit his mother at the hospital. Do you want to cwith me?" "Sure," Aveline agreed. She had always liked Ruth and saw no reason to refuse.

The two of them bought sthings and headed to the hospital. The hallway was filled with the scent of disinfectant. Aveline knocked lightly on the door of the patient room. A nurse quickly cover and, seeing her, smiled warmly. "Miss Young, you're here." Aveline nodded and asked, "Is she asleep?" The nurse shook her head. "No, she's talking with Sidney." Aveline and Maria entered the room together.

Sidney, hearing the noise, cout to see who it was. When he saw them, his expression froze for a moment. "You're here," Sidney greeted them.

Aveline nodded. "We cto see your mom." "Is that Miss Young?" Ruth called out as she heard Aveline's voice.

"Yes, it's me," Aveline replied, walking over to her.

Ruth looked delighted to see her, though she was visibly more frail and weak than before.

"Ma'am, have you eaten?" Aveline asked with concern.

Ruth nodded. "Yes, I have. Sidney ate with me." Maria also ccloser. "Ma'am, you look great today! It won't be long before you're out of here." "Oh, Miss Maria, you're here too! I'm so happy you both cto see me. You didn't need to bring anything," Ruth said, noticing the items Maria had brought.

Ruth chuckled with joy. "With my health right now I can't dance at all." now. Maria replied, "That's exactly why you need to eat these goodies.set that when you get out of here, you'll surprise everyone with your moves!" "Alright!" she laughed.

They chatted with Ruth, lightening the heavy atmosphere in the room.

Sidney stood quietly to the side, his expression calm, but his eyes m calm, revealed a complex emotion.
