The Night I Let Go

Molly started her livestream at 8:00 pm. However, things were very different from last night. There were merely a scant number of viewers in it. Although some of them gave her rewards, she only got a little over 100 dollars in total.

After two hours of livestream, Molly shut it down. It was 10:00 pm now.

She timidly walked toward Zachary's room and stood in front of its door. At first, she wanted to knock on the door, but she was worried about disturbing him. So, she turned the doorknob and went inside.

Only the night light was kept on in there, and it was considerably dim inside. Molly used the restroom and tiptoed her way to the side of the bed.

Underneath the gloomy light, Zachary's eyes were shut tightly. It seemed like he was asleep. She stared at his stunning face for a brief moment. Eventually, she climbed onto the bed and snuggled up to him.

Molly wasn't sure if she was mistaken, but Zachary's even breathing halted for the briefest of seconds. She tucked him in before she hugged him with one hand and leaned tightly against his chest.

Before long, Molly dozed off to sleep.

Zachary was supposed to be asleep, but he slowly opened his eyes after half an hour. He turned his head sideways to look at Molly, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and his lips curled into a grin without him knowing.

Zachary exerted more pressure and pulled her in closer. The night went by, and not a word was spoken in the room.noveldrama

The next morning, the area next to Zachary was already empty by the time he woke up. He freshened up and walked out of his room, and he was welcomed by the delicious scent of food.

Molly had an apron tied around her waist and wished Zachary a good morning. After breakfast, both of them walked out the door. Once he reached his company, he went straight to Yasmine's office in the marketing department.

"I've finished reading the marketing department's documents, Ms. Lane."

Yasmine had just turned on her laptop. She giggled when she heard what Zachary said, and she picked up three files from her desk before handing them to him.

"This is the information for the Economic Development Zone project. We have just finalized it, and I think it'll be perfect to start you off with this, Mr. Lloyd."

"Alright." Zachary nodded and left after he took the files. He returned to his office and spent two hours reading through them. Then, he made some modifications tothe project.

It was noon by the time Zachary was done. He intended to go to the cafeteria in the company, but he received a text from Anya before he could leave his office.

"See me in my office."

Zachary didn't think anything of it. He entered the elevator and made his way to the floor where Anya was. The moment he walked into the CEQ's office, he saw the dishes laid out nicely on the coffee table.

Anya was sitting on the couch and laying down the utensils. When she noticed Zachary coming in, she raised her head and smiled lovingly. "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get over here. The lunch is ready."

"I thought you were not interested in having a meal with me." Zachary was a little confused, but he walked over nonetheless.

Anya fell silent, and she didn't respond to his question. Both of them didn't talk to each other and had their meal quietly.

Then, something popped into Anya's mind. So, she broke the silence and said, "I've contacted my friend, and she's asking to see us after work."

Zachary responded, "Sure. I'll let Molly know about it. I'll ask her to come over here once she's done with school."
