Betsy Russell felt a dull pain in her chest and sighed lightly, saying, "Please thank Thad Drew for me."
"Yes." Natalie responded and walked outside.
Betsy was now alone in the office. She looked at the insulated box and was about to take a sip when her hand barely touched the box. Somehow, she remembered the horror story Thad told when he invited her to have hot pot at his house, and then thought of his dark, unfathomable eyes. Betsy shivered uncontrollably.
Betsy picked up the proposal and laid back down on the sofa to read it.
While reading, Betsy unknowingly fell asleep.
She didn't know how long it had been when she heard knocking on the door. Betsy groggily took the proposal off her face and put it aside, then sat up sleepily and said, "Come in!"
It was not Natalie who came in, but Jared Hughes.
