Eliza nodded, trusting Vaughn completely. As they made their way back, she couldn't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude for Vaughn's quick thinking and unwavering support. The incident had shaken her, but it also solidified her confidence in Vaughn's ability to protect and guide her.
Eliza arrived back at her desk, still feeling slightly tense from the unsettling events at lunch. She tried to focus on her work, but her mind kept drifting back to the black car that had followed them. She took a deep breath, attempting to calm herself, but the unease lingered.
Anna noticed the tension in Eliza's expression and walked over. "Eliza, are you okay? You look a bit off."
Eliza forced a smile, not wanting to worry Anna. "Oh, it's nothing. Just a lot on my mind."
Anna raised an eyebrow, clearly not convinced. "Are you sure? You can talk to me, you know."
