Harmon stood there, watching Anastasia’s back for a while Anastasia and Lauren were heading towards the design department, their voices soft, their demeanor striking, and their smiles so welcoming

Harmon couldn’t help but smile, thinking how great it would be if his date were Anastasia. The thought flickered in his mind, subtly shifting his mood.

Anastasia returned to her desk and realized she hadn’t had time to sort out the design drawings in her rush to the cafetena earlier

As she began to organize the designs, Lauren saw and exclaimed, “Wow, this is really beautiful. Anastasia! Did you design this?”

Anastasia replied with a smile. Yes, I just sketched it out. I used to sell my designs at stalls”

“Anastasia, you’re amazing Lauren praised, “No wonder your designs are so gorgeous, I’m totally in love with this bracelet”

Anastasia smiled. But I don’t have the chance to really use my skills.”

Selena never gave Anastasia a chance to showcase her talents, always making her do menial tasks like greeting clients. And those clients looking for Selena’s jewelry designs were all high society, each one a handful to handle

There will be a chance one day” Lauren reassured.

Anastasia smiled, she had already put Selena in a tight spot before, she had seen this coming

When it was time to finish work, Anastasia was still busy Selena had assigned her more tasks, and by the time she got home, it was already 10 p.m.

She checked her phone, no messages from Herman. Anastasia figured he must be busy, so she didn’t think too much of it and decided to take a bath to

relax

Monica had suggested she go to a beauty salon for a treatment the next day. She had a friend who owned one, which was very convenient for her. Monica used to take Anastasia there often, and it was always free for Anastasia But she felt awkward about it after going twice and didn’t go again. Recently, she had been staying up late frequently, her skin wasn’t in the best condition. To maintain her personal image. Anastasia started paying attention to her appearance and agreed to go to Monica’s salon.

The next morning.

Anastasia woke up early, cooked something for herself to eat, then got a message from Herman: Are you up?

She giggled at her phone: I’m up and having breakfast.

She took a picture of her breakfast and sent it to Herman.

Herman replied: I’ll be back in a couple of days. If you’re bored, you can ask your aunt or mom to take you out.

Anastasia laughed and replied: I’m going to Monica’s beauty salon for a skincare treatment later.

-Herman replied Ok

Even a few simple words made Anastasia very happy

After breakfast, Anastasia was about to leave when the doorbell rang

She curiously answered the door to see a strange woman standing there: “What’s wrong with your home? Water leaked into my ceiling and damaged my newly renovated house.”

“Leak?”

Anastasia was baffled, she hurried to the bathroom and sure enough, water had overflowed and the whole bathroom was flooded. This room. After moving to Herman’s bedroom, she seldom visited this room. She had no idea when the faucet had broken.

Anastasia immediately apologized to the neighbor: T’m sorry I’ll deal with it right away”

was her old

She tried to turn off the tap as quickly as possible, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t turn it off. In the end, she had to shut off the main valve She didn’t have time to clean up the water in the house and went downstairs to assess the neighbor’s damage.

The neighbor was furious “Look at this! The ceiling is leaking, it was renovated for my son’s wedding I was away for just two days and now it’s all flooded. The wedding is coming up, this is a mess

Tm really sorry, I didn’t know the faucet was broken. Don’t worry, I’ll compensate you. You won’t suffer any loss”

Anastasia was really tired last night, she had taken a bath and then gone to bed, totally unaware of this. She understood the neighbor’s anger and knew she had to deal with the problem quickly

The neighbor insisted that Anastasia solve the problem immediately as she couldn’t delay her son’s wedding. Anastasia first calmed the neighbor, then went to find the property management. A leak was a

big problem and needed their help. She also needed to notify the landlord, as the broken faucet wasn’t her fault, the landlord also had responsibility

Anastasia didnt know how to contact the landlord and didn’t want to bother Herman about it, so she went directly to the property management “Could you please help me find the contact information for the owner of unit 802, building 3, floor 8. The apartment’s got a leak, my husband’s the only one with the landlord’s contact and he’s not home right now, so I need your help”

The staff replied: “Ainight, just give me a moment”
