With the support of Soren, a top international celebrity, Missy might just have a shot at breaking into the top–tier beauty market.

And once Missy reached that level, the road ahead would be much more secure.

Even so, Eliza really didn’t want to get involved with Nn’s brother any further.

Meanwhile-

“Soren! Soren, I love you!”

“You’re amazing, Soren! Keep it up!”

A crowd of fans had already surrounded his van ihe moment he wrapped up hisst shoot of the day.

Soren gave them polite nods before quickly getting into the car with his manager shielding him from the crowd.

Once inside, Soren leaned back with a weary look.

His manager said, “Missy sent an invite for dinner tonight. I’ve confirmed the time and location. But… you look wiped out. Want to reschedule for another day?”

Soren rubbed his temples. “When I’m free, she might not be. Let’s just do it today.”

“She?”

His manager raised an eyebrow.

iWho’s /iishe/ii? /i

“I don’t have anything else going on tonight. Let’s head to Missy now.”

Seeing Soren make up his mind, the manager didn’t say more.

The car headed straight for Missy’s headquarters.

Eliza had been busy in her office when her assistant came in with a message–Soren was already on his way.

She immediately put down her documents. “Now? But it’s only four thirty.”

“Put everything on hold for now. I’ll go see what’s going on.”

“Got it, Ms. Rivers.”

Eliza smoothed out her clothes and headed downstairs to greet him.

Given Soren’s status, and the fact that they were technically asking him for a favor, she had to handle this with care.

Soon, Soren’s van pulled up at the main entrance.

His manager escorted him into the lobby.

Even though he wore a simple tracksuit, the front desk staff couldn’t help sneaking photos–he still looked unbelievably good.

Eliza walked up to him with a warm smile and extended her hand. “Soren, wee.”

Soren took her hand with a faint smile. “Getting a meeting with Ms. Rivers isn’t easy.”

“I was out for a couple days and didn’t expect you toe in person. I owe you an apology. Dinner’s on me tonight.”

She was genuinely apologetic.

Soren replied, “I’m pretty tired. Is there somewhere I can rest for a bit?”

“Of course. There’s a lounge upstairs.”

Eliza chuckled. “I’m a huge fan of taking naps, so I actually set up a little bed in my office. Superfy. You’ve been filming all day–you must be exhausted.”

Soren truly was tired. He didn’t even have the energy to speak.

Still, he did his best to keep smiling in front of Eliza.

Once they entered the elevator, she turned her head slightly and got a good look at him.

“Soren, you look really tired.”

“A little.”

When the elevator doors opened, Eliza led him straight into her office.

She quickly unfolded a copsible bed, added a plush pillow and a soft office nket.

“Try it. It’s reallyfortable.”

Moved by her hospitality, Soreny down without hesitation.

The nket she’did out was incredibly soft–surprisingly cozy for an office setting.

Usually when he was tired, he could only manage a nap in the van. He rarely had the luxury of sleeping in a real bed.

But here, in Eliza’s office, he fell asleep almost instantly.

As she looked at his sleeping face–one that bore a striking resemnce to Nn’s–Eliza felt a strange sense of emotion.

When Soren finally opened his eyes again, only a dim light was on in the room. Outside, it was already dark.

He quickly realized he had slept deeply. It had been a long time since he’d felt this rested.

He nced over at the couch–Eliza was asleep there too.

For a moment, he wasn’t sure how to wake her.
