Chapter 9

• In the blink of an eye, two years had already passed. After starting as a staff in the Customer Experience Department, she got promoted to a Manager. In those two years, she dedicated herself to her work. She made sure she learned what needed to be learned and to deliver more than the expectations. In the brief span of time, she also earned the respect and admiration of her colleagues and superiors. Everyone felt happy about her promotion.
• After work, she and her colleagues went to a KTV bar to celebrate her promotion. Food and drinks poured out. Serene sang a couple of songs and drank her fair share of the alcohol. She has forgotten the last time she had this much fun.
• Out of habit, she bid adieu to them when it was close to midnight. She then booked a ride from her phone and waited at the lobby’s waiting area. Soon, a black sedan stopped at the entrance. She tried her best to walk in a straight line as she approached the car and opened the door. As soon as she sat, she told the driver to drive. Then she closed her eyes.
