Moira suddenly felt an indescribable happiness and sweetness in her heart. The corners of her mouth curled slightly, and her cheeks flushed red.
Noticing her shy reaction. Page cautiously asked. “Moira, what do you think? Can you take half a day off from work tomorrow?”

Under the sunlight, the blush on her face was particularly striking. She might not have even realized it herself, but her attitude toward him had softened significantly. She was no longer bristling with defensiveness and instead carried a hint of girlishi shyness.
Conrad said nothing, lowering his head as his deep, dark eyes locked onto her unwaveringly
