Sarah listlessly finished the photoshoot, feeling down the entire afternoon.
On the way back, she barely spoke, though Scarlett seemed to be in a good mood.
"You know," Scarlett said, breaking the silence, "I'm actually glad to see you like this. Sasa, when you're feeling
sad, just let yourself be sad for a while. No one expects you to keep holding it in forever. If you're down, let
yourself sink into it. And if you really need to, cry it out. You've been carrying too much for too long. Stop
pretending to be strong-at least not in front ofor Melvin. Just be yourself."
Sarah let out a bitter smile.
Her entanglement with Zachary had always been a cycle-back and forth, between fleeting happiness and deep
SOIToW.
She'd soften every the cto her, only to feel crushed the moment she saw him standing beside Vivian.
Scarlett checked the time. It was only nine in the evening.
"Stop the car!" she suddenly told the driver. "Turn around-head to St. Ritz."
Sarah looked at her, puzzled, but didn't object.
Scarlett led her straight into St. Ritz, storming into Steven's office.
The moment she saw him, she waved a hand. "Stop! Don't say a word. Just seeing you remindsof your

Sarah accepted it, and even before unwrapping it, the rich aroma had already begun wafting out, making her
mouth water.
They sat on the steps outside St. Ritz, munching on tacos.
People passing by, including well-dressed guests entering the hotel, turned their heads, puzzled by the
unexpected scene.
Sarah had never imagined herself squatting by the roadside, eating tacos-but oddly enough, it felt good.
By ten in the evening, Scarlett gave Sarah a knowing look. "Con, I'm taking you somewhere tonight. Little
lady, you better remember to repaywith your undying devotion."
The car cruised along Riverbay Avenue, weaving through long streets before stopping at an alleyway in the city's
most bustling district.
They stepped into a bar, and just as they reached the entrance, Scarlett draped an arm over Sarah's shoulder
with a smirk. "Tonight, don't even think about that scumbag. Want to hear a dose of motivational wisdom?"
Sarah humored her. "Let's hear it."
Scarlett cleared her throat and
tically intoned, "Oh, my dearest

Sarah immediately pulled her inside. "Why do you sound like you're reciting poetry?"
"You didn't like that? | have different versions. Want to hear the nightclub edition?"
Sarah raised a brow. "Go ahead."

Just as she finished speaking, she grabbed Sarah's wrist. “Con, I'm taking you to see a tiny corner of that
