Stella Sterling left the 27th floor of Sino-Capital Tower, practically floating into the elevator.
She glanced down at her phone screen, which hadn't gone dark yet.
At the very top of her chats was Roman Rhodes, whom she had just added on WeChat.
His screen name was simple and to the point: just the word "Rhodes."
Stella Sterling's gaze shifted to the clear cake box in her right hand.
Inside sat four little white rabbit mousse cakes.
Brandon Coleman had given them to her.
He said the cafeteria had made too much, so she could take them home for dessert.
Stella Sterling felt like she was walking on clouds as she made her way to the underground parking garage.
Even after getting into her car, it all still felt unreal.
She wrapped her hands around the steering wheel and rested her delicate chin on her arms. Lost in a daze, the corners of her lips curved into a smile.
'One hundred and eighty yuan for a rewarding haul.'
'Totally worth it!'
It was a little past one-thirty.
