Chapter 122

• Turning her attention to me, Haraya prodded, "Why do you have something like that anyway? And in your office too! It's not like you use hair pins."
• I nervously rubbed the back of my neck and confessed, "About two weeks into working with Jane, I realized that I had some feelings for her and bought the hairpins and a few pasteries as a gift, but I accidently heard her on the phone with Liam at the time and thought that she was talking to her husband. It wouldn't have been appropriate for me to gift her something like that if she was already married, so I stuffed the pins into a safe in my office and tried to bury my feelings with it. I completely forgot about them until you mentioned it now."
• Haraya immediately ducked her head, trying very hard to burst out in laughter.
