Out of Ashes Into His Heart novel Chapter 50

Given Tom's status, he probably had everything he could ever want; it was all the highest luxury.

For example, the watch he wore at today's banquet was worth at least eight figures.

Dawn pondered briefly before suggesting, "How about a lighter? It's a consumable, so no matter how expensive, it won't be that much."

"Tom doesn't seem to smoke, though..."

"Doesn't he?" She immediately retorted, "I saw him smoking from a distance a few days ago at the city hall!"

I felt a bit awkward, as I had never seen him smoke when we were together. Maybe his smoking habit wasn't strong.

"Alright. I'll go with your suggestion and get a lighter."

...

My colleagues and I had to work three extra days because I was still in my probationary period at work, and the production team was pushing us hard to finish the voiceover.

"We can finally rest!"

"Yeah, I feel like I've been working to death these past three days!"

"Everyone works for a living. Stay calm."

"Finally, we get a day off! Does anyone have plans? Where are we going to have fun?"

"What fun? I just want to go home and sleep."

While laughing at my colleagues' casual conversations, I packed up my things.

When Lucas announced the holiday, I had already planned with Dawn to pick out a gift for Tom.
