In the break room, stairwell, and restroom…
Those were all blind spots for the surveillance cameras and shrouded in shadow…
…
In the logistics department, Aileen peered through the blinds of her office, closely observing everyone's actions.
She planned to report her findings to Nathaniel.
In addition to Diana and Rowena, she knew others were lurking in the background, more cunning and harder to detect.
Nathaniel had instructed her to investigate quietly and thoroughly.
At the end of the workday, Mavis remained at her desk, engrossed in the files Nathaniel had previously assigned her.
Although she was not currently tasked with any specific projects, she did not want to stop learning.
As Diana strutted by in her high heels, she could not resist a snide comment.
''Mavis, I never expected you to be so bold and openly skimmed off company funds. Mr. Nicholls despises that kind of behavior. If he finds out, your days at the Nicholls Group are numbered, aren't they?''
Mavis shot her a glare. ''I still stand by what I said: what goes around comes around.''
She stood up and deliberately bumped Diana's shoulder as she walked past, maintaining her composure and leaving with confidence.
Once outside the company, Mavis felt lost, wandering aimlessly.
So much had happened recently, and she yearned for someone to talk to, someone she could confide in.
She pulled out her phone and scrolled through her contacts, only to realize, to her dismay, that she did not have any friends in Froania.
Sheena's name caught her eye.
They had exchanged numbers during their visit to Asher's aquarium.
Mavis hesitated.
Calling out of the blue might startle Sheena.
Besides, if Nathaniel found out she had contacted Sheena privately, he likely would not be pleased.

The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
