Chapter 166 "That's good." Steven liked their current interaction of keeping a distance between them. "I still have swork to handle. You can go back now." Jessica placed the gift box into the bag, unable to hide her joy. "Okay." Steven watched Jessica's retreating figure, and his frown deepened.

Wasn't it said that you only spent money on someone you like? He had spent so much money on Jessica. Logically, that should mean he liked her, right? But he couldn't bring himself to be intimate with her. Steven fiddled with the diamond ring in his hand.

He couldn't understand why.

After lunch, Sasha had already woken up when I returned to the office.

While eating before, I had already thought about how to depict today's events in the comic and how to maintain the storyline while also adding sfun elements to make it more interesting.

So, after sitting back on the couch, I planned to continue drawing.

"Don't work just yet." Sasha wrapped her arms around mine, her body almost pressed against mine. "Talk tofor a while." Her voice was soft and sweet.

I turned to look at her and asked, "What do you want to talk about?" Sasha's expression becserious. "Didn't you suggest that I should focus on my career?" I nodded.

Sasha looked troubled. "I think what you said makes sense, but I don't know what I should do." She put on a flattering expression. "So I was wondering if you have any suggestions for me." I thought about it seriously. "Why not think about what you're really interested in?" Sasha shook her head. "No. There are so many things I like." "Find the one thing you like the most." Sasha fell silent.

I continued, "Just think carefully. Among all those hobbies of yours, is there one that you simply can't let go of? One that you can't abandon?" Sasha hesitated before saying, "Yes." I patted her hand. "Then, go for that one." Sasha stared atlong before saying, "Okay!" Zane casually flipped through the documents, but his attention was constantly on Annalise in the partition.

Before Sasha arrived, it had just been him and Annalise in the office, and he enjoyed the tthey spent alone together.

But with Sasha's arrival, she would find reasons to talk to Annalise, and Annalise no longer had tto chat with him.

No. He needed to figure out a way to get Sasha to leave! It was 5:30 pm, and it was tto go pick up Willow.

Sasha insisted on coming with us. But halfway through, she received a phone call.

After talking to the person on the other end, she turned upset and said goodbye to us.

I sat in the car, glancing at Zane beside me.

Zane smiled and leaned toward me. "What's wrong?" I thought for a moment, then decided to ask, "Do you dislike Sasha?"

"Mm," Zane openly admitted. "She's tried to get close toa few times 197 before. Kvemever had a good En: impression of people like her." Zane thought for a moment, taking the opportunity to address the issue.

Maybe cutting off her connection with Sasha would be a good choice. "I even feel like her approaching you might be part of her attempt to get closer to me." I understood. "You're worried she'll bother you?" Zane nodded.

I stayed silent for a moment, then finally looked at him. "In that case, I'll go downstairs to find her next tspre comes looking for me. That way, it won't affect you." If he didn't like someone, I wouldn't force him to tolerate it.
