She stopped thinking about anything other than work and her children.
Life had gotten busier and more fulfilling.
After lunch, Shelly took care of Audrey so that her mother could get some rest.
Babies at Audrey's age were easy to care for, as they could not run around and had to remain where they had been set down.
Shelly grabbed the books for her driving test and read the questions aloud to entertain her daughter.
Some time later, Audrey grew bored and reached out to grab the book.
Shelly immediately carried her daughter to the window to look at the scenery outside.
"Do you want to go out and play, my precious?" she asked.
The little one made excited babbling sounds in response.
"You've just recovered from a cold! Let's play at home instead! How about watching Mommy put on makeup?" Shelly carried her daughter to her room.
She placed Audrey in the stroller and sat down in front of the vanity to apply her makeup.
She was going to a social event tonight, so it would be good to dress up a bit.
Before she knew it, the evening had arrived and Fergus had driven to the residential area where Shelly lived.
"All right! Organizing such an event must have cost a lot of money, right?" Shelly had never seen such a large banquet hall before.
Fergus replied, "Definitely. The venue, dinner, and drinks tonight are all provided for free. This is actually under employee benefits. Our company has great perks."
Shelly nodded in understanding.
Not far away, Eliam noticed that Shelly had arrived.
He immediately sent a message to Hayden. [Shelly is also attending the event. She looks really beautiful tonight.]
Just to ensure that Hayden's interest was sufficiently piqued, Eliam sneakily took a photo of her and sent it to him.
