Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2095

Sylvia chuckled, "So you'd really pass up a catch like him for me?"

Magdalen sighed, "If I hadn't already fallen head over heels for Morrison, I'd chase him down myself!"

Sylvia just smiled and shrugged it off, "Honestly, I'm swamped these days; I've got no time for romance!"

"When have you ever had time?" Magdalen teased. "Stop making excuses. I've never even seen you date. As your friend, I think it's high time you considered it!"

Sylvia closed her eyes as she remembered the night she left Citadel. The man had told her to find someone she liked and to live a good life. She had agreed sincerely, truly believing it was time to bid farewell to the past and start anew.

Noting Sylvia's silence, Magdalen chuckled, "It's just a meeting, not a marriage proposal. Think of it as a life experience!"

As Sylvia signed off on a document, she replied with a light smile, "Alright, I'd be honored to have you play matchmaker for me. I'll meet him."

"It's a date then!" Magdalen beamed. "How about tomorrow noon? I'll set up the place and let you know."

"Just text me the details!" Sylvia shot back.

"Will do!"

After hanging up, Sylvia got back to work and called over her PR manager, instructing, "Bright Horizon Corp has a new product launch coming up, and they want us to handle the whole event. Get someone on that, will you?"

The manager, a sharp twenty-seven-year-old woman, grabbed the Bright Horizon file and nodded, "Consider it done, boss."

"The CEO is a decent guy, but watch out for his deputy; he's handsy. Whoever you send, make sure they know to protect themselves. I won't have any harassment on my watch!" Sylvia warned.

The manager grinned, "Understood. We all know the drill."

She nodded, "Sure, I'll think about it after this busy period."

"Great, I'll leave you to it. Don't stay too late yourself!" the manager said with concern.

"I won't. Tell everyone dinner's on me tonight, and we'll reimburse tomorrow at the office!"

"You got it!" The manager left in high spirits.

The door swung closed, and the office was filled with laughter before quieting down. Alone, Sylvia stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the dimming sky and the snowy, glass-like expanse of J City, a wave of loneliness washing over her.

She'd been in J City for years, and this was the heaviest snowfall yet.

Sylvia enjoyed the company of her colleagues, but the solitude that followed the noise and bustle always felt jarring. Better to dwell in solitude than to return to it, she mused.
