Adalyn cast a quick glance at Malcolm, continuing to film the scene as he had instructed.

As Rosalynn elaborated on her design concept, a waiter approached to serve her water.

Adalyn bumped into him on purpose, causing the water to spill onto Rosalynn.

“I'm sorry, it was unintentional," the waiter immediately apologized.

Rosalynn checked her laptop first, relieved to find only a few drops of water on it. She quickly wiped them away with a tissue.

“Your clothes are wet. Go clean yourself up," Cedric suggested.

Rosalynn acknowledged him with a nod.

"Alright. Please wait a moment."

Once she'd entered the restroom, Cedric turned to Adalyn.

"Put the ring in her bag."

"Alright!"

Exiting the restroom, Rosalynn prepared to further elaborate on her design concepts.

Cedric, however, Lifted his hand to interrupt her.

"Alright, I've got the gist of it. I'll mull it over and get back to you tomorrow."

“Alright then, Mr. Perez, I'll be on my way," Rosalynn announced.

“Alright ."

Stepping out of the private room, Rosalynn frowned slightly.

Had he really just let her go?

Had she misread him?

Was this all just about design?

Making her way to the elevator, Rosalynn intended to retreat to the sanctuary of her studio.

But her exit was halted abruptly.
