During dinner, Annis revealed that she had booked a flight for the following afternoon.

Glenda had fallen ill upon Annis's return, so she hadn't been eating well for the past two days.

Camila suggested they have lunch out the next day, with Isaac handling the restaurant reservation.

Alick hesitated to speak, causing Annis to assume he was going to request time off. She shot him a warning glare, silently urging him not to ask for leave.

Alick shook his head; he didn't intend to take a long break, just a half-day.
