After the quarrel between Megan and them last time, Rylan and Faye also performed well. Although the three of them couldn't reach a tacit understanding, they could handle everything well in their respective fields. Megan would not ask them to cooperate with her. She just wanted them to finish their work and go back to L City on time.
One last day, her business trip would be completely over. Megan was so excited that she got up early. She applied some cosmetics on her face and went out to work.
The Coco Group branch had arranged the best hotels in the city for the three of them. However, due to the underperformance of local economy, the best hotels were naturally not as good as those in the L City. The three of them lived in three different rooms in a row. Megan usually got up early. When she went out, the other two didn't show up at all. She had been used to it.
However, as soon as she opened the door that day, she saw Rylan smoking in the corridor. She coughed violently because of the thick smoke and greeted him, "Good morning."

She wondered if Eric had gone to bed? She leaned against the back of the chair and looked up at the sky, thinking of her son. Did he listen to his Grandma these days? That good child had always been very obedient, and he should not make trouble for his grandmother.
When she was sent here for dinner, Megan had called Eric and told him that she couldn't make video calls with him tonight. But she comforted him that they would meet tomorrow and ask him to sleep well and do more housework for his Grandma. Eric agreed everything obediently on the phone. He had kept his promises. Megan heard that he replied to her obediently. So she was going to buy him a gift when she went back.
Megan looked up at the starry sky. The stars in the sky was sort of a comfort to her. She did not know if the light shining from the eternal objects was real or not. Perhaps when the light reached her eyes, those stars had already disappeared.
