She returned to her post, working diligently once more.
But her mood was completely different from before.
After all, she had just seen the person she’d been longing to see.
Aurora’s face truly was a masterpiece.
Just looking at her was like a breath of fresh air, a visual delight.
The receptionist silently hoped Aurora would stay healthy and come to work every day, just so she could see that powerful, elegant face again and again.
The thought made her nearly burst out laughing.
People walking by glanced at her with puzzled expressions, but she didn’t care in the slightest.
They didn’t understand where her joy came from and she had no reason to explain it to anyone who didn’t get it.
As long as she understood, that was enough.
The future was hers to build, step by step.
With that thought, she began softly humming a cheerful tune.
Meanwhile, Lucas and Aurora arrived at her office together.
Along the way, many employees greeted her warmly.
At first, everything felt normal–they were all used to greeting Aurora as she passed by.
But after she walked by, a few people started to realize something wasn’t right.
They glanced at one another, confused, unsure of what they’d just seen.
“Did… did you guys see that? Or was I seeing things?”
Someone finally broke the silence.
Another replied seriously, “If you were seeing things, then I was too.”
Because none of them could believe someone who had seemingly vanished for nearly a month had just reappeared at the company like nothing happened.
It was genuinely surprising.
A few people tried to recall if there had been any signs, any clues.
But after thinking hard, they still couldn’t find anything out of place.
After all, that face was unmistakably Aurora’s.
Not to mention, the authority and poise she carried were unmatched.
No one else in the company could hold a candle to that kind of presence.
And it was precisely because they had interacted with her so often before that they could recognize her in a heartbeat.
“So… why did she suddenly come back?”
“Did any of you get a heads–up?”

Everyone exchanged glances, then shook their heads in unison. “ope, we didn’t hear a thing.” “Even when she suddenly stopped showing up at the company, no one told us what happened.”
In the end, all they could do was accept the reality.
Aurora had just reappeared without warning.
Still, curiosity lingered.
Where had she been for the past month?
The company had gone through quite a bit during that time.
Even when things got really tough, Aurora never showed up..
And Grace’s health hadn’t been great either.
She had stepped in.
But Aurora? Not a single word, not even a glimpse.
Some began to quietly wonder–had she fallen ill with something rare or serious?
But without any clear explanation, no one dared to jump to conclusions.
So, everyone simply carried on with their work as usual.
Still, things hadn’t felt the same without her.
When Aurora was around, the entire team moved with direction, with purpose.
Without her, it felt like the company had lost its soul.
But now, after the shock wore off, what remained was excitement and joy.
“So does that mean… we’ll be more motivated at work from now on?”
