Betty perked up from her desk when she heard the sound. Her brows drew together in confusion, unsure who would be knocking on her door.

The thought that the maids had come to harass her again made her heart thud against her chest. Betty gulped nervously as she reached for the knob. Taking a deep breath, she slowly opened the door and peeked through the small gap.

To her surprise, Ashley stood outside.
Ashley smiled brightly, holding a bottle of wine along with a few snacks she must've grabbed from the pantry. Deep lines formed on Betty's face as she studied that carefree smile.
"Bet, let's drink!" Ashley beamed. "The weather's nice tonight, and after all that work, a sip of alcohol is exactly what we need to wash the tiredness away!"

Betty's brows slowly lifted in surprise as she stared at her.
