But if you suddenly becthe CEO of a major company and reached out to her, she'd act like she hit the jackpot!" Shane snorted. "I get it. I'll focus on my career when I go back. And when I've made it, I'll look for her and show her what she missed out on." Sasha quickly turned her gaze away, feeling a pang of unease.

"We can't stand out here talking all night. I've got swork stuff I need to go over with you. Why don't you cto my place for a bit?" she suggested.

However, Shane's mind was tangled with thoughts of Yvonne, and he couldn't focus on anything else. He hung his head low. "You brought it up, so you must have an idea, right?"

Sasha couldn't care less about his we at it, feelings. "While you're at it, thinkm about what I said. When you've got a solid plan to grow, cback to me, and we'll figure it out." "Alright."
As Shane walked out of Sasha's apartment, he felt a slight lift in his mood. He looked up at the moon hanging in the night sky.
He hadn't really spent much twith Yvonne, at least not until lately. Yet somehow, he'd found himself falling for her, though he couldn't quite figure out why.
