I looked at the bottom right corner of my computer screen...

4:30pm...

After I have my meal, I should head home. I'll continue my work there.

I closed my laptop and placed it into my bag. Minutes later, the waitress returned with my meal. She set the plate of food, glass cup, and wrapped up utensils down carefully onto the table in front of me.

"Do you need anything else?"

"No, thank you." She nodded, then turned her attention to incoming customers. I grabbed the utensils and began eating my meal.

...

After I finished, I cleaned up my area, paid the tab, left a reasonable tip, grabbed my stuff and left the diner. I noticed it was lightly raining, so I put on my hood, tucked my hands into my pockets and walked to my car.

When I got into my vehicle, I placed my bag in the passenger seat beside me, removed my hood, turned it on, and pulled out of the parking spot, getting on to the main road.

At a stoplight, I saw something from the corner of my eye. I looked to my left and noticed a woman in the passenger seat in the car next to me, waving her arm out the window to get my attention.

"HEEEYY!!! LOWER YOUR WINDOW!"

It looks like the drizzle stopped. I put my window down and looked at her.

"Hey! How did you get that nice car? How rich are you?"

Isn't she nice. I noticed 2 men in the back seat, looking at her in astonishment. The woman in the driver's seat looked uninterested in her friend's comments.

I didn't answer. I faced forward and put my window up, focusing on the road. Once the stoplight changed, I stepped on the gas, speeding up slightly, continuing home.

"Why would you ask that?!" Jean scolded Sasha.

"She has a nice car! I wanted to know!" she whined.

"Hey, didn't she seem familiar to any of you?" asked Connie. They looked at each other, unsure.

Mikasa, who was driving, had no clue what was going on since she was focused on driving.

...

Once I got to my building, I parked in my reserved space, grabbed my bag, got out of my car, and walked inside.

"Welcome back Ms. L/N."

I glanced at the custodian who greeted me. I gently smiled at them, then went up to the elevators. I pushed the button on the wall and when the doors opened, I entered. After I pressed the button that takes me to my floor, I leaned against the railing, watching the numbers change with each floor I went up.

By the time I got to my floor, the elevator doors opened and I stepped out. I went up to my door, input the code on the keypad, and unlocked it. I opened my door and entered my penthouse apartment, taking off my shoes at the entrance and putting on my slippers.

After I closed and locked the door, I went directly into my office. I placed my bag on my desk and took out my laptop, immediately getting to work. My inbox is flooded with e-mails from my team as well as potential business partners. I didn't notice these emails while I was at the diner...but what did I expect...I'm one of the most successful CEOs in the world.

Y/N worked for several hours. Her laptop was running out of power, so she switched to her office computer and continued.

1:45am...
