As Dolores stood in front of the door to Matthew’s office, she sucked in a deep breath and after a while, she finally mustered enough courage to knock on the door.

A faint reply came from inside the room, she then pushed the door open...

The decor in Matthew’s office was very modern and simplistic. The color scheme was minimalistic, bringing out his maturity and all-encompassing empathy. On one side was a French window that allowed a generous amount of sunlight to pour into the office. If one were to stand in front of the window they would be able to take in the view of the whole city.

Matthew was busy scanning documents. He didn’t even raise his head in response to his visitor.

Dolores stood in front of his desk and held the translated document out for him to see.

Matthew didn’t accept it, he simply said. “Put that on the table.”

Dolores placed the documents on his desk before attempting to broach the topic of bringing him along with her back home. However, she was struggling to say anything.

Should she just say, Mr. Nelson, can you come with me back to my home for a while? Dolores was sure that she would get rejected instantly if she tried that one.

Matthew probably thought the visitor was Helen as he asked, “What’s the matter?”

He flipped over the document while keeping his head low. His eyes never averted from the documents.

“Mr. Nelson, I want to ask you for a favor,” Dolores said, finally mustering enough courage.
