My Sugar And Your Spice

Amelie was busy with work for the next few days.

Thankfully, Steven was back from his trip, relieving much of her burden.

She was busy with both Knowlit and her streams.

Know it was booming, and there was a lot of interest from research groups.

She had no choice but to hire a few professionals for quality control.

With more quality content being produced, the platform's business was soaring. Investors were all interested in it and tried to convince her to go public.

Not wanting to expand too fast, she rejected all of their suggestions.

Meanwhile, she made a few tweaks to the site to improve the user interface and increase the variety of content available.

In the blink of an eye, two weeks passed.

After all that work was over, she generously gave herself two days off from work.

She was thinking about how to make use of her vacation time.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed with a message.

'Come to the Walsh Building.'

It was an unknown number.

She stared at it for ages, but she could not think of just who could have sent her that message.

However, she was familiar with the Walsh Building.

That was where Toby's company, Walsh Residence, was located.

Did that mean Toby sent her the message?

She called Toby, wanting to confirm her guess.

He did not answer the phone.

Worried that it was urgent, she did not spend too much time pondering. She informed Steven before swiftly jumping into her car and driving over to the Walsh Building.

It was an hour's drive from Halport to Clouson City.

However, she had cut it down to thirty minutes.

As soon as she arrived at the building, she swung the car around in a beautiful arc to slide her car into a narrow parking lot.
