Chapter 251: Just Breathe
"What’s going on, Rain?" Sanya asked, pouring steaming tea into two cups on the balcony. She’d just lit the portable tabletop fire pit to keep the chill at bay.
They both took a moment to appreciate the cityscape from this side of the twin buildings, which mirrored Alexander’s penthouse on the other side.
Rain took a deep breath, accepting the warm tea. "I missed this chamomile tea. You always add something special," she said, smiling. It had a calming taste she loved, one that always helped her sleep well.
Sanya’s face lit up with a grin. "Well, once you move into Alexander’s penthouse, I’ll be making this for you every night!" She gave Rain a mischievous look, enjoying her friend’s surprise.
Rain chuckled as Sanya’s eyes sparkled. "Spill it out!" she teased, sensing Sanya had more to share.
"Okay, okay. I’m officially William’s chef now, so I’ll be staying here in his penthouse to cook for him and he’s paying me well! I’ll get to experiment and build my skills before opening my own restaurant." Sanya’s excitement was contagious.
Rain raised an eyebrow. "That’s all?" she asked, and Sanya chuckled, blushing. "Of course! What else would there be?"
Rain gave her a look. "You and him, under the same roof..."
Sanya shrugged, still smiling. "It’s a good way to get to know each other, and don’t worry, we’re staying in separate rooms. I may seem a little liberated, but deep down, I’m actually quite conservative."
