This time, it was her turn to be stunned. "Men are like that. They might be fickle before marriage, but maybe they'll change after getting married."

I stopped my work and sighed lightly, "I don't think marriage can restrain a man who's prone to wavering. Otherwise, why would so many people cheat?"

I felt it was better to cut my losses in time than to end up in a messy marriage.

Moreover, I wasn't dependent on him.

"That makes sense. So you're aiming for a promotion. I heard our department manager is being transferred to a branch, and with your qualifications, becoming the manager is definitely within reach."

Her words ignited my enthusiasm.

I was indeed aiming for a promotion.

I had already missed an opportunity once because I was too absorbed in the love Frank offered, but this time, I had to seize it.

After chatting with her for a few moments, my attention quickly returned to my work.

However, I got so caught up that I lost track of time.

By the time I realized it, the sky outside was already dark, and I was the only one left in the vast office.

I slowly stood up, stretching my stiff body.

After feeling sufficiently relaxed, I tidied up my desk and left.
