Despite the evening's series of surprises, Linsey had always maintained her composure.' Now, why was she so visibly shaken? "Linsey, everything alright?" she asked with concern.

Linsey quickly continued, "We must convince him to reconsider! You can't just call off a two billion deal overnight!" Millie chuckled, finding Linsey's naivety endearing.
