Winnie had a sharp eye; the gowns she picked suited Khloe perfectly. To show her gratitude, Khloe treated Winnie to dinner. Nick, not wanting to intrude, had arranged for a driver to take them to the restaurant.

During the meal, Khloe noticed Winnie’s phone occasionally buzzing with messages. Still, Winnie was fully engaged in conversation and didn’t glance at it.

Suddenly, Winnie’s phone rang. She picked it up, briefly glanced at the screen, and then looked at Khloe with a hesitant expression.

“It’s Michael, right? You should answer.”

“Alright.”

With Khloe’s permission, Winnie accepted the call.

“I’m having dinner with Khloe… hmm… I’ll call you back in a bit,” she said softly.

“Okay.”

A faint blush crept across Winnie’s cheeks. After hanging up, she peeked at the messages on her phone and a small, shy smile tugged at her lips.

Khloe stirred the dessert on her plate with her spoon, teasing, “This is the first time I’ve seen—”

“The first time you’ve seen what?” Winnie looked confused.

“I mean… this is the first time I’ve seen someone still so sweet even after a divorce.” Khloe smiled gently at her.

Winnie’s face turned red in an instant.

“Don’t laugh at me, Khloe. I… I can’t help it,” Winnie murmured with a sigh.

Khloe tilted her head, studying her friend. “Your divorce cooling-off period is almost up. What are you planning? Are you really going through with it?”

Winnie lowered her gaze. “I haven’t decided yet.” 1

Khloe snorted softly, dabbing her lips with a napkin. “I think it’s not that you haven’t decided… You don’t want to decide.”

She knew Michael too well. After finally going all in and winning the woman he wanted, there was no way he would let go easily. The divorce cooling-off period was just a convenient excuse for him to delay the inevitable. He would see how things unfolded before committing. That was the Morrison family’s way-buying time, a classic tactic.

“Alright, let’s not talk about stressful stuff. You have your assessment soon. How’s your preparation?”

At that mention, Winnie’s frown melted. She leaned toward Khloe, a smile curving her lips. “I’ve improved a lot lately.”

“I think… you’ll be fine,” Khloe replied confidently.

In recent weeks, influenced by both Khloe and Michael, Winnie had thrown herself into her work. Even if she wasn’t the smartest, she certainly wasn’t the worst. What had always held her back wasn’t ability; it was confidence. A deficit she had carried since childhood.

Now, she was lucky. Surrounded by people who believed in her, she refused to let them down.

Her mother had left behind a wealth of data, materials, and personal notes in the cloud. Winnie had resented her mother, so she had never bothered to read them. But she no longer trapped herself in the past. Her mother had been brilliant; the materials were invaluable, the kind of knowledge no textbook could provide.
