Gerald was startled. He turned abruptly, his expression alarmed as he looked at Imogen. Imogen felt uneasy under his scrutiny. She wondered what Skylar had said to Gerald to cause such a strange reaction. Just moments ago, Gerald had worn a grim expression and a visibly annoyed attitude. However, upon hearing Skylar’s words, he swiftly switched to a smiling face. His round, big face lit up with a broad smile, a sharp contrast to his earlier demeanor.Gerald approached Imogen in a gentle and humble manner, speaking in a friendly tone, “You’re Imogen, right?”Imogen hurriedly nodded in response. “Yes, Mr. Levingston.”Gerald smiled warmly and said politely, “Please, call me Gerald. Everyone does.””Of course, Gerald,” Imogen responded respectfully.Apart from his skills, Gerald earned the role of R&D director for his sharp insights. He guided Imogen to her workstation, set up a new computer for her, provided fresh office materials, and warmly introduced her to everyone.Where he had previously shown disdain toward her, now he was exceedingly humble and polite, even encouraging other employees to look after her well.Skylar observed from the sidelines, smiling with satisfaction.Later, Imogen followed Skylar out of R&D. After exiting the building, Skylar politely said, “Let’s call it a day. Get some rest and be here on time tomorrow morning.” “Thank you, Skylar,” Imogen replied courteously.Skylar smiled thoughtfully, commenting, “It’s intriguing how two people sharing a name can chart such distinct paths. Not long ago, there was a young woman named Imogen Kingsley, a graduate of Aerospace Academy.”She had all the qualifications but didn’t quite catch your break. She ended up starting in our PR department as a junior clerk.”Imogen’s heart skipped a beat. Anxiously, she asked, “Skylar, did you say there’s another Imogen Kingsley in the PR department?”Skylar nodded. “Yes, is everything alright?””Did she graduate from Aerospace Academy?””Yeah, she did. She’s tall and slender. Are you familiar with her?”Imogen offered a wry smile. After a brief pause, she shook her head and responded, “No, I’m not. I just find it interesting to share the same first and last name.””That’s true, but she works in PR. The chances of your paths crossing are pretty slim,” Skylar said.Imogen felt the same way. StarEnterprise spanned three expansive buildings, each teeming withthousands of employees. Thesteady stream of people meanenetrandom meetings were uncommon even within the same company. After saying goodbye to Skylar, Imogen lingered outside Building One of Star Enterprise.As the workday drew to a close, employees began to trickle out ofthe office, reminiscent of students streaming out of school afterfinal bell. Clusters of Thetexited in groups, forming aойcontinuous flow from the building.
After a long wait, Imogen finally spotted a familiar figure. Hastening over, she called out, “Zoey.”Zoey heard her name and turned toward the voice. As she caught sight of Imogen approaching, her face paled with shock.After a brief moment of surprise, she swiftly collected herself. Without acknowledging Imogen’s call, Zoey averted her gaze and briskly walked away.Imogen hurried over and intercepted Zoey, speaking casually, “Actually, I should’ve addressed you as Imogen. Hold on for a moment. There’s something I need to talk to you.”Zoey’s expression darkened noticeably. In a tense whisper, she demanded, “How did you find me here?
