Allen sat behind his desk, his expression unreadable. Daphne stood before him, a hint of apprehension in her voice. "Am I in trouble, sir?" she asked. Allen didn't respond. Instead, he turned his computer screen towards Daphne, gesturing for her to take a seat. His silence spoke volumes, and Daphne's unease grew as she lowered herself into the chair. Daphne sat in front of Allen's desk, her eyes scanning the cake designs on the screen. Allen stood up from his seat, his movements fluid and confident. He walked around the desk and stood behind Daphne, leaning forward slightly. "Let's take a closer look," he said, his voice low and professional. His proximity to Daphne was subtle, yet unmistakable. He was her boss, and he was asserting his authority in a gentle, yet firm manner. As they leaned in together, their heads bent over the screen, Daphne felt a flutter in her chest. She tried to focus on the cake designs, but she couldn't help being aware of Allen's presence behind her

"Rise and shine, everybody!" Nancy's voice boomed down the hallway, followed by the sound of curtains opening and morning light spilling into each room. Groans and grumbles echoed from the other rooms. When Nancy reached Daphne's room, she yanked open the curtains, letting sunlight flood in. "Come on, Daphne, get up! You're going to be late!" Daphne buried her face in the pillow, mumbling incoherently. Nancy burst into Fiona's room, chirping, "Rise and shine, young lady!" Fiona's voice was husky with sleep as she replied, "I was so sure it was you making all that noise and disturbing my sleep. I was so sure it was you and couldn't have been anybody else. Get out of my room Nancy" She dragged her duvet over her face, trying to block out the light and continue sleeping. Nancy chuckled and swiftly pulled the duvet off Fiona's body, darting out of the room. Fiona groggily got out of bed and chased after her, grumbling under her breath. Both of them thundered downstairs, prompting the o

The morning of the wedding day dawned bright and beautiful, with a warm sun shining down on the venue. Sophia woke up early, feeling a mix of excitement and nerves. She lay in bed for some time, taking a deep breath and savoring the moment. Today was the day she would marry the love of her life, Aiden. As she got out of bed, her friends and siblings were already bustling around, helping her get ready. They flitted about, steaming her dress, curling her hair, and adding the final touches to her makeup. Sophia's nerves began to dissipate as she was surrounded by the people she loved, all working together to make her feel like a Disney princess. Meanwhile, Aiden was preparing himself for the big day. He woke up early, feeling grateful for the love they shared and the journey that had brought them to this moment. He took a deep breath, thinking about the vows he would make to Sophia, and the promises he would make to love and cherish her for the rest of their lives. As the guests be

"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't mean to wake you," Daphne said, her voice soft and apologetic. Allen's eyes remained closed as he replied, "You didn't, Daphne. I just lay still, that's all." Daphne's concern was evident in her next question. "How are you feeling?" She placed her palm on his forehead again, as if seeking confirmation of his temperature. "You're burning hot," she said, her brow furrowed with worry. "I think you have a fever or something." She attempted to cover him up properly, her hands gentle as she tucked the blankets around him. "I'll ask someone to call the doctor." Allen's response was laced with a hint of stubbornness. "I'll be fine, Daphne. I just need rest, not a doctor." Daphne's expression turned firm. "Clearly, you're not fine, and until then, I'll ask someone to call a doctor." "Is there anything specific you'd like to eat?
