Chapter 44

***Three weeks later***

"Hey, why are you crying?" Daniel asked Adrienne, concern in his voice.

"It's so emotional," she sobbed, tears streaming down her face.

Daniel sighed, reaching out to pull her into a comforting hug. "And you are so dramatic," he said with a small smile, trying to lighten the mood.

"I can't believe you are leaving me for your girlfriend," Adrienne continued to sob, her voice filled with heartache.

Daniel's brow furrowed with confusion. "Hey, stop it," he said firmly, his tone showing hints of frustration.

Adrienne's tears continued to fall. "But I understand. You have to live your own life," she managed to say through her sobs.

"Adri, first of all, this was what you wanted," Daniel said gently, trying to reason with her. "Secondly, I am only quitting being your assistant, not quitting being your best friend and companion."

"But you are still leaving me," Adrienne's voice wavered.
