"So, that's how it is. Make sure not to make such mistakes again next time," Gale teased.

"I got it, Gale!"

"Good thing I was the only one who saw it. If it were someone else, like Summer or Joe, those gossip mongers with big mouths, how would you explain then?"

Sighing, Gale remarked, "They've been away for over a month. Time flies. Haven't seen them for so long, kind of miss them."

Peach looked at her. "Didn't you know that Joe and Summer are coming back tonight?"

"Tonight?!"

"Yes."

Gale had no clue. Summer did not tell her, and neither did Shawn.

"Am I the last to know?" Gale glanced at her colleagues. "Did you all know?"

Colleagues nodded in unison.

What the heck! They did not tell her.

Just as she was thinking, her phone buzzed with a message.

Gale picked it up, and it happened to be a message from Summer.

[My precious beauty, I'll be landing at the airport at eight tonight. If you're not there, I'll be disappointed!]

Gale replied, [Why didn't you tell me earlier?]
