In the evening, Sienna Thornton mentioned to Simon Forrester what Director-General Linton said today. Simon Forrester laughed and said, "If you maintain the same work ethic and achievements as last year, you'll probably be promoted to Director-General before you turn forty and become a deputy minister candidate before fifty."
His words made Sienna feel even more passionate, and she firmly said, "This year, I must be more dedicated to my work than last year and strive to ace the case by the end of November, adding another perfect touch to my resume!"
Simon Forrester was genuinely happy for her. Today's news finally washed away the sense of vague melancholy that had been lingering since they found out about Ian Grant's cancer diagnosis.
He hugged her and said, "Now that we're married and settled, we can wait until next year to have children. This year, you can focus all your energy on the case."
