Linda was living quite pleasantly up until the New Year Despite her heavy workload, she felt great.
Luke would visit her and chat with her when he was free. Knowing she wasn't interested in romantic matters, he never brought them up.
Linda felt he had good boundaries and was a great friend.
However, it seemed he didn't want to just be friends.
Even Samson noticed this.
"Linda, maybe you could give Luke a try?" Samson suggested.
Linda smiled as she looked at her documents. "If I wanted to date, I would've already been with him."
"Are you planning to stay single forever?"
Samson understood how heavy Linda's past relationship had been for her. It was normal for her to lose. trust in love.
"I'm not alone. I have Lexi and Chloe."
"But they can't be with you forever."
"Maybe I'm more suited to being alone?" Linda knew Samson meant well, but she didn't need his concern
"Samson, I'm doing well now. Please don't make me feel like you're a nuisance. I'd rather not discuss this further."
Seeing Linda's determination, Samson dropped the subject. She was a person with clear ideas and knew what she was doing.
"Alright." He then shifted the topic, saying, "I heard from Lina that you've signed some new talents."
"Yes. I'm planning to make a movie featuring all newcomers."
"That's a big risk," Samson said.
"How can you make money without risk?"
Wasn't every movie a gamble?
Linda had the capital to take risks and wasn't worried about losing everything.
Samson didn't want to dampen her spirits. "If you want to do it, go ahead. I'll support you,"
'I don't want just verbal support."
Samson laughed. "I'll invest money when the time comes. Is that support enough?"
Linda pretended to be serious. "It depends on how much you give."
"Don't push it."
"Samson, haven't all my projects been profitable so far?
Samson nodded.

"Exactly. That's an investment, and it's a guaranteed profit."
James returned with Lexi nearing the end of the year.
Linda and Samson went to pick them up together as parents.
In the VIP waiting room, a dainty girl was sitting on a young man's lap, looking anxiously at the door.
"James, when will Mom and Dad arrive?"
Lexi had a pitiful look on her face as if she might start crying at any moment.
"Don't worry. Your mom and dad will be here soon," James comforted the little Lexi in his arms, not wanting her to cry.
Her crying was so terrifying that he could hardly bear to remember it.
Just then, the door opened.
Linda and Samson arrived, looking weary from their journey.
Despite setting out early, traffic had been heavy, and they were stuck on the elevated highway.
Warmy, hold me!" Lexi's face lit up with joy upon seeing Linda.
Linda walked over and embraced her daughter. "Did you miss Mommy, my little Lexi?" Lexi nodded vigorously. "I missed you so much, Mommy."
