Chapter 12: CHAPTER-10 : NEW MISSION
Siri suddenly started feeling drowsy, and then it felt like she was in a closed room, surrounded by endless blackness. There was no escape, no end to this darkness—it seemed like a world where no light could penetrate. Just as she began to despair, believing that her world was consumed by darkness with no way to let in light, she heard someone calling her name desperately. The voice was worried and anxious, echoing through the void.
Harvey's POV:
I just hurried through my morning routine so I could meet my sweetheart as soon as possible. Hehe! On my way home, I don't know why, but I felt kind of anxious... so I quickened my pace. Midway, I met those women who mocked Siri, but I ignored them. When I arrived, I found Siri in a sleeping state. Just as my loving gaze fell on her, I noticed that she wasn't sleeping comfortably. Her brows were furrowed, and her facial expression was very tense. My inner voice reached out to me, saying that my heart couldn't bear to see her in this state. I came closer and called her name again and again; my voice was filled with my emotions. I didn't care about anything else—I just anxiously kept calling her name louder until she seemed to wake up... responding to her name.
Third Person POV:
Just as Siri opened her eyes, she saw him. 💕 Yes, you guessed it—it was none other than our dear Harvey, who was anxiously looking at her, worried she might be in pain or experiencing some discomfort.
"Dear, just calm down... take a deep breath, Harvey," said our female lead gently.
"What happened to you? Why were you panicking? Are you in pain or feeling any discomfort? Just tell me..." Harvey asked, his voice full of concern as he held her comfortably in his embrace.

Siri's thoughts:
Huh! Isn't this tailor-made for me? I'd be a complete fool if I didn't take this task. Stupid furball... Tuna! (That's the furball's name.)
Furball: "I can hear everything you're thinking, my cute and stupid host. Humph!"
Siri: "What... the...!!!! I need to block you right now! I know there's a function to block you from peeping at my thoughts. All I need to do is report you... tsk tsk!" (Though she didn't actually know where to report, she was just bluffing, inspired by her experience in novels. She made a wild bet, and to her surprise, it worked. Hehe.)
Furball: "My big sister, I promise I won't peek casually! If you want, you can block me for a limited time... but please, big sister, don't report me! If you do, I won't get my promotion... my whole life depends on you! Just don't waste any more time—accept this mission, but please be good if you want us to enjoy life together."
