At that moment Sha bit her lower lip, her eyes starting to shimmer. Her throat tightened, and for a second, she looked like she might cry—but not from fear, not from pressure but From joy.
Then she turned slowly, her eyes settling on Raymond and Valentina.
Her voice was soft, shaky, but filled with sincerity. "Thank you… thank you both for believing in me."
She took a breath.
"I know you were behind this," she continued, her eyes still on them. "I know Mr.Raymond… Valentina… this couldn't have happened without you. You… you gave me this shot. And because of you… my dream will finally come true."
Valentina's smile was warm, proud. She didn't need to say a word. The look on her face—the glint of shared pride, the way her eyes softened—said it all. She was proud. Not just of Sha, but of Raymond too.
Then Sha looked back at Mr. Adrian.
Then, slowly but firmly, she picked up the pen.
And signed the contract.
