DreameNovelChapter 40 Olars The moment I got off the plane, I headed straight to the amusement park, dragging my luggage behind me. There wasn't even tto stop by my apartment.
Maya was waiting forat the entrance. The second she spotted me, she ran over and huggedtightly. "Ms. Hart, you're finally back," she said, her voice filled with relief.
I patted her shoulder reassuringly. "Let's not waste any time. Showthe problem areas first" I hadn't slept much the night before, tossing and turning as I tried to analyze the situation in my mind While I suspected the construction team or the lighting supplier might be at fault, the likelihood of them making a mistake this big seemed slim. This was a high-stakes project for them-any major error could cost them their reputation, or worse, their business.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter much consideration, I concluded that the issue might lie elsewhere. Still, as someone without a technical background, I couldn't pinpoint the exact problem without seeing it firsthand. So, I dove straight into the work.
I spent the entire evening inspecting the lights, turning them on and off, and comparing them to the original design renderings. I didn't stop until 2:00a.m.

According to Maya, Logan was already furious about the situation. Even if we resolved the issue, we'd likely still face penalties-a fact that weighed heavily on her.
Logan wasn't known for leniency, especially when it cto professional matters. He might not care much aboutpersonally anymore, but I knew his work ethic: fair, strict, and uncompromising. None of this surprised me.
"Even if we face penalties, we must do our best to fix it," I said firmly, I couldn't compromise on my principles, no matter the circumstances.
When we finally finished the report, it was nearly 6:00 a.m. Maya was so exhausted she fell asleep at her desk. My eyelids were heavy too, but to my surprise, I didn't feel sleepy.
