Unlike the others who were happily exiting the company premises the moment it was closing hour, Lucy felt like a kid who had been separated from her favorite toy. She didn't like that she was leaving the building without any document to work on at home. How was she supposed to pass her spare time? Maybe she needed to find a bookstore and get herself some books to read, and maybe she could also stop by a grocery store and stock her refrigerator, Lucy thought as she stepped out of the building and looked around the parking lot for her official car and driver.
