Please, wake up soon..." The room went silent for a while, and then there was this quiet click at the door.

Caught off guard, Lindsey looked up at him, saying, "Why do you ask? Do you need her for any personal matters?" Leonel shook his head.
"I'm about to launch this new medication for obesity I've developed, and I'm thinking of asking her to endorse it.
Lindsey was confused.
