As Annie leaned in to whisper, a subtle edge crept into her tone. "Do not be misled by Andrew's attractive appearance," she remarked, her hazel eyes glinting with contained fury. "That man is cruel, Rose." "I truly mean it."

Rose blinked, her eyes wandering around the room to the man in question. Andrew was positioned against the distant wall of the conference room, surrounded by large glass windows that allowed the warm afternoon light to stream in. He was chuckling at something a board member remarked. Nothing about him indicated any threat. In truth, he appeared to be a completely charming, gentle, and respectable young man.

Rose started, her voice soft and tentative, "He doesn't look like you..."

Annie arched an eyebrow sharply, interrupting Rose. "That's precisely the point." He looks like a saint to everyone. However, I've noticed the chill in his gaze. "There is nothing new, only malice and a complete lack of compassion."

Her words landed like frost on Rose's skin, piercing

    No words came from Cecilia; her gaze drifted downward, heavy with thought. Then fluttered to the stairwell behind him.The air pulsed with wordless weight.Finally, a breath escaped Cecilia's lips, her gaze unmoved from the floor."No," she whispered, the words barely a breath. "There's nothing left in me for Andrew."Ethan remained still. His face stayed inscrutable. Cecilia turned away and then came to a stop, her hand found the worn edge of a wooden table by the wall.Her voice returned, soft yet distinct. "My frustration didn't stem from lingering feelings for Andrew." She turned back to look at Ethan once more. "It was Annie," she replied curtly. "Annie didn't inform me about her affair with Andrew, even though we slept under the same roof."Ethan crossed his arms, observing her. "So you're angry that she didn't tell you?" "Exactly my point!" Cecilia raised her hands in exasperation. "Annie is meant to be my closest friend." She was aware that I had a past with Andrew. She w

    "Annie," Andrew spoke, his tone gentle yet firm. They were positioned near the railing outside the eatery, with the lights of Northbrook shining in the backdrop. "Will you officially be my girlfriend?" Annie gazed into Andrew's eyes, looking for any sign of doubt, but found none. She smiled, gradually. "Certainly, Andrew. I will." Andrew's grin spread across his face. But before his arms could wrap around her in joy, Annie pressed her hand to his chest, stopping him before words could slip free and change everything."Rest a while," she continued her words like silk. "Only when I've spoken to Cecilia about us will it be official."Andrew's smile faded slightly. "Cecilia?" She signaled agreement with a nod. "She is my closest friend, Andrew." And... she was your ex-wife." Andrew looked away for a moment, then turned back to her. "Annie, you're not obligated to Cecilia." "I do owe her that much," she said, not unkindly interrupting. "Not because she was your ex-wife, but because s

    Sadie stood on the terrace, gazing over the expansive grounds of Blackwood estate. The wind softly ruffled her silver hair, yet her heart was a storm of reminiscences. "You no longer need to bear this," Ethan said, his tone calm next to her. Sadie faced him, her eyes filled with tears. "You know, for many years, I promised I'd never come back here." I despised this place. "Because of the effect it had on me." She stopped, allowing the words to rest in the silence. "However, seeing you and Andrew at peace with one another like siblings gives me joy." Ethan nodded with gravity. "We have erred." Our ancestors behaved more poorly. "However, we are not like them." Andrew emerged from behind them. He moved forward gradually, pausing just before reaching where Sadie and Ethan were standing. Sadie looked into his eyes. "I wasn't nice to you," Andrew confessed. "None of us were." And I can't take it back. However, I assure you that no matter what occurs from this point on, your name wil

    Two days later, Cecilia showed up at her office early, attempting to immerse herself in work. However, an interruption arrived with a knock on her glass office door. It was Miriam, her aide. "Andrew is here," she stated gently. Cecilia's pen halted in the middle of a sentence. "Why?" "He mentioned he wanted to stop in to clear up some details from yesterday's briefing." Cecilia gulped nervously. "Have him come in." Andrew entered with his hands in his pockets, glancing around her office before focusing on her. "I didn't intend to surprise you," Andrew remarked. "What is it that you want, Andrew?" she inquired, remaining standing. "To talk about us. I promise you that I can't take more than fifteen minutes." He said while maintaining eye contact with Cecilia. Andrew and Cecilia slipped onto the rooftop, where the breeze wrapped around them. Andrew watched her approach, the corners of his eyes softening with each step she took."You need to put an end to this," Cecilia stated.

    Ethan's fingers clenched the wheel with quiet resolve as Oakland's skyline faded into memory. His thoughts returned to the wreckage: the truth his mother could no longer hide, the loss of Nicholas Blackwood, and the storm of questions about who he truly was. The weight of it all pressed down on him."Are you sure that you're fine with this?" Cecilia softly inquired from the passenger seat, lightly stroking his hand.Ethan gave her a slight smile. "For the time being, Andrew can hold the title." "I don't need it to understand my identity."In Northbrook, Ethan welcomed Cecilia more openly into his life. Their nights were packed with joy, they ate together, and they dreamed about what lies ahead. Cecilia had entered his life as if she had always been meant to be there. She divided her time between Nexford Agency and being with Ethan, establishing a flow that suited them both.In Oakland, Andrew walked back and forth in the office of Blackwood Enterprises. His image in the mirror depict

    Sadie nodded, the recollection zipping through her like a bolt. "I was merely a chef at that time," she remarked, her tone faraway, journeying into the past. "A common woman with no identity and no strength." I was employed by the Blackwoods. Lucas Blackwood, the Elder Alpha of the Blackwood lineage, employed me to work at their residence. "That's where I encountered Nicholas." Monica moved back while Sadie settled into a chair. Her fingers curled around the border of her shawl. "I didn't expect anything," Sadie went on. "Nicholas was the successor." A powerful Alpha, the upcoming successor. He wasn't meant to notice someone like me at all, but..." Sadie's lips formed a sorrowful smile. "He did it." "We always talk late at night, after I must have finished my duties in the kitchen," she said quietly. "He would slip in after work." He always paid attention to me as if I were important. ""Then it became something different," Sadie stated her voice just above a whisper. "An object
