The air was heavy with tension, and the only sound that echoed through the hallway was the soft shuffle of their footsteps on the ornate carpet. As they reached the end of the corridor, Mr. Anderson paused and turned to face Marianne. "You're not good for my son, Marianne. How much?" her eyes widened when she heard that coming from him. "What do you mean, Mr. Anderson?" "How much do you need to stay away from him?" Marianne's gaze hardened, and she squared her shoulders, refusing to be intimidated. "I can't believe you're asking me to walk away from someone I love. Money can't buy happiness, Mr. Anderson." Mr. Anderson's expression remained stoic, but his eyes betrayed a hint of desperation.

"W-why are you doing this, Marianne?" he asked confused. She slowly turned to face him, "What? I am just making some breakfast for you. Why? Don't you like it?" she answered him with a question. "I mean... why are you trying everything first? By any chance... did Nate told you about-" She sighed and nodded her head, "Yes. He told me about your issues on the food. So, I am doing this for you. For you to try something nice, for you to have a nice and proper meal at once," she admitted. Felix stared at Marianne, a mix of surprise and gratitude in his eyes.

As Marianne continued to grapple with her conflicted emotions, the days passed in a haze of awkwardness and tension. Each interaction with Felix was clouded by the memory of that stolen kiss, a kiss that seemed to have unraveled the carefully constructed walls she had built around her heart. "What's wrong with me? I shouldn't be thinking about him! I shouldn't be thinking about that kiss! What we have aren't real after all. You shouldn't be falling in love with a man like him, Marianne," Marianne scolded herself inside her room as she was looking at the mirror, fixing herself before she went out. Despite her internal struggles, Marianne couldn't escape the growing awareness that her feelings were slipping beyond the bounds of their contractual arrangement.

The chilly night air wrapped around her, and the distant city lights created a gentle glow. Ethel's steps echoed against the pavement as she replayed the night's encounters in her mind. She couldn't deny that Nate's actions had sparked a curiosity in her, a curiosity that went beyond their initial encounter.

"Felix?" "Yes, Father?" "Next week, you will be having your formal announcement for getting married with you wife, and... there are reporters, make sure not to get into trouble," his father uttered. "I know, father." In the dimly lit study of the Anderson residence, Eric leaned back in his leather chair, a sly grin playing on his lips as he and Charlotte hatched their sinister plan. The room was filled with the scent of aged mahogany and the soft glow of antique lamps, casting an eerie ambiance over the scene. "So, Charlotte," Eric said, his voice low and conspiratorial, "we need to play this smart. We can't leave any room for mistakes. Once Marianne is out of the picture, Felix will come running back to me for support, and that business will be mine again." Charlotte, dressed impeccably in a sharp suit that mirrored Eric's ruthless demeanor, nodded in agreement. "Absolutely, Eric. We have to be strategic and discreet. We can't afford any slip-ups.
