The imposing edifice of Blackwood Corp loomed before Evelyn, a sleek monument of steel and glass that seemed to pierce the very sky. Its grandeur was both intimidating and a stark reminder of the power Hunter wielded, a power she was now reluctantly seeking to tap into. She adjusted the crisp lapels of her elegant navy suit, the tailored fabric a shield against the unease churning in her stomach. Her posture was ramrod straight, her chin held high, her carefully composed exterior a mask for the turbulent emotions beneath.

The proposal folder clutched in her hand was more than just a collection of meticulously researched data and persuasive projections; it was a tangible representation of her pride, her companyโ€™s precarious future resting within its sleek covers.

The hushed reverence of the grand, glass-paneled lobby of Blackwood Corp felt almost suffocating.

The cool, minimalist design, the silent efficiency of the staff, all contributed to an atmosphere of controlled power. Evelynโ€™s

    โ€œForget him,โ€ Vinni said with a decisive wave of her hand, her arms crossed firmly over her chest as she leaned against the edge of Evelynโ€™s imposing mahogany desk. Her gaze was direct, her loyalty unwavering. โ€œAvoid that manipulative bastard for a while. He wants to rattle you, Evelyn, to see if he still has the power to provoke a reaction. And you walking in there today, composed and presenting a powerful business proposition, scared the living hell out of him. Thatโ€™s why heโ€™s resorting to acting like a petulant, jealous child.โ€Evelyn let out a dry, humorless laugh, the sound devoid of any real amusement. She sank into the plush leather of her executive chair with a weary sigh, the adrenaline from her confrontation with Hunter slowly draining away, leaving behind a residue of frustration and simmering anger. โ€œHe didnโ€™t even try to be subtle about it, did he? The sheer audacity. I should have known heโ€™d pull some underhanded stunt like that. Itโ€™s classic Hunter.โ€โ€œWell, now you know

    Three days had bled into the past since the searing image of Hunter and Sophia, bathed in the warm glow of the afternoon sun, had burned itself into Evelynโ€™s memory. Three days of forced composure, of burying the unwelcome pang of hurt and a surprising stab of something akin to jealousy beneath a veneer of professional detachment. Three days of silence from him โ€“ no apologetic calls, no casual texts, nothing to acknowledge the barbed condition he had laid down for a potential partnership. And honestly, a part of her was relieved. Or at least, thatโ€™s the narrative she diligently constructed for herself, a fragile shield against the unwelcome intrusion of her lingering feelings.The usual weekday rhythm of StarLinkโ€™s headquarters pulsed around her that morning, the familiar symphony of hurried footsteps echoing against the polished marble floors, the low hum of overlapping conversations weaving through the open-plan offices. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted from the communal ki

    Evelynโ€™s heart sank, a cold, unwelcome weight settling in the pit of her stomach. โ€œYouโ€™re kidding me,โ€ she muttered under her breath, a wave of weary resignation washing over her. Of all the days, of all the moments for him to reappear.โ€œNope. Walked in here like he owned the damn place and has practically set up camp in your office. He even turned down Beatriceโ€™s offer of a double espresso, which, knowing Hunter, means heโ€™s not here for a polite social call. This is drama, Evelyn. Pure, unadulterated Blackwood-style drama.โ€ Vinniโ€™s voice was a low, urgent warning.Evelyn muttered a more potent curse under her breath, her fingers instinctively adjusting the sharp lines of her blazer, a familiar armor she donned before facing any significant confrontation. โ€œFine,โ€ she said, her voice tight with forced calm. โ€œLetโ€™s just get this over with. Rip off the band-aid and send him back to his ivory tower.โ€She pushed open the door to her office, her hand firm on the cool metal handle, ready to

    Three days of her meticulously constructing a narrative of indifference, a fragile wall against the unwelcome pang of hurt and the surprising sting of jealousy that still dared to surface. She had almost begun to believe her own carefully crafted facade, clinging to the hope that his abrupt departure from her office would translate into a prolonged absence.That fragile hope shattered that afternoon with the arrival of a terse, demanding message on her private, unlisted number โ€“ the one only a handful of people, including Hunter, possessed.Hunter: Dinner. Hotel LaVelle. 8 PM. Donโ€™t be late.Evelyn scoffed, her fingers tightening around her phone, her eyes blazing with a mixture of indignation and a reluctant flicker of intrigue. No polite preamble. No inquiry about her availability. Just a blunt command, thinly veiled as an invitation, delivered with the casual arrogance she had come to both despise and, inexplicably, expect. Her initial instinct was a resounding refusal. She had no

    Few days later - The sterile finality of the signed contracts hung in the air, a tangible representation of Evelynโ€™s pragmatic decision to intertwine StarLinkโ€™s fate with that of her ex-husbandโ€™s formidable empire. The alliance, born of necessity and a sliver of grudging respect for Hunterโ€™s business acumen, felt like a precarious truce, a delicate balance teetering on the precipice of their volatile shared history. The memory of his raw possessiveness in the hotel hallway, the unsettling glint of protectiveness in his eyes amidst the violent outburst, lingered in Evelynโ€™s thoughts, a confusing undercurrent beneath the carefully constructed surface of their professional interactions.It was with a sense of inevitability, a weary resignation mixed with a sliver of reluctant curiosity, that Evelyn received Hunterโ€™s subsequent message.

He had watched her departure, a study in elegant defiance โ€“ head held high, her stride sharp and purposeful, each click of her heels against the polished floor a decisive punctuation mark on their severed connection. It was as if the years they had shared, the intricate tapestry of their intertwined lives, had been relegated to the realm of a forgotten nightmare, one from which she had finally awakened and was determined to erase from her memory entirely.A dull ache, a physical manifestation of the emotional turmoil churning within him, constricted Hunterโ€™s chest.For once, Hunter Blackwood, the man renowned for his glacial compos

    Evelyn pushed open the door to Vinniโ€™s apartment with a sigh that seemed to carry the weight of the dayโ€™s strained interactions, the subtle click of her heels against the worn wooden floors a familiar punctuation mark to her weary arrival. The comforting blend of Vinniโ€™s signature vanilla and soft lavender scent usually offered a small measure of solace, a gentle hug after a long day, but tonight, even that familiar aroma couldnโ€™t penetrate the heavy weight pressing against her chest, a dull ache that mirrored the hollowness within.She still hadnโ€™t taken the plunge, hadnโ€™t severed the last tangible tie to her old life by finding her own place. Part of her knew she should. Financially, she was more than capable now, StarLinkโ€™s recent surge of cautious optimism offering a fragile sense of stability. But the prospect of returning to an empty apartment, the suffocating silence of living alone with only her thoughts for company, felt unbearable. Here, amidst Vinniโ€™s cheerful chaos, the

The silent question echoed in the quiet room. Why now, after everything he had put her through? Did he genuinely believe that a few softly spoken words, delivered via text message in the dead of night, could somehow erase the years of loneliness she had endured during their marriage, the profound betrayal that had shattered her trust, the agonizing sting of his indifference?She pressed her lips into a hard, thin line, a resolute act of self-preservation.

    The grand ballroom of the cityโ€™s most prestigious hotel pulsed with a vibrant energy, a symphony of clinking champagne flutes, hushed conversations punctuated by bursts of elegant laughter, and the smooth melodies of a live jazz band. Crystal chandeliers cast a warm, shimmering glow across the impeccably dressed guests, a glittering tableau of the cityโ€™s elite gathered for the annual charity gala.Evelyn moved through the throng with an effortless grace, a radiant figure who seemed to exist on a different plane of existence than the mere mortals surrounding her. The strapless emerald gown, a masterpiece of understated design, clung to her curves like liquid moonlight, accentuating her every movement. Her dark hair, a cascade of soft, luxurious waves, framed a face of exquisite beauty, her makeup a subtle enhancement that suggested she was the most captivating presence in the room without any conscious effort. Every gaze seemed magnetically drawn to her, a silent acknowledgment of her

    Her eyes were glacial, icy pools reflecting none of the warmth they had once held for him, a stark contrast to the fiery passion that had once burned so brightly between them.โ€œYou really need to stop doing this, Hunter,โ€ she said sharply, her voice clipped and devoid of any emotion.โ€œDoing what, Evelyn?โ€ His gaze searched hers, a desperate plea for understanding in his eyes.โ€œInvading my personal space, walking into my life whenever you please, disrupting my workday, acting as if you still have the right to ask for things from me,โ€ she said, her voice rising slightly with each word, the carefully suppressed anger threatening to erupt.Hunterโ€™s jaw tensed, the muscles along his temples flexing. โ€œI didnโ€™t come here to start another fight, Evelyn. I came to apologize. Again.โ€โ€œAnd Iโ€™ve already told you, repeatedly, that I donโ€™t want your hollow apologies,โ€ she snapped, taking a step closer, her eyes blazing with a contained fury. โ€œYou donโ€™t get to treat me like garbage for years, believ

    The next morning, a fragile semblance of routine settled over Vinniโ€™s apartment, but the air remained thick with unspoken emotions. Evelyn sat at the familiar dining table, the chipped ceramic mug warm in her hands, the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee doing little to dispel the lingering shadows beneath her eyes. Her composure was a carefully constructed edifice โ€“ the sharp lines of her tailored pants, the pristine simplicity of her white silk blouse, the severe elegance of her sleek bun โ€“ a visual declaration of control. Yet, beneath the polished surface, a profound weariness lingered, a dull ache that no amount of caffeine could alleviate.Vinni, ever attuned to the subtle shifts in Evelynโ€™s demeanor, watched her friend with a quiet concern, her own breakfast croissant momentarily forgotten. โ€œYou were up most of the night again, werenโ€™t you, Ev?โ€ she asked gently, her voice a soft murmur in the quiet morning.Evelyn offered a dismissive shrug, her gaze fixed on the swirling p
