“No,” Jupiter cut him off immediately. “You should go home.”
Mike blinked in surprise, then nodded. “In that case, please drive safely, Mr. J.”
Jupiter gave a brief nod without looking back. Mike continued following him all the way to the private parking area reserved for him.

“Yes, Mr. J,” Valencia replied briefly. “There’s nothing to worry about as long as Mrs. Venus takes care of herself.”She picked up her bag. “I’ve left vitamins and medication. Make sure she takes them on schedule.”“I’m sorry for troubling you,” Venus said with a faint smile.“What are you saying?” Valencia clicked her tongue lightly in mild annoyance. “I’m one of the Shaw family doctors. You should contact me anytime there’s a health concern.”Venus let out a soft laugh. “Thank you again.”“I’ll take my leave now.”Jupiter nodded. “Thank you, Valen.”Before leaving, Valencia glanced at Venus once more. The look she gave her carried a quiet reminder, firm but wordless.“Don’t be too hard on your body,” she said softly.Venus answered with a small nod.On

“Where are you going?” Mike asked carefully when he saw Jupiter leaving his office in a hurry. “Do you need me to drive—”“No,” Jupiter cut him off immediately. “You should go home.”Mike blinked in surprise, then nodded. “In that case, please drive safely, Mr. J.”Jupiter gave a brief nod without looking back. Mike continued following him all the way to the private parking area reserved for him.“Oh, postpone the meeting with the board of commissioners until the day after tomorrow,” Jupiter added as he walked. “I have something to take care of with Granny tomorrow.”Mike slowed his steps. “But, sir—”“Did I hire someone who argues this much?”“No.” Mike shut his mouth instantly.Jupiter clicked his tongue softly and continued walking toward his car, leaving Mike to handle the rest. Once he slid in

Jupiter’s touch lingered long after he was gone, leaving Venus frozen in place.The warmth he had given her. The faint trace of his masculine cologne still clinging to the air. And her hand—without realizing it—tightened around the necklace he had given her.“I feel even more guilty now, J.” Tears slipped down her cheeks again. “I’m sorry.”Only after the car he was driving disappeared did Venus finally turn and walk into the house, her heart feeling heavier with every step.The door closed behind her, and silence swept in—slow but crushing.Her shoulders slumped. The faint smile she had been forcing all this time collapsed instantly.She took a few steps forward, but suddenly her body felt light, almost weightless. A sharp pulse throbbed at her temples. Her breathing shortened, as if the air around her had grown thin. The floor beneath her seemed to tilt, her vision blurring as the color

The girl blinked in disbelief. She even took a step back, as if she needed to create distance to keep her mind clear. Everything happening in this room felt unreal, like a dream. If Venus could somehow check whether she was hallucinating or not, she would have done it without hesitation.“Well?” Jupiter asked.“No,” Venus said firmly. The word came out steadily, without the slightest trace of doubt.Jupiter didn’t respond right away. He simply watched her, waiting—perhaps the refusal was nothing more than a passing surge of emotion. “You’re… serious?” he finally asked, because it seemed Venus had made her decision with complete certainty.“Yes. I refuse,” Venus repeated. “And this isn’t about who you are.”A faint crease formed between Jupiter’s brows. “Then what is it about?”“Because this doesn’t make sense,” Venus answered honestly. “We only met today. Even if you weren’t the CEO of Shaw Group—if you were just an ordinary man sitting in front of me right now—I would still say the s

“$3,400,” Venus answered quickly. “That’s years of work.”“What was the money allocated for?” Jupiter asked, then almost immediately regretted the question. It was deeply personal—surely too intrusive.But—“A minor surgery, regular medication, outpatient care, and routine checkups,” Venus replied without hesitation. The question felt strange, but she did her best to cooperate. “I work as a freelance admin and translator. My income isn’t stable. And I still have hospital bills from last month.”Jupiter nodded, storing the information away. His eyes returned to the data in his hands as Mike quickly traced Venus’s account activity and personal records.After a long moment of analysis, Jupiter finally said,“There are indications that your account was used for illegal transactions.”Venus froze. “What do you mean?”&ld

“Why does everything have to go wrong today?” Jupiter muttered as he returned to his desk. He tried to gather the fragments of his concentration scattered who-knew-where. He even asked the office attendant to make him another cup of coffee.As if the pressure crushing him weren’t enough, the door to his office swung open again without permission.“Sir,” Mike said hurriedly. “There’s a disturbance at customer service. A client is refusing to leave and is demanding to see management.”Jupiter closed his eyes briefly. Why, at a time like this, did another problem have to surface—one that couldn’t be resolved smoothly? “What’s the issue?”“Her account was frozen due to indications of illegal transactions,” Mike replied quickly. “She’s very emotional.”“Can’t the risk control manager handle it?” Jupiter complained.Mike he
