"Who the hell are you?" Charlotte asked, her voice unsteady and slurred, the alcohol still clouding her senses heavily as the room spun slightly around her.

Her brows knitted together in confusion and irritation as she tried to pull her hand free from his grasp.

Nathan's grip was firm, almost desperate, his fingers wrapped tightly around her wrist as though letting go would make her vanish again forever.

    "Who the hell are you?" Charlotte asked, her voice unsteady and slurred, the alcohol still clouding her senses heavily as the room spun slightly around her. Her brows knitted together in confusion and irritation as she tried to pull her hand free from his grasp. Nathan's grip was firm, almost desperate, his fingers wrapped tightly around her wrist as though letting go would make her vanish again forever."Let go of me!" she snapped, her body trembling as she tried to wrench herself away forcefully."Charlie, I messed up, okay?" Nathan said quickly, lowering his voice, forcing calm where panic threatened to break through completely. His eyes searched her face with urgency and desperation. "I know I did. I was blind. I was stupid. I was everything you think I was."Charlotte stopped struggling for a moment, lifting her gaze to him, trying hard to focus through the haze. His face felt oddly familiar, painfully familiar, yet distant at the same time. She stared at him like one would st

    The urgent call from Marcel turned out to be strictly work-related, though it came at the worst possible time imaginable. A major client from New York—one Nathan had spent years carefully cultivating, had suddenly requested a face-to-face meeting, insisting emphatically that it had to be Nathan himself. Marcel had explained everything carefully over the phone, his tone respectful but strained, aware of how delicate the situation was with Nathan's current emotional state."Sir, this client doesn't take postponements lightly," Marcel had said, pacing anxiously in his office. "If we delay too long, they might pull out completely. We could lose the entire account."Nathan had stood by the hotel window, staring down at the glowing city below, his reflection faintly visible in the glass. His mind was elsewhere: on Charlotte, on Caleb, on everything slipping through his fingers like sand."Reschedule it," Nathan said flatly, his voice devoid of emotion."Sir—""I said reschedule it," Nath

    Nathan walked back outside like a man possessed, his jaw clenched so tight it ached painfully. The night air felt heavy against his skin, doing nothing to cool the rage boiling inside him like molten lava. He barely registered his surroundings as he pushed through the gate with forceful movements.Marcel was just stepping forward when he saw him approaching. "Sir," Marcel said quickly, his voice edged with concern and worry. "Are you all right?"Nathan stopped abruptly, turning just enough for Marcel to see his face; dark, furious, unrecognizable, transformed by anger. He didn't answer. Instead, he reached out, snatched the car keys straight from Marcel's hand without asking, and marched toward the vehicle with determined strides."Sir—!" Marcel called, startled and confused.Nathan opened the car door, got in, and slammed it shut with brutal force. The engine roared to life. Before Marcel could process what was happening, the car shot forward dangerously."Sir Mills! Sir Mills!" M

    A sharp knock echoed through the apartment, cutting through the fragile calm that had settled in the room like a knife through silk. Charlotte stiffened instantly, her entire body going rigid. Her hands paused mid-movement as she packed the ointment back into the first-aid box with careful precision. Something about that knock felt wrong: too firm, too impatient, too aggressive."I'll get it," she said quietly, already rising to her feet with a sense of foreboding.Caleb nodded, watching her with a faint frown creasing his features. He had barely adjusted himself on the bed when Charlotte reached the door. The moment she pulled it open, her expression hardened dramatically.Nathan stood there in the doorway.His presence filled the entrance—uninvited, unwelcome, and heavy with unresolved anger and barely contained emotion. His suit jacket was gone, his shirt slightly rumpled and disheveled, his jaw tight with tension. His eyes swept past Charlotte immediately, searching the apartm

    By nightfall, the city had grown quieter and more subdued, the earlier rush fading into distant hums of traffic and scattered streetlights that dotted the darkness like small beacons. Nathan stood outside a modest but well-kept apartment building, his posture rigid and tense as he faced Marcel with barely contained emotion. He brought a cigarette to his lips with practiced ease, flicked his lighter open, and inhaled deeply. Smoke curled into the night air, thick and restless, mirroring perfectly the storm brewing inside him."Mr. Mills," Marcel began carefully, his tone respectful, almost hesitant, as if walking on eggshells. "We checked thoroughly. That man is you and Ms. Charlotte's high school senior. And also…" He paused deliberately, as though weighing whether the rest of his words were worth the risk of provoking Nathan further.Nathan didn't look at him directly. He exhaled slowly, letting the smoke drift away, eyes fixed ahead on nothing in particular. "Spit it out," he com

    Nathan strode toward her with long, furious steps and grabbed her wrist roughly, yanking her sharply to his side with barely controlled violence. His grip was tight, possessive, burning with panic and jealousy all at once, his fingers digging into her skin hard enough to leave marks."Who the hell is this guy?" he demanded harshly, his finger stabbing the air toward Caleb with aggressive accusation, his eyes blazing like fire. "Answer me, Charlotte!"Charlotte spun on him instantly, her own anger exploding to the surface like a volcano that had been dormant for far too long. "None of your business!" she snapped viciously, her eyes boiling with fury as she struggled against his iron hold. "Let go of me right now!"She jerked her hand violently, wrenching free from his grip with considerable effort, and moved straight back to Caleb's side as if drawn there by instinct and necessity. Without hesitation, she reached for Caleb's arm, grounding herself in his solid, reassuring presence."C
