“I can’t believe what you just did, Gideon,”

Sarah said slowly, her voice low but trembling with a mix of shock and something far more dangerous, something darker, as her eyes followed the direction Frederick and Margaret had just disappeared through, their figures fading beyond the glass doors like ghosts of a past she had buried but never truly escaped, and for a brief second her chest tightened as if those memories had reached out to drag her back into the woman she used to be.

    “Answer me now,” Gideon said again, his voice firm and low. “Where were you really last night after our argument?”Sarah swallowed hard.Her heart beat faster.She knew this moment mattered. She had to choose her words carefully or everything would collapse.She forced herself to breathe.“Okay fine… fine,” she said slowly, lowering her gaze as though she had finally given in. “I understand now.”Then she lifted her eyes slightly, preparing her story.The next moment, she shifted into her act.“Babe…”Her voice softened immediately.That single word changed her tone, making it sound emotional and vulnerable.“That night after the argument was really tough for me,” she began. “After I took my shower… like you saw me in the bathroom… I still felt heavy inside. My mind was not settled at all.”She paused briefly, letting the silence build tension.“So I decided to clear my head with alcohol. I wanted to be alone. Clomoy bar was the closest place, so I went there.”She looked down again,

    “Sarah!”Gideon's voice echoed sharply through the office.Both of them turned instantly.Gideon stood at the entrance. His eyes landed directly on Frederick's hand holding Sarah's wrist, and the atmosphere changed immediately.The air suddenly felt heavier. Neither Sarah nor Frederick expected him to appear at that exact moment.For a brief second, nobody spoke… The silence stretched then Gideon slowly stepped forward.“What are you doing here?” he asked in a deep, husky tone.His voice was calm.Too calm.And that was exactly what made it dangerous.“I think I was about leaving,” Frederick replied.He released Sarah's wrist immediately.Without waiting for further questions, he turned around and began walking away. He ignored Gideon completely, which only made the tension worse.Gideon remained standing there, watching him leave. His jaw tightened. His eyes followed Frederick until he disappeared from sight. Only after he could no longer see him did he slowly turn his attention back

    “Sarah…” His voice dropped lower again, softer this time, almost dangerous.“Never fall… this is a trap,” Sarah warned herself silently inside her head as her heartbeat continued crashing violently against her chest.Frederick was too close. Too close… she can now feel the warmth of his breath brushing against her skin. His cologne wrapped around her senses in the most familiar way possible, dragging old memories forcefully back into her mind.The nights she once rested in his arms, the way he used to hold her waist slowly.The way his lips once touched hers like she was the only woman in the world.Her stomach twisted painfully.No….No… she must not remember those things.Not now, not after everything.Sarah immediately stepped backward sharply, creating distance between them again.Her fingers curled tightly beside her body as she forced herself to regain control.“You need to stop this nonsense right now,” she said coldly, though her voice came out less steady than she wanted.Fred

    “Are you okay, Mr. Frederick? Because seriously, it seems you aren’t.” Sarah folded her arms tightly across her chest, trying hard to maintain the cold expression on her face. “You can kindly use the door. I guess you’ve overused your welcome.”Frederick stood there unmoving.His eyes never left her face for one second.The office suddenly felt too quiet and too heavy.“Sarah…” he forced out softly, his voice rough like something was stuck in his throat. “I have never stopped loving you ever since you left me.”Sarah’s expression tightened slightly but she quickly hid it.Frederick took a slow step forward.“I know what I did was wrong,” he continued painfully. “In fact, I admitted my mistakes already. I know I hurt you… I know I ruined everything between us…”His breathing became uneven.“But from the bottom of my heart…” he said again, his voice lowering emotionally, “…I sincerely want you back.”Silence, the air between them grew tense immediately.Then suddenly… A sharp laugh esca

    “Ehh… what did you just say?”Frederick’s voice came out low and shaken, almost like he could not believe what he had just heard.His eyes stayed fixed on Sarah.Sarah… at Clomoy Bar. For him.Even now, it still sounded impossible inside his head.Frederick stood frozen where he was, staring at her as realization slowly settled deeper into him.And what shocked him even more… she had not denied it immediately.That alone made his heartbeat rise.“Frederick…” Sarah called suddenly the moment she fully noticed him standing there.Her voice was calm, but underneath it was faint tension.“What are you doing here?” she asked carefully, trying to hide the shock that briefly crossed her face.Frederick swallowed hard.His chest tightened heavily.. then slowly, he stepped further into the office.“Were you in Clomoy Bar yesterday because of me?”Sarah said nothing immediately.Her expression slowly began falling apart for a second before she quickly controlled herself again, then she turned a

    “Mr. Frederick, the report of the company is getting worse. Investors are beginning to lose patience from this whole matter. We are about to go down… we need Miss Benicta back.”“Mr. Frederick… working in this company has become a disaster. Imagine owing workers salaries for over three months now!”“Mr. Frederick, we need Miss Benicta! We have to call the general director… your mother needs to intervene before everything gets out of hand!”“The only assurance we had was her presence. Kindly bring her back or we will lose our patience completely!”Those voices kept ringing endlessly inside Frederick’s head.Every hallway he passed through carried complaints.Every office corner carried fear. Every worker looked at him with disappointment hidden behind forced respect.The once powerful atmosphere of the company had completely changed.And Frederick felt it heavily.It was as if the walls themselves were closing in on him.The pressure was unbearable.His chest tightened as he stepped o

    “How dare you do that to her?”Frederick’s voice rang sharply through the hallway, heavy with anger and disbelief as he confronted Margaret immediately after leaving Sarah’s office.His chest rose and fell hard.The image of Sarah standing there silently while Margaret exposed her still replayed en

    Miss Sarah!“Miss Sarah! Miss Sarah! Please, don't go yet ” Frederick called out sharply.But Sarah did not look back.She kept walking forward with steady steps, her face firm, her expression unreadable, and her emotions carefully locked away.Frederick immediately rushed after her and tried to blo

    Sarah stood there still, her mind working quietly but intensely as she tried to control every emotion on her face.For a brief moment, she reminded herself of everything she had been taught growing up… her mother’s voice, her warnings, her lessons about strength, dignity, and never allowing an enem

    “Can you explain what you were doing there last night… Miss Biggest CEO?”Sarah froze immediately.For a split second, everything inside her went still.Her heartbeat, her breathing, even her thoughts.Then slowly, her eyes lifted.Margaret.Standing there like she had been waiting for this exact m
