Nova was surprised.

She looked up at him in confusion, wondering why he had suddenly appeared behind her.

But the man only stared back at her calmly, without much expression on his face.

So Nova recollected herself.

She had barely turned back toward the plans when Hayden appeared behind Lucien with a chair.

“Sir.”

Lucien glanced at him.

Without saying anything, he pulled the chair over and sat down directly beside Nova.

Reese's expression immediately darkened.

Alex, however, seemed delighted by

    Lucien stood directly beside her with a calm expression.He held out a pair of sunglasses.“Put these on.”Nova looked at him but didn't respond immediately.After a moment, she shook her head lightly.“I’m fine.”“It’s bright.”She glanced toward the sky.The afternoon sun was indeed stronger now, and the open construction site offered very little shade.Still, Nova shook her head.“I’ll be fine.”Lucien looked at her for a moment.She had accepted the drink Reese brought her without hesitation, yet she wouldn't even accept his sunglasses.However, he didn't argue.Instead, he placed the sunglasses on top of the documents in her hands.“You’ll be here for several more hours.”His tone was calm and matter-of-fact.With that, he turned and walked away.Nova stared after him for a moment before looking down at the sunglasses in her hands.A few feet away, Clara exchanged a glance with the other two men.They had been watching the interaction.None of them said anything, but they were cl

    Nova was surprised.She looked up at him in confusion, wondering why he had suddenly appeared behind her.But the man only stared back at her calmly, without much expression on his face.So Nova recollected herself.She had barely turned back toward the plans when Hayden appeared behind Lucien with a chair.“Sir.”Lucien glanced at him.Without saying anything, he pulled the chair over and sat down directly beside Nova.Reese's expression immediately darkened.Alex, however, seemed delighted by the opportunity.He quickly stepped forward and adjusted his glasses.“President Delacroix, I'm Alex Carter. I'm part of the XC project team. It's an honor to work with Delacroix Energy.”Lucien only glanced at him.“Mm.”Alex's smile stiffened slightly.For a moment, he seemed unsure whether he had actually been acknowledged.Reese nearly smiled.He had to admit, President Delacroix's response was rather satisfying.Unfortunately, the satisfaction lasted only a second.His gaze landed on the m

  • My Kickass Wife Never Suffers A Loss   The Project Manager

    “Wait. Isn't that President Delacroix?”The woman continued staring through the windshield.“He actually came here personally?”Nova hadn't expected to see Lucien at the site.Beside her, Reese's expression darkened further.He said nothing as he pulled into the parking area and stopped the car.A moment later, they all stepped out.The site had already been set up for construction.What had once been nothing more than a stretch of cleared land had begun to take on the appearance of a massive development in progress.Temporary offices had been erected near the edge of the site. Engineers moved between different sections with rolled-up plans in their hands, while surveyors checked measurements and marked locations across the ground.The entire area was busy.Among them, one figure was particularly easy to recognize.Lucien.He was dressed more casually than usual for a business meeting, although there was still nothing casual about him. A dark shirt was tucked neatly into his trousers,

    Her fingers remained above the keyboard for a moment.Client: Is this Z?Nova's eyes narrowed slightly.Her username was kept private so they shouldn't have been able to tell who she was.The client's own username was also unfamiliar.There was nothing unusual about the message itself.What was unusual was the name he had used.Z.In the dark-web world, there were very few people who needed only a single letter to establish their reputation.Z was one of them.She had been operating under that identity for years, and although very few people knew anything about the person behind it, her name had gradually become something of a legend on the darker corners of the internet.If someone wanted a problem solved quietly, a system breached without leaving traces, or information that could not be obtained through ordinary means, Z was one of the names that would eventually surface.There was only one other hacker whose reputation could stand beside hers.X.But unlike Z, X rarely appeared on

    "Boss!"Nova turned back to look.Spencer and Jordan stood at the entrance.The moment they saw her, both men visibly relaxed."We were about to call Reese again.""You weren't answering your phone."Nova blinked.She reached into her bag and pulled out her phone.Only then did she see the missed calls.She had been so distracted at the hospital that she hadn't noticed them."I'm sorry." She looked at them. "I didn't hear it."Jordan frowned."We thought something happened.""I'm fine."Nova gave them a reassuring look."Don't worry."The two men exchanged a glance.Neither seemed completely convinced, but they didn't press her.Nova walked inside.The warm lights of the villa greeted her, and some of the tension that had followed her home from the hospital finally began to loosen.She slipped off her shoes and sank onto the sofa.For a moment, she simply sat there.Then Spencer spoke."Boss Fabian called."Nova looked up."He asked us to keep an eye on you."Nova frowned."Why?"Jord

  • My Kickass Wife Never Suffers A Loss   She Already Closed That Chapter

    "Thank you for coming when I called."Nova turned and looked at him.For a moment, she didn't answer.The hospital doors behind them had already closed, leaving the corridor quiet. There was no one else in sight, and the two of them stood beneath the pale lights outside the emergency room.Nova's gaze rested on Lucien's face.There was a slight stubble along his chin, making her brows crease faintly.Lucien was meticulous about his appearance. He rarely allowed his beard to grow out.He must have been overworking himself.The thought crossed her mind, but she only noticed it. She didn't say anything."I didn't come because you called." Her voice was soft. "I came because of Grandma."Lucien's eyes remained on her."I know."There was no surprise in his expression.Perhaps he had never thought otherwise.Nova looked away first.She slipped one hand into the pocket of her coat, her fingers brushing against her phone."What did the doctors say?"Lucien looked at her calmly. He knew she
