"I won't give up. I've met plenty of people, but Archer is the only one who's ever made my heart flutter."

Just then, she saw Archer emerge from the elevator with his long strides, Kent beside him.

Looking at Archer's handsome face from afar, Kandice was mesmerized, her heart racing so fast it felt like it might jump out of her throat.

She quickly said "I have to go" and hung up, immediately standing to walk toward Archer.

The man ahead had an air like a gentle breeze under moonlight—truly incomparable to anyone else.

The moment he appeared, she could only see him.

Kandice quickened her pace, her heart pounding, her cheeks flushed with excited embarrassment as she approached Archer and blocked his path.

"Archer."

Kandice looked up at him, hands properly holding her purse handle in front of her, standing ladylike with eyes full of shy admiration.

Archer didn't even lower his head, just glanced down at her coldly with indifferent eyes, his stern lips parting blandly, "Who

    The CEO’s face, usually cold and impassive—practically screaming “keep your distance”—softened the instant his eyes landed on Aria.For the first time, the staff saw a gentle smile tug at the corner of his lips. Even his sharp, deep-set eyes—normally so intimidating no one dared meet them—now held a warm glow. His gaze softened ever so slightly.The change was subtle. But precisely because he was usually so unreadable, even the smallest shift stood out like a flare.Some of the staff present had also witnessed how Archer treated Lila before—utterly indifferent, colder than ever, as if he didn’t even remember who she was. Compared to that, this was like night and day.Mouths dropped open. Eyes widened. A few employees even started texting their coworkers to get downstairs now.But Aria didn’t notice any of it.The moment she saw Archer, it was like the rest of the world vanished.She froze when she saw him heading toward her with those long, purposeful strides. Her heart skipped.

    “Mrs. Duncan, aren’t you going upstairs?” Kent asked when he saw Aria lingering in the lobby.Aria glanced at her watch and shook her head. “I’ll just wait here. He’s almost off work anyway, and I don’t want to interrupt if he’s still in the middle of something.”After all, Archer had already turned down several work-related matters on her behalf.Kent didn’t press the issue. Instead, he quickly had someone bring her a cup of tea before stepping aside to make a call. He walked to a quiet corner and dialed Archer’s number. “Boss, Mrs. Duncan’s here. She’s waiting in the lobby. Said she didn’t want to bother you while you’re working.”“She just got there?” Archer’s calm voice came through the phone.“Yes.” Kent hesitated, then lowered his voice after glancing back to make sure Aria wasn’t paying attention. “She was asking me about your birthday the whole way over.”Archer’s dark brows lifted slightly. A faint smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, but he quickly masked it. Across

    “If that’s the case, then Aria’s not really that talented, is she? Sounds like she just landed those deals by cozying up to the client.” Mandy sneered, clearly bitter.The woman standing beside her glanced over. She didn’t want to get on Aria’s bad side. Mandy was new and didn’t know many people yet, let alone have any real connections. Aria, on the other hand, was close friends with Christina—and if that relationship continued, there might even be opportunities to collaborate in the future. Hadn’t Christina just gotten a leg up because of Aria?Compared to Aria, Mandy didn’t even come close.So the colleague said calmly, “Whatever the case, if she’s with Mr. Duncan, she’s not just anybody.”“Whether he’s serious about her or not, it doesn’t matter. Just being involved with a man like him? She’ll come out ahead no matter what.” And with that, the woman walked off, clearly uninterested in continuing the conversation.Mandy kept her eyes fixed on the street. The Range Rover had long

    Because she had kissed him first, Aria was now trembling all over. She looked absolutely mortified. The second those words left her mouth, she buried her face in his neck and refused to come out again.She thought she heard Archer let out a quiet chuckle.…Suddenly, her phone rang.“Ugh…” Aria groaned and gave him a little push. “I need to get that.”Archer didn’t budge. Instead, he tightened his arms around her and pulled her even closer.“It’s from home,” she added. “I set a special ringtone for family calls.”Only then did he release her. Aria grabbed the phone from the nightstand and answered. “Hello?”“…James? What’s up?”“Ask your husband when he’s free. Mom says she wants to cook and have him over for dinner,” James said over the line. “I’ve mostly talked her into it. She’s still a little hung up on pride, but sooner or later, we all need to sit down together. It’ll give her a chance to talk to both of you, get a feel for your relationship, and understand Archer a bit

    All of a sudden, she thought about how shameless Kandice was.Even after Archer had made his feelings so obvious, Kandice still acted like she didn’t get the message. Clueless and relentless, she kept throwing herself at him—like she had any right to. He was already married. To her.Frustration bubbled up inside her.She clenched the front of his shirt, tugging him toward her. She didn’t have much strength, but the moment Archer felt her pulling, he leaned in willingly, pressing himself firmly against her.A low chuckle rumbled from his chest—deep, rich, almost musical in the way it echoed through her. No instrument in the world could mimic that sound.But right now, that chuckle only made her more annoyed. Why did he have to be so handsome? Why did he have to look like that—so effortlessly tempting?He didn’t even have to try, and yet women like Kandice were still falling all over him. It was infuriating.“She likes you way too much. I’m kind of mad,” she muttered, cheeks flush

    Kandice shook her head, so Marianne assigned her to ride in Richard and Yvonne’s car instead.Kandice was fuming.Richard and Yvonne weren’t Archer’s parents—cozying up to them wouldn’t help her at all. Why would Marianne stick her in that car?And from the look on her face… was Marianne actually acknowledging Aria? Was she taking her side now?Marianne didn’t bother to guess what Kandice was thinking. She simply got into the car with Grace and didn’t say another word until they were already on the road. Then she asked, “After what you saw today, the way Archer looked at Aria—do you still think you can oppose them?”Grace stayed quiet.After what happened today, what could she even say?Even if she wanted to object… what good would it do?She had never seen Archer like that before. Not once in all these years. And even if she wanted to step in, did Archer even listen to her anymore?Marianne didn’t push for an answer. She let the silence stretch.—Meanwhile, Aaron took Melv
