    The elevator was packed wall-to-wall with mid-level managers, junior analysts, and administrative staff, all practically vibrating with excitement over their glowing smartphone screens."Did you see the photos from Manhattan Elite last night?" a marketing coordinator whispered loudly to her colleague. "He literally carried her out! Like a straight-up movie scene!""I know! They are totally back together," a financial strategist chimed in, scrolling through the high-definition pictures of William sweeping Jessa into his arms."I mean, look at her face! She looks completely smitten. And that diamond necklace? That’s not a 'just friends' gift."Jane stood dead center in the el

    Jane chewed aggressively, raising a single, dark eyebrow at the screen. "7:00 AM sharp?" she scoffed aloud to her empty kitchen, shoveling another bite of pork into her mouth. "You wish, Reynold. You're lucky if I show up by eight."An hour later, thoroughly stuffed, shower-fresh, and wrapped in her favorite oversized sweatpants, Jane finally collapsed onto her bed. Her anger had settled into a comfortable, sleepy warm haze. She picked up her phone to do her nightly scroll through social media before turning off the lights.She opened her browser, and the absolute worst mistake of her night stared right back at herThe top trending headline across every major Manhattan elite blog and gossip site was plastered in bold, neon-red text, complete with a high-definition photo array:[REYNOLD ENTERPRISES CEO REUNITES WITH SUPERMODEL JESSA WHITE! EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS OF WILLIAM REYNOLD CARRIED HIS 'WEAK-KNEED' BEAUTY OUT OF PRIVATE SUITE AFTER ROMANTIC DIAMOND-STUDDED DINNER!]Jane’s blood instan

    "It was my idea. I customized the menu myself—I had no idea you’d turn out to be allergic to... whatever exotic ingredients the private chef sourced tonight. I sincerely apologize, Jessa. Though I hope the diamond necklace compensates for the inconvenience."Jessa’s furious expression instantly melted. The anger in her eyes vanished, replaced by the calculating shine of a woman who knew the exact market value of the platinum-and-diamond piece resting in the velvet box on her lap."Well..." Jessa purred, a triumphant, slow smile spreading across her lips. She reached over, her manicured hand resting lightly on William’s broad shoulder as she leaned in close. "That would certainly be enough for the trouble, darling. I have to admit, your boring little secretary actually has magnificent taste. I like the necklace so much."William stared down at her hand on his shoulder, his dark blue eyes remaining dead cold despite the small, polite smile fixed on his lips.She doesn't have magnificen

    A faint, high-pitched gurgle echoed from somewhere beneath her silk gown. It sounded suspiciously like an outboard motor struggling to catch a spark. Jessa’s eyes widened to the size of dinner plates, her posture snapping straight up as a light sheen of cold sweat instantly broke out across her forehead."William, darling," she squeaked, her voice suddenly two octaves higher. "Where... where is the powder room?""Right down the hall, second door on the left," William replied, his jaw twitching.Jessa didn't walk; she practically levitated out of her chair, her backless gown fluttering behind her as she power-walked out of the dining suite at a speed that defied high heels.Not thirty seconds later, the kitchen doors swung open, and Jane stepped in carrying a fresh bottle of sparkling water, her expression an absolute picture of innocent, dutiful secretarial concern.Smirking triumphantly behind William's back, Jane didn't wait around to face the impending nuclear fallout. She darted

    William stood up from his chair, his tall frame looming over the desk as he stared at her rigid spine. The dark satisfaction he had felt all afternoon suddenly tasted like ash in his mouth. He had wanted to provoke her, to break through her icy professional shell, but seeing the quiet, guarded hurt in her eyes felt like a self-inflicted wound."Make sure..." William began, his throat tightening as he struggled to find the words without completely surrendering his pride. "Make sure you stay until the setup is completely finished."Jane didn't turn around. "Of course, Mr. Reynold. It's my job."She stepped out and closed the door behind her—not with a slam this time, but with a quiet, hollow click that echoed much louder through his empty office.By 6:45 PM, the executive private dining suite on the 40th floor looked like the set of a high-budget romantic drama.Jane stood in the doorway, her arms crossed tightly over her yellow suit, eyeing the room with a look of pure, malicious calcu

    She slammed a ceramic coffee mug onto the granite counter with enough force to send a micro-fissure rippling down its side. Her stomach let out a loud, miserable growl—the deadly combination of a lingering hangover, pure fury, and complete starvation finally catching up to her.Without a single shred of hesitation or corporate decorum, Jane marched over to the executive fridge, yanked it open, and snatched the artisanal smoked-turkey-and-avocado sandwich William’s private chef had delivered for his lunch two hours ago.She didn't care if he asked about it later. She didn't care if he launched an official internal investigation. She ripped open the parchment paper and shoved half the sandwich into her mouth like a starved cow, chewing aggressively while pacing in her rumpled yellow suit."Jane, breathe," Allan sighed on the other end of the line, the sound of a coffee grinder whirring in the background of his apartment. "You're going to choke on his luxury turkey.""I hope I do choke!"
