The sapphire bracelet my grandmother had left me, a flawless royal blue piece worth more than 4,000,000 dollars, turned up on Cecelia Swanson's social media. In the photo, the assistant, fresh out of college, raised a glass of champagne. Her smug caption made my skin crawl: [Thank you for spoiling me, Mr. Tavernier. The Professor said this bracelet alone could buy a few houses~] I sent Mason Tavernier a text. [Bring the bracelet back within two hours, or face the consequences.] He left me on Read. Two hours later, I sat staring at my phone, my finger hovering over the [Report to Police] button. Three seconds passed. Then the reception erupted into chaos. Through the venue's security cameras, I watched the police pin Cecelia against the champagne tower as spilled champagne soaked through her borrowed couture gown. They hadn't listened to reason. Thus, I would just have to teach them a lesson.

The hospital director clapped me on the shoulder. "Young people should get out and see the world. The department fully supports this."When I told my parents, I expected pushback. Instead, they were far more supportive than I could have imagined.On the day I left, they came with me to the airport.Before I boarded, my mother took my hand with a smile. "Hector's son, Trevor, is in Angleas too. I already spoke with him. He'll pick you up when you land.""Mom..." I knew exactly where this was going and started to protest."Just hear me out. Trevor is spending this year there too, getting some field experience. Hector put him in charge of the company's Angleas branch."It's a foreign country, after all. The two of you can look out for each other, and it'll put your father and me at ease. You're a young woman out there alone. We can't help but worry."My mother winked.

"Miss, Mr. Tavernier has been kneeling outside for an hour."I didn't look up. "Leave him. If he wants to kneel, let him."Outside the window, lightning cracked across the sky.Mason knelt in the downpour, soaked to the bone."Nicky!" He looked toward the door, his voice raw from shouting. "Every mistake, every single one, was mine. I'm begging you. Spare the Tavernier family. Give us a way out."I flipped through a medical journal at my own pace, bored by the whole spectacle.I had no interest in dealing with him, so I got up and went back to my room.Through the window, I looked down at Mason.At that moment, he looked as pitiful as a dog left out in the storm.After we married, my family had given th

I nodded and turned to leave.Behind me, Cecelia's tearful voice rose. "Mr. Tavernier, this is all my fault. I've ruined you…""It's not your fault. She's the one who never understood me…" Mason sounded exhausted.As the elevator doors closed, I heard him shout, "Nicole! You'll regret this!"…On the day the divorce cooling-off period ended, Mason walked into the courthouse in a full suit."Nicole." He suddenly grabbed my wrist. "It's not too late to change your mind."I pulled free and tucked the divorce certificate into my bag. "Mason, do you really think you deserve another chance?"I walked out of the courthouse and called my father, Peter Callahan. "Dad, pull every resource we've given to the Tavernier Group."There was a pause on the other end.
