“We’re here,” Cedrissa announced, a bright smile spreading across her face. She glanced up at the hospital sign, her eyes scanning the letters on the board while reading them out. “Care Haven Hospital,”

Her gaze snapped back to Alaric, her excitement palpable. “This is the biggest hospital in the city. You know that, right?” She asked.

Alaric nodded, his expression a mix of resignation and fatigue. He had been cooped up in the car for too long and was itching to stretch his legs, but Cedrissa’s enthusiasm was infectious, and he couldn’t deny her excitement.

Easton hopped out of the car, fetched the wheelchair, and positioned it beside Alaric’s door. He spread it, ready to assist Alaric out of the vehicle, but Cedrissa’s hand shot up, halting him.

“Don't worry,” she said, her voice gentle. “I’ll take care of him.”

Cedrissa quickly exited the car and walked around to the other side, her eyes locking onto Alaric’s as she opened the door. She offered a reassuring smile, which made hi

    The sleek car pulled up in front of the company, its model sending shockwaves of excitement through the crowd.“Wow!”The collective gasp was followed by hands covering mouths, eyes glued to the vehicle as if mesmerized. As gazes drifted to the license plate, speculation ran rampant.‘Could it be her? Why’d she arrive on such an enigmatic ride when Felix and the Chairman opted for more understated models?’“You can get out now, ma.” Easton said, his voice a gentle prompt. The plan had been to turn heads, and with attention firmly fixed on her, Floria stepped forward, her timing perfectly choreographed.With a slight bow, she opened the door, greeting, “welcome, ma.”Cressida grabbed her bag, took a soft breath, and stepped out, her heel touching the ground precisely. For a moment, she paused, then descended, her movements fluid.Floria stepped aside, allowing Cressida to lead the way before closing the door and falling into step behind her, bag in hand, her gaze cast downward.As Cres

    “Rule number one, take care of yourself,”“Two, if anything goes wrong, call me,”“And then there’s the third rule—the most crucial one. Show them you’re a force not to be reckoned with.”A smile curled onto Cressida’s lips as she recalled Alaric’s instructions. Despite his objections, the chairman had insisted she return to work today, and Alaric had reluctantly agreed to let her go. He wanted her to dress elegantly for the office, but she had other plans and thanks to Floria, she was now dressed in a casual yet stylish outfit—a crisp white blouse paired with fitted green trousers and a pair of heels that’d make her presence known without drawing too much attention.As she stepped out, a delicate necklace with intertwined G and K pendants caught the light, a customized gift from Alaric that added a touch of sophistication to her outfit. In her hand, she carried a sleek rectangular handbag, a gift from Easton. With Floria having taken care of her notebook and laptop, she was free to

    Anna nodded, her face still cast downward in embarrassment, and she turned slightly toward Cressida, her voice barely above a whisper. “Thank you, ma. I’ll be forever grateful for your generosity.” Her voice cracked as tears welled up in her eyes again.A warm smile spread across Cressida’s lips as she enveloped Anna in a gentle hug. “You owe me nothing,” she said softly. “But if you insist, then focus on your studies. I want to see you graduate with flying colors.”Anna sniffled and nodded reassuringly. “I promise,” she vowed, her voice filled with determination. “I won’t let you down. I’ll graduate as the overall best student.”Alaric cleared his throat, drawing their attention. “I deserve a hug as well.” He said, and Cressida’s face furrowed, unclear. He smirked, adding, “you’re showing her kindness. Shouldn’t you be gracious enough to appreciate me, too?” Cressida chuckled softly and brushed off his comment. “Let’s pack this meal for dinner. It’s getting late.” She instructed, fa

    Anna tightened her arms around Cressida, her head nestling into the warmth of her shoulder as she sniffled, trying to stop the flow of tears. “Thank you.”A soft smile spread across Cressida’s face as she tenderly rubbed Anna’s head with one hand and gently patted her back with the other. “It’s fine.” She murmured, her voice a gentle whisper, allowing Anna to shift and move however she needed to without constraint.As Anna’s head found its comfortable spot, she let out a deep breath and closed her eyes, her body slowly relaxing. Minutes ticked by, and she drifted off to sleep. But the sweet calm was shattered by the smell of burning stew. “Hun?!” They exclaimed in unison, eyes wide with alarm.Anna’s head shot up, and she rushed to check the stew, while Cressida, still disoriented, forgot to grab a napkin and opened the lid with her bare hand. “Oh!” A painful moan escaped Cressida’s lips as she managed to control her reflexes, preventing the lid from clattering to the floor and care

    Alaric’s mind had been boiling in a rage since they left Tamsin’s house. “Anna must pay!” He growled, his words echoing for the second time—first, as they exited Tamsin’s compound, and now, as they waited for the gate to swing open.As the gates creaked open, Easton’s foot hovered over the accelerator, ready to move forward. But Cressida’s stopped voice halted him. “Wait,” she said softly, her eyes locking onto Alaric’s as she turned to face him. “Alaric, I need you to take a step back. Anna’s actions were directed at me, not you. Can you let me handle it?”“But–” his lips parted to protest, but Cressida's raised finger silenced him, its gentle gesture imbued with an unspoken authority that only she seemed to wield. He swallowed his words, his eyes locked on hers as he waited for her to continue.“It’s connected to you, yes, but the device was planted on me,” Cressida pointed out, her voice measured. “I’m asking you, please, to let me handle this. Not because I’m ordering you, but be
