Hearing Ignatz’s response, I noticed how Summer's eyes sparkled. She couldn’t conceal her excitement, clearly yearning to get married."That's wonderful. Be sure to invite me to the wedding. I’ll prepare a generous wedding gift for my best friend." Seeing Summer so happy lifted my mood. Despite my marriage troubles, I wished for their happiness.As we chatted about various topics, we began our meal. The restaurant wasn’t upscale, but the food was surprisingly delectable. Summer always had a talent for choosing great spots.Midway through dinner, she paused and looked at me hesitantly. "Rina, I actually invited one more person tonight. I was worried you’d be upset, so I didn’t mention it earlier."I frowned, curious about who it was and why I might be displeased to see them. "Who is it? Why aren’t they here yet?" I asked in puzzlement."I called him and he said he was in a meeting. He said he’d come after." Summer’s eyes shifted, suggesting guilt."Who would be busy with meetings

Despite his reasoning, I couldn't muster a counterargument. It was true. If Summer hadn't called him, he wouldn't be here."You knew I’d be there, so you should’ve declined her invitation. But you accepted it anyway." I also realized that if I wasn’t in attendance, he likely wouldn't have shown up either. His acceptance of Summer’s invitation was undoubtedly intended to see me."Smart girl. You’re absolutely right. I came because you were going to be there, but so what? I only promised not to seek you out on my own accord. I didn't say others couldn’t arrange a meeting between us. Honestly, I should be thanking your best friend." He smiled smugly, enjoying my frustration.My hands clenched into fists as I suppressed my fury. I turned my face to the window, unwilling to argue further. Experience had taught me that he was usually the one who came out ahead in such exchanges. A subtle smile remained on his face, but he stopped arguing and suddenly took a sharp turn at the intersection.

Tossing and turning, it took me a while to finally fall asleep. When I woke up the next morning, Jethro had already left, just like the day before. This left me feeling surprisingly empty. Reflecting on his words from last night, I became conflicted. Checking my phone, I found no calls or messages from him, intensifying my sense of loss.In the following days, Jethro stayed away, which brought me both relief and a slight sadness. Since that night, it was as if he had disappeared from my life. It felt like we were strangers.We had an arrangement for me to visit Seren in Verdantia every Friday. When I arrived the following Friday evening, it was the nanny and Seren who greeted me. Jethro wasn’t with them. After searching the house and confirming his absence, I felt an additional pang of sadness."Ms. Serena, Mr. Jethro isn't here today. I brought Seren here," the nanny said gently upon noticing my disappointment as she handed the child to me.Accepting that Jethro wasn't there, I

They still saw me as the old, naive Serena Hart, the one easily misled by simple words, didn’t they? If so, I found it almost amusingly naive."I'm afraid I can't comply with that. I've returned with the sole purpose of regaining custody of Seren. I'll do everything in my power to bring my son back to me. He’s my child, and the Willows have no right to keep him from me.”The son I bore and struggled so dearly for was unjustly taken from me, leaving me without even the right to see him. What authority did they have to make such a decision? Had it not been for the Willows’ intervention, my child would be with me now. Their cruelty had caused a year of separation between us, and if I were to accept this injustice quietly, I’d be nothing short of a saint.Connor's expression changed to one of shock as he heard my declaration, his eyes flashing with coldness. "You're back to take custody of Seren? Do you think I’d just allow that?"His warning tone didn’t intimidate me. The more he thre

Adam’s agreement to collaborate, albeit with conditions, was a cause for excitement. At least Nexus had secured a year-long partnership."I assure you that you won't be disappointed with Nexus, Mr. Adam. I'll bring my secretary with me to your office tomorrow to finalize the details." I was eager to capitalize on this opportunity and close the deal immediately after his contract with Jethro expired."Sure." Adam looked at me and added softly, "Aren't you curious why I agreed so readily?""Why?" I had indeed been surprised at how quickly Adam had agreed to collaborate. I initially attributed it to overthinking, but now it seemed there was more to it."I value your earnestness and responsibility. As a director, you could’ve delegated the task of meeting with clients to your subordinates, but you chose to be directly involved. It speaks volumes about your commitment. I’m confident in entrusting my company's business to someone as committed as you."Adam's words were full of praise. W
