★★★Monica organized seventy files without letting anything else divert her focus. An agony had now settled around her waist, and she was in dire need of coffee. She discovered, though, that not many people had come to this floor, as though it were isolated from the rest of the building. Therefore, she was unable to place a coffee order, but luckily she spotted a coffee maker outside. She stood up and made her way out of the room and found the deserted floor. Her eyes swiftly peeked at William's office door and found it closed. She then walked over to the coffee machine, which was only a few steps away. While walking she had decided that she would not organize all of the files because she felt she had done too much work.Monica turned on the coffee maker and made herself a cup while glancing around sluggishly. That floor was lacking people, and she had never seen anything like it before, for an office should be a bustling place with people hurrying here and there. At the very leas

★★★★ Monica reached for her phone, which she had left in another room with the files. She unlocked it and discovered nearly ten missed calls and two texts. She read the texts as she slid the notification bar down. "Ella, this is Ethen. I chose to leave this message because you are not answering the call. I need to speak with you about something really serious, which I cannot do over the phone. Meet me at 5 p.m. at West Side Cafe. A single arched eyebrow expressed her confusion as she read the second text, “I am not bringing Diana along." Monica sighed deeply as she sat in a chair, sensing in some way that her history was surfacing in the present. Her face became aware of what was happening; although she wished to escape her past, it appeared that those times had returned to her. She was visibly depressed as she ran her fingers through her hair. Monica took another big breath and made the decision to meet Ethen. She grabbed her purse, stuffed the phone inside, and started walking

★★★★ William was furious in the office because Monica had not returned his calls, not even bothering to answer one, and she had left no hint of where she had gone. In contrast, after waiting for Monica to return, Brian departed because he wanted to take care of some business regarding the party. William continued to wait for Monica's arrival even after that since he had a sneaking suspicion that she might have gone to the loo, but he now knew that Monica was not present in the building. Baron, who was standing in the same room, was unable to discover an answer to his boss's problem given that he could see the anarchy on his visage for a specific reason. Nevertheless, there had been no meeting that might have spurred such emotion in the boss, and he also did not answer calls whatsoever. Aside from that, the conference for which he had prepared a really good presentation had been canceled by the boss for an unidentified reason. Within a few seconds, the boss's attitude fluctuated like

★★★ “As I had predicted. Hah!" With a disappointed shake of her head, she let out a false laugh. "However, I believe that as long as Sam is with me, my well-being will not be your worry unless people are desperate enough to assassinate me," Monica replied, tears welling up in her eyes, believing she had been unlucky in receiving love from those she cared about. William, who was enraged, felt an overwhelming sense in his heart as a result of Monica's voice, sensing that Monica was upset. "How come you're not looking at me?" William stated, holding the palpation because a deep dark nook in his heart desired to glimpse her eyes. Monica sharply turned her head met William's eyes and said, “Look, I understand that we are married for a reason and that I have come to terms with everything about you, but I also want to enjoy my life, therefore I don't want to explain anything to you," Monica murmured, fixing her gaze on William's face. She could sense a hint of worry there, but she was n

★★★ “It's good to have you back, Mr. William. We have made numerous attempts to get in touch with you, but you know your people! Humph! They always rejected us." With a charming smile on her face, the woman addressed William. Even though she anticipated receiving no attention from William, she made an effort to find out what was going on between the unidentified woman and William. Based on her clothes, the girl surmised that Monica could be William's secretary. “Since my time has been reserved for a crucial topic, they felt there was no reason why you needed to see me. As a result, I received no notification about you.” Not only did William's response startle the woman, but it also made Monica turn to look at him in astonishment. There were no limits to this man's sarcasm. He could easily offend someone with his remarks. “I concur with you, hehe." The woman laughed awkwardly and regretfully turned to look at her boyfriend who had advised her not to talk to William or approach hi
