“We need to get out so Williams can park the car. We’re holding up the line,” Edselyn said.“I can’t believe I let you talk me into coming here,” Sinjin muttered with a frown. “I have a bad feeling about this.”“Are you worried about me?” Eds asked with a smile. “That’s so sweet of you.”“Well, you and... me,” Sinjin admitted. “I just can’t shake it.”“Nothing will happen to us. This is your house, and there are security guards everywhere. It’s not like we’re going to meet the president or something,” Eds chuckled softly. “We’ll be fine.”“My mother put you up to this, didn’t she?” Sinjin grumbled. “Let me guess... she apologized and played the ‘nice woman’ card, right?”“She didn’t have to. She’s your mother, and it would look strange if you didn’t show up. People might think it’s because of what happened to me at your father’s party,” Eds reasoned. “If you don’t want to stay long, one hour is enough. Your mom even said so.”“I don’t trust her,” Sinjin muttered as he opened the door,

Sinjin sat in the board meeting, his mind distracted by the whirlwind of thoughts racing through his head. It had been two weeks since he'd last seen his wife and sons, two weeks since he'd managed more than an hour of sleep. Two weeks spent trying and failing to recall what had happened at his mother's party.Eds had asked for a break, and he was trying to respect her need for space, but it didn't stop him from attempting—and failing—to call her, just to hear her voice, or texting her, hoping for a response. The old saying that you never truly appreciate what you have until it's gone felt painfully real. She'd always been there, but he'd taken her for granted, relying on her promise from last year that no matter how much he upset her, she'd always forgive him. He knew he'd done something wrong, something to push her away, but he couldn’t figure out exactly what—and it was driving him to the brink of madness.Asking his mother for answers wasn’t an option. He was terrified of what sh

Sinjin picked up the receiver as the phone rang and put it to his ear. "Yes, Alicia?" he answered."Um, Miss Archer is here to see you, sir. Should I send her up?" Alicia inquired."Yes, please. Thank you," Sinjin replied."Very well, sir." Alicia said before ending the call.Sinjin set the receiver back on the cradle and leaned back in his chair with a sigh. He was frustrated with the incompetence of his employees, feeling they were more concerned with collecting their undeserved salaries and incentives than doing their jobs properly. He wondered if it was too much to expect even one employee out of three thousand to meet his standards, especially compared to Adella.A few moments later, there was a knock at the door. He called for Sande to enter. The door opened, and she walked in, dressed in black jeans, a white tank top, and a black denim jacket. Her short hair rested on the collar of her jacket."Hey, short stuff," he greeted with a smile, standing up and walking around the desk

Rhett assisted Sinjin up the stairs to his bedroom, with Mallucia following behind. Once they reached the room, Rhett opened the door and ushered Sinjin inside, while Mallucia shut the door behind them. Rhett guided Sinjin to the bed and helped him sit down."Thank you, Rhett. I’ll take it from here," Mallucia said."I’ll call Mrs. Bale..." Rhett began, but Mallucia cut him off."I can take care of him," she insisted firmly.Rhett nodded in acknowledgment and left the room, considering calling Eds to inform her about Sinjin but deciding against it, knowing his boss wouldn’t appreciate it. He descended the stairs and ran into Mrs. Bale."Was that the boss you brought in?" she asked."Yes," Rhett replied."I should see to his care," Mrs. Bale said, brushing past Rhett to head upstairs."Miss Goldstein insisted on taking care of him," Rhett said, placing a restraining hand on her arm."Why would she do that? She’s not his wife," Mrs. Bale said, frowning."Let’s just leave her to it," Rhe

Sande stared at Eds, speechless. She couldn’t believe what she had just heard. It couldn’t be true. She didn’t want to accept that Sinjin could be so heartless."No," Sande shook her head. "He couldn’t have done that to you. Are you sure?" she demanded."Why would I make something like that up?" Eds replied, her irritation showing. "I know what I saw. The room reeked of scotch and..." Her voice faltered as she sucked in a shaky breath. “I called a lawyer to ask about an annulment, but he said it's not possible. I can only file for divorce after two years, and we need to have lived separately for at least a year."Sande tried not to believe it, but she knew Eds wouldn’t lie about something so serious. Her disbelief quickly turned into rage, then deep disappointment, as she realized she had put Sinjin on a pedestal. She had believed he was perfect for her best friend, but no one is perfect."I'm so sorry, bestie," Sande whispered, wrapping her arms around Eds. "I wanted him to be the o
