Chapter 102The past few weeks had been torture for Kaitlyn. While she had been busy with work, Estefan, on the other hand, was becoming too sweet. He had become more attentive and affectionate, leaving her sweet messages in the morning, checking in on her throughout the day, and sometimes surprising her with thoughtful gestures. It was like they were slowly becoming what they had pretended to be—a real couple. But while Estefan seemed comfortable embracing this new feeling, Kaitlyn was struggling.Every time his touch lingered or his gaze softened, she felt a pull toward him—an emotional attachment she wasn’t ready to bear. This isn’t real, she reminded herself constantly. This is still a contract. But Estefan was relentless in his quiet pursuit, and Kaitlyn didn’t know how much longer she could keep up the façade.Salvatore’s Headquarters The grand boardroom of Salvatore Group was filled with silenced conversation as the company’s senior executives and managers gathered for their y

Chapter 104At the Dining TableThey sat down at the dining table, the meal spread before them. The soft clink of silverware filled the air as they began eating.“So,” Estefan said. “How did the meeting go? You mentioned marketing strategies?”Kaitlyn perked up slightly. “Yeah, it went well, actually. Evelyn suggested we organize a fashion show to introduce our designs. It’ll showcase everything our models will wear, and we’ll have a magazine to go along with it to highlight the entire collection. The marketing manager suggested a campaign that’ll focus on advertising across various channels, including social media and magazines, to create as much buzz as possible.”“That’s smart,” Estefan nodded with genuine interest. “You’re planning to launch everything at the beginning of the new year, right?”“Yes,” Kaitlyn said, taking a small bite of her food. “In about three weeks. It’s... overwhelming, to be honest. There are so many moving parts. Production, logistics, sales teams, customer

Chapter 106Michael and Apartment Melissa slipped off her heels and headed for the staircase, her mind already dismissing the man sitting in the kitchen. She was determined to avoid yet another argument with Michael. It had been weeks since they had shared more than a few strained words, and she had no energy left for him tonight. But Michael’s voice stopped her from moving forward.“Melissa,” he called, rising from the stand and walking towards the sitting room. “I need to talk to you.”She paused, her back still to him. She could feel him stop on his heel just behind her before continuing his walk to the sitting room. After a brief moment, she turned around, crossing her arms defensively. "About what? What do you want, Michael?"He ran a hand through his hair, clearly frustrated but trying to keep his voice level. "Just give me a few minutes of your time. Can you sit down, please?"Melissa hesitated, getting irritated. After a moment, she sighed and reluctantly walked back to the s

Chapter 108The evening was in full swing as the party officially kicked off, the buzz of conversation dying down when the moderator called for everyone’s attention. The ballroom became quiet as the spotlight shifted to the stage, where the Salvatore family was poised for the next part of the event.“Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time to recognize the outstanding achievements of some of our company’s brightest stars,” the moderator announced. “We begin with the award for the best manager and most productive subsidiary division of the Salvatore Group.”Adrian, who had been absently sipping his drink, barely registered the words until he noticed the spotlight on him and the sudden murmur and movement at his table. He looked up, only to see his name and division displayed on the large screen in bold letters. His jaw dropped slightly, his body freezing in place as the screen detailed the statistics of his division’s performance. It was the best across all subsidiaries, a feat he had not even

Chapter 110Before anyone could dwell too much on the unease, the lights dimmed as the moderator returned to the stage, signaling the next phase of the evening. “Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for the grand toast to the future of Salvatore Group. Please raise your glasses as we celebrate the legacy and the bright future ahead.”Glasses clinked all around, and Estefan’s arm tightened around Kaitlyn’s waist as they stood together, lifting their glasses in unison with the room. The atmosphere shifted to one of celebration, and Kaitlyn allowed herself to relax a little, the earlier confrontation fading as she focused on the positive energy around them.Adrian was occasionally stealing glances at Estefan and Kaitlyn, his mind still processing everything. He hadn’t missed the brief tension that had unfolded earlier when they returned from wherever they had been. His sharp eyes moved toward Melissa, who was seated with Michael now, her face set in a smug, satisfied expression. She had clear
