Chapter 81Kaitlyn BedroomKaitlyn dialed her number, and after a few rings, Sarah’s familiar voice came through.“Hey, Kait! What’s up?” Sarah chirped.Kaitlyn smiled at the sound of her best friend’s voice. “Hey, Sarah. I’ve got a lot to tell you.”“Oooh, spill!” Sarah urged, clearly excited.Kaitlyn told her everything; about the Eminence Magazine offer, change in Estefan’s recent behaviors, and how he had kissed her on the forehead again that morning. As she recounted the events, her voice wavered with uncertainty.Sarah listened carefully before bursting into laughter. “Wait, wait… hold up. He kissed you on the forehead? Twice? In a day?”“Yes!” Kaitlyn exclaimed, feeling her cheeks heat up again. “And he called me Cara Mia. I don’t know how to feel about all of this. It’s like he’s being... sweet. But that’s not part of our contract. I don’t know what he’s doing.”“Do you know what that means?! He is calling you his beloved, Kaitlyn, and you are saying you don’t know what he is

Chapter 83Back at Salvatore’s headquarters, Estefan had just finished a virtual meeting with international investors. The conference room was filled with excitement; his team was pleased with how the meeting had gone. As Estefan made his way to his office, his assistant, Anna, followed him closely, her clipboard in hand. Her expression was professional but with a hint of concern."Sir," she said carefully, “your inspection at the subsidiary group is scheduled for noon, which is in about two hours. I wanted to remind you.”Estefan didn’t stop walking, only nodding as he strode past her. “Noted.”As he walked back to his office, Anna was stunned at how her boss was handling the issue about the subsidiary inspection; he had personally scheduled this meeting suddenly last Friday.A few minutes later, Anna followed him into his office with her clipboard in hand and a cup of his favorite coffee, which she placed on his table before she went over the rest of his schedule with him. “The driv

Chapter 85The inspection at the subsidiary group began promptly after the team arrived. Though Estefan’s absence affected the team, Michael maintained his professionalism, ensuring that the inspection process went as smoothly as planned. The welcome team lined up at the entrance, greeting each member of the inspection committee with polite smiles and firm handshakes.“This way, please,” Michael gestured, his assistant by his side holding a tablet, already keyed into the day’s agenda, taking the lead, guiding the six-member inspection team through the building. The team, consisting of four men and two women, were all dressed in sharp, tailored suits and moved in silence, their sharp eyes taking in every detail. Their notepads in hand as they noted observations, occasionally pausing to ask questions.The inspection team followed him through the corridors, nodding appreciatively as Michael gave a brief introduction to each department. As they reached the Marketing Division, Michael’s as

Chapter 87Chinese Restaurant Melissa sat at a table in the far corner of a Chinese restaurant, her fingers tapping impatiently on her phone screen as she waited for Vanessa to arrive. She had spent the entire drive there fighting in her frustration looking for a way to let it all out. Her mind had been going back to the events at the studio.It was supposed to be her moment, her time to shine. Instead, the director was making moves to bring in someone new for the special season edition; a position she had worked tirelessly for. It felt like a slap in the face.Vanessa arrived a few minutes later, her heels clicking against the floor as she approached the table. She slipped into the chair across from Melissa, immediately sensing her friend’s was in a bad mood.“Hey, you look like you had a rough day and are ready to tear someone apart,” Vanessa said with a nervous chuckle, eyeing the tense expression on Melissa’s face. She slides into the seat across from Melissa before waving at the

Chapter 89Estefan’s gaze stayed on Kaitlyn; the soft glow from the chandelier above them created a delicate shadow over her face. Her lips were so close, just inches away, and the air between them felt thick, charged with an intensity he hadn’t felt in years. His heart was pounding, and he had been dreaming of this moment for far too long. How would her lips taste? Would she melt into him like he imagined, or would she pull away?He leaned in, closer, almost there—when her phone buzzed loudly, breaking the fragile electric current that had been built between them. Estefan cursed under his breath.Kaitlyn jumped slightly, her eyes moving down to her phone as Sarah’s name flashed across the screen. She muttered something, her voice barely audible, but Estefan caught it. “I—I should take this,” she stammered, grateful for the interruption. The intense pull of the moment had left her breathless, and she needed an excuse—any excuse—to get away from the confusing emotions racing through he
