Harvey called Mary. "Do you know what shoe size Elara usually wears?""Huh?" Mary held her phone and looked out the window, half-expecting to see a comet crashing into Earth.This was truly unprecedented—Harvey Fisher was actually asking about Elara Jones' shoe size. But why would he want to know?Relying on a vague memory, Mary gave Harvey Elara's shoe size. Harvey then relayed the size to the sales associate.The sales associate smiled. "Are you buying these for your girlfriend?"Harvey paused. "Why would you think it's for a girlfriend?"The sales associate's cheeks flushed red under the man's gaze. "It must be a new girlfriend, right? You don't even know her shoe size."It felt like a wad of paper had been stuffed into Harvey's throat, making it hard to breathe. He had been married to Elara for seven years, yet he couldn't even remember her birthday.In truth, if he wanted to find out, he could easily access all of Elara's information. But he had never bothered.It seemed

Many in the business world believed Theodore wasn't the type to blindly throw money at a woman. His high-profile announcement of a relationship with Elara must have had ulterior motives.Elara met Theodore's gaze, seeing her own reflection in his eyes. She could even hear her heart pounding violently.The skin on her chest seemed to vibrate with each beat, her blood surging so intensely she feared her racing heart would give her away!She instinctively leaned back, pressing herself against the car window to create as much distance from Theodore as possible.Theodore noticed her reaction, and a fleeting sense of loss flashed in his eyes. "Sorry."He took a step back, putting a clear distance between them. Even though they both knew this intimacy was just an act for others, their body's instinctive reactions couldn't deceive each other.A fine layer of sweat formed above Elara's lips. "I'm fine…"Theodore probably thought she was uncomfortable with his sudden closeness, but in rea

Niamh sneered arrogantly, "I'm Ms. Niamh Jones!"Cassie smoothed out the wrinkles in her blouse. To qualify for the position of executive secretary, she had spent thousands of dollars on this tailored business suit."Ms. Elara said that since you've taken on the role of assistant to the vice president, you should act the part. It's work hours now—stop wandering around the company like you used to!"Niamh narrowed her eyes, glaring at the secretary who dared to challenge her. She turned around and kicked over a chair and a vase in the hallway.Niamh shot a fierce look at Cassie. "Do you want to end up like this vase?"With that, she kicked the vase toward the wall, and it shattered on impact. Niamh's gaze grew even more defiant as she stared at the secretary.Cassie remained calm, completely unfazed by Niamh's intimidation. She pulled out her phone and said to Niamh, "Ms. Elara said that if you lose your temper and damage company property, you'll have to pay triple the cost."If

There was nothing more painful than this! Harvey had once possessed something but never cherished it. Now that it was gone, he couldn't stop longing for it and was unable to let go.He asked Elara solemnly, "Are you sure you want to choose Theodore?"Elara replied in a businesslike tone, "We've already finalized all the details of the acquisition with Snapp Group. The official signing ceremony will take place next week."Her voice was calm and indifferent, as if Harvey meant nothing to her."Mr. Fisher, you're too late. Maybe if you had proposed acquiring Jones Group six months ago, no one would have been competing with you."But now, no matter how good your offer is, I won't accept it. Even if you could truly keep your word and not change your mind, I'd rather miss out on the three billion, five billion, or even ten billion you're offering me!"No amount of money could convince Elara to work with him. Once feelings were gone, they were hard to rebuild.It felt like thousands of

Theodore ignored Harvey, unsurprised by his presence. Instead, his gaze shifted over Harvey's shoulder, landing on Elara.Theodore's expression froze. His moon seemed to rush toward him, her eyes filled with concern for him.Elara walked up to Theodore and grabbed his wrist. The man looked down, surprised by Elara's grip, and his long lashes were trembling slightly.Elara turned to Theodore and said, "I know you came to see the urologist."Theodore looked at her, his dark eyes swirling with emotion. Just as he was about to speak, Elara stepped in front of him like a mother hen protecting her chick."Harvey Fisher, just stay out of our business!"Both men's expressions shifted at the same time. Theodore's lips curved into a smile, while Harvey's face darkened to the extreme.Harvey thought he could handle this calmly, but when Elara referred to their matter as "ours", and he, the ex-husband, was reduced to a complete stranger, his breathing grew labored.His hands hung limply at
