That night, Evelyn tossed and turned in bed, restless and wide awake. Every time she shut her eyes, Sebastian’s face came back to haunt her. His voice still echoed in her ears, low and impossible to shake off. She had to admit it, without question, Sebastian had a kind of charm that was hard to ignore.The next morning, she packed up the last of her things and moved into her new apartment. The place was bright and spacious, a fresh start after the exhausting weeks she’d just survived.“Thanks, you can just set them here,” she told the movers. Once they left, Evelyn shut the door and stood in the middle of the living room, surrounded by boxes, exhaling deeply.The doorbell suddenly rang.“Coming!” she called, heading toward the door. She figured the movers had forgotten something, but when she opened it, Daniel, Sebastian’s personal assistant, was standing there.“Daniel? What are you doing here?” she asked, startled.“Good morning, Miss Sinclair. Mr. Reed knew you were moving in today

Camilla clenched her fists. Deep down, she had already decided, once she officially married Sebastian, her first move would be to fire Irene and every other female secretary, just to avoid problems later.“Are we done, Miss? If Mr. Reed isn’t at the exhibition center, should we head home?” the driver asked from the front seat.“Home?” Camilla paused for a moment. “No, let’s stop by that bakery we went to before, then head to the old Reed residence.”She couldn’t do much about Sebastian’s cold attitude, but she knew his elderly mother still liked her. Camilla intended to use that to her advantage. It was the last chance she had.Soon, the car pulled up at the Reed family home. Unfortunately, Mrs. Reed was taking her afternoon nap.“Camilla, come in. Have some coffee,” Victoria Hayes offered warmly, pouring a cup. “You’re not lucky today. Mrs. Reed always naps at this hour. She won’t be up until around two.”Disappointment hit Camilla hard. Everywhere she turned, she was met with reject

Chloe stood with her arms folded across her chest, her voice brimming with confidence.“Sebastian Reed himself gave me the authority. Sure, he appointed you, Evelyn Sinclair, as the project lead. But he never said other members couldn’t be involved. I’m just trying to help.”“Help? That’s what you call help?” Evelyn shot a glance at the old house behind her. The place was a wreck—its door covered in graffiti, the frame sagging like it could collapse at any moment.Chloe lifted her chin with a mocking edge.“Evelyn, are you living in some fantasy world? We already paid that old woman, but she refuses to leave. She clearly wants more money. This is the only way. Otherwise, the project will be delayed. Are you ready to take the blame for that?”“Knock it down,” Chloe ordered the two men standing behind her.“I’d like to see who dares,” Evelyn shot back, her voice cutting through the air.“Come on, Evelyn, don’t be so dramatic. I’m the one playing the villain here, and you’re still not sa

Lucas swept the room with an icy gaze before finally speaking.“This meeting is over. Later this afternoon, the Callahan Group will hold a press conference to apologize to the public for the damage this incident has caused. And as of now, Evelyn Sinclair, you’re officially removed from your position as project lead.”With that, he cast one last glance at Evelyn and walked out. The meeting ended halfway through, leaving everyone stunned.Director Yale stood and said simply, “For now, let’s adjourn.”One colleague hurried over to Evelyn, confusion on his face.“Why didn’t you try to explain yourself to Mr. Callahan?”Evelyn let out a sharp breath, trying to hold back the anger rising inside her.“Explain what? Do you really think he’d listen to me? He’s probably thrilled to find a mistake he can pin on me, gives him the perfect excuse to strip me of my role. Besides, that’s exactly what the company wants.”“Why would you say that?”Her fists clenched so tightly her knuckles turned wh

Sebastian looked at Evelyn with steady confidence.“This project is backed by a government subsidy. Since Callahan’s company created a scandal, the government has every right to take the project back. If they had to restart the entire process, it would take forever. So relax, don’t rush it.”Evelyn still looked uncertain. “But can I really handle this on my own? What if the new company isn’t trustworthy?”Sebastian’s smile stayed calm. “That’s not your problem. What matters now is that you build your own team. Can you do that?”In that moment, a surge of confidence rose inside her. “No problem,” she answered firmly.Night fell. The Callahan building still glowed bright against the dark sky.On the top floor, a thick folder slammed against the conference table, its contents scattering across the polished wood. Lucas Callahan stood with a thunderous face, fists clenched.“Not one of you can come up with a solution? What the hell is the point of keeping you here?”One of the managers f
