ϖϖϖϖϖ"You still can't find him?" Nora asked, her eyes narrowing on Max, filled with frustration, "Did you check his office?""Yes, Ma'am, I did," Max replied, calmly. “It’s empty.”"The meeting room?""All of them," he confirmed. "Why don’t you try calling him?""I did," she sighed, rubbing her temples in agitation. "He's not picking up."She hesitated, then added, "What about Lucas?”Max shook his head. “Out with a client. Off-site.”"And Noah isn’t with him?""I don’t believe so."Nora let out a frustrated breath. “Then where the hell did he go?”After his confrontation with Rosa, she’d expected anger, maybe a slammed door. She hadn’t expected that… their raised voice, the shockwave it sent through the entire floor. And then Noah stormed out before she could even reach the doorway.Part of Nora

ϖϖϖϖϖNora stood frozen, her heart pounding so hard it felt louder than the silence around them. She didn’t know what to say. Didn’t know how to move.Her eyes stayed on Noah, but her thoughts scattered… replaying everything, searching for something that made sense. Nothing did.She wanted to cry, but the tears wouldn’t come. She wanted to scream, but her throat felt locked.Something inside her had cracked, and now everything felt too heavy to hold.Why hadn’t he just told her the truth?Why had he let her believe… again… that she was losing something she had barely begun to hold onto?You should’ve told me. I would’ve stood by you. I would’ve understood. But now… this feels like too much.A bitter sound slipped from her throat before she could stop it.“Ha,” she laughed softly, hollow. Even her own voice sounded unfamiliar. “So, you lied about meeting her… and you already knew she was pregnant?” Her voice rose despite herself. “What is this, Noah? Why does it feel like I just lost a

ϖϖϖϖϖ“Ahh…”Nora yawned deeply, stretching her arms over her head as she stared at the mountain of files cluttering her desk. Her eyes burned from staring at screens for too long, and her neck protested sharply when she leaned forward again.“When exactly is this nightmare supposed to end?” she muttered, exhausted. “That’s what happens when you take time off,” Max said cheerfully as he walked in—arms full of even more folders.Nora lifted her head slowly, unimpressed. “And you’re bringing more?” Her gaze flicked from the files to his face. “Ah. I’ve always suspected you hated me, but Max… this?” She gestured at the stack. “This is criminal.”“Hey, that hurts,” he replied, grinning as he dropped the files onto her desk. “I’ve been covering for everyone these past weeks… including you. Instead of plotting my promotion, I’m being accused of sabotage. Cold, boss. Absolutely cold.”She snorted. “Promote you? To what… senior PA? Or should I skip steps and make you CEO of Bamford Emp

ϖϖϖϖϖAva stormed into the company building like a woman running out of time.Her heels struck the marble floor too fast and loud, each step echoing the frustration in her chest. Panic clawed at her ribs. Regret followed close behind. Anger came last… hot, useless… aimed at a child that never existed and a lie that should’ve collapsed the moment she’d thought twice."Who do I even apologize to first?" she muttered under her breath.Her pride was gone. Her dignity too. At this point, those were luxuries she couldn't afford. This wasn’t about saving face anymore. It was about survival.Confess now… or wait for Noah to find out on his own.Not a chance.The thought alone made her stomach twist. Noah discovering the truth without her controlling it? That was worse than humiliation; it was destruction… hers."How’s the soon-to-be mom doing?"The teasing voice came from behind her.Ava spun around, anger already flaring… then froze.Noah.Her breath caught. Her spine stiffened.“Noah,” she

ϖϖϖϖϖ Ava blinked rapidly, her mouth opening before her brain could catch up. The words had slipped out… loud, careless, and damning. Shit. Her heart slammed against her ribs as she took a slow step back, silently praying she hadn’t said that out loud. But she did and they heard. Noah’s eyes narrowed like a loaded gun. Nora’s brows knit together, confusion replacing shock. She tilted her head slightly. “What do you mean … I got your baby? How exactly did I do that?” Ava forced a nervous laugh, waving a dismissive hand as if she could swat the moment away. “Nothing. I… I didn’t mean it like that.” “That didn’t sound like nothing.” Noah said coldly. She tried to move past him, but he was faster. Noah grabbed her arm and slammed the door shut. The sound echoed sharply through the room. “Now,” he snapped. “You’re going to talk. Before I lose what little patience I have left.” Damn mouth, Ava cursed inwardly. She exhaled slowly and looked anywhere but at them. “
