> “Make sure the flowers are delivered this morning—exactly at eight.”Rafael spoke firmly into the phone, his eyes fixed on a small slip of paper covered in his own handwriting.He had written it carefully the night before, every word carrying meaning.For Nadine — the woman who taught me the strength of silence.I come not to take anything from you, only to protect your heart from afar.— RafaelAfter hanging up, Rafael took a long breath.His heart pounded wildly, like a young man about to confess love for the first time.He had kept those feelings buried for so long—afraid to hurt her, afraid to be rejected.But today… he wanted to try.He wanted Nadine to know that someone loved her unconditionally.---Meanwhile, on the top floor of N.R. Corporation, Nadine had just entered the conference room.Mira followed close behind, carrying several important folders.> “This morning’s agenda, Madam: the southern branch acquisition report, and the signing ceremony with SilverTech.”“Alrigh

> “Impossible…”Rafael stared at the laptop screen, his eyes wide.The blue light from the monitor reflected off his tense face, his breath caught in his throat.He had just traced the digital footprint of the sender behind the fake message — and what he found made his blood run cold.> “This address…” he murmured, moving the cursor.A name appeared in the corner of the screen — livia.davin.oldmail@*His fingers trembled.> “Livia?”It was the old email address belonging to Livia Davin, Nadine’s half-sister — the very woman who had destroyed Nadine’s marriage to Davin years ago.That email was supposed to have been inactive for years.But the access logs showed otherwise.> “This account was used again… two weeks ago?” Rafael muttered, his brow furrowing.He zoomed in on the IP location data.The coordinates pointed straight to the southern district, right around the N.R. Corporation South Branch office.> “So… someone there used Livia’s identity?”Or — Rafael thought uneasily — maybe

> “Nadine, please… just listen to me for five minutes.”Rafael’s voice broke the silence of the misty afternoon as the iron gates of Nadine’s private villa creaked open. He stood at the entrance, drenched in rain, gripping a folder tight against his chest.The guards hesitated, exchanging uncertain looks, but when Nadine’s calm voice came through the intercom —> “Let him in.” —they moved aside.Rafael walked through the long path lined with wet magnolia trees, his shoes splashing against puddles. His heart thudded like thunder; he had rehearsed this moment countless times.When he reached the porch, Nadine was already there — standing tall, arms folded, face expressionless. She wore a beige sweater, her hair tied neatly behind, eyes sharp as winter glass.> “You shouldn’t be here,” she said coldly. “I told Mira I don’t want to see you again.”> “I know,” Rafael said, voice trembling slightly. “But I couldn’t let things end like this — not when I know the truth.”Nadine crossed her a

> “I knew it,” Rafael muttered under his breath, staring at the monitor in front of him.Lines of code, email logs, and digital timestamps glowed on the screen of his laptop in the dim light of his apartment. He hadn’t slept for two days. His eyes were bloodshot, his jaw tight, and his determination sharper than ever.He clicked open one last folder — the file he’d been tracing since the scandal broke. A name appeared at the top of the digital trail.Livia Hartono.The cursor blinked beside it, mocking him with silent confirmation.> “So it’s you,” Rafael whispered.“You never left after all.”---Earlier that day — N.R. CorporationMira stepped into the CEO’s office with a worried look. Nadine was standing by the window again, her expression unreadable, her hands clasped behind her back.> “Madam,” Mira began carefully, “our PR team traced the first wave of scandal posts. The IP addresses… they’re linked to Arvis Steel Corp.”Nadine’s jaw clenched.> “Arvis. Of course. They’ve been c

> “We got her!”Mira’s voice echoed through the dim-lit operations room of N.R. Corporation, her eyes glowing with triumph as she pointed to the live footage streaming across the monitors.On the screen, Livia was surrounded by police officers, her face twisted in fury as cameras flashed around her. Reporters shouted questions while she was escorted out of a luxury hotel lobby in handcuffs.> “Caught red-handed trying to bribe the media,” Mira said, exhaling in relief. “It’s finally over.”But Rafael didn’t smile. His gaze remained fixed on the screen, his jaw tight.> “No,” he murmured. “It’s not over yet.”Mira blinked.> “What do you mean? We have her on record—emails, money transfers—”> “You don’t know Livia like I do,” Rafael interrupted, standing abruptly.“She always keeps a card hidden. She won’t go down quietly.”---Later that evening – Nadine’s office.Nadine was reviewing her notes for a late-night business conference when her phone buzzed.A message. No name. Just one li
