ElinaThe most frustrating thing was having to talk to someone who had absolutely no intention of listening to anything we said.He would keep repeating the same behavior over and over again, and it was incredibly annoying and exhausting.Everyone already knew him as someone who was always causing trouble. Although he had stopped sending gifts to the office, he still frequently showed up just to see me.Sometimes, he would wave at me or call out my name."He's absolutely crazy," I complained as I watched the scene unfolding before me that morning."I agree." Lana, who was drinking coffee beside me, shared my opinion.We exchanged glances before looking back at the man who seemed to have completely lost his mind."Is he neglecting his company? At this rate, he'll probably go bankrupt soon." I clicked my tongue and turned away, choosing to ignore him.I had to remember how much work I needed to take care of right now. If I kept paying attention to him, I would only end up with a headach

ElinaI woke up when the sunlight fell across my face. I yawned softly, then spent the next half hour sitting on my bed, lazily enjoying the peaceful morning.It was such a calm day, and I wanted to spend it feeling happy.After getting ready, I left my room and headed downstairs to have breakfast with my parents. Both of them were already dressed neatly.Mom often spent her time at home, but that didn't mean she didn't work at all. She had her own career and was a respected figure among the world's elite.She could spend her morning here and her afternoon in another country.Yes, that was simply how Mom's life worked, which was why she had such extensive knowledge of fashion and jewelry."So, have you decided on a new clothing designer for Raven yet?" Mom asked."Those two designers you mentioned are both very promising."I smiled at her words. "Yes, Mom. Once Lucius returns, we'll hold another meeting to decide which designs we'll use."Mom smiled at my words. "Yes, I hope everythin

ElinaThis feeling was truly strange and awkward. I had thought I would never see him again, and because I had been in such a hurry earlier, I hadn't even looked at his business card.So, hearing Dad's explanation took me completely by surprise.Jacob was now looking at me, wearing the same calm, faint smile as before.“Elina, we meet again,” he said confidently.His words prompted both of my parents to look at me before turning their gazes back to him.“You two know each other?” Mom asked.I quickly composed myself and smiled politely. After all, I knew that my dad seemed to have a fairly good relationship with this man.“I met him this afternoon, Mom. Sir Jacob helped me.”Mom nodded.Jacob gave me a small smile. He didn't seem to mind my explanation, so he said, ““Jacob. I thought we had become friends. You don't have to be so formal.” He raised his hand slightly, his friendly demeanor making both of my parents chuckle.“Jacob has always been good at making friends with everyone.”

ElinaIt had truly been an exhausting day, but it had also been a pleasant one.The important discussions were over, and now that it was time to go home, I quickly prepared to leave. To my surprise, a message from Lucius appeared on my phone.I opened it and paused for a moment, finding his message rather strange.Get into my car.“What does he mean? Is he already back?”I tried to look around. Raven was nowhere to be seen at Aether. I hadn't seen him at all since earlier.So, I immediately headed outside to follow Lucius's instructions. As soon as I stepped out, I spotted his car—the one he used back when he went by the name Lucius.Now I understood. It seemed Lucius had either instructed his driver to take me home or prepared a surprise gift for me.I assumed he hadn't returned yet, considering that his work was still unfinished. But when I opened the car door, I was utterly astonished to find him sitting inside.“Get in, Elina.”I didn't say anything. I simply climbed into the car

ElinaRight now, I was freaking bored. Not because I disliked my job, but because most of the problems I'd been dealing with lately involved paperwork.I hadn't seen Lucius training either. When he returned here, I had business to take care of in Noxis.Dad had told me that I needed to settle the ownership rights to several properties, not only in Noxis but elsewhere as well. They also wanted to hold a grand celebration.Another problem I was facing was that, this time, I'd gone out alone without Larry or Baker. Yes, I'd been a little defiant about it because I thought I'd be perfectly fine on my own.Unfortunately, the car I was driving had developed a problem. One of the tires was damaged. To make matters worse, there was no spare tire, so I couldn't replace it.Most importantly, I needed to submit some documents to the court as soon as possible because they were related to the dispute over the brand collaboration that had previously caused problems with Tony and Raven.I glanced at
