ThoughtsAdrian stared blankly at the documents spread across his desk.The client issue should have been his priority.The investigation.The inconsistencies.The missing information.But instead—he kept remembering Selena standing in front of him trying to explain herself while he refused to listen.His jaw tightened instantly.No.He pushed the thought away sharply.He had his reasons.At least—that was what he kept telling himself.Still…something about everything felt wrong now.The certainty he once had was beginning to crack.And Adrian hated uncertainty.Slowly, he stood from his chair before walking toward the massive window behind him.The city looked calm from up here.Controlled.Orderly.Unlike his thoughts.His reflection stared back at him faintly against the glass.Cold eyes.Sharp expression.Controlled posture.The same Adrian everyone feared.The same Adrian who never made mistakes.But lately?He wasn’t so sure anymore.A memory suddenly flashed through his mind

Tension The receptionist’s words echoed inside her head.For a moment, Selena remained seated at her desk without moving.Just breathing.Trying to calm the strange nervousness suddenly building inside her chest.It was ridiculous.She had already spoken to Adrian on the phone last night.She knew she would eventually see him today.And yet—the reality of actually stepping into his office again suddenly felt far more overwhelming than she expected.Because too much had happened between them.Too much anger.Too much pain.Too much disappointment.Selena swallowed slowly before standing from her chair.Around her, the office continued buzzing normally with conversations and keyboard clicks, but everything suddenly sounded distant.Muted.Her thoughts were too loud.She adjusted the sleeve of her blazer nervously before grabbing the notebook resting on her desk.Then finally—she forced herself to move.The walk toward Adrian’s office felt longer than usual.Every step seemed heavier

Selena stared quietly at the computer screen in front of her, though she barely processed the numbers displayed there.The office around her buzzed with its usual rhythm.Phones ringing.Conversations blending together.Keyboard clicks echoing softly through the room.Yet somehow—everything still felt unfamiliar.Not because the company had changed.But because she had.Coming back here felt strangely different now.Like stepping into a place filled with memories she no longer trusted.Selena adjusted slightly in her chair before opening the project files Adrian gave her earlier.The amount of detail inside surprised her.Budgets.Partnership agreements.Development timelines.Brand projections.This wasn’t some small assignment.It was huge.Which only made her confusion worse.Why would Adrian suddenly place this level of responsibility in her hands after everything that happened between them?The question refused to leave her mind.Her thoughts drifted back to the conversation in

Selena stared at the blinking cursor on her laptop screen for almost thirty seconds without typing a single word.The proposal document remained half-finished.Numbers blurred together.Sentences stopped making sense.And no matter how hard she tried to focus—her thoughts kept drifting somewhere dangerous.Toward Adrian.Again.Selena sighed quietly before leaning back in her chair.The office floor had grown quieter over the past hour as employees gradually left for the evening. A few lights had already been turned off in nearby departments, leaving only the soft glow from workstations scattered across the room.She glanced toward the digital clock at the corner of her screen.8:17 PM.Great.She hadn’t even realized it was that late.Most sane people had already gone home.Yet somehow she was still here, buried beneath project files she still didn’t fully understand.A soft knock against her desk pulled her from her thoughts.“You’re still here?”Selena looked up instantly.And the

Chapter 6She sat quietly at her desk, scrolling through the presentation slides on her screen while the events of the past few days replayed endlessly inside her head.The project.Adrian bringing her back.Marisa’s nervous behavior.The strange flash drive.And most importantly—the growing feeling that something around her wasn’t right.Selena leaned back slowly in her chair.For days now, she had tried convincing herself she was overthinking things.Maybe Marisa was simply stressed.Maybe Adrian was just being professional.Maybe all the strange tension she kept noticing was only in her head.But deep down—something refused to settle.Especially after yesterday.The way Marisa reacted whenever the project was mentioned.The constant questions.The nervousness hidden beneath forced smiles.It bothered her more than she wanted to admit.A soft voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts.“Good morning.”Selena looked up.And immediately saw Sarah standing beside her desk holding two cu
