IRISI barely slept.Every time I closed my eyes, I kept replaying the conversation from the night before.The list.The way Tristan had looked at it.The way he had gone quiet after reading it.It should not have mattered that much to me. He had not promised anything. He had not even said yes. But somehow, I still found myself thinking about it the moment I woke up the next morning.I stared at the ceiling for a few seconds before finally sitting up slowly.My body still felt weak.That part was becoming harder to ignore.I pressed my fingers lightly against my nose out of habit before getting off the bed carefully. Thankfully, there was no blood this morning.At least not yet.I got ready quietly and left my room, expecting the penthouse to be empty.Instead, one of the maids approached me almost immediately.“Mr. Ross asked for you downstairs.”I blinked.“Now?”“Yes.”A strange feeling settled in my stomach immediately.I nodded slowly before making my way downstairs.Tristan was

TRISTANBy the next morning, the pictures were everywhere.I knew that before I even stepped into my office.Adrian was already sitting on the couch with his legs crossed casually, scrolling through his phone with an amused expression on his face. Dylan stood near the window drinking coffee while looking far too entertained for that early in the morning.The moment I walked in, Adrian looked up.“Well,” he said. “Congratulations.”I ignored him and walked toward my desk.“On what?”Dylan chuckled quietly before tossing a tablet onto the table in front of me.“Your relationship.”My eyes moved down to the screen.Several articles filled the page.TRISTAN ROSS SPOTTED WITH MYSTERY WOMANBUSINESS HEIR FINALLY OFF THE MARKET?WHO IS THE GIRL BESIDE TRISTAN ROSS?There were pictures from outside the restaurant.

IRISI spent the entire morning trying not to think about what Tristan had said.Unfortunately, that was impossible.Because every few minutes, my stupid brain replayed it again.Because nobody speaks about what belongs to me that way.I groaned softly as I folded another towel.“He obviously didn’t mean it like that,” I muttered under my breath.“What didn’t he mean?”I nearly jumped.Lila stood beside me with her arms crossed and a look on her face that already told me I was in trouble.“Nothing,” I said quickly.She narrowed her eyes immediately.“You’ve been acting weird all morning.”“I’m not acting weird.”“You are,” she replied without hesitation. “And don’t think I haven’t noticed.”I sighed quietly.“Lila…”“No seriously,” she continued. “First, I find out you’re dating Tristan Ross which still feels fake by the way, then suddenly there are pictures of you two online looking like some billionaire romance movie.”Heat rushed to my face immediately.“Can we not talk about that?
