Arion turned and saw Julian just arriving. He strode forward confidently. “I requested the doctors to examine Manager Jovika. This is for the company’s good, so you should undergo this examination.”Jovika hesitated briefly, but Arion immediately cut in. “If Vice Director Julian considers this examination so important, then everyone here should be checked. How about that?”All eyes instantly turned to Arion, surprised at his boldness in challenging the situation.Julian glared at him angrily, his voice booming with authority, “What right do you have to speak here?”Arion, unfazed, replied, “Vice Director, if we’re truly doing health checks, then let’s make it fair. No one, not even you, should be exempt.”Just then, the sound of steady high heels echoed through the room. Nadine appeared, exuding an unmatched aura, her presence commanding all attention.With Nadine there, Julian was forced into silence. No one could challenge her authority, and he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Clarissa was clearly far more beautiful than the woman before, and Sandy was already entertaining fantasies in his mind…“Mr. Mant,” Arion smoothly redirected Sandy’s attention away from Clarissa, “Miss Frinchy asked me to accompany Miss Youth today. I trust Manager Sandy will show her proper care.”Sandy instantly understood Arion’s meaning—an unmistakable reminder that Clarissa was part of Nadine’s team, and he had better not harbor any wicked intentions.“Very well, I’ll arrange for Clarissa to get familiar with things here,” Sandy replied, though his gaze remained locked on Clarissa’s beauty, as if caught in an irresistible spell.Having said his piece, Arion had no reason to stay longer. As Clarissa had already noted, Sandy likely wouldn’t cause any issues on her first day in the department.—Back on the thirtieth floor, Arion was summoned by Nadine to the president’s office. The moment he stepped inside, Nadine slammed the door shut, visibly upset.“Young Miss, such actions cou

“Mr. Farrel, how do you feel?” Arion asked in a firm tone, his eyes full of hope. Anxiety was clearly written on his face—this was the first time he had ever done something like this, so naturally, he felt worried.Farrel slowly opened his eyes, feeling the stabbing pain in his chest. Yet beneath that pain, there was a strange comfort flowing through his body, as if a heavy burden had just been lifted. It felt like energy was now circulating freely, something that had been lost ever since that severe injury. How could this be happening? he thought. He could hardly believe it—the power that had long been an unattainable luxury was now once again residing in his body.He tried to sit up, wanting to demand answers from Arion, but his gaze fell on Olafia, who was standing beside him. He swallowed his words and chose silence instead. Sensitive to the situation, Olafia quickly responded. “I’ll step outside for a bit,” she said, tidying her medicine box and walking out, giving them space.“A

“Pttth!” Arion choked on the water. When he turned, the sight at the door nearly shocked him out of his wits. His face froze, and the water he had just gulped sprayed out of his mouth. For the guest who had arrived was none other than Nadine.Neither Nadine nor Olafia was prepared for such a sudden mishap. In an instant, the spray from Arion’s mouth hit them squarely! Neither had time to dodge. The hot weather had left them lightly dressed, and now their clothes clung wet against their bodies, turning sheer in an instant.“Arion, you did that on purpose, didn’t you!” Nadine leapt back, her eyes flashing with fury.“Cough… cough…” Arion coughed, his face burning red. “No, I swear, it wasn’t on purpose!” His words came out broken, panicked.The atmosphere was painfully awkward. Olafia, trying to ease the tension, smiled gently. “Miss Nadine Frinchy, Arion must be very happy to see you!” Her voice was soft, as though trying to transform the near-explosive situation.Arion stood frozen. H

"Sorry, Young Miss, please forgive me. I just… just touched it, that’s all. I didn’t even drop it to the ground or damage it…” Arion said in a panic, desperately trying to explain himself.Nadine knew this was quite a big misunderstanding, but her anger toward Arion still burned. She was furious because he only made her frustration worse.Seeing Nadine standing there, seething with rage, Arion quickly placed the item on the sofa and turned around, ready to escape from the heated situation.But Nadine didn’t stay still. She grabbed the cloth lying nearby and immediately chased after Arion with determined steps.Arion ran, panting heavily, shouting as he fled, “Nadine, I didn’t even touch that device! I’m your bodyguard, I can’t handle beatings like this!”Even though Nadine was only wearing a single outfit, her fury was still overflowing. Without hesitation, she chased Arion straight out of the house.“I’m not going back inside!” Arion shouted, too afraid to reenter what now felt like
