Chapter 111
Elias stared at his phone for a moment, his brow furrowing in disbelief. Seraphina’s arrogance had reached a level that even he found difficult to ignore. She had accused him of stealing a card that had been given freely. She had dismissed a life-saving treatment as a trick. And now, she was offering to “reconsider” her pursuit of him as though such attention were a reward he should be grateful to receive. “Unbelievable,” Elias murmured. Sophia glanced at him. “What did she say?” Elias shook his head. “Nothing worth repeating.” With a calm motion, he ended the call. *** Several streets away, Seraphina stared at her silent phone.

A muscle twitched in his jaw as he loosened his tie. “He what?” “It’s nothing,” Jessica interrupted quickly, noticing the dangerous glint in his eyes. She forced a laugh, but even she could hear how brittle it sounded. “Think about it logically. He is pretending to be someone he isn’t. He proba

Chapter 106
At that moment, Kai was about to say something else, his lips parting slightly as if he were preparing to respond to the director's question, but then he stopped himself, his expression shifting slightly as he reconsidered. Instead, Kai turned his head and looked directly at the director, his eyes steady and unbothered, and then he just laughed—a short, quiet laugh that carried a note of cold amusement and dismissal. "I never remembered when I said it was actually your business," Kai said calmly, his tone carrying a quiet edge of finality and warning. "I never remembered when I said it was your concern whether I'm rejecting it or not, or actually saying what I want or not. That is actually none of your business. Yeah, it's actually none of your business at all." Kai paused for a moment, his eyes locking onto the director's, his voice growing slightly firmer, more pointed.
