Ryan muttered, though uncertainty had begun to creep into his voice. “It has to be a coincidence.” “No, no,” Victoria said, shaking her head frantically. “Sophia Nathaniel would never agree to meet that loser.” But her voice lacked conviction. Landon’s confident smile faltered as he studied their anxious expressions. “What is going on?” he demanded. “Why are you all acting as though this village doctor might actually be important?” “That village doctor,” Victoria blurted out, nervously twisting her Cartier bracelet, “just left here claiming he had a meeting with Sophia at Crystal Bay. You said you met Sophia there earlier.” Landon’s carefully maintained expression cracked. 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. "And I'm sure that you should know how to respect boundaries, huh?" Kai continued, his tone calm but carry

At that moment, seeing the look on the chairman's face, seeing how the chairman was reacting, the director could tell immediately that the chairman was devastated, utterly devastated, and angry by the whole thing. The chairman's expression had shifted—his eyes narrowing, his jaw tightening, his posture stiffening with barely contained frustration and disbelief. And the director knew, yes, he knew deep down that what Kai had just said was the truth. Kai was just a nurse. But the director had promised Kai something. He had promised Kai that if he was able to heal the chairman, if he was able to deliver on what he said he would do, then the director would give him the position of head of the Patient Relations and Healing Department in the hospital. That was the deal. That was the agreement. So who was he—who was the director—to actually break that promise now? Who was he to allow this moment to slip into embarrassment, into anger, into a situation that would reflect poorly on him
Chapter 105
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. For the first time in years, someone had hung up on her in the middle of a conversation. “Did he just...” she whispered. Her eyes widened. “Did he just hang up on me?” Her fingers curled around the communicator until her knuckles turned pale. “I am the War Goddess,” she said through clenched teeth. “No one hangs up on me.” She
