The closer he got, the more uneasy I felt, his last sentence echoing in my mind. "What are you doing out here?" he asked. "Just wanted some air. Can we go back to the mansion? I need to rest," I uttered. He hesitated before giving a nod. Alexander Knightbridge walked out after him, ending some discussions with Sebastian. As he then approached me, his presence made my legs instinctively step back slowly. "Can't wait to have you at my office tomorrow, hmmm, Mrs..." "Scarlet," I uttered sharply. He gave a slight chuckle, extending his hand for a handshake. My thoughts paused before I stretched back my hand, shaking his. His soft gr

My mind was filled with confusion and anger – I didn't want anything to do with him after he betrayed me. I wanted him to pay for what he had done.I remembered Alexander's words about being in charge of supervising the project and ensuring its success.
