Kate’s POV
When I arrived at the office, the atmosphere felt formal and stressful again. The aroma of coffee from the next room greeted me, bringing a little sense of calm after the fun time I spent with Erlan. However, I knew that today would be filled with responsibilities and important decisions again.I walked through the lobby with a faint smile at the receptionist, who returned my smile politely. Arriving in front of my office door, I took a deep breath before opening it. A realization that even though life goes on, I must stay focused on my work.Inside, my secretary, Maya, was waiting with a stack of files in her hands. She was always punctual and organized, something I really appreciated amidst this busy schedule.“Good afternoon, Mrs. Kate,” Maya greeted politely. “There are some files that need to be signed today. Also, there are some meeting schedules that you need to review.”I nodded as I took off my jacket and placed it onRelated chapters

Kate’s POV“Yes, ma’am. I will arrange it immediately.”I hung up the phone and stared at the computer screen in front of me. The nervous feeling slowly turned into a fighting spirit. I knew that this competition would be tough, but I was more than ready to face whatever came. Both as a company leader and as someone who had to prove herself to her ex-husband, I would not back down. Slowly, a faint smile appeared on my face. The game had just begun, and I was ready to play. I looked back at the computer screen, feeling the throbbing in my head that indicated the tension that had not subsided. Even though I tried to focus on work, the thought of how the meeting with Darwis would go still haunted my mind. I knew very well that in the business world, I could not let personal feelings affect my professional judgment. However, this time it felt different. There was something about this competition that made it more than just a job. I t

Darwis' POVI stared at the computer screen in front of me, lost in the various graphs and moving numbers. The new project I was working on at Golden Group was one of the biggest projects in my career. The central building we were going to build was not only a symbol of the company's strength but also an important marker for my reputation as a successful leader.The success of this project would not only benefit the company but also strengthen my position in the business world. The building that was planned to stand majestically in the city center had been my main focus for the past few months. My team of architects and engineers had been working hard, and now we were almost at the tender presentation stage, where everything would be determined.Usually, I always felt confident in facing a big project like this, but this time there was something different, something that was bothering me. The name that appeared on the list of bidders was Kate.I r

If I could prepare everything well, then I could face Kate with my head held high and my heart at ease.Next week would be a big one, and I was determined to give it my best shot. I might not know what was going to happen, but I was confident that I was ready for whatever came—including meeting Kate.With that in mind, I went back to work, strategizing and preparing everything for the upcoming presentation.

Kayra's POVThe sky outside the window was gray, perfectly depicting my gloomy mood. I sat in the corner of the room, staring blankly at the curtained window. Since that incident, I felt like I was trapped in endless darkness. Every second, every minute, was filled with nothing but emptiness and deep sadness. I used to be a woman full of life and ambition, but now, I couldn't find anything that could motivate me to get out of bed every morning.The silence of this apartment was so oppressive. Every corner reminded me of what I had lost, of the life I used to have. But the most painful thing was the image of my child who I could no longer hold, could no longer touch. Losing him made me fall into a deep abyss of despair. And what was worse, I almost went to prison because of my own fault—because of my burning hatred for Kate.Kate. That name made my chest tighten every time I remembered it. The woman who was now the source of all my suffering. I blamed her f

Kayra's POV I walked to the table in the corner of the room, pulled out a drawer, and took out a small notebook that I hadn’t touched in a long time. In it, I began to jot down all the ideas that came into my head—ways to ruin her career, ruin the relationships she had, and ultimately, ruin her life completely.I wrote quickly, almost in a trance, as if my hands and mind were working nonstop. Word after word, plan after plan, everything began to take shape clearly. And the more I wrote, the more I felt that this was the only right thing to do.When I was done, I closed the book and stared at it in satisfaction. This was only the beginning, but I knew that I was on the right track. My revenge would not be deterred by anything. Nothing could stop me now.I reached for the chocolate cake Darwis had brought, broke a small piece, and put it in my mouth. The rich sweetness brought me a momentary relief, but it couldn’t erase the bitterness I felt. I p

Erlan's POVI sat in my office, trying to focus on the pile of files in front of me. However, my mind kept running elsewhere, stuck on Kate and everything that had happened between us lately. Her smile, the way she talked, and the warmth that was starting to grow between us, all made it difficult to concentrate. But behind all that, there was a doubt that slowly crept in. Our relationship had never been simple, and I knew there were invisible boundaries that I had to respect.While I was lost in those thoughts, my cell phone rang on my desk. The name on the screen made me momentarily stunned—the President and Director of the company, who was none other than Kate's father. I felt something serious was up. Maybe it was about work, or maybe it was something more personal. I took a deep breath and picked up my phone."Good afternoon, sir," I greeted politely."Erlan, can we meet this afternoon? There's something important I want to talk to you about,"

Erlan's POV When I returned to the office, my mind was still filled with Kate's father's words. I knew he only wanted the best for his daughter, but I also couldn't ignore my feelings. Was this really the end of my relationship with Kate? Or would I fight against all these odds and fight for something bigger than just status and position? I didn't know the exact answer, but one thing was clear—I had a tough decision to make, and whatever it was, it would have big consequences for both of us. After the tough meeting with Kate's father, my feelings were mixed. I couldn't ignore the words the man had said—words that not only hurt my pride but also shook my faith in the budding relationship between me and Kate. That night, I barely slept, my mind kept spinning about what I should do. I thought about Kate, her smile, the way she talked, and how I felt when I was with her. However, the shadow of her father's words continued to haunt me, adding to the burden on my shou

Kate's POVIt's been a few days since I started to feel something strange with Erlan. Usually, he was always there for me—supporting me, listening to all my stories, and making me feel loved. However, for some reason, lately, his attitude has changed. He still smiles at me, but it's not as warm as usual. He still talks to me, but his words feel empty like he's hiding something.I tried to ignore this feeling at first. I thought maybe he was just tired of work or had other problems that he didn't want to burden me with. But as the days went by, the change in his attitude became more obvious. He started to avoid spending time with me outside of work, no longer invited me to lunch together, and even the text messages he usually sent when I was busy began to be received less often. This wasn't the Erlan I knew.Last night, I sent him a message, asking if he was okay. His answer was short, just saying that he was fine and apologizing for not being able to talk
