It's Your Fault

"Here." Zoe gave Wolf the bathrobe she'd found in the room. She couldn't find any clothes, only the bathrobe.

Wolf took the bathrobe and put it on without speaking. And that surprised Zoe. She wondered why Wolf accepted it without protesting or teasing.

Wolf rarely misses the opportunity to tease her. He would say he didn't need clothes and would wait for Zoe to insist—or, ultimately, for Zoe to put the bathrobe on him. Wolf felt out of place, going against what was considered normal.

"Here." Wolf placed bacon and eggs on the table and then sat down to eat.

Another oddity is that Wolf would typically ask her to sit, and then they would start eating together.

"We'll head back to New York after breakfast," Wolf said. Even though it was very late, the food remained breakfast.

But Zoe didn't care about that mistake; she was more concerned with the suddenly changed plan. Even though they mostly "worked" in silence, given Wolf's previous attitude, they shouldn't be in a hurry to return.

    Max's message overshadowed Wolf's, compelling her to read it first.[Morning, sorry for messaging at an unusual time. I wanted this message for you to read when you first wake up. You must be so busy that you couldn't answer calls or read my messages since yesterday afternoon. If you're not too busy later in the day, can we meet? I want to congratulate you on your victory]An unimportant message. Zoe ignored it and read Wolf's response.[Offfice]A typo, but Zoe understood. Wolf said he was at the office. Out of three questions Zoe asked, Wolf only answered one.Disappointment made Zoe feel weak again, and she lay down on the carpet. The response meant nothing to her. Not addressing the most important matter.Zoe then closed her eyes, trying to remember the details of what actually happened in that cabin. Was she doing something to offend Wolf, or what?Zoe remembered that she only mentioned their cheap, precious kiss before Wolf left. And at that time, everything was fine. Wolf was s

    At first glance, Zoe knew it was Wolf's room because it was very similar to the workspace at Wolf's house.The room was empty, but Zoe saw Wolf's jacket and car keys on the table. She came to the right place. It's just not clear where Wolf is. And it's pointless to wander around looking for Wolf. Apart from disturbing whatever Wolf is doing, sooner or later he will return to take the keys and jacket.Zoe took both and placed them on the sofa. Waiting. She would be patient.***"I didn't know singing was a burden for you! How many times have I told you that recording means you have to maintain the quality of your voice?" Wolf stared at Iris, who nodded weakly.Her face appeared pale, undoubtedly due to fatigue. She had been in the studio from before midnight until now, at seven in the morning. It was also an unexpected schedule. Wolf advanced the recording to an earlier time without notice. And of course, Iris had to accept it. It wasn't the first time she had to adjust her schedule be

    "Don't cry..."Wolf grabbed a tissue from the table, eventually helping Zoe wipe her tears away."I'm sorry... forgive me..." Zoe sobbed."How come I'm the one who has to calm you down right now? I should be the one needing comfort." Despite grumbling, Wolf still helped Zoe wipe her tears and gently stroked her head.Wolf certainly felt that this was unfair. Earlier, he was angry and needed comforting and persuasion to let go of his anger. But in reality, he was the one who had to comfort Zoe. The injustice was glaring, but it was accepted and done automatically."Love is indeed very strange," mumbled Wolf while embracing Zoe, who was still crying on his chest."I didn't do anything. That man is disgusting. I just wanted to get close to him and get revenge. His life is too happy," Zoe continued explaining."Yes... yes, I understand." Wolf shook his head and eventually smiled wryly.Realizing that his anger saga was short-lived, similar to an anticlimactic short story that ends prematu

    "Should I wait here all day?!" Zoe panicked, staring at the door."That's not a bad idea; I'll prohibit anyone from entering." Wolf immediately agreed."But that'll take so long. I don't want to," Zoe hadn't suggested earlier. She was mentioning the worst-case scenario she didn't want."Why not? Do you have any plans?" Wolf raised an eyebrow."Nothing urgent."Zoe only planned to meet Tiana and Sara today, of course, to celebrate her victory. There's also Lili, who sent a message, but she won't be in New York until next week. When the final night arrived, Zoe's busyness abruptly ended."Then it's okay if you wait here. Just relax; no one will enter without my permission. No one will know you're here.""But...""And I have the perfect way to keep you from getting bored while waiting."Wolf raised Zoe's hoodie and was disappointed to see the shirt underneath. It would be more interesting if Zoe was only wearing the hoodie.SMACK!Zoe hit his hand."What are you doing? We're in the offic

    "For the song? Yes, I'll handle it myself. Can you still adjust my schedule?" Wolf's schedule was already very full, as he had managed four singers so far; adding one more would make it even busier."I don't know; I have to—""If you can't handle it, let Jacob take care of Iris." Wolf cut off Becca's objection. He was most willing to let go of Iris at the moment. Apart from his issues with Zoe, Wolf was also tired of dealing with her antics."No! Iris will go berserk!" Becca looked panicked, shaking her head."Let her be. If she wants to go berserk, tell her to come see me. Jacob is not a bad producer. He's lucky to get her." Wolf made it clear he wouldn't care about Iris's outburst."But why not have Ms. Moreau with Jacob instead? They already know each other." Becca suggested an idea she thought would be more peaceful, but seeing Wolf's piercing gaze, Becca knew she was wrong."Since when did you get to suggest to me which singer I manage?" Wolf asked.No one in the building dared t

    "Welcome to Wolf. I hope we can work well together after this," said Wolf in a very formal tone."Pfft!" Zoe laughed, of course."I'm not trying to tease or mock. I use the same welcoming speech for everyone," said Wolf, setting aside the contract."Then, because of the previous confidentiality issue, you should remember that when you're in this office, our relationship becomes strictly professional. Nothing more than a producer and singer," said Wolf."Is that true? Then what's this?" Zoe pointed to her hand, which Wolf hadn't let go of since they shook hands. Wolf even stroked it a few times.What Wolf was doing didn't match his words. Wolf chuckled and pulled her hand away, but he also bowed his head and kissed Zoe's lips."Do you also do this for every new singer? If so, I'll protest," teased Zoe."No, because none of them are my wives."The perfect comeback was enough to make Zoe blush."Also, we haven't processed the contract yet. So I still have time to do this." Wolf repeated

    "This is rubbish!" Iris threw away the list that Cleo had given her weeks ago."Oh? Why?" Cleo picked up the paper from the floor and checked it. It was a list of new artists and singers that Iris had requested yesterday."They're all terrible. Max won't be interested in them!" Iris exclaimed dismissively. Iris knew Max's taste well, and none of the names on the list fit his criteria.Max usually liked girls who looked innocent and beautiful, exuding pure beauty. But none of the names on the list were innocent girls. The artists and singers who joined Wolf in recent weeks were not really new.Most of them were singers and actresses who switched agencies or labels. They weren't fresh-faced newcomers. Max wouldn't be interested in them."You look again! There must be someone else you haven't written down!" Iris immediately accused Cleo of not doing her job properly. Cleo couldn't argue.Cleo took the paper and nodded. "Okay, I'll try to find out more later," Cleo said, tucking the pape

    Wolf cursed in surprise. Suddenly, someone forcefully opened his door."Are you so bored with life?!" Wolf scolded.Usually, Iris would be afraid of Wolf's outbursts and reprimands. The only person who could control Iris was indeed Wolf. But this time, Iris was truly furious. She immediately stood in front of Wolf and slammed her hand on the table."Why did you kick me out of the Big Four?! I fulfilled your wishes even though the schedule was intense!"Iris vented her anger; she remembered how Wolf had arbitrarily asked her to come at night and sing. Changing her schedule just like that. Iris felt unjust, as if she had already complied with Wolf's wishes."But did you comply when I asked you not to drink alcohol and smoke before recording?" Wolf asked.Iris seemed to be silent, as if swallowing her own tongue. That bad habit was still something she practiced on a regular basis.Wolf closed his laptop and looked at Iris."Do you know what the requirements are to stay in the Big Four? T

She blushed with emotion, only able to stand when Wolf helped her. Unfortunately, Wolf couldn't escort her to the stage.Luckily, Syanne's hand was there to assist her, followed by Jacob, who was closest to the stage, helping her navigate the stairs to reach the top.Zoe expressed her gratitude several times to the person presenting her award before finally standing in front of the microphone to deliver her speech.Zoe took a few deep breaths, wiping away tears, before finally being able to address the camera and the patiently waiting audience."This is something I never dreamed of, standing here and receiving this."

    Zoe did something that Wolf would not like. She wouldn't lie, but she would inform him later, once the task was complete. Zoe wants to handle this herself without anyone else's interference.Of course, it's not easy. She walks with an anxious heart. Zoe adjusts her sunglasses several times on her nose, while her other hand carries a beautiful pink flower and gift box.Zoe feels anxious, knowing that people will recognize her when she enters later. But she's resigned. It's not possible to hide her identity now, considering the person she's going to meet.Approaching the counter after filling out a form with the prisoner's name and number, Zoe submits it."Please wait over there. We'll call you," says the prison guard behind the counter.He stares at Zoe several times as another guard checks Zoe's belongings—making sure no contraband is smuggled, glancing to confirm—even reading her name on the form but doesn't comment.Relieved—because

    "Here." Wolf handed the cup to Zoe.Zoe wanted to take it, but her hands were still busy responding to messages on her phone."Cliff really doesn't have a girlfriend, does he?" Zoe asked."Hm? Why are you asking?" Wolf asked suspiciously."For Sara. She wanted to confirm this because she doesn't believe someone like Cliff is still single.Zoe sighed, showing the message Sara sent to her. Showing that she wasn't lying. She was indeed asking for Sara, not for herself."Not yet. According to Clay, he used to have one—a journalist or an MC, if I'm not mistaken. But they broke up when Cliff was about to move here. Either he moved and then they broke up, or they broke up and then he moved."Wolf just repeated Clay's words, of course. And now Zoe repeated them in the form of a message to Sara and sent it to reassure her."How do you know these details?" After sending the message and taking her cup, Zoe asked in amazement.

    "Should have been in jail..."Max denied reality once again. For him, Loria still couldn't possibly be Zoe because she should have been in jail."You're endlessly foolish!" Billy slammed the table and went berserk.He grabbed Max by the collar with his handcuffs. Of course, chaos ensued immediately, and shouts erupted as the police guarding the area rushed in to subdue Billy, pinning him to the ground.But evidently, Billy was truly furious with Max, as he continued to resist and curse at Max even while being held down."YOUR STUPIDITY KNOWS NO BOUNDS!""SILENCE!"The judge's thundering voice overshadowed Billy's outburst. Not only Billy fell silent, but also the journalists and spectators who were making noise."Once again, if anyone disturbs me, I will reschedule this trial!

    The prosecutor began with standard questions, asking about Sara's background—education, how long she had been a psychiatrist, and so on. Only after that did she mention Zoe."Since when has Ms. Zoe Anderson been your patient?" the prosecutor asked."For over a year," Sara replied clearly. Gone was the cheerful demeanor she usually wore when facing patients."Can you explain Ms. Anderson's condition at that time?""Zoe came with a desire to heal because she suffered severe trauma that was very visible and prevented her from leading a normal life.""Could you please explain more about that trauma?"Sara nodded calmly because everything matched the expectations given by Cliff."Zoe came in a state where she couldn't speak, but medical examinations showed that Zoe didn't have any physical injuries anymore. The absence of any disturbances in her nerves confirmed that her inability to speak was a result of PTSD. Severe trauma due to a bad incident

    "That's... Strange. You must be kidding!" Iris shook her head vigorously while staring at Zoe from head to toe, trying to recognize her as the same person she saw before with Max."Have I ever joked when talking to you?" Wolf replied flatly, pulling a chair for Zoe. The chair is furthest from Iris. She was still at a loss for words and kept staring at Zoe."Are you really Zoe Anderson?" Iris continued to stare at Zoe."Yes, before I changed my name to Loria Moreau, that was also my name." Zoe replied calmly. The apprehension that had plagued her earlier had vanished.The meeting with Iris might have been unexpected and almost annoying, but Zoe felt empowered, knowing that she was currently in control.Seeing Iris's surprise, Zoe felt satisfaction. A victory for successfully showing her new self to Iris. Zoe was no longer the disheveled individual she had encountered, who garnered disdain due to her perceived inferiority."That's impossible!

    Zoe smoothed her cream-colored skirt and blazer. Darcy's choice, so Zoe wouldn't appear intimidating or grim.She felt nervous, as she could see from a distance how journalists were crowding in front of the courthouse. They were undoubtedly waiting for the enigmatic figure of Zoe Anderson. There were no images of Zoe in the news because there was no documentation of Zoe's case.Due to her prior injuries and hospitalization, Zoe did not attend the trial as a suspect. No one recorded her face or bothered to find out at the hospital because the case clearly made her a suspect.Zoe also ran her fingers through her hair, which was back to being blonde. She wasn't wearing a wig today. It was the first time she would appear without her black hair, and honestly, it made Zoe even more nervous. It felt like she was removing the mask that had protected her. Zoe would be Zoe in front of everyone, no longer Loria.Wolf, who had been observing Zoe's nervousness, said, "Your be

    "He's trying to save himself! So cunning!" Wolf hissed irritably.It was clear from Iris's statement that she only wanted to save herself by blaming Max and Billy."She made them look like she was under pressure to hide the truth about Zoe. Iris then used that pressure as an excuse to justify all her strange actions. She hid from her mistakes by using mental health as an excuse." Sara shook her head, looking annoyed. She was obviously upset when someone used mental health as a lie."She managed to escape using a lifeboat before her ship really sank." Cliff looked at Iris, who continued to sob and cry amidst her words."It doesn't matter. Let it be," Zoe said, folding her arms and staring at the television without blinking."What do you mean, let it be? She's lying again!" Wolf also pointed to the television with a disapproving face."At least she has been honest, especially about me. Whatever she said makes things right; just let it be," Zoe repeated.

    "Why so fast?" Zoe stared at the summons she had received in panic.When Benson mentioned that she would receive a summons to attend court, Zoe assumed the trial would take place maybe around one or two months later, but it turned out to be only three days later and effective in two days."I think Benson waited until his file was complete before calling you. That's why now he just has to submit it to the court, and the schedule comes down immediately," Cliff explained. He took the letter from her hand to examine it."I only have to come once, right?"Zoe asked to confirm, as she really didn't want to attend the trial multiple times."Yes, that's why I asked to meet with the psychiatrist who treated you. I need to ask them to answer questions about your condition well. They have to give the right answers for the judge to grant the request," Cliff explained today's plan."I think they'll be here soon.
