As EXAT’s building came into sight, Noah's grip on the steering wheel tightened a bit, and he drove into the parking lot, looking at Genevieve, who sat next to him without saying anything. A moment later, the two walked into the company lobby, and the sight of Genevieve grabbed the employee's attention. “She did such a hideous thing to force her way to the top. Now see where that's gotten her?” One of the employees murmured. Another coworker whispered to him, “I heard that the chairman's wife doesn't like her for what she did to Glenn. It's only been a few days since she signed with the company and looked at the damage she caused.” “Yes, the scandal has taken a toll on the company.” Another employee added, nodding. “It feels like sorcery that Genevieve is still allowed to work with the company.” The whispers and gossip continued to follow the couple everywhere they passed until they got into the elevator and headed for the second floor. When the doors parted, Genevieve and Noa

The black glass structure of the fifty-foot-long skyscraper was calm until the glass door slide opened. A security ran inside, shouting, “The boss is back! Dean Black is in the parking lot.” Immediately the lobby grew stiff with tension as the employees stood up straight. Their eye stared at the ceiling, and their hands clasped behind their backs. The place grew dead like a graveyard, and no one dared move from their position or blink even when the glass doors slid open again, and Noah stepped into the lobby. His long coat back swished through the air, and his shoes clicked against the floor as he made his way to the elevator with a dark shade on his face. As he walked past his employees, they bowed slightly, greeting, “Good morning, boss.” The cold expression on his face didn't fade as Noah walked across the lobby with Maxwell and other security details. When Noah finally entered the elevator, the mumbling began among his employees. “The lone wolf is back.” One of them whisper

Walking onto the balcony, Mr. Stark frowned at how disturbed his wife looked as she sat there, staring into nothingness. "What is it now?" Mr. Stark's voice snapped her out of her daze and he saw her eyes flick towards him. "You have been distracted all night, and now, you got that look on your face that I know way too well. Is this about Noah?" "Yes," Mrs. Stark whispered. "Honey," "Do you know that Noah is not legally married to Genevieve, and yet, he's willing to stand by her side and ruin himself-" "He lied?" "Rhodes told me everything yesterday. He's been deceiving us this entire time!" With a hesitant stare, Mr. Stark approached his wife, held her shoulder, and squeezed it, saying, "If that's the case, Noah is not bound to her legally, and yet, he's willing to stand with her. Shouldn't that prove that he truly loves Genevieve?" "What are you saying?" Mrs. Stark stared at him, wide-eyed. "Should we allow that girl to just ruin him and our family's reputation?" "No. But we

Unable to take another step, Leo stood frozen, listening to the muffled yet stern words exchanged between Mrs. Stark and Noah. The words stung his young ears, and his innocent eyes began to well up with tears. He couldn't understand the full extent of the conversation, but he sensed the tension in the air, so he listened further. From beyond the door, Mrs. Stark's voice continued, carrying a tone of authority and disappointment, "You've been playing a dangerous game. You've allowed this charade to go on long enough, and it's not fair to Genevieve and Leo. You need to end this now before it gets out of hand." "I know what I'm doing. I can handle this. We'll sort it out." Noah's voice responded, quieter but with an underlying anger. There was a pause, and then Mrs. Stark's reply was sharp, "You will soon get engaged to Glenn, for heaven's sake. You can't continue this deceitful act with Genevieve and Leo. It's time to end this farce and be with the woman you're supposed to marry." Af

Glancing over at Genevieve, Noah paused, seeing the look of guilt in her eyes, knowing that she had already started to blame herself, and he gave her hand a tender squeeze before saying, "We... Genevieve and I were arguing. It was about us, our relationship. It got pretty intense, and Leo witnessed it all."Reaching for his notebook, Dr. Daniel listened attentively, nodding with understanding as he wrote down and then inquired gently, "And how bad was this argument?" "It was about us breaking up. Leo, he... he didn't want that..." Noah said as his expression shifted, a mix of regret and concern crossing his face.With a pause, Dr. Daniel's gaze softened as he observed Noah before he asked, "What is your relationship with Leo like?""I have been a father figure to him since his mother and I got together. We love each other as a father and son do... He... he means everything to me." Noah said, feeling Genevieve hand stiffened in his.Immediately, Dr. Daniel nodded, resting back in his
