Sasha’s POVI was bored in the ward, with nothing to do except contact Jared to discuss work.In my idle moments, I played with my phone and scrolled through my Instagram feed.There was some news about Valentino on my IG, and I found myself subconsciously paying attention to him, feeling inexplicably guilty afterwardI checked Valentino's Instagram page. He didn't post frequently; it seemed he rarely used it for personal updates, mostly sharing company news.Feeling bored, I was about to close Instagram when suddenly, the door to the ward opened. In walked a pair of slender legs, and our eyes met—Valentino's and mine.My heart skipped a beat.The thought of Valentino's return flashed through my mind.What does he want now?Nervous inexplicably, my expression betrayed my flustered state. I had expected to see Valentino, but now, I didn't want to face the man standing before me.He seemed terrifying, someone not to be trifled with.The three-year contract suddenly felt daunting. Would

Sasha's POV As I walked through the company, I noticed how everyone greeted me with respect and, in some cases, apprehension. It seemed my absence of just a few days had elevated my presence to something almost intimidating.Entering the chairman's office, I found Jared immersed in his work, glancing up as I approached. "Sasha, you're here?" He said, surprised to see me back at work so soon."Yes," I nodded, curious. "What's going on with everyone in the company? They look at me like I'm a ghost."Jared explained, “Valentino dealt with Mr. Joe firmly. Word spread and people are cautious no, fearing they might meet the same fate as Mr. Joe."Thinking of Mr. Joe, my frown deepened. "What happened to Mr. Joe?""He's in prison," Jared replied. "They gathered evidence of his illegal dealings. He's looking at a long sentence.""Good," I muttered, my teeth gritted. Mr. Joe had almost assaulted me. Prison seemed like a fitting punishment for him.After a brief chat with Jared, I delved into

Sasha’s POV"You're lying! Did I seduce your husband? Where is he? Do you want him to come here and confirm that? You can't just accuse me of seducing other people's boyfriends. My boyfriend here is proof, and his injury is proof!" she yelled, pointing below the drunk man.Laughter erupted around us.Even though it was clear I was the one being wronged, the situation was still amusing. This woman and her drunk boyfriend were quite the pair.I could see that everyone knew I wasn't the one who had seduced him. They were all waiting to see how I would handle this.Emilia, clearly angry, shot back, "You believe everything your boyfriend says? Are you that naive? It's obvious your man harassed my friend first, and she defended herself. We didn't even accuse him of assault, but you're here causing trouble for us.""Look, everyone, they admit it! They hit my boyfriend!" The woman with heavy makeup suddenly got excited. "If you hit someone, you have to pay. This is a serious injury for a man.

Sasha’s POVI felt like I had endured a catastrophe. Suddenly, I needed to know who Sandra was.Why did Valentino keep mentioning her name whenever he abused me?It seemed likely Sandra resembled me in some way, or he wouldn't accuse me of impersonating her.One thing was clear: Sandra had deeply wronged Valentino, evoking both his love and his hate.The next morning, I woke up feeling like my bones might shatter. Despite my weakness, I muster the strength to rise from the bed.I see my mistakes and how I allowed my naivety to take over. The contract with Valentino was just the beginning.From Valentino's demeanor yesterday, it's clear he harbors both deep hatred and love for Sandra. I must be the one he's chosen to replace her.I take a deep breath, trying to steady myself, but end up retching instead.Examining the bruises and ambiguous marks on my body, I grimace. I gingerly step off the bed, only to find my legs buckling beneath me, forcing me to sit on the floor.My legs are like

Sasha's POVA few minutes later, as soon as I leave to handle some matters, Jared immediately calls Dr. Luke."Luke, I need to ask you something.""What is it?" Dr. Luke sounds surprised to receive a call from Valentino's special assistant."My boss, do you think he might have a mental illness?" Jared hesitates, then asks directly. "After Sandra left, he seemed greatly affected. Could he have suffered psychological trauma? Should he seek treatment?"On the other end of the line, Dr. Luke bursts out laughing. "Jared, you have quite the reflex arc. Why didn't you think your boss had a heart condition from the start and only brought this up now?""It's not me who brought it up—" Jared starts to say before stopping himself."Let me guess, was it Sasha, your current boss?" Dr. Luke chuckles knowingly."Dr. Luke, you're sharp. Please don't tell the boss," Jared says earnestly."To be honest, your boss does have some quirks, but his condition is stable. It's nothing serious. I'm more concer
