Chapter 31 Advice
“Don’t stress over it. Nobody’s perfect–we all mess up now and then,” Noah stated, his voice steady, betraying not a trace
of emotion.
Kyla’s smile faltered, her heart sinking as she realized he hadn’t denied her assumption about his reason for being upset.
A sense of alarm echoed through her thoughts–Noah’s affection for Sadie was evidently more profound than she’d
anticipated.
No, she couldn’t stand by and watch Sadie claim everything that was hers!
Masking her turmoil, Kyla adopted a more compassionate demeanor. “Even so, I should show Sadie my sincerity through
actions. Since Sadie hasn’t been feeling well, perhaps it’s best if she takes some time off to recover, don’t you think?”
Noah paused, considering her suggestion with a thoughtful frown before nodding in agreement. “Alright, we’ll follow your

In the bustling secretarial office, Sadie was immersed in her tasks, organizing piles of documents with diligent focus.
It was her duty day, and she was responsible for compiling all the office documents and delivering them to Noah.

The immediate waft of perfume enveloped Sadie, causing her to lift her gaze abruptly. There, framed in the doorway, stood
Kyla, her features enhanced by flawless makeup.
Dressed in an impeccably tailored Chanel suit, Kyla exuded an aura of sophistication. Yet, her smug expression was
particularly glaring.
Sadie’s hand hung suspended in the air, her face draining of color.
Kyla, oblivious to Sadie’s reaction or choosing to ignore it, strode confidently to the heart of the secretarial office. With a
brisk clap that sliced through the murmurs, she beamed a practiced smile and announced, “Everyone, may I have your attention, please?”
The office fell into a curious hush, all eyes drawn to Kyla.
