Chapter 179

~ Zara’s POV~

We arrived at the company quickly and alighted from his car. Despite Snow’s calm demeanor as he walked beside me, I could feel the tension radiating off him. His jaw was tight, his blue eyes sharp with focus.

He couldn’t afford for his father to learn of this issue and the conditions of our marriage, especially now that it was affecting the company.

I adjusted my pace to keep up with him, my heels clicking softly against the polished floors as we entered the lobby. The faint hum of activity added to the sterile atmosphere of the cool air.

"She is with Taylor on the top floor," Snow said, his voice clipped. He gestured toward the elevator, his hand brushing the small of my back. "Let’s get this over with."

I nodded, doing my best to stay composed even as questions swirled in my mind.

The ride up was quiet even as Snow’s hand remained on my back. When we stepped off the elevator, a flustered Taylor greeted us, her sharp suit slightly disheveled and her usually composed expression tinged with worry.

"Alpha Snow, Lady Zara," she said quickly, her eyes darting between us. "She’s in the conference room."

Snow’s gaze didn’t waver. "Have the legal team prepped and ready. I want to handle this quickly and cleanly, while also putting her in a difficult position by providing proof that we canceled the event.

"Yes, sir," Taylor replied, motioning for us to follow her.

As we approached the conference room, I could hear raised voices—one frustrated and demanding, the other attempting to placate.

Snow frowned. "Do they think this is a marketplace of some sort or what?"

I intertwined our fingers and shook my head. "Don’t be rash. Imagine their shock."

Instead, Snow’s expression darkened the most. "That’s why you conform things as well." He sighed, his chest rising sharply. "Let’s go in."

Taylor pushed open the door, revealing a young woman seated at the long table. Her arms were crossed tightly over her chest, her expression defiant as she argued with one of the staff members.

The moment she saw Snow, her demeanor shifted. Her eyes widened, her posture stiffening.

"Finally," she said, her voice sharp but wavering slightly. "You’re here. Do you know how long I’ve been waiting?"

Snow stepped forward, keeping his expression cold. "I understand there’s been an issue. Let’s address it calmly."

The woman scoffed. "Calmly? Your company didn’t fulfill the agreement, and now I’m left with nothing! Do you know what I’ve been through?"

I moved closer, standing beside Snow. "We’re here to resolve this," I said evenly. "Let’s start with the facts."

The woman’s gaze flicked to me, her eyes narrowing slightly. "And you are?"

"Zara," I said simply.

"My wife," Snow chimed in.

Realization dawned on her face, her lips pressing into a thin line. "You’re the one he married," she said, her tone accusatory.

Snow’s hand brushed mine, a silent gesture of reassurance. "Let’s focus on the matter at hand," he said firmly.

"Let’s start with the basics. This matter doesn’t concern my company."

Your secretary made the call using the company’s phone. So naturally it does."

Snow glanced at Taylor and she shot him an apologetic look. Just before Snow could speak, I interjected. Having a similar problem, I knew what was wrong and how it weighed Snow down.
