“I’ve arrived, Mr. Radcliffe. See you later,” Amelia said as she stepped out of the elevator.
“Of course. Take care, Ms. Harlow.”
The elevator doors slid shut, cutting off Amelia’s retreating figure.

Vince stood there, lost in thought. The gentle smile on his face slowly faded, replaced by a look of intrigued appraisal.
Amelia, the former wife of the Rowe Group’s CEO.
That detail was far more explosive than her sudden appointment as design director.
Judging from Ethan’s relentless behavior earlier, the divorce had clearly ended on very bad terms.
A discarded ex–wife of the Rowes, yet now she had resurfaced as Stardale Group’s design director.
Who S
backing her?
Vince’s mind began to race.
He had come from humble beginnings, climbing step by step to his position as marketing manager through sheer ability and sharp judgment. His survival had always depended on a keen sensitivity to power dynamics and personal connections.
At the same time, in the CEO’s office on the top floor.
The near–chaotic confrontation at the lobby entrance was quickly reported by the front desk to Tim.
“Ethan Rowe from Rowe Group? Harassing our newly appointed design director at the entrance?” Tim’s brow furrowed immediately after hearing the report.
He knew one thing clearly. Nothing could go wrong with Amelia on his watch.
“Pull up the entrance surveillance footage. I want to see,” Tim ordered.
Moments later, high–definition footage appeared on the large screen in front of him.
Ethan’s loss of composure, Amelia’s anger, and Vince’s timely intervention played out in full, frame by

“Is she settling in all right today? Did you give her too much to handle?” Mason asked.

“Relax. I didn’t assign her any concrete tasks today. Just had her get familiar with the environment and the team. What, feeling protective already?”
“Don’t talk nonsense,” Mason replied curtly. “I’m just concerned she might be under too much pressure.”
“Then you really don’t plan to come see her yourself any time soon?”
There was a brief silence on the other end, followed by Mason’s faintly helpless chuckle. “If I show up now, it’ll only make her feel more pressured. That wouldn’t be good for her.”
Tim sighed inwardly, then deliberately changed his tong, drawing things out. “Oh? You’re being this considerate. Aren’t you worried about trouble on the home front? Let me tell you, Amelia is very popular at the company. Your potential rivals are already lining up Are you really that unconcerned?”
Another long silence followed.
Tim could practically picture Mason frowning slightly.
After a while, Mason’s voice came back, lower than before. “Explain it to me properly.”
At 5:30 in the afternoon, as the workday ended, people began leaving the office one after another.

Amelia organized the files on her desk and shut down her computer.
Ethan’s appearance had unsettled her, but fortunately, the work environment and her new colleagues were better than she had expected.
She planned to head downstairs and take a taxi home.
Just then, her phone lit up with a new message from Mason.
“I’m here. Walk forward two intersections. I’ll be waiting under the big tree at the corner.”
Amelia couldn’t help smiling at the message.
“You came to pick me up? Isn’t that a bit high–profile? Aren’t you afraid of being seen?”
She knew Mason’s status well. His car parked near the company would definitely attract attention,
His reply came quickly.
“Don’t worry. I’m in the company garage. I picked the most low–key Volvo I could find.
“Nothing expensive No one will suspect anything”
“Alright Wait for me

“Were you planning to take the subway? If you don’t mind, I’m heading the same way. I could give you a ride.”
The offer sounded perfectly natural.
Yet Amelia declined almost without hesitation.
“No, thank you, Mr. Radcliffe,” she said politely.
She raised her hand and pointed toward the street corner not far away.
“My boyfriend is coming to pick me up.”
Boyfriend?
