The week before New Year's arrived, bringing the festive sound of distant firecrackers popping outside the window.
Noelle paced back and forth in her room, her anxiety skyrocketing.
When she saw those two words written in Finnian's own handwriting, she knew she would never step foot into the Sanders family again. She had completely lost the man who once promised to protect her forever.
Over the past few days, she had reached out to all her contacts and connections, trying to get a new job in the research industry, but everyone politely declined. She could faintly sense the invisible pressure forcing them to reject her.
Noelle thought about it carefully. She knew Kaia's personality—she was aloof and focused purely on her work. Even if Kaia hated her, she wouldn't waste time trying to ruin her.
The only logical explanation was Finnian pulling strings behind the scenes.
He was the only one with enough power to blacklist her from the entire industry.
Was he really going to be this ruthless?
Was he shutting her out completely just to prevent her from causing trouble for Kaia in the future?
Noelle was always someone who valued high returns. From a young age, she understood the importance of leverage.
Now that she had lost Finnian as her safety net, she urgently needed to find a new one.
Dr. Gordon Hayes was a reliable backup, but he couldn't provide the luxurious lifestyle she craved.
After mulling it over, Noelle remembered there was another high-quality catch swimming in her Fish Pond.
On the afternoon of the week before New Year's, Noelle picked up her phone and dialed a number.
