Hearing this, Pearl looked utterly defeated. She forced a strained smile. “No, it was me. I wanted some water and lost my grip on the glass. Mrs. Sanders, Chloe has plans with her friends, so I need to drop her off. We’ll be taking our leave.”

“What’s wrong?” Kaia knew her assistant’s habits perfectly. That look meant she had something on her mind.

Before Kaia could finish, her phone rang. It was a call from her daughter’s smartwatch.

Kaia’s heart instantly ached. She looked up at Laura. “My daughter is waiting for me to come home. Let’s call it a night.”

Laura instantly understood the reason behind Kaia’s restraint. As someone unmarried and childless, she couldn’t fully grasp the lengths a mother would go to protect her child. No matter how toxic the people around her were, Kaia just wanted to preserve a clean, peaceful world for her daughter.

“Right!” Laura nodded, then quickly apologized. “Dr. Chavez, look at my temper. I talked too much again. Please don’t be mad at me.”

Kaia smiled. “I’m not. Don’t worry about it.”

“When Wendy came to apologize to me last time, she looked like she had swallowed a bug. Thanks for having my back, Dr. Chavez,” Laura said brightly.

“You’re my team. I wasn’t about to let you get slapped for nothing,” Kaia said softly.

Taking the elevator down to the basement parking garage, Kaia sat in her car and rubbed her eyes. It turned out that when the pain reached its absolute peak, there were no tears left to cry

Taking a moment to compose herself, she pictured her daughter waiting patiently on the steps for her return. She cleared her mind of the suffocating mess and focused entirely on the drive home.

Back in the VIP suite, Noelle leaned against the headboard while Elaine had the estate’s chef deliver dinner. A television played softly in the background.

Suddenly, an entertainment news channel aired the viral clip of her dancing and falling.

The host narrated the event with a mix of playful gossip and

faux-seriousness.

“When Aethelstan’s executive Noelle Lawrence fell during her performance, it looked absolutely agonizing. Fortunately, the CEO of The Sanders Conglomerate, Finnian Sanders, happened to be on site. He immediately rushed forward, scooped her into his arms, and rushed her to the hospital. Our reporters are currently staking out the building, and we’ve heard Ms. Lawrence is in stable condition. I’m sure everyone has rewatched this specific moment several times. The dynamic between Ms. Lawrence and Mr. Sanders has sparked a wave of speculation. Are they just in-laws? Close friends? We’ve also heard they were childhood sweethearts who practically grew up together. In such a complex web of relationships, one has to wonder if their bond has transcended…

Elaine’s face darkened drastically, and she aggressively jabbed the power button on the remote.

The hospital room fell into instant silence.
