Zachary’s voice was calm but held a subtle edge when he summoned Lola to his office, “Lola, come to my
office.
“All right.”
With a quick glance in the mirror, Lola tried to calm her nerves. She hoped Zachary didn’t realize it was her who had drugged him.
Taking a deep breath, she rose and walked toward his ollice. After knocking twice, she pushed the door open, standing in front of his desk. “Mr. Fuller, you wanted to see me?”
Zachary barely looked at her as he picked up a document and placed it in the center of the desk. “This is your transfer order. I’m relocating you to a branch company. What are your thoughts?”
Though he asked for her opinion, it was clear that Zachary was not offering a real choice. Lola’s expression froze, disbelief flashing across her face. “Mr. Fuller, why? Why am I being transferred all of a sudden?”
Liking someone wasn’t a mistake, Zachary knew that much. But drugging him? That was a line she had. crossed.
He leaned back in his chair, fingers tapping lightly on the desk. “I don’t need to explain. If you’re unwilling, I can arrange a transfer to another department.”
Lola felt the panic rise. She knew there were no open positions in the other departments. Staying meant accepting a demotion, but moving to a branch company meant losing proximity to Zachary, to power,
He had found out.
“I don’t understand what you mean, Mr. Fuller,” she tried one last time, playing dumb.
Zachary gave her a hard look, pointing to the document. “The transfer takes effect next week. Make sure you hand over your work this week.”
Realizing there was no way out, Lola’s voice cracked. “Mr. Fuller, I… I made a mistake. Please, give me. another chance. I swear it won’t happen again.”
“Get out,” Zachary ordered coldly.
Lola’s face twisted in frustration as she grabbed the papers and made for the door. But just before she left, she turned back, her voice laced with bitterness. “Why does Lenora get to stay, but not me? Why is she allowed to be here without any issues?”
“There’s no need for me to explain anything to you,” Zachary replied dismissively.
Lola paled, unable to hide the hurt. Without another word, she left the office.
As she exited, Miles turned to Lenora, who was standing nearby. “Ms. Wilkin, you can go in now.”
Lenora approached the door, but Lola blocked her path. “Ms. Wimble, do you need something?” Lenora asked, her tone amused yet indifferent.

Lola’s eyes scanned Lenora, and when she saw the faint love bite on the side of Lenora’s neck, a wave of jealousy surged through her. Her fists clenched tightly as she hissed. “Lenora, just you
She shot Lenora a fierce glance before striding away with the documents in her hand.
Lenora watched her leave, a faint smile playing on her lips. She knew all too well how Lola felt Watching all her efforts benefit her rival, of course, she’d be furious.
Lenora knocked softly before entering Zachary’s office “Mr. Fuller.”
Upon seeing her, Zachary paused his work, leaning back in his chair and giving her a slow smile. “What is
Lenora stood in front of Zachary’s desk, delivering her work report. After finishing, Zachary, with a calm voice, said, “You can make the decision
“Mr. Fuller, 11l be heading out first, Lenora replied, preparing to leave.
“Wait.” Zachary called out, stopping her.
“Is there anything else?” Lenors turned back to face him.
“Come here”
Obediently, Lenora walked over, but as soon as she gotelose, Zachary grabbed her arm. With one swift motion, she found herself utting on his lap Shocked, Lenora jumped, her hands bracing against Zachary’s shoulders to steady herself
“What are you doing? We’re in the office, you know?” she asked, her voice rising in surprise
“It’s nothing” Zachary replied casually, a playful unde mugging at his lips. “I just felt like holding you.” He leaned in, pressing a soft kiss on her forehead before briefly pecking her lips.
“Mr. Fuller!” Lenora protested trying to dodge his advances. The thought of leaving the office with swollen lips made her uneasy. She knew rumors wouldspread like wildfire.
Zachary, reading her thoughts, reassured her. “What are you afraid of? This is my office. No one would just barge in. And even if someone does, we might as well make it public.”
“No way,” Lenora quickly objected
“Why not?” Zachary’s expression darkened as his eyes searched hers.
Lenora bit her lip, her voice softening “I don’t want to go public right now.
“What are you worried about! There’s nothing between Susanna and me anymore I promise you, I will keep my word”
Lowering her gaze, Lenora responded, “It’s not about that. I simply don’t want to. Now let me go–I have to get back to work.”
Zachary sighed heavily. “Fine. I’ll let you go. But only you call me hubby.”
Lenora looked at him incredulously “Are you out of your mind? Let go of me.”

“Behave,” Zachary teased, tightening his hold around her. “Call me “hubby, and I’ll release you.”
“Zachary, are you seriously acting like a child right now” Lenora couldn’t believe his immaturity.
“Just pretend that I am.” he said, smiling mischievously
Lenora was exasperated. “Fine. If I call you ‘Hubby‘, will you let me go?”
“Of course,” Zachary assured her. “I keep my promises
After a moment of hesitation, Lenora softly murmured, “Hubby, is that good enough?”
Zachary leaned in. “I didn’t hear you. Speak up.”
“Zachary!” Lenora’s patience was wearing thin.
“I’m listening.” Zachary responded, amused.
“Hubby!” Lenora said, her voice louder this time. “Happy now?”
Zachary grinned but shifted the topic abruptly. “By the way, there’s something I need to tell you.
Don’t change the subject!” Lenora protested, pushing against his chest. “Let me go now.”

“It’s important., Zachary continued calmly. “The visa has already been processed. We’re leaving on the thirtieth.”
“All right, now can you let me go?”
Satisfied, Zachary loosened his grip, and Lenora quickly got up, almost fleeing from the office.
As Zachary watched her retreating figure, a smile played at the corners of his lips. He picked up his phone when it buzzed with a text alert. It was from Susanna.
Susanna: Zack, will you come to see me during the National Day holiday?
Zachary stared at the message for a moment before replying briefly: I’m busy. Focus on your filming.
Susanna: I miss you a lot.
He read the message but didn’t respond. Susanna, noticing his silence, sent another text after a while: Zack, I regret it. I shouldn’t have broken up with you. It is the greatest regret of my life.
His response was curt: Move on.
But Susanna wasn’t done: Zack, I really can’t do it. When close my eyes, all I see is your face. Every night, I dream of you–of our time in university. How wonderful it would be if time could stay frozen in that moment.
Zachary turned off his phone without replying. But soon enough, a call came through–again from Susanna. He stared at the screen, debating whether to answer. Just before the call was about to end, he picked up.
“Zack! I thought you call,” Susanna’s joyful voice burst through the phone.

Zachary sighed softly, “Susanna, I just wanted to remind you. Don’t dwell on the past. Life moves forward”
“But Zack, I truly loved you. I really did. Can’t you come see me? Just once?”
“Focus on your filming.” he replied, his voice steady. “There’s no point in rehashing old memories. If there’s nothing else, don’t call again.” And with that, he ended the call.
Leaning back in his chair, Zachary closed his eyes, trying to sort through his feelings.
Do I love Lenora? Did I love Susanna?
He realized that every action he took stemmed from his innermost desires. His heart had leaned toward Lenora, even if it wasn’t love just yet, there was definitely a strong fondness.
Otherwise, how could their marriage have lasted three years?
As for Susanna, perhaps he had truly loved her once, long ago. But after reuniting, all that remained was guilt, and he had mistaken that guilt for love.
Thankfully, he had come to his senses before his marriage to Lenora was ruined by his confusion.
