Gemana was still barzing with excitement, completely aware of the emotional rollercoaster Brian was going through
As she flipped through the files, she answered casually.
“Cali’s string really well. She can walk and is back to meeting clients to present design proposals‘
As a fashion designer, a lot of her jobs was about brainstorming ideas while keeping the client’s needs in mind:
And since they had just discussed this, Cali was available at the moment.
friam’s mind sparked with a thonglu.
“I’ve been comidering loving the staff wear uniforms at work, and I was thinking of asking Ms. Call for help with the design. I’m not sure, though would you help me out and may be pull some strings““.
The uniform design was already covered in the company budget.
But the previous designer had poor taste, and the employees hated it.
After some power struggles with his siblings, everyone had neglected this detail, leaving the staff to wear whatever they wanted
Now that he was i
as in charge, he was determined to change the uniforms.
Gemma arrived at his car and replied, “I can ask Cals, but how she arranges it depends on her client schedule.”
Brian’s true intentions were never about the uniforms. He flashed a charming smile, aiming to relieve Gemma of any pressure.
No rush, whenever M. Cali has time.”
Gemma nodded, putting away the files and texting quickly,
“Actually, she’s free. Let’s head up, and you can discuss things with her.”
Gemma wasn’t involved in the design work–she wasn’t a fashion expert–so it was better for her to step side and let Cali handle it directly.
Brian paused for a moment.
Didn’t she just invite him upstairs?
But he thought nothing of it.
Now that she had a reason to bring him up, it made sense to reinforce it
He opened the car door, smiling again. “Well, this time, I should thank you.”
Gemma sat down, her attention already back on the documents. She mumbled. “No problem. Helping each other out
Brian glanced at her serious face and didn’t interrupt, starting the car himself.
Nearby.
Under the darkened sky.
Marcus stood, watching Gemina get in the car.
Just as he was about to approach, Brian revved the engine and drove off into the night.
His fists clenched tight, trembling with anger. Veins stood out on the back of his hand as he ground his teeth
The past few days, he’d been busy preparing for the wedding ceremony.
There had been no proposal between him and Gemma before, which was something she regretted.
So, after catching the blood amber, he began making preparations.
He’d even agreed to Mabel’s request to become a doctor just to keep things peaceful and focus on his plans.
Today, he had been invited by a friend from the hospital, specifically to discuss Mabel’s job application,
Normally, his assistant would handle this, but with Gemma here, he had a legitimate reason to show up, and he wasn’t going to turn it down.
What he didn’t expect was clus-
Brian, that jerk, clearly hoped to take advantage of the situation.
However, Gemma sat in the back seat, not the front.
Which suggested their relationship wasn’t that close.
He let out a quiet sigh of relief.
But deep inside, it still hum,
He couldn’t stand seeing Gemma with any other man.
Even though he knew she wouldn’t be interested in Brian, the sight still made him furious.

After all, he knew for sure now that Gemma had no feelings for Brin, but back then, Gemma must have truly believed he was with some
It was all Mabel’s fault
She was an actress, and to stir up bazz, she had done everything in her power, including hiring public relations teams to twist their relationship.
If it weren’t for Mabel’s meddling, Gemma would never have doubted him.
Any numors could’ve been easily explained away by hân, but Mabel ruined his credibility with Gemma

The realization hit him like a slap to the face. He quickly pulled his arm away from Mabel’s hold.

Mabel’s hand gripped air, confiased and disappointed.
She stared at her empty hand eyes flashing with a cold glint
But just as quickly, her expression softened back into a smil
“You used to abays hold me like this. Now, you’re acting shy.”
Marcus entered the hospital, his mind still on the past.
Mabel’s words reminded him of the day when Gemma had walked into their hospital room and seen thein together.
What had she been thinking?
He tried to reall the look on Gemma’s face
Her bloodshot eyes, the coldness that had crept into her expression.
His heart sank, the guile hitting him like a tidal wave.
If only he had explained back then-
Would things be different now!
“Max, you don’t have to act so distant. I’ve already told Dr. Feron. I graduated from a prestigious university, but I have no experience, so I’m willing to start as an intern,” Mabel spoke up.
Marcus snapped out of his thoughts, mustering a distracted. “Mm,” as he hurried ahead.
Not caring that Mabel had already joged in order to catch up with him.
“Max, are you unhappy“”
Max was secretive lately, like he was planning something big, and her heart couldn’t help but clench up.
“it the company……”
Marcus suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Mabel,
ggling to keep up with his pace, stumbled slightly, bumping into his back.
Her nose ached from the impact.
She immediately rubbed her face, eyes wide and filled with unspoken tears, the kind of look that could break anyoor’s heart.

Marcus didn’t even flinch. He spoke in a tone he’d never used before, cool and serious.
“Don’t ask too mapy questions about the company or about me.”
Mabel froze
She couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
Just a few months ago. Marcus had been thuiled to love her back and had even mentioned bringing her into the company as vice president. Now, though.. he was treating her like this?
