Quinn's gaze shifted upwards as a familiar silhouette sauntered past the door, the lingering scent of their
perffilling the room. She found herself involuntarily holding her breath.
It was Getty.Getty, a face well-recognized within the company, made her entrance without a single soul daring to
stop her.
She had ventured into the CEO's office, crossing paths with Galen, who had directed her to this location. Without
a moment's hesitation, Getty pushed open the imposing doors to the director's office and confidently strode in.
As she entered, her eyes immediately landed on Alexander, seated behind his desk."Alexander!" Getty's voice
echoed in the room, her emotions a tumultuous mix of delight and fury.
She was delighted at the realization that Alexander hadn't been dismissed, but had instead ascended to the
director's position.
Fury, however, clouded her joy, directed at Alexander for his deception. Had she not been so resolute in her
feelings, or so deeply in love with him, she might have severed their connection by now.
At the sound of Getty's voice, Alexander lifted his gaze, "How did you cin here?""Weren't you supposed to
have resigned? | cto confirm that! It turns out you lied to me!"
Getty's voice trembled with visible upset, her bag slamming onto his desk with a loud thud.Few, if any, dared to
address Alexander in such a manner, let alone slam objects onto his desk. But for Getty, this behavior was
simply par for the
course.
Leaning back slightly in his chair, Alexander responded with a bland tone, "What did | lie to you about?""You said
you resigned!""l did resign."Getty was taken aback, her frustration evident as she retorted, "And you said you

her. He simply hadn't disclosed the full extent of his circumstances.
After a moment of simmering anger, Getty's expression softened. She leaned gently into Alexander, her arm
wrapping around his as she murmured, "Then why didn't you tellthat you're now the director?" Alexander
didn't push her away; instead, he wrapped his arms around her waist, a small smile playing on his lips, "You
didn't ask.""...""Let's not dwell on this. I'm just glad to see that you're safe and sound." Alexander looked down at
her, silent, waiting for her to continue.
Getty broke the silence, "Actually, Alexander, there's something else | wanted to talk to you about.""What is
it?""You must have seen the news. | don't know who leaked it, but you've got to deal with it.
Otherwise, I'm going to be roasted."Getty tilted her head back, her red lips pouting as she looked at him with a
playful whine.Alexander raised an eyebrow, "What do you wantto do about it?"
Grinning, Getty said, “It's simple. Our

to let everyone know that their

thoughtful. After a drag, the smoke

"I can't go."The smile on Getty's lips
froze as she frowned, asking, "Why
