Sylvie woke up hours later to find herself in her bedroom. Kage was seated by the window, holding a glass of
wine, staring outside. But he knew when she was awake and turned to her.. "How're you feeling?" His voice was
cold.
She touched her neck, cracking it. "I feel much better."
Realization set in. "How did you know | was in trouble? L... texted Westley. Did he show up?"
Kage was silent for sseconds before he replied. "You texted me."
No way. Sylvie furrowed her brows. Reaching for her phone which was close to her on the bed, she checked her
inbox and was shocked to know she'd texted Kage, not Westley. For God's sake, how did she make sign a
mistake?

"Thank you," she she uttered genuinely, dropping her gaze to the bed.
She didn't In't get a response in seconds.

Seriously, Sylvie. | thought you had sdignity?
Her brows furrowed at his question. She lifted her gaze from the he'd to look at him.
"You cheating on Westley. You do know that, don't you?"
"What're you......
"The other day, it was with Lancelot in the office. Of course, you cup with sdumb excuse ofbeing
the cause. So, how do you explain hanging out with today's psychotic man? Do you think | wouldn't know who he
is? That he works for Pulse-Wave? Seriously? Of f all the people to flirt with it, it had to be my enemy? What is
wrong with you?"
"Nothing! T There's e's nothing wrong with me, okay? You're getting it all wrong!"
On, am He stood up. "How can you even be pregnant and do all of these with so many men? What kind of a
mother do you plan to be?"
"Oh, am I?" He
Stop saying nonsense, Kage; you're starting to get on my nerves!
"Well,
you've been getting on my nerves all this time! Cause sometimes, | look at you, and | don't even recognize the
woman | was married to. Or maybe it's this way 'cause | never really married you from the depth of my heart.
Sylvie's eyes were rimming with red now. She looked at him and wished she could stam his head against the wall
just so he could stop talking. His words got to her so much they made her feel stupid.
Kage wasn't thinking clearly. All he could see was his pregnant ex-wife who slept around. Why couldn't she be

He turned around, heading to the door.
"Do you even know why | was with Brian?" Her words halted him "Or you think I'd hang out with guys | don't
trust? If | trusted him, why would | send that text?"

"What the hell are you saying?" He turned angrily to her, losing his patience.
"What I'm saying is, | didn't go there for fun. Brian was someone | knew fork my past, and seeing that he worked
for Pulse Wave, | thought | could get something out of him - something that has to do with the bunch!" was three
seconds before Kage's brows lowered, confusion shadowing his face.

"When | was under the bed. | overhead you on the phone. | thought oh, Brian knows me, and he's been trying to

to him and ask a few questions? Maybe they'd be helpful to Kage," a tear slid down her cheek. "How was |
supposed to know that the ba**d would drugand try to hurt me? How exactly was | supposed to know?"
Kage was speechless now, wrapping his head sound the possibilities. It hardly made sense, but why would she
do that?
She tore herself away from the bed, wiping her face. "I guess | was s**d for trying to help. Afterall, Kage Hawkins
doesn't need anyone's help. He's too powerful and will always get things sorted himself." Guilt stabbed him hard
in the chest. Recalling all the terrible things he said to her... Oh, God.
She walked past him, opening the door. "You have to leave, | need to be alone." She stared at an empty space,
holding the
door open.

guilt
washed | over him. He held her free hand dangling by her side. "Sylvie, Im... Can we just talk about it?"
Of course, he was never going to apologize. Kage never apologized.
"| said leave!" She snapped. "Else, I'll leave this house myself and not return for days!"
|
He pinched his brows, wishing things had turned out a little different. But how could he have known she'd ever
try to help? That was so unlike Sylvie..
| didn't know, okay?" He was slowly walking out. "Con. Sylvir, have you ever done anything to help? |
couldn't have..."
"Perhaps, all the harsh words you said tocould've been questions. Maybe then, you'd have understood my
reasons, She glared hatefully at him.
He sighed, now standing on the other roads of the door. She tried shutting it in his face, but he wedged it with
his hand. The anger in Sylvie's eyes intensified. Her eyes were somewhat red as she looked at him. Like she
could murder him. "Kage... "I'm sorry," the words tasted foreign on his tongue. Even Sylvie froze first two
seconds before snapping back to reality.
She blinked and looked away, masking her surprise. "Just leave!"
He did. And she slammed the door hard.
By morning, Sylvie was calmer. After having breakfast -alone she returned upstairs to dress. When she was done
she on her way down, she found a maid in the living room holding a bouquet of flowers.
"Oh, | was just about to cto your room, ma'am. Someone delivered this to you," the young woman said with
a small smile.
That was when Sylvie noticed Kage in the corner of the room, by the wine counter. She looked at hun once

"Thank you."
There, she found a note, and she already had a smile on her face before she read it.

She smiled, making it obvious. She sniffed the flowers, inhaling deeply. God, it smelt so good. they suited her.
She returned upstairs to keep the

However,
when he approached his office, his secretary handed him a note in a small envelope.
"Ms. Price askedto give this to you."
His brows furrowed, he collected the note from her. "Where's she?"
She couldn't possibly be having any crazy thoughts, could she?
"I think she should be in her office, sir."
