Viona continued to stay withfor the next few days, although the atmosphere in the house remained icy
whenever Noah was around.
Throughout the days, | made a point of avoiding Noah at every turn. Whenever he would enter a room, | would
find an excuse to leave. If he ever tried to speak to me, | would turn up the music or start a loud
conversation with Viona.
By the evening of the third day, the tension in the house was palpable. Even Viona seemed to be getting sick of
it, and over dinner, she made it even more clear
“You need to talk to him. | can’t take this anymore.”

| paused just as | was about to pop a piece of steak into my mouth. “There's nothing to talk to him about.”
“Con, Hannah. Whatever is going on between you two, it’s not helping any to give him the cold shoulder
whenever he tries to talk to you.”
Yeah, right, | thought wryly. Nothing ever helped anyway; | could have tried to make amends with him all |
wanted, but the fact of the matter was that Noah was still in love with Zoe, likely sleeping with her, and | was
going to catch him in the act.
| was in the study later that night, going over spaperwork for the eating disorder campaign, when | heard
the sound of someone knocking on the door. “Cin,” | called out, expecting it to be Viona.
But as soon as the door opened to reveal Noah, | regretted not locking it earlier. “Get out,” | said coldly, returning
my gaze to the papers in front of me.
“Enough, Hannah,” he growled, striding into the room and shutting the door behind himself. “We need to
talk.”
| kept my eyes on the papers in front of me, not even deigning to look at him. “I'm busy.”
Noah slammed his hand on the desk, makingjump. “I know what you're doing.” He jabbed an accusatory
finger at me. “You planted that picture in my offering bundle at the Lunar Festival, didn’t you?”
That got my attention. | looked up at him, my eyes narrowing into slits. “Excuse me?”
“You heard me, Hannah,” he snapped. “You're trying to makelook bad. Create a cheating scandal that
doesn’t exist so you can look better during the divorce. It’s just like you to schlike this. And to think that |
thought you had genuine remorse after your last schagainst Zoe.”
| felt a surge of anger rise in my chest at his words. | did have genuine remorse... before | realized that Noah was
still madly in love with Zoe and likely having sex with her on the regular.
“Oh, that’s rich coming from you,” | sneered. “| don’t need to ‘scheme’ anything, Noah. You act suspicious
enough on your own. I'll catch you in your lies, and then you'll really be sorry.”
Noah huffed in annoyance and ran his fingers through his hair, messing it up uncharacteristically. “What do |
need to do to prove to you that I'm not sleeping with Zoe?” he hissed.

| simply shrugged. “How about you travel back in tand decide not to place that picture of you two in

“I've told you a hundred times, Hannah... | didn’t put that picture in there. Zoe still has her copy, so she didn’t
put it in there, either. You're the only one who could have known where | kept it.”
“Is that so?” | scoffed. “Why did you even keep that picture anyway, Noah?”
“It’s just a picture. I'm allowed to keep old photos from my past.”
“It’s more than ‘just a picture’ and you know it, Noah. Zoe wasn’t just sex who you'd like to reminisce about
once in a while. She was your fated mate, and you never got over her.”
