"Noah..." Isabel started, but he had already exited the room, leaving her alone with her frustrations.
Noah slouched in his office chair at Wall Group, overwhelmed by a sense of defeat. The people he had sent to search for Sadie had returned with no updates.
"Where could you possibly be, Sadie?" he muttered to himself.
Had she really managed to leave the city? Given her limited resources, escaping so quickly seemed unlikely. Perhaps she had help.

Arriving at Howe Manor, he found it eerily quiet.
"Mr. Howe left for a business trip days ago," the butler explained, his face marked with unease.
"Days ago?" Noah's heart sank. His lead had vanished. It felt as if Sadie had disappeared from the world.

The alcohol dulled both his senses and his heart. Visions of Sadie, sometimes smiling softly, sometimes resolute in her departure, haunted him.
"Sadie..." he whispered, his voice raw with emotion.
"Noah?" The soft inquiry cfrom nearby.

"Sadie..." Noah mumbled, still calling another woman's name.
"Noah, it's me," Kyla whispered, panic flickering in her eyes.
As Noah's clarity returned, he recoiled and shoved her away, his expression filled with disgust.
Kyla's face turned pale, her eyes flashing with anger. "It's me, Kyla, Noah," she said, stepping closer to him again.

In her car, Kyla slammed the door, her frustration boiling over She hit the steering wheel hard, her nails threatening to pierce the leather. "Damn you, Noah!" she muttered under her breath.
His thoughts were still with Sadie, not with her.
Kyla couldn't cto terms with it. Why couldn't he see her instead? Why did all his affection belong to Sadie alone? Why was she constantly overshadowed by Sadie? Kyla inhaled deeply, attempting to calm her pounding heart. She reminded herself to maintain composure.
