"Driveto the office," he said to the driver, his voice devoid of warmth.

Noah glanced at her briefly, his eyes cold and detached.
"Let the driver take you back to the hospital after droppingoff," he said, his voice strictly professional and emotionally distant.
A sense of despair washed over Kyla. She pressed her lips together, attempting a smile.
"It's just fatigue. A little rest should help. I'll be okay." "Alright," Noah responded, his tone disinterested, his attention focused on the documents in his hand, not sparing Kyla another look.
The air in the car felt oppressively thick.
Drawing in a deep breath, Kyla struggled to contain her mounting frustration and worry.
"Noah, do you have any plans this evening? We could perhaps dine together," she asked hesitantly.
Noah, without raising his eyes from his work, refused.
"No, I'm tied up with a meeting tonight." Another meeting? Kyla felt like she was on the verge of exploding with frustration. She managed to maintain a composed facade, but her nails dug deeply into her palms.

"A child?! She actually has a child with her?!"
"Yes, Miss Wade. According to our investigation, Sadie disappeared more than three years ago and only recently returned, accompanied by a boy about three years old," the man explained calmly. Kyla stood abruptly, pacing the room as her high heels echoed against the floor, each step pounding like a drumbeat in her chest.
"Three years ago..." she muttered, remembering Sadie's odd behaviors back then, her expression growing darker: "Could it be that Sadie didn't lose her baby at that time?!" She stopped, a fierce determination in her eyes. "She cback with the child to win Noah back! I can't let her succeed!" Jealousy flared within her, nearly overwhelming her. She grabbed the car keys from the table and said icily, "Get the car ready!"

Inside, the soft, dim lighting of the hallway cast a warm glow on Sadie, who was holding the sleeping Averi ve and murmuring gently to him. She had hoped for a peaceful night, but Kyla's unexpected visit disrupted that.
