"No. I was married." Billion said, placing emphasis on the word, was."Oh."Joy said, her eyes widened as Billion dropped that revelation, and a subtle sigh of relief escaped her lips. The weight she hadn't realized she was carrying when Billion mentioned he was a son-in-law lifted from her shoulders. A tiny smile played on her lips.Internally, Joy questioned why she felt such relief. Was it the realization that her boss wasn't bound by marital commitments, making their professional interactions less complicated? Or perhaps there was a subconscious acknowledgment of the unspoken connection between them that she had started to feel?As she pondered over these thoughts, Joy couldn't deny a certain warmth spreading within her."You got divorced." Joy stated."Yup!" Billion confirmed."Why?" Joy asked.Before Billion could provide an answer to that question, a noise from below interrupted them.Quietly, they make their way to discover the source of the noise, they look down from the balco

"Well, it looks like she just gave you a compliment. However I'm terribly sorry, Joy," he exclaimed, genuine remorse etched on his face. "I didn't mean to ruin your beautiful dress."Joy, momentarily surprised, took a deep breath and managed a gracious smile. "It's alright, sir. Accidents happen."Determined to make amends, Billion swiftly offered, "Let me order a new dress for you right away. I want to make sure you have a replacement as soon as possible."However, Joy, touched by his sincerity, gently placed a hand on his arm. "Sir, it was an accident, and I appreciate your offer. However, I must decline.""Why?" Billion asked.Joy turned to inspect the unintended alteration. She traced her fingers along the slit, a thoughtful expression on her face.

It's been a month since Lord Boulevard's retirement party. Inside Billion's office, the air was calm and serene.Andrew, sitting across from Billion, remarks, "You know, Billion, it's surprisingly smooth sailing with our external partners. I anticipated more inquiries about your identity or attempts to connect directly, but most of them seem content working through me."Billion, leaning back in his chair, responded with a calm demeanor, "That's precisely the way I prefer it for now, Andrew. The less attention drawn to me, the better. It seems our strategy is working as intended."Andrew nods, "Absolutely. They appreciate the efficiency and effectiveness of our collaboration. It's almost as if they understand the importance of keeping certain aspects discreet. No unnecessary probing or attempts to unveil the mysterious figure behind the scenes."Billion leaned forward, his gaze focused on Andrew, and asked, "How are you finding your role as my representative, Andrew?"Andrew replied

More than just as your PA."A moment hung in the air, pregnant with the unspoken tension that had been building between them. Billion's guarded composure wavered, revealing a vulnerability he seldom allowed others to witness.Joy's hopeful expression faltered as Billion's gaze held hers in silence.

She had bared her feelings, laying them out in the open, but Billion's muted response left her feeling exposed and uncertain.The seconds stretched, and an uneasy tension settled between them.

The atmosphere around him grew tense, a silent storm brewing as he assessed the man standing in Joy's way.Feeling a surge of protective instinct, Billion's muscles tensed beneath his clothes.

Mr Blue's arrogance crumbled, and desperation took its place. He pleaded with Billion, "Mr Boulevard, I never meant any harm to Joy. I just wanted to talk to her, that's all. Please, I had no intentions of hurting anyone."Billion, maintaining his steely demeanor, replied, "Words alone won't suffice. Before we proceed, you will apologize to Joy directly."Mr Blue, now realizing the gravity of the situation, agreed hastily, "Of course, Mr Boulevard, I'll do whatever it takes to make things right.

Andrew's office presented an abstract landscape of minimalism. Andrew, Billion, Joy, and Sam gathered around a polished metal table."Andrew, you really should get a piece of jewelry when you visit Mrs Harvey's shop," suggested Sam.Andrew nodded, considering the idea. "It could be a great way to test first-hand and prove the authenticity of her jewelry."Joy, however, interjected with caution in her voice. "But what if after we expose her, she claims you swapped the jewelry you got from her for a fake one? We need a more foolproof plan."Billion chimed in, offering a thoughtful suggestion. "Why not have Mrs Harvey herself make a video, verifying the authenticity of her creations? That way, there's no room for doubt."Eager nods of agreement filled the room as Billion's suggestion resonated with the group. Andrew, recognizing the advantage of the idea, decided to take it a step further."Let's bring Mrs Gift into the loop. Share everything we know about Mrs Harvey with her," Andrew p
