Ellen returned to the apartment he shared with his beloved wife, Marlene, after a long day of work.But he was completely unaware of the plan that was forming in her mind; he took off his coat at the door and called out,"Honey, I'm back!"Instead of greeting him, Marlene just rolled her eyes and shouted back from the couch,"And why the hell are you ten minutes late? You know what, I don't care. Just quickly peel an orange for me, I am starving because of your carelessness."Ellen didn't react, he was quite used to such words from her. He ignored the taunt and instead grabbed an orange from the fruit basket before sitting down to peel it obediently."Here you go, Honey. How was your day today?"She didn't reply to his question as she took the orange without any hint of gratitude and asked,"What about dinner?""I think I should take a shower first, and then I'll make you something. How about that?"Marlene's face scrunched up with disgust as she nodded,"Sure, I thought I would have

Although Marlene's face immediately turned red, she didn't say anything in reply. Meanwhile, there was a hint of a smile on Ellen's face, which he hid immediately.Feeling uncomfortable with the way she had claimed her possession by wrapping her hand around his elbow, he gently freed his arm from her grip.But Emilia was enjoying the look of jealousy in Marlene's eyes, and as soon as Ellen pushed her hand away, she tried to reach for his hand again. This time, she grabbed his palm and wrapped her fingers around it, intentionally creating a misunderstanding.What she hadn't expected was that Ellen would reprimand her sternly;"Let go," he ordered, his tone carrying a rare edge of authority.Emilia, although reluctantly and unhappily, did as she was told and stepped aside to respect his wishes.This intimate and close interaction between Ellen and the gorgeous guard captain didn't escape the notice of Sam, who was watching them from just a few feet away, consumed by a burning jealousy.

The amount of pity that Marlene had started to gather increased much more as they heard her twisted story. The female colleagues felt sympathy for her as a fellow woman, and some even came forward to hug her. "Oh Marlene, I'm so sorry for you. I can't believe Ellen did that, men are such assholes…" "Yeah, they are horrible! But don't feel lonely or sad, okay? We all are here to support you." "Of course! Just come and talk to me if you ever feel sad, that loser doesn't deserve your tears!" Meanwhile, the nale colleagues also rallied in her favor. Of course, they had always found her attractive, but didn't directly make a move at her because Ellen also worked there. Now, they naturally felt like they had a change to win her favor, and they began to abuse Ellen as well. One man spotted him standing outside the bullpen and shouted, "Look, there he is! The heartless bastard, I can't believe he did that!" As soon as Marlene heard that Ellen was also there, she began to sob loudly, a

The moment that Ellen released his grip on the gangster, allowing him to stand up, he scrambled to his feet and tried to run away, while keeping his head turned towards Ellen.He was quite suspicious of this corporate employee who hadn't even asked about the debt amount before promising to pay it, but of course, the fear that was written on his face was much greater than the doubt in his mind.Instead of saying anything, he just looked at Ellen with distrust and then chose to leave first, while the rest of his men followed.Although he was defeated for now, he could not let them go without extracting his full payment. So to make sure that Ellen and Sophie were not planning on running away, he gathered several of his men.He instructed them to guard the office downstairs twenty- four- seven until the payment was credited into the account.With the departure of the gang, Sophie wasted no time in turning her attention towards Ellen and speaking in a slightly stern tone;"Ellen, you reall

After settling the company's affairs, Sophie asked Ellen to accompany her back to attend her grandma's birthday party. "Thank you so much for what you've done for my company. Thanks to you, I was able to save the company and expose Zane's treachery." "It's only right that I do so. I only did what I thought was right." "Thank you again, Ellen. But, can I ask you for something?" "What is it?" "About my grandma's birthday party. Please come with me." Ellen smiled. "From the moment you asked, I've already agreed to your request. So you don't need to confirm it again. I will come with you, Sophie" And Ellen's smile was contagious to Sophie. "Thank you, Ellen. You're a good man." "And you're a very dedicated woman. Everyone should be proud of how you maintain your company." Unfortunately, Ellen was the first person to feel proud of her. "But before we go to my grandma's birthday party, we should visit the registry hall to register our marriage. We need to get a marriage license b
