Thank you. The team usioned gratitude in unison, their voices filled with genuine appreciation.

Chloe, with a keen eye for detail, noticed that Hazel appeared a bit paler than usual. She leaned in and whispered, “Are you okay?”

Hazel nodded and replied softly, “Yes, I’m fine.” Despite her composed response, a whirlwind of emotions and expectations churned within her.

She took a deep breath in, determined to face Ethan and whatever challenges she would be facing.

Hazel’s

An unsettling sense of unease clung to me like a stubborn shadow. My palms kept getting sweaty and moist with nervousness and I continuously wiped it off making it difficult to maintain composure. The prospect of meeting Ethan, who would now be my superior, loomed over me with a shroud of uncertainty. I wondered about his demeanor and attitude. toward me in this new superior and subordinate setting. Ethan, my ex-husband.

The unease was unrelenting, a persistent feeling that wouldn’t dissipate. Desperate to quell my nerves, I reached for a bottle of water and took a few hurried swigs. News of Ethan’s recent marriage to Bella had reached gotten to me. They were a prominent couple, widely recognized throughout the city. Surprisingly, this knowledge brought me a sense of relief. During our marriage, Ethan had not yet attained the level of wealth and influence he now possessed. As his ex-wife, I remained comfortably anonymous, living my life without the prying eyes of the public.

Amid my thoughts, Chloe’s gentle touch snapped me back to the present. “Hazel,” she said. softly, concern evident in her voice.

I blinked and refocused on her. “Huh?” I mumbled, momentarily disoriented.

“You’ve been spa c i n g out, Chloe remarked. “Are you sure you’re okay?”

I offered her a reassuring smile. “Oh, yes, I’m fine. Just a bit nervous, that’s all,” I added with a chuckle.

Chloe nodded understandingly. “Well, okay then. We should head to the briefing; it’s almost

time.

“Okay,” I replied, determined to gather my composure. “Let’s go, team.”

We made our way to the elevator, following the map that Gigi had handed to us earlier. Navigating the vast expanse of Tesco’s facilities was no small feat, and we didn’t want to risk getting lost.

Upon entering the office, it became apparent that others had already taken their seats, suggesting that we had arrived later than expected.

“Apologies for our tar d i n e s s,” I quickly offered, my tone apologetic.

A woman at the head of the table, whom we assumed to be the meeting facilitator, responded, “It’s not a problem. We had informed you of the adjusted meeting time. We initiated some preliminary discussions while waiting for your arrival.”

Gigi, ever gracious and welcoming, explained further, “Yes, we intended to start a bit earlier

to allow you time to settle in and address some business matters.”

We took our seats as everyone at the table began introducing themselves. They were all key individuals responsible for various departments within the Empire.

As I began to deliver a prepared speech, the door swung open, and to my astonishment, Ethan walked into the room. The moment was filled with a complex mix of emotions as our paths crossed once more.
