Nadine bit her lip and stepped forward.

“Finn, I know Tess doesn’t like me, but I still see her as family. She clearly wants nothing to do with you, yet you keep forcing yourself on her … I just wanted to speak up for her.”

Zane’s lips couldn’t help but twitch in disbelief.

Finn, however, furrowed his brows as his gaze turned sharp. “You’re here to fight for her?”

He pushed the documents on his desk forward and leaned back, arms crossing over his chest.

The powerful aura he exuded made Nadine swallow involuntarily. However, a flicker of fascination flashed through her eyes.

He’s the man standing at the very top of Aetheris’s power pyramid, after all. And only someone like him deserved my love.

Her cheeks flushed pink as the thought ran through her mind.

She then straightened up and nodded. “Yes.”

Finn’s eyes darkened, and a cold smirk tugged at his lips.

From where she stood, Nadine could only see the curve of his mouth, and her heart fluttered with hope.

She knew it she had been right all along.

People often said she and Finn were close. Even some colleagues would tease her in private, hinting that something was going on between them. But as the one actually involved, Nadine knew the truth better than anyone.

Aside from the occasional moment when Finn sought her out to handle particularly difficult problems or cases, most of the time it felt like she was throwing herself at a wall of ice.

Still, someone as cold and distant as he, who had never allowed others to get too close, had silently accepted her presence at his side.

There had even been a time when she got a minor scrape, and he’d made a huge scene over it at the hospital. He had even mobilized every doctor to examine her.

That had to mean something.

But-

Nadine’s hands curled into fists. All she could think about was the countless times Finn had avoided her in recent days.

It was all because of Tess.

Ever since he found out where Tess was, his time for her had all but vanished.

She couldn’t just sit back and do nothing. She had to fight for this.

A flicker of calculation crossed Nadine’s eyes, but was quickly hidden behind a mask of innocence,

She smiled sweetly, her tone softening with a mix of affection and vulnerability.

Dressed in an elegant, perfectly chosen outfit, the contrast made her look even more striking.

Finn,” she said, stepping closer and blinking at him, “if Tess doesn’t want to stay, then maybe… you should let her go.”

Finn chuckled coldly. “So I’m supposed to let her go? Do I look like I run a charity?”

Finn only wanted revenge.

Tess, a convicted felon, had no right to live as Finn’s wife.
