‘Gone?‘ Marco continued flipping through his newspaper, not even looking up.
Yes, Boss. Mary nodded anxiously.
Tel! Carlo to stay alert, and call me in advance if anything happens. If the causes another trene like ysterday, til bring her arken here to er up. Marco put down his newspaper and walked toward the dining room.
Yes.” Mary nodded repeatedly.
Marco leisurely finished breakfast alone, then had his driver Salvatore take him to Cortés Tech.
As soon as Marco left, Sabrina sauntered down from upstairs and hugged Maria affectionately: ‘Aunt Mary, thank you so much for helping in. Esbenkamely adore you.”
Mary said nervously, “You nearly scared me to death just now. I thought Boss knew we were deceiving him.”
“He’s not a mind reader. How could he possibly know I was upstairs?” Sabrina said as she put on her sun hat and sunglasses Aunt Mary. Im off now. When i finish filming this movie, I’ll take you out somewhere nice.”
“Miss, at least have breakfast before you go!” But before Mary could finish, Sabrina had already run off.
Having finally escaped from Marco’s clutches, Sabrina didn’t want to stay a moment longer.
On the necessary path out of the villa, a silver–white Bentley was parked in an inconspicuous spot, almost invisible unless one looked carefully.
Seeing Sabrina hurrying out, driver Salvatore watched Marco’s expression in the rearview mirror: “Boss, should we have more people follow the mong misst
Marco rubbed his temples, his gentle gaze following the increasingly distant figure of the girl: “Have Carlo watch her with his team. Don’t let what happened last night happen again.”
After saying this, Marco made another call: “Assign our company’s best agent to Sabrina, and two sharp assistants as well. Most importantly, strictly control the scripts she accepts–no kissing scenes allowed.”
Marco saw right through that girl’s little schemes.
However, as Sabrina had said, she was an adult now with her own/aspirations. As her brother, he should let go and allow her to try, rather than restricting her in everything as he had before.
Because I couldn’t reach Marco by phone and was worried something had happened to him, I barely slept all night.
This morning, I got up early and arrived at the company with dark circles under my eyes.
Reaching the first–floor lobby, I found a place to sit.
After waiting for about half an hour, company employees gradually arrived, going upstairs in groups. I saw Marco enter with Giulio and Luca.
Seeing him at work, my anxious heart finally calmed down. I quietly blended into the crowd, pretending not to see him
‘Good morning, Mr. Vittorio!” Everyone was busy greeting Marco.
Marco’s gaze swept lightly across the crowd, immediately spotting me. Noticing my poor complexion, he turned and gave Luca a look.
Luca immediately understood his boss’s intention and smiled: “Alia, Mr. Vittorio wants to discuss a project with you. Please come with us.”

Suddenly being called out, I was momentarily stunned. I knew Marco didn’t actually have any project in dingen bar I coulda ay maak. people, so I obediently walked over and entered the elevator with Match.

If it had been just Marco and me, I could have initiated conversation. But with Giulio and Luca present, I didn’t know what to say
Luca, being perceptive, immediately pressed the button for the nearest floor: “Mr. Vittorio, Giulio Monica, so we won’t be going up with you.”

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Luca and Giulio quickly exited, leaving the space to just the two of us.
In the elevator, Marco stared at me, and after a long silence finally said: “Didn’t sleep well last night?
I kept my head down without responding.
Marco pulled me into his arms, embracing me gently, his eyes behind the gold–framed glasses full of amusement: Couldn’t sleep because you missed met
I pushed him away: “Who missed you?”
Marco raised his eyebrows slightly and reached out to touch my head: ‘Really didn’t miss me?“–
I swatted his hand away: “Don’t do that, there are cameras here.”
Marco raised an eyebrow: “So what?”
I glared at him and pressed the button for the 19th floor. If others at the company saw us being intimate, I’d be labeled as a vixen stealing someone else’s man again.
Marco pulled me back: “Then why didn’t you sleep well?”
“Why do you think?” Recalling the reason for my sleepless night, I felt aggrieved.
Last night his phone was constantly busy when I called, making me worry that Gabriel might have done something to him. I was anxious all night, and now he had the nerve to ask why I hadn’t slept well.
‘Are you angry because I didn’t accompany you last night?” Seeing my irritation, this was the only reason Marco could think of.
Ding!
The elevator stopped at the nineteenth floor and the doors opened.
I gave Marco a reproachful look before turning and walking away.
Alone in the elevator, Marco’s lips curved into a smile. He never expected that in such a short time, I would already find it hard to be without him.
After Red Scorpion Group announced they would no longer collaborate with Cortés Tech, many companies that had dealings with Cortés Tech indicated, both openly and subtly, that they would not continue cooperation after completing current projects.
Companies that had previously worked well together were now withholding new orders.
Suddenly, the business department where I worked entered an extremely dark period.
Old partners weren’t giving new orders, and when we tried to develop new business, potential clients wouldn’t eve no interest in cooperating with Cortés Tech.
