Chapter 189

Linda clenched her fingers slightly at her sides. She had hoped a quick apology would smooth things over, but Nora wasn’t the type to let things go that easily.

She forced herself to stay composed. “Then… what do you suggest, Ms. Nora? Tell me what would be fair in your eyes. We are willing to do what it takes to make amends.”

Nora didn’t answer right away. She tapped her fingertips lightly against the table before finally speaking.

“Compensation and settlement aren’t my concern. Leo will have someone contact you about the terms. Until an official resolution is reached, this project will be put on hold.”

With that, she turned away, as if the matter was already settled. She didn’t spare Linda or Flora another glance before resuming her work.

The dismissal was clear.

Linda’s lips pressed into a thin line. She was used to handling conflicts with charm and diplomacy, not being flat–out ignored. But she knew better than to push further.

She turned to the others in STARLINE Studio, offering another apology that was as formal as it was empty, before walking away with Flora trailing behind her.

Once they were out of earshot, Flora, unable to hold back her resentment, burst out, “It was such a minor issue! That little bitch Nora is just bitter because Alpha Arnold gave you control of the company, and she can’t stand it. That’s why she turned something small into such a big deal!”

Linda’s irritation flared, but she didn’t disagree.

“She’s making trouble, that’s for sure,” she muttered. “But Flora, you need to stop acting so impulsively. This isn’t the first time you’ve stirred up unnecessary problems.”

Flora rolled her eyes but said nothing.

Yet, even as Linda tried to push it aside, an uneasiness settled in her chest.

By midday, that uneasy feeling only grew stronger.

Her suspicions were confirmed when a man in a sharp black suit arrived at her studio, carrying a folder of documents. His demeanor was professional but firm.
