The loud slapping sound echoed inside Calen's condo. His head jerked to the side. For a second, he didn't even realize what just happened until he saw Pamella standing in front of him.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Calen asked, rubbing his cheek.

Pamella stormed past him and into the living room. "Where have you been? Why didn't you show up to the fitting?" she snapped. "You think you can ignore my calls? My messages? You flew off, disappeared, and left me to deal with everything!"

She spotted the stack of papers scattered across the coffee table. Her eyes narrowed. She stepped toward them.

However, Calen moved quickly and blocked her. "Don't touch those."

Pamella looked at him, her arms folding tightly. "What are you up to?"

"Get out."

"You think you can just walk away from this?" She took a step closer. "You disappear for days, ditch the office, and now I find you holed up here like nothing happened? Calen, this isn't just about you. There are contracts. Expectations. And if you think for one second that I won't cancel my father's investments and go to the media with what you-"

"Do it," Calen said.

Pamella froze.

He stepped closer. "Go ahead. Cancel the deals. Call your father. Tell the press whatever you want. I don't care."

The silence after that filled the entire room. Pamella didn't move. Her lips parted slightly, but she didn't speak. Seeing this. Calen quickly turned away from her and started gathering the papers on the table.

"Is this about Izzy?" Pamella asked, her voice cutting through the silence.

Calen didn't look at her. He stacked the documents carefully, as if ignoring her would make her vanish.

Pamella let out a short laugh and stepped closer. “Unbelievable. So that's it, huh? You're throwing everything away because of her?"

"That's none of your business," Calen said without turning around.

Parnella crossed her arms. "What the hell is going on in that rotten mind of yours? You and Izzy are done. She's probably lying somewhere in a coma—or worse, dead! And here you are, destroying everything you worked for because of a damn woman? Have you completely lost your mind?"

Calen gritted his teeth. His jaw tensed, but he said nothing.
