Since things had reached such a point, Lenora tried her best to avoid Zachary at the office. However, Zachary acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to invite Lenora to have meals in his office.

Lenora sat down on the couch, noting the table full of her favorite dishes before her. Watching Zachary carefully laying out her cutlery for her, a sudden urge welled up within her. She really wanted to ask: Was there still a chance for them to be public about their relationship?

Before she could even open her mouth, Zachary spoke up first. "Nora, I've thought about what's going on online. I've considered making our relationship public, but if we do, Susanna will become the target. This could ruin her reputation, and she might never recover from it "You don't have to say anything more. I already know all this."

The food in Lenora's mouth suddenly lost all flavor. It was as if she was chewing on wax, making it hard to swallow.

In that very moment, a thought suddenly sprang into Lenora's mind. What was it that she liked about him?

Did she enjoy his ongoing humiliations and deceptions all this while?

She had actually held a sliver of hope for him just moments ago.

I really was such a fool!

Silence descended upon the office.

Zachary pursed his lips, wanting to say something more.

However, after a moment of silence, he didn't say anything. Instead, he furrowed his brows, set down his cutlery, and stood up to go to the restroom.

At that moment, the phone resting on the table started to ring.

Lenora intended to grab it to take a look, but a thought crossed her mind, and she withdrew her hand, pretending not to have heard anything.

The call went unanswered and automatically disconnected, only for the ringtone to sound off again after a brief two-second pause. This cycle repeated over and over. After ringing three times, it finally ceased.

When Zachary returned, Lenora gave him a glance. "Someone called you.three times in a row. It must be urgent."

Zachary walked over to the table and picked up his phone, casually asking, "Who was it?"

Lenora busied herself with cleaning up the takeout trash as she replied, "I don't know, I didn't check."

Realizing something, Zachary paused in his actions and cast his gaze toward Lenora, studying her for a few seconds.
