Inside Gilbert Group. Zach had obtained the dashcam footage closest to the incident, which clearly showed Judy rushing at Elvira and grabbing her arm. Elvira barely moved her arm when Judy, like a kite caught in a gust of wind, was sent flying down the stairs. It was evident to anyone with eyes that this was a setup.

Zach sent the video to Elvira.

After wrapping up the matter, Spike looked up and noticed several deep red marks on Zach's neck, strikingly evident.

Zach, noticing Spike's gaze fixed on his neck, commented, "When you have a girlfriend, you'll have them too. No need to envy me."

Spike fell into silence.

He remembered the odd sounds he heard from Zach over the phone yesterday, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment.

Suddenly, the office door burst open. Samson stormed in, Zach's mood darkening instantly, ready to lash out, but he paused when Samson said, "Zach, I saw Elvira picking up a car yesterday. Was it a gift from you? Have you revealed your identity to her?"

Zach didn't answer.

"Not yet. Are you sure it was her?" he asked.

"Zach, you don't have to pretend to be poor with that 20-thousand- dollar car anymore, right?" Zach felt frustrated, "Even if I don't pretend, she thinks I borrowed the car. If I brought her here, she'd think this office was also just for show!"

Samson couldn't help but laugh at this, finding Elvira both adorable and genuine, with a thought process unlike anyone else's.

"Maybe the car she bought was meant to surprise you. I saw it's worth hundreds of thousands of dollars," Samson said,
