“Anything else happening back home?” Nathan paused briefly, his voice dropping lower.

Sensing the chill from ahead, Yelena lowered her gaze and spoke softly, “Mr. Moore, that’s all. Zinnia is well protected by Yannis–he treats her like his own sister, granting her every wish. You really don’t need to worry about her so much-”

Nathan looked up, his eyes icy and distant. “Yelena, my patience is running thin. You’re off Zinnia’s case–I’ll find someone else. You’re being transferred to the branch office.”

Yelena froze, a chill shooting up her spine. But when Nathan finished speaking, her eyes instantly welled up. She pleaded, her voice trembling, “Mr. Moore, I don’t want to go to the branch office. I just want to stay by your side…”

“Leave.” Nathan’s tone brooked no argument.

‘Once someone starts thinking only about themselves, selfishness is sure to follow, Nathan thought coldly. If I let her keep an eye on Zinnia, who knows what danger might befall her?‘

To him, Zinnia was his entire world now–protecting her was his bottom line, and he would never allow anyone to harm her.

Yelena had begun harboring ulterior motives. But Nathan was far too perceptive–her schemes were as clear as day to him.

For example, among all these photos she had, Yelena deliberately chose to show more of Zinnia with Yannis.

She knew full well how important Zinnia was to Nathan, yet she still put those photos out there–hoping to make him jealous. After all, the girl who used to have eyes only for him now had someone else by her side.

But Yelena had miscalculated. While Nathan did feel a pang of jealousy, what truly filled his heart was happiness for Zinnia.
