?Chapter 262:


    Isabel rubbed K’s back gently, her voice calm and soothing as she said, “Don’t worry. It’s over. I’ve posted your bail; we’re going home.”


    As K stepped out into the cool night, the fresh air seemed to help clear her mind a bit.


    Isabel’s eyes, red from crying,nded on her with concern. “K, you’ve endured so much. I’ve told Noah; he’ll be back soon.”


    A pang of worry shot through K. She hadn’t expected Isabel to involve Noah.


    This was troubling. Ever since Sadie’s return, Noah had subtly shown signs of favoring her. If he delved into this incident…


    K feared she mightpletely lose her ce in his heart.


    She mustered a weak smile, attempting to appear nonchnt. “Isabel, I’m okay, really. Maybe we shouldn’t bother Noah. I’d rather not blow this out of proportion.”


    Isabel sighed deeply, her frustration evident. “You silly girl, why do you insist on being so selfless? After what that woman has done, and you’re still concerned about overreacting? Noah deserves to know her true nature!”


    K’s gaze flickered, betraying her internal conflict. “Isabel, I just… don’t want Noah to worry over me.”


    Seeing K’s soft-heartedness made Isabel’s heart clench.


    She pulled K into a tight embrace, her own anger simmering.


    K was too selfless, always considering others’ benefits, even now. Sadie, on the other hand, was ruthless, willing to do whatever it took to get her way.


    When Isabel took K back to Wall Manor, the night had deepened into a quiet stillness.


    K sat opposite Isabel, cradling a cup of hot tea, the warmth seeping into her chilled hands.

    “K, I’ve heard about your dismissal. Don’t me Noah. He tends to make quick decisions in business,” Isabel sighed gently.


    K felt a tightness in her chest, her fingers curling into her palms reflexively.


    “K, I’ve arranged for you to start a new role. Tomorrow, you’ll take over a branch office.”


    “Take over?” K looked up sharply, a mix of surprise and excitement in her eyes.


    “Yes,” Isabel affirmed with a nod.


    “You and Noah will eventually get married. It’s time you learned to be his support, to effectively manage the branch.”


    K’s joy was palpable. “Thank you, Isabel. I can’t thank you enough…”


    Leading a branch office had been her longstanding aspiration.


    “K, just do your best. I have every confidence in you. Remember, if it hadn’t been for your intervention, those frauds would have tricked me!”


    Isabel reflected on the past with a sigh.


    K’s eyes briefly showed a flicker of guilt, but she quickly masked it with a smile. “Isabel, let’s not dwell on the past. I just did what I should do.”


    The next morning, K entered the Wall Group branch office wearing a perfectly tailored champagne-colored suit.


    “Miss Wade, good morning!”


    The receptionist greeted her with clear respect.
