?Chapter 376:


    “Sadie, I’m almost done with the revisions for the Lawrence Group’s design drafts. Can you take a look and see if there’s anything else that needs adjusting?”


    Just like that, the suffocating weight of Sadie’s chaotic thoughts was broken.


    Sadie inhaled deeply, doing her best to maintainposure.


    “Okay, let me see,” she said with a forced smile.


    Nte passed her the design sketches, her eyes lingering on Sadie’s unusually pale face.


    “Are you alright? You don’t look well.”


    “I’m fine. Probably just didn’t get enough sleep,” Sadie replied, avoiding Nte’s gaze and beginning to study the sketches.


    “Make sure you rest. Nothing is more important than your well-being,” Nte advised with genuine concern.


    “Yeah, I know,” Sadie replied absentmindedly, her mind far from the papers in front of her.


    “Oh, by the way, Sadie.” Nte suddenly remembered something and spoke excitedly. “Have you noticed? All the bad press about our studio is gone!”


    Sadie’s fingers froze. Her attention shifted from the sketches to Nte’s face.


    “Gone?” she murmured, her voice hoarse, almost as if she were talking to herself.


    Nte nodded enthusiastically. “Yeah! I checked this morning. Every single post andmentpletely wiped out, like they never existed.”


    A heavy feeling settled in Sadie’s chest, unease creeping up her spine.


    That level of erasure wasn’t natural.


    Someone was behind this.


    But who? Her thoughts immediatelynded on one name—Noah.


    Once the idea took root, it refused to leave.


    Her breathing grew uneven, palms mmy with sweat.


    If Noah was responsible, what was his motive? Was he trying to protect her? Or did he have an entirely different reason?


    She shook the thought away and forced herself to focus on the sketches.


    “Alright, I see.”


    Flipping through the pages quickly, Sadie skimmed over the details without truly absorbing them.


    Clearing her throat, Sadie returned the drafts to Nte and said, “These revisions work. Let’s proceed with them.”


    “Got it.” Nte epted them, then added, “You should head home early. You need rest.”


    “You too,” Sadie replied, struggling to sound normal.


    As soon as Nte left, Sadie leaned back in her chair, shutting her eyes. After a long pause, she opened them and nced at her phone to check the time.


    The workday was far from over, but she couldn’t stay any longer.


    Grabbing her bag, she rose to her feet and left the office, her steps unsteady.


    Meanwhile, K and Vivi were talking on the phone.


    “K, you’re pathetic!” Vivi’s voice crackled through the phone, dripping with mockery. “Slimron? That’s all you amounted to?”


    K’s grip on her phone tightened, nails digging into her palm. “Vivi, knock it off! The project in Slimron may not be on the same level as those here, but it’s still a key assignment for Wall Group. Noah entrusted me with this challenge to train me!”


    “Train you?” Vivi scoffed. “He dumped you in a deste town, and you’re actually grateful? You’re so blinded by your feelings for Noah that you can’t even see what’s right in front of you! He sent you away because he’s done with you.”
