"It''s good to know. Better than being in the dark," Andy said, visibly relieved. Her gaze held a hint of sympathy as she looked at the documents in my hand. She raised her hand as if to touch my arm but then hesitated, opting instead for a supportive gesture.


    "Just give it your all. As long as you put in the effort, Selena will still be yours. I believe in you-Zion can''t hold a candle to you."


    Hearing this, I could only smile and stay silent.


    To be honest, my position as president was not solely due to my own efforts; a significant part of it stemmed from Selena''s connections and influence. The people I worked with were more interested in partnering with her and Ocean Group than with me personally.


    That was why I was willing to start from the ground up in otherpanies rather than simply stepping into a high-ranking position at Ocean Group because of her.


    As a man, I valued my dignity. I didn''t want to be seen as someone living off a woman. I wanted to prove that I could forge my own path and achieve sess independently, regardless of my rtionship with Selena.


    Even if some people whispered behind my back, the fact remained that I had made it. In just five years, I climbed to the position of president and entered the upper echelons of thepany. No matter how much envy or resentment they felt, they had to respect me.


    The journey had its challenges, but the results were worth it, weren''t they?


    "Since someone is already handling this project contract, I''ll head back to thepany. There are matters I need to attend to. By the way, I forgot to ask—how long will it take you to review the contract? Is three days enough? I''lle to pick it up personally in three days," Andy said.


    I shook my head, and Andy frowned. She opened her mouth to speak, but I interrupted her. "It''s just a review of a document. You won''t need three days; two days will suffice. Juste by to pick it up then, and I''ll mark any issues for you."


    I couldn''t tell Andy that I wasn''t adept with technology.


    When I mentioned needing only two days, Andy regarded me skeptically but turned to leave nheless.


    Watching her graceful figure as she walked away, I decided to voice my curiosity. "How long has Selena been absent from thepany?"


    Andy paused and looked at me, furrowing her brow as she thought for a moment. "She hasn''t been in for nearly two months."


    Two months-she hadn''t gone to the office even before our marriage troubles began. This suggested that her bipr disorder might have developed before our separation, meaning her illness wasn''t solely a result of our rtionship.


    Reflecting on what Zion had said earlier only deepened my confusion.


    What exactly was Zion''s intention in keeping me here? Was it genuinely for Selena''s sake, or did he have ulterior motives?


    After pondering for a few moments, I still couldn''t grasp Zion''s motives, so I decided to let it go.


    At that moment, Andy''s voice interrupted my thoughts.
