    The following morning, the headquarters of Skyray Medical buzzed with activity as N trailed behind Damon and Spencer, who were leading her through an array ofboratories and production workshops. Yet, despite the vibrant atmosphere around her, N felt a cloud of distraction hovering above her. The news from the private investigator the previous night gnawed at her thoughts, leaving her mind adrift.


    “Miss N, what are your thoughts on our extraction process?” The technical director of Skyray Medical stood before her, eager to showcase their cutting-edge technology. However, it was painfully clear that N was not present in that moment.


    “Miss N?” The director’s voice rose slightly, attempting to catch her attention.


    Spencer cleared his throat softly, a subtle reminder that snapped N back to reality. “Oh? I’m sorry, what did you say?” she stammered, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.


    This was the third instance of her absent-mindedness that day, and Damon’s frown deepened as he cast a disapproving nce in her direction. His frustration was palpable, and N could feel the weight of his disappointment.


    After the tour concluded, they convened in the conference room. Bill, brimming with enthusiasm,unched into the details of their cooperation n, his voice animated as he addressed the team. However, when he turned to N for her insights on the standards for testing medicinal materials, she once again drifted into her thoughts, failing to respond in a timely manner.


    “Miss N?” Bill’s tone took on a hint of awkwardness, sensing the tension in the air.


    Damon’s demeanor shifted dramatically; his expression hardened as he directed a cold stare at N. “I have little patience for employees who allow personal issues to interfere with their work,” he stated bluntly, his voice cutting through the silence like a knife.


    The room fell into an ufortable hush, the tension thick enough to cut with a knife. N felt the heat rise in her cheeks as she recognized her unprofessional behavior. Lowering her gaze, she murmured an apology, “I’m sorry, Mr. Damon.”


    “If you conduct experiments in this state,” he continued, his voice nowced with icy resolve, “I have serious doubts about your ability to avoid mistakes.”


    Bill attempted to diffuse the situation, his tone awkward yet hopeful. “It’s alright, it’s alright. Miss N might just be a bit fatigued from the long flight.”


    However, Damon dismissed Bill’s attempt at reconciliation with a curt nod. “Today’s meeting is over. Spencer, please arrange the schedule for tomorrow.”


    With that, he exited the conference room, leaving behind an atmosphere thick with tension and unspoken words.


    Later that evening, N found herself back in her hotel room, staring at herputer screen as she opened the evidence photos sent by the private investigator. The images were stark and revealing: rk was seen carrying Jordyn out of the office building, and another photo showed Jordyn, pale and frail, lying on a hospital bed with rk seated beside her, gripping her hand tightly.


    These photographs were a goldmine of evidence that could solidify her position in the impending divorce proceedings. Yet, instead of feeling a rush of triumph, N was ovee with a wave of disgust and disappointment. The victory felt hollow, tainted by the betrayal she had uncovered.


    Just then, a sharp ring from the doorbell interrupted her thoughts.


    With a hint of curiosity, N approached the door and peered through the peephole. Standing there was a young woman, one of Skyray Medical’s employees, introduced to her as Zoe, Bill’s assistant.


    “Miss N, I’m Zoe,” a cheerful voice chimed from the other side. “You left your scarf at the office. I came to return it to you.”


    Scarf? N’s brow furrowed in confusion. She distinctly remembered not wearing one that day.


    Opening the door slightly, she greeted Zoe with a polite smile. “Thank you foring all this way, Miss Zoe.”


    Zoe stepped inside, carrying an elegant shopping bag. “Here’s your scarf. Please check to see if everything is alright with it.”


    As N reached for the bag, she immediately sensed something was off. The weight felt excessive for a mere scarf. Curious, she peered inside and was taken aback to find several neatly stacked bundles of cash beneath the scarf, an estimated two hundred thousand dors.


    “Miss Zoe,” N eximed, pushing the bag back towards her. “This is far too extravagant. I can’t ept this.”


    Zoe’s smile faltered, her expression shifting to one of difort. “Miss N, it’s just a small token of appreciation. Tomorrow’s test results are crucial for ourpany, and we hope you’ll look favorably upon us.”


    “I will conduct the testing ording to the established standards,” N replied firmly, her resolve unyielding. “If everything is in order, it will pass. If there are issues, no amount of persuasion will change the oue.”


    Seeing N’s steadfastness, Zoe awkwardly retrieved the bag. “Then… I won’t disturb you any longer. Enjoy your evening.”


    As Zoe departed, N’s suspicions grew stronger. The eagerness to bribe her suggested there might indeed be serious issues with Skyray Medical’s medicinal materials.


    Feeling the weight of the day’s earlier confrontation with Damon, coupled with her foul mood, N barely touched her dinner before retreating to her room for the night.


    However, in the dead of night, she was jolted awake by a sharp, gnawing pain in her stomach. Curling into a tight ball on the bed, she felt cold sweat trickle down her brow. It dawned on her that her poor appetite had led to this re-up of her chronic stomach issues.


    With great effort, she managed to grab her phone and ordered stomach medicine through a delivery app, then called the hotel front desk. “Hello, could you please bring a pot of hot water to room 802?”


    “Of course, we’ll send someone right away.”


    But soon after hanging up, the pain intensified, leaving her unable to rise from the bed to answer the door.


    Ten minutester, a knock echoed through the room. “Miss N, your hot water has arrived.”


    Silence answered from within.


    “Miss N?” The staff member knocked again, more insistently this time.


    Still, there was no response.


    Just then, Spencer returned from downstairs, quickly realizing something was amiss. “What’s going on?” he inquired of the staff member.


    “This guest ordered hot water, but there’s been no answer when we knock,” came the worried reply.


    Spencer’s brow furrowed in concern as he pulled out his phone and called Damon. “Boss, I think something may have happened to Miss N.”


    Within five minutes, Damon burst through the door. He instructed the staff member to use a spare room key to gain entry.


    The room was cloaked in darkness. Damon flipped on the lights, revealing N curled up on the bed, her eyes shut tight, her face glistening with cold sweat. She appeared to be unconscious.


    “Spencer, call for a doctor immediately!” Damonmanded, rushing to her side.


    Just as he reached for her, N’s hand shot out, sping his tightly. Even in her unconscious state, she sought the warmth of his presence.


    Damon felt an unexpected tightness in his chest at her touch. Her hand was so small and cold against his.


    Twenty minutester, the hotel’s resident doctor arrived. After a thorough examination, he diagnosed her with acute gastritis.


    “She needs IV fluids,” the doctor stated while preparing the necessary medication. “This is due to hunger; there’s nothing in her stomach.”


    Once the doctor had set up the IV for N, he turned to Damon. “When she wakes up, give her some soup or something light to eat.”


    “Understood,” Damon replied, his focus unwavering.


    However, as he attempted to leave, he noticed that N’s hand remained firmly wrapped around his. Even in her sleep, she clung to him, unwilling to let go.


    Spencer, observing the scene, offered, “Boss, should I stay with her instead?”


    “No, it’s fine,” Damon replied, his gaze softening as he looked at N’s pale face. “You should get some rest.”


    And so, Damon settled into a chair beside her, keeping vigil through the night. Only as dawn began to break did N slowly stir, her eyes fluttering open.


    The first sight that greeted her was Damon’s handsome face, looming just inches from hers.


    “Ah!” N gasped, instinctively jerking back. Her head collided with the soft cushion at the head of the bed.


    “You’re awake,” Damon said, rubbing his neck, which had grown sore from the awkward position. “How do you feel?”


    It was only then that N became aware of the IV drip in her hand and the fact that she had been holding Damon’s hand the entire time. Her cheeks flushed crimson as she quickly released his grip.


    “Damon… I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to…” she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper. “I must have thought you were my mother or something…”


    His expression darkened further at her words. Mistaking him for her mother?


    With a scoff, he stood abruptly and exited the room without a backward nce, leaving N sitting alone on the bed, her heart racing with embarrassment and confusion.Conclusion
