The chill in the man’s aura seemed to grow colder, like the frost on a winter’s morning.
Outside the elevator, Noah was blissfully unaware of the icy tension building inside.
Hearing. Brielle’s response, he mistakenly thought his concern had not gone unnoticed,
and he doubled. down on his effort. “Hey, I heard you hurt your leg. I know this top–notch
doc. Want me to take you over after work?”
Others from the company’s upper echelon were also outside the elevator, but Noah didn’t
bother to hide his intentions. His pursuit of Brielle was public knowledge, and so would be
the eventual breakup. After all, the only one who would face embarrassment was Brielle.
Noah planned to make the breakup a spectacle, hoping to gain some points with Alivia.
With that thought, he felt quite pleased with himself.
Brielle, on the other hand, found Noah irksomely verbose. She couldn’t remember finding
him this annoying before. She frowned, aware that many eyes were upon them.
Surely, with Max trapped as well, the executives had all come to show their concern. Was
Noah putting on a show for the whole crowd?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUsing the light from her phone, she noticed a slight furrow in Max’s brow, suggesting he
was also growing tired of Noah’s persistence.
“Brielle, that doctor is really good.” Noah was now feeling relentless and noticed the
murmuring of the e executives around him. All except for the HR Director and the Finance
Director, who seemed at a loss for words.
Both were aware of Brielle’s relationship with the CEO. Was Noah brazenly hitting on the
boss‘ mistress? They looked at Noah with a mix of pity and disbelief, but he was
preoccupied with winning Brielle over and took no notice.
“There’s this great steakhouse not far from the clinic, with a view overlooking all of
Beaconsfield from the window seats. Interested, Brielle?”
Brielle felt a headache coming on but kept her cool. “Thanks for the offer, Mr. Noah, but
it’s not necessary.”
As she finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. Seeing Max, Noah reluctantly
greeted him with respect, “Mr. Dorsey.”
Max’s expression was frosty: his gaze was like a sheet of ice. For a moment, Noah felt as
though that look could shatter him.
Brielle ignored the tension between the two men. She felt a wave of dizziness from the
sudden descent and took a moment to regain her composure before speaking politely. “Mr.
Dorsey, I’ll be back at work as soon as my leg heals. I should head out now.”
Max’s lips pressed into a thin line, managing only a curt, “Hmm.”

Watching Brielle leave, Noah hastily followed, “Brielle, you’re injured. Let me drive you
home. It’d be bad if the wound got infected.” He shadowed Brielle closely, reaching out to

Patrick was tasked by Max, nodded, and approached Brielle.
Brielle, noticing Noah’s persistence, finally stopped. “Mr. Noah, I thought I made myself
clear last time.”
She had been blunt when Noah bizarrely delivered flowers to her department. Why was he
intensifying his efforts now?
Noah smiled, a calculating look in his eyes that didn’t sit well with Brielle. She trusted her
