Alex, the hunter's trainer, had a single motive for assisting Zoe. She had promised to pay him in exchange for helping her with anything she required. Alex was in dire need of money due to his gambling debts, and the salary he earned from taking care of the Cadell's cabin was insufficient. This is why he was willing to obey Zoe's orders regardless of the consequences."All I have to do is send the video to a reporter and inform them that Miss Victoria Red is cheating on Mr. Martin. It's incredibly simple."With a laugh, Alex began dialing a reporter's number. After a few rings, the reporter answered the phone."Hello. I have a tip for you.

Gray headed to the grocery store to pick up some ingredients. He and Victoria had plans to catch up this weekend to discuss their agreement. However, Gray was more eager to hang out with her than to focus on the deal."I forgot to check if she has any allergies," Gray muttered as he examined a ripe tomato. "Maybe I should ask her about it?"As he strolled through the aisles, Gray absentmindedly scrolled through his phone. Unfortunately, he accidentally bumped his cart into someone else's."Oops, my bad!" the other shopper quickly apologized.Gray glanced ahead and uttered, "No worries. It's actually my fault for not paying attention. I'm so..." His words trailed off as he realized who was standing in front of him. "Miss Nadia?"Nadia squinted her eyes at the attractive man before her. "Gee?"As they recognized each other, they decided to head to a nearby coffee shop after finishing their grocery shopping."It's been ages, hasn't it?" Nadia remarked with a smile.Gray, who Nadia knew a

"Do you happen to remember a girl named Vic?""Of course. She was my first love."The fork slipped from Victoria's grasp, creating a loud clinking noise as it landed on the plate.As she gazed at Gray's attractive face, she couldn't help but question if she had heard him correctly.It had been years since their initial encounter, and Victoria couldn't recall all the interactions she had shared with Gray. But how did a handsome man like him fall for a girl like her?'I've always had a plain face. I was taller than my peers, and many thought I had a boyish vibe. Even when I worked as a bodyguard, my colleagues never saw me as a woman. How did I become Gray's first love?'It remained a mystery to her. She understood the concept of love, but she had never experienced someone having a crush on her until Gray expressed that she was his first love.It gave her awkward and awesome feelings at the same time."So, how did you know what I looked like before?" Gray asked, interrupting Victoria's

Zoe was getting increasingly anxious as she paced back and forth in her room, clutching her phone."Why hasn't he responded yet? I already sent the money!" she exclaimed.She was eagerly waiting for Alex's reply, as they had planned to expose Victoria's affair with the video he had filmed.But there was still no news about Victoria, and Alex hadn't given his response."This was supposed to be my way of getting back at that woman," Zoe muttered under her breath.Finally, after what felt like an eternity, she received a message from Alex's number. With excitement, she quickly opened the message and started reading its contents.["I'm really sorry, Miss Zoe. Unfortunately, I won't be able to continue working with you. I've been feeling really guilty ever since Sir Martin had that accident. But don't worry, I'll still keep my promise and won't reveal anything.

When Victoria arrived home, her parents immediately approached her in a rush."Where were you?!" her father, Emmanuel, asked. "Things got crazy because of the scandal. And you just disappeared out of nowhere?"Sabby, her mother, added, "What's this scandal all about? And now there are videos of you helping children at the orphanage.""Please tell me the affair isn't true. The man in the video is Martin, not Mr. Gray. Confirm that for me," Emmanuel demanded.Where should Victoria even begin to explain? She knew her parents wouldn't be happy if she admitted that the man in the video was actually Gray, not her fiancé. Plus, the sudden appearance of her helping at the orphanage was unexpected."Actually," Victoria started, but before she could finish her sentence, someone interrupted her, cutting her off mid-thought."What's the matter with the news?" Victoria's twin brother, Mikhail, chimed in, his tone nonchalant as he glanced at their parents. "Sure, my sister may have lost her memorie

"Sir. It's me, Vic. Come I come in?""Enter."A woman dressed in black entered the room. The scent of paperwork and books enveloped her as she looked at her boss, Martin Cadell, the young Chairman of Crimson Corporation.Martin remained focused on his laptop, not bothering to glance up as she walked in. His attention was clearly elsewhere, highlighting that he was busy."Are you here to submit your resignation letter once again?" Martin asked without facing her.Vic anxiously bit her lower lip.
