Astern reprimand reverberated through the room, bringing an abrupt end to the commotion. Only Ariana, composed and unyielding, seized the opportunity to retrieve the fallen documents before raising her eyes.
It was Adrian.
Adrian’s arrival didn’t go unnoticed; many people in the room recognized him and immediately straightened up, no longer daring to watch whatever they were previously occupied with.
For those unfamiliar with Adrian amidst the group surrounding Ariana, his mere presence exuded an intimidating aura, causing them to fall silent and freeze in their actions.
Ariana patted the dust off the documents and stepped aside, making way for Adrian.
Donna, who had been quietly observing from the sidelines, could no longer feign ignorance when she saw Adrian approaching. She hastily took a few steps forward, positioning herself in front of him with a forced smile as she obsequiously inquired, “Mr. Perkins, what brings you here today all of a sudden?”
Adrian glanced at her and sneered, “What? Do | need to report my visit to you when | come to inspect my own company?”
“No, no, no. That's not what | meant. What | meant to say was that we were not informed about your visit. Had we been aware, we could have arranged a proper reception for you,” Donna quickly clarified. Under Adrian’s gaze, Donna grew nervous, beads of sweat forming on her forehead. She swiftly Lowered her head and offered an apology.
Adrian paid her no mind, his mocking gaze sweeping across the faces of the people who had previously surrounded Ariana. He chuckled sarcastically, “Even in a company of this size, the common areas can be so chaotic. This blatant workplace bullying truly opens my eyes. It seems necessary to reorganize things from top to bottom.”
A hush fell upon them, enveloping them in silence. No one dared to utter a word; it was clear that Adrian was on the verge of losing his temper. The fear of drawing attention gripped everyone in the room.
Just then, Donna interjected, seemingly attempting to take credit, “Adrian, you've got it all wrong. It was her mistake that led to her suspension, and she’s no longer a part of SJ Entertainment.”
Adrian’s expression grew dark. He glanced at the identification card hanging from Donna’s neck and raised an eyebrow. “Director? With the department in chaos, no one has come forward to intervene. Are you truly deserving of your position? The sheer absurdity of the company became painfully apparent. Perhaps it’s time for you to start by reorganizing yourself,” he added, his tone Laced with criticism.
Donna froze instantly, fear coursing through her veins as beads of cold sweat formed on her forehead.
Rather than pressing further, Adrian inquired, “Is Darian present?”
Donna breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly replied, “Yes, he’s here.
He’s in the CEO’s office. Allow me to show you the way.”
She hustled Adrian ahead, and as they passed Ariana, he halted briefly, his voice softening, “My condolences.”
Ariana was momentarily taken aback, but swiftly donned a sorrowful expression. In an instant, her eyes reddened, and she bowed her head to wipe away tears.

Once Adrian moved on, Ariana slowly lifted her gaze, discreetly studying his retreating figure.
Adrian seemed to have had a connection and friendship with Theodore in the past. Ariana wondered if he had any inkling of Theodore’s plans, and if so, how much he truly knew.
She couldn’t determine whether she could place her trust in him or not.
Lost in contemplation, Ariana couldn’t shake the unease that clung to her, feeling trapped in a web of uncertainty where trust eluded her.
In the CEO’s office, Darian Lounged in the plush office chair, a victorious grin lighting up his face. He toyed with the trinkets scattered across Theodore’s desk, assuming the posture of a conqueror.
Meanwhile, he unabashedly rifled through Theodore’s computer, scrutinizing the contents of various documents and files.
Aknock resounded through the door, and a man entered, clutching a stack of papers in his hands.
