Chapter 1674:
The tension in the office was palpable, with everyone sensing Nate's foul mood hanging in the air like a storm
cloud.
Although Corrine hadn't witnessed the incident firsthand, she could easily picture Nate's face—features
hardened into a mask of cold displeasure. One didn’t need insider information to imagine the chaos unfolding for
the company executives at that very moment.
Imagining Nate's bottled rage—spared from her but unleashed upon the hapless executives—Corrine couldn't
help but smile. “Is the situation truly that dire?” she asked, amusement lacing her voice.
Saul’s face creased with gravity as he nodded. “So, might you consider lifting his spirits when you see him
later?”
Only if Nate was in a favorable mood would his subordinates find any respite from the brewing storm.
Corrine reclined on the sofa in contemplative silence, her delicate fingers tracing lazy circles around the rim of
her cup. A subtle smile played at the corners of her mouth.
Inwardly, Saul let out a defeated sigh. Corrine had the audacity to smile? If not for her quarrel with Nate, the
staff wouldn't be walking on eggshells right now.
The conference room had beca crucible of anxiety, with the weight of tension pressing down on everyone
present. Indeed, when titans clashed, it was always the innocent bystanders who suffered the most.
As a subordinate, Saul knew exactly which words to speak and which to swallow. “Miss Holland, if there's nothing
else requiring my attention, I'll take my leave now.”

“Alright,” Corrine nodded.
As Saul neared the door, a thought suddenly struck her. “Don’t mention my presence to him just yet,” she called
after him.

Let it be a surprise.
Saul hesitated briefly before responding, “As you wish, Miss Holland.”
After his departure, silence descended upon the spacious office. Corrine set down her cup, Saul’s words still
echoing in her mind.
Despite Nate's disappointment that she had completely overlooked a day dedicated to expressing love, he had
directed no frustration toward her. Instead, he buried his discontent within himself.
How could such a stubborn man also be so impossibly endearing?
This thought coaxed a tender smile across Corrine’s face.
