Raphael halted, casting a cold glance at Sharon.

"You're overthinking it," he stated before departing.

Sharon choked back tears and exclaimed, "Raphael, you can't deny it. You've rejected me all these years because you still love her, don't you? Now that you see her wealthy background, how could she ever return to you? She dumped you back then because she thought you were beneath her. She was just playing with you."

Raphael ignored her.

Later that afternoon, Sharon received a notice from the human resources department instructing her to relocate to the overseas branch for two years. Furious, she promptly phoned Kiley, Raphael's mother.
