CHAPTER 119

RENEE

It's not rare for Miles to actually follow through on his words, but this? This left me speechless. Imagine my shock when I checked my account and found the exact amount I sent to Adan sitting right there, untouched.

Determined to get answers, I drove straight to his office, pulling up to the glass-paneled building. As I stepped out, I adjusted my outfit and walked in with confidence, my heels clicking against the polished floors. A few employees acknowledged me with polite nods and murmured greetings, which I returned with a small smile before continuing on my way.

When I reached the front desk, Miles's new secretary—a tall, sharp-looking man—immediately stood up, offering me a respectful bow.

"Mr. Williams is currently in a video conference," he informed me, his tone polite.

I blinked at him, unimpressed. Did he expect that to change my plans? It wasn't like I needed permission to see Miles.
