Though he was smiling and his tone seemed friendly. Adeline fell a chill run down her spine
Internal panic mode activated[]
She was so screwed []
His reaction, combined with those dark circles under his eyes from lack of sleep, told her everything. He Had Seen The Text[]
Adeline’s smile fraze on her face. She couldn’t meet his eyes, so she looked down, clearing her throat awkwardly…I slept okay. But I had a bit to drink last night. Was completely out of it, seeing double, you know how it is. Ha ha
Zarek’s expression turned cool]
The smile vanished completely []
His eyes took on an unsettling gleam. “Alcohol Isn’t an excuse“]
Adeline:
No, really, when I drink my vision gets really, really bad. My ringers don’t cooperate at all. It’s like… it’s like…” She searched for the right description “Like my body was possessed
Zarek gave a short, dubious laugh. “Keep the excuses coming “[]
Adeline…. 1
Her expression turned earnest, as if making a solemn vow: “It was honestly just a typot“]
Even half–asleep, she would never have called him “baby” intentionally. There was only one explanation: her brain and fingers had miscommunicated.]
Zarek seemed tired of her denials. “No need to explain further. If you’re brave enough for a ‘typo‘ now, next time It’ll be a verbal ‘slip. Refusing to own up to your actions isn’t very professional, Ms. Paige.”
He was looking at her like she was someone who’d gotten what she wanted and then pretended It never happened.[]
Adeline felt close to cardiac arrest.
Walt–he seriously thought she’d done it on purpose?]
She wasn’t suicidal enough to flirt with him intentionally. Did he think she had a death wish?]
Rex and Liam listened with completely bewildered expressions.]
If they remembered correctly, Adeline had said she would go straight to the office. Why had she come upstairs instead?]
Neither of them understood what was happening
Zarek dabbed his mouth with a napkin. “Ms. Paige didn’t come all the way up here just to say good morning and explain her.., typo, did she?]
As he spoke, he rested his hand near his phone, his long fingers tapping lightly.[]
Adeline’s heart stuttered at the gesture
Did he know she’d come to delete the evidence?]
She set the strawberry mousse cake she’d been clutching onto the table. This cake is really delicious. That’s all I wanted to say. Goodbye.
She turned to leave immediately
“Sunce you’re already here, why run away? Come back,” Zarek called after her.[]
Adeline froze nud–step []
She turned around and reluctantly walked back, steeling herself.[]
Zareh asked Lam to open the cake and bring it over.[]
He took a small taste, then pulled out lus phone and started taking photos. After a moment, he made a small sound of dissatisfaction. “Ms. Paige, come help me take these pictures.]
Res and Liam exchanged confused glances []

Adeline served a trap!]
She could practically smell the devious mortunations of this ruthless capitalist []
The moment he handed her las phone, divine Inspiration struck This was the perfect opportunity to destroy the evidence

HOLY SHIT![]
Liam, being more composed, simply smiled like a proud father and was the first to hit the like button]
Adeline noticed Rex’s expression of existential dread. “What’s wrong?
Rex covered his face with one hand, as if unable to bear the sight, and extended his phone toward her “See for yourself. 1)
Adeline took one look and was left speechless []
Zarek had posted a photo grid of the strawberry cake with no caption, but he’d added an emoji… a yellow round face with closed o
It would have been a perfectly normal emoji for anyone else, but coming from Zarek… It was jarring beyond belief‘]
What exactly was he being shy about 27
Zarek stood up. “Let’s go to the office. “[]
He walked out.]
Rex and Adeline followed
In the elevator[]
Adeline stood behind Zarek, staring at his back.[]
eyes and a shy smile. []
She realized her perception of her new boss had been too rigid and limited. When he wasn’t being cold and aloof… he could be downright mischievous.]
And completely unconcerned about the mental health of others.[]
Rex was still fixated on the emoji. In the elevator, he couldn’t help leaning close to Zarek’s ear. “Sir, did you use the wrong emoj!? That one means ‘shy. Fearing Zarek might not understand, he added. “Like, teenage girl shy
Zarek’s expression remained cool. Is that so? Oh well, maybe it was a typo.
Adeline’s eyes widened in disbelief. “…?!!“]
No way!
Not
He’d been waiting for her! He was… he was… completely insane![]
Rex tried again “Would you like me to help you change it?“]
Before their collective sanity was destroyed. It was genuinely disturbing.[]
Zarek: “I won’t change it.“]
Rex wanted to say he knew how to fix it, but one glimpse of his boss’s darkening expression made him shut his mouth
Adeline felt her soul leaving her body.]]
He was truly messed up.
Seriously MESSED UP
On the way to the office. Adeline and Rex were as quiet as church mice.[]
Meanwhile, Zareit’s post was causing mass hysteria online.[]
Someone who never posted suddenly sharing something was bizarre enough.]
But the combination of a sweet strawberry cake and a shy emoji from someone with his personality? People were losing their minds.]
The comment section exploded, direct messages poured in, and calls wouldn’t stop]
Especially from his siblings

Bro, if you’re dating someone, type 2.1)
“bro, if you’ve gone insane, type 3.1
