Chapter 11: Chapter 11

Winter walked to the secretary's desk and, to her surprise, saw Iris, the sa secretary who had worked for Aiden.

"Iris!" Winter called her na, and Iris raised her head and was stunned.

"Winter? Wait, it's really you!" Iris got up from her seat and walked towards Winter. Iris hugged Winter as she hadn't seen her late boss' wife for so long. "How have you been? Congratulations on your wedding, by the way. Sorry I couldn't make it to your wedding, you know... invitation only..."

Winter smiled bitterly.

She had wanted to invite Iris to her wedding, but Camilla gaslighted Winter to let her do everything, including filling out the guest list.

And to her dismay, Camilla didn't even allow any of her friends and relatives to attend the wedding. She had even barred Winter's old mother from coming.

Winter had protested once she saw the guest list, but at that point, the damage had been done, and there was no way to rearrange the guest list when the wedding was in two days.

Among the few friends Winter had wanted there was Iris, Aiden's secretary, who was around her age. They beca close friends but gradually lost contact after Aiden's death.

Since then, she never heard from Iris anymore and lost contact with the only person who could give her information about what happened in the office.

Winter tried to lighten the mood by saying, "It's fine. The wedding was boring anyway, and the first night was dry. Just look at Sebastian, working the day after our wedding."

"Well, I was surprised too when I saw Mr. Saenz this morning," Iris said, managing a forced smile when Sebastian was brought up, trying to make it less obvious how much Iris disliked him. "Is everything alright, Winter? I an, with you and your new husband..."

"Oh, everything is just fine," Winter replied calmly, as it had been a template for her whenever soone asked about her relationship with Sebastian in her previous life.

On top of that, she didn't want to implicate Iris in this ss. Iris already had a family of her own, and she also had a child. So, it wasn't fair to put pressure on her when she was already busy with her job and family.

"I'm happy that you're still here," Winter continued. "I thought Sebastian would replace you with another secretary since you've been working here as Aiden's secretary before."

"About that—"Iris hesitated montarily, staring at Winter with a silent cry of help from her eyes.

"It's okay, you can tell ," Winter assured.

"Well... I've heard from the HR departnt that Mr. Saenz is searching for a new secretary, so I'm not sure how long I will stay in this company," Iris said. "But it's fine. Even if I get laid off, I can find another job imdiately. So you don't need to tell your husband about this, okay?"

"It's up to

whether I want to tell him to keep you as a secretary here or not," Winter said calmly. "But you should know that I consider you a friend, not just an employee. So I will never wrong you."

Iris didn't know what that ant. Of course, they were friends.

They had known each other for years, and Winter always asked Iris about Aiden's work before his death.

But she knew that statent ant sothing.

"I'm going to et with him now. He's in his office, right?"

"Yes, he's probably resting after a long eting in the morning," Iris inford. "Should I let him know you're here?"

"No need. I'm going to give him a surprise," Winter said. "Unless he has soone with him right now."

"Mr. Saenz is all alone. So you can always co in. You're his wife, after all," Iris reassured her.

Winter walked to the wooden door with intricate carvings. She stared at the tal plaque on the door.

Sebastian Saenz

CEO of Goldmine Realty.

She sneered at the inscription.

'It should've been Aiden's na on it. He is the true owner of this company. Just because Aiden is gone doesn't an Sebastian can change everything,' Winter seethed inwardly. 'But it's also my fault because I was too stupid to defend what Aiden gave .'

Winter pushed the door open, wanting to see so exciting scene before her.

Since that scoundrel already thought everything that Winter owned was already his, maybe she'd caught him having an intimate call with one of his mistresses, just like what she had witnessed in her previous life.

'Oh, that would be perfect, so I can catch him red-handed, and it will be a perfect ground to get an uncontested divorce while seizing more than half of Aiden's assets,' Winter thought.

That idea gave her glee, but to her disappointnt, all she saw was Sebastian sitting at the CEO's desk, reading and signing a stack of docunts one by one.

He was so absorbed in his work that he didn't notice Winter watching him for at least a minute.

"You don't need to order

lunch, Iris. I'm going to eat in a restaurant nearby before the eting," Sebastian said as he thought it was just his secretary asking if he wanted to eat sothing for lunch.

However, when he didn't get any polite answer as usual, he glanced up for a second, and his heart skipped a beat as he saw Winter standing near the door, wearing a black dress that made her look like she was attending a funeral.

"Winter..." Sebastian murmured her na absentmindedly. "Why are you here?"
