Men were falling head over heels to be with her, but Zach had captured her heart like no other. For the first time, she had experienced the pain of rejection. When not around him, her mind was filled with thoughts of him. If she did not keep herself busy, he became all she could focus on. She had hoped she could move on.

He doesn't look at Jadie like that. Maybe Zach sees Jadie as just family. If Madelyn goes through with the wedding, | might still stand a chance. The Arnold family's influence far outweighs Zach's. No matter Mom's opinion, | have a way of making things happen." At Arnold Corporation, Leyton debated sharing crucial news with Ethan, worried Ethan might be too soft-hearted.

If it meant safeguarding the corporation's future, he was ready to shoulder any consequences.
Leyton knocked and then entered the office, carrying a prepared thousand-word document. Inside, he saw Ethan in a blue shirt and black dress pants, standing by the expansive window with one hand in his pocket.

Leyton asked, "Mr. Amold?" Ethan quickly said, "I need to step out. You handle the meeting and update me afterward.” Leyton had caught bits of Ethan's earlier conversation and knew Donna was stirring up trouble.
"You can't go chasing after her again,” Leyton cautioned. "Think about what it would mean for Ms. Jent."
