Tessa. His Tessa. A baby he didn\u2019t know about. A baby she never got to tell him about. A future that broke before it began. He staggered back, gripping the wall for support. His voice didn\u2019t come. His thoughts didn\u2019t come. Everything inside him shattered silently. The doctor continued, each word heavier than the last: \u201cAnd due to the trauma her body went through\u2026 it\u2019s unsafe for her to conceive for at least three years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dylan covered his face with his hands. Pain slammed into him \u2014 raw, merciless, suffocating. Tessa\u2026 my love\u2026 you suffered alone\u2026 and I wasn\u2019t there\u2026 But before he could speak\u2014 His security guard rushed to him, breathless, shaking. \u201cBoss \u2014 I investigated the car.\u201d Dylan lifted his head slowly, eyes hollow. \u201cWhat about the car?\u201d The guard hesitated, then said it: \u201cYour brakes were tampered with.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dylan\u2019s blood turned cold. The guard continued, voice tight with fear. \u201cSir\u2026 it was Victoria Hale. She planned for you to be in that car.\u201d Dylan felt something inside him snap. Victoria. His ex-employee. The woman obsessed with him. The woman he rejected publicly. The woman who vowed revenge. She tried to kill him. But Tessa\u2026 Tessa was the one who drove the car. Tessa was the one who took the hit. Tessa was the one lying unconscious inside that room. A ringing sound filled Dylan\u2019s ears. Anger, grief, guilt \u2014 everything crashed together.<\/p>\n

The world around him blackened. His vision blurred. His breath vanished. He whispered her name once \u2014 broken, shattered. \u201cTessa\u2026\u201d And the world went completely dark. Dylan collapsed to the floor. Chapter 57 \u2013 viCtoria hale trieS to eSCape Chaos swirled in Dylan\u2019s mind as he lay unconscious in the hospital corridor, the world fading in and out like a broken film strip.<\/p>\n

The conference room buzzed with tension. Charts, projections, and financial reports covered the screen at the front. Everyone knew the company was on the edge of a massive loss if the next decision went wrong. Dylan Frost sat at the head of the long glass table, calm but sharp-eyed as always. CEO of Frost Innovations, he was known for his precision \u2014 the kind of leader whose presence made people sit straighter. Across the room sat Tessa Morgan, quietly listening, her notebook open, pen tapping softly. She had joined the company just a year ago, and though brilliant, she rarely spoke in big meetings.<\/p>\n

Today, she could feel her heartbeat in her throat. One of the senior managers finished explaining a plan that, on paper, looked impressive \u2014 but Tessa could see the flaw instantly. If implemented, it would cost the company more than it could save. Dylan\u2019s voice cut through the silence. \u201cAny suggestions? Concerns?\u201d<\/p>\n

No one spoke. Tessa swallowed. And then\u2014she raised her hand. The entire room turned. \u201cYes, Tessa?\u201d Dylan asked, surprised. He remembered her as the quiet analyst with sharp eyes. Tessa stood slowly. \u201cSir\u2026 I think the proposed solution will actually cause a greater loss than we expect. But if we shift the partnership timeline and change the supply routing, we can reduce the cost by at least forty percent.\u201d The room blinked. People whispered. She continued, more confidently now. \u201cI\u2019ve run the numbers three times. The risk becomes minimal, and the savings are immediate.\u201d<\/p>\n

For a moment, there was complete silence. Then Dylan leaned back in his chair, staring at her as if seeing her for the first time. \u201cTessa, come to the front.\u201d She walked up, nervous but steady. Dylan projected her calculations onto the main screen. Within seconds, it was clear \u2014 she was right. Very right. The boss \u2014 Mr. Alden \u2014 stood up, clapping loudly.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis\u2014this is brilliant! This saves us millions. Everyone, a round of applause for Ms. Tessa Morgan!\u201d The room erupted with claps. Tessa\u2019s cheeks flushed as eyes turned toward her, impressed. Dylan smiled \u2014 a rare, genuine smile. \u201cWell done,\u201d he said softly when she returned to her seat. After the meeting ended and people began to pack their things, Tessa gathered her laptop, ready to escape the attention. But before she could leave, Dylan appeared beside her.<\/p>\n

\u201cTessa,\u201d he said. She looked up, startled. \u201cYes, Mr. Frost?\u201d He shook his head lightly. \u201cDylan. Call me Dylan.\u201d Her heart skipped a beat. He continued, voice warm but firm. \u201cI owe you dinner. You just saved my company from a disaster. Let me take you out tonight.\u201d Tessa blinked. Dinner? With him? \u201cI\u2014are you sure?\u201d<\/p>\n

she whispered. Dylan chuckled. \u201cAbsolutely.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
