The moment Aarush stepped out of the elevator into his law firm’s reception area, he felt every eye turn toward him. Phones were ringing, papers shuffling, whispers rising like a tide. Something was wrong.
But he already knew what.
He had seen Noah’s face—angry, terrified, vulnerable—just hours ago when the paparazzi scandal exploded across every major entertainment channel.
“CELEBRITY NOAH ROY SPOTTED WITH MYSTERY MAN”
“NOAH CAUGHT IN SCANDAL—SECRET LOVER REVEALED?”
“NOAH ROY’S HOLIDAY HOOK-UP SHOCKS FANS!”
And the worst headline:
“IS THE MYSTERY MAN AARUSH SEN? Sources Think So.”
Aarush clenched his fists. He had survived court battles, corporate wars, and ruthless lawyers. But this—this was personal. This wasn’t a case he could detach from. This was Noah.
And Noah was hurting.
