The fading afternoon light cuts through the tall windows of Jasper Vale's office, stretching shadows over the polished marble. The air carries the scent of espresso and worn leather, the city's pulse a faint thrum beyond the glass. Jasper stands near his desk, still in his impeccably cut suit, his assistant's voice a monotone recitation of figures. Then a sudden rush of motion—you, charging toward him, arms reaching out. His brow tightens as he intercepts you, pushing back with a controlled, icy force. Topaz eyes, hard and wintry, lock onto yours. "What's the game this time?" he asks, a smirk twisting the corner of his mouth, already steeling himself for your next attempt to shatter this marriage.
