The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 1392

She knew Chloe was doing this on purpose to force her to quit. But she refused to lose. She wouldn't let Chloe look down on her or let all her hard work go down the drain.

The sky outside the window darkened.

One by one, her colleagues left until Kirsten was the only one remaining.

She rubbed her aching temples, stood up to grab a cup of water, and took a slow sip.

The clock on her desk read ten at night. She was only halfway done, and the framework for the legal analysis report hadn't even been started.

She sat back down and buried herself in the work. When hunger struck, she took bites of an energy bar. When she was thirsty, she sipped her water. When exhaustion threatened to pull her under, she splashed cold water on her face.

She stayed awake the entire night.

By daybreak, the files were meticulously organized. A thick legal analysis report rested on top, its formatting flawless and every data point triple-checked against the legal codes.

Leaning back in her chair, she closed her eyes as a suffocating wave of exhaustion washed over her.

Having skipped meals and sleep, her stomach clamped in painful knots, and dark spots danced in her vision.

She knew she was pushing her limits. Rubbing her temples one last time, she prepared to stand and wash her face to tackle the new day.

Just then, the office doors swung open. Kaylee, the Legal Director, walked in with a familiar figure trailing right behind her.

Kirsten froze.

Gian Atwood stood tall in a perfectly tailored black suit. His handsome features were composed, radiating a cool, commanding aura.

His gaze swept the room and landed on Kirsten. A flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes, quickly melting into sheer heartache.
