Gwyneth laughed angrily at the receptionist's words. "Do you even have a good workplace environment here?" she said, no longer patient at the service. She did not intend to hold back since there was no reason for her to do so. Instead, she raised her eyebrows to show that she took no rejections. This was enough to make the girl at the front desk lose the argument.Looking at the staff's gaze, Elizabeth cursed to herself but finally opened her mouth because she needed to act as the good guy in the situation. "Ms. Glen, why would you argue with our front desk personnel? It's a little small-minded of you, don't you think?""So what you're saying, Ms. Lisle, is that you would just laugh about it if someone with a lower status than you comes up to you and pushes you down?"Gwyneth turned to look at Elizabeth and felt uncomfortable when she saw her fake smile."What kind of point are you trying to make, Ms. Glen? Don't forget that we're in Luther Corporation.""So what?" Gwyneth gritted
No one dared to doubt Liam's words. Even if Gwyneth were not the CEO of AMC Group, the staff of Luther Corporation would still agree with Liam no matter the proof."I'm sorry for my ignorance, Ms. Glen. I..." The employee at the front desk who was yelling earlier turned ashen. Her voice was trembling, and she could not speak clearly.Halfway through her sentence, the receptionist saw Gwyneth pick up the document again and said, "Mr. Walsh..." Her intentions were obvious.Liam's expression was filled with admiration as he gazed upon Gwyneth's powerful temperament and the stern look in her eyebrows. He then looked at Walter with a hint of hostility and said, "Make the final payment in full."Gwyneth glanced at Liam and thought, 'I guess he isn't so useless after all. I should've just asked for the CEO earlier. Maybe I could've gotten things done by now.'Everyone was silent for a while. Some of the workers who were standing on the sidelines returned to their positions after Liam arr
"How do you plan on dealing with this?" Gwyneth asked, sitting on the sofa in the CEO's office in Luther Corporation while she looked at the man sitting across from her indifferently."I will look into what happened and make the payment at the earliest convenience." Liam poured two cups of tea, put them on the table, and looked at Gwyneth with a hint of scrutiny. He had never seen Gwyneth in semi-professional attire before. She looked sharp but stunning."Alright. I'll be waiting to hear from you." Gwyneth rubbed her finger on the teacup's rim and got up, ready to leave. Liam subconsciously stood up, a little reluctant to let her go. "Do you wanna have lunch together?""I don't have the money to eat because my company has not received our payment yet, Mr. Luther. I'm not even in the mood to think about lunch right now," said Gwyneth.Things came to a resolution two days later because of her words.Gwyneth was signing some papers in her office when Wesley entered the room, looking
Liam felt uncomfortable after hearing Henry's mockery, but he knew he could not blame Gwyneth for being good at keeping her secrets. No one else was to blame but him."Hey! Have you ever seen me single?" Henry shoved Liam with a serious face full of dissatisfaction when Liam teased him back.Henry was someone Liam could call his friend in this circle of people.Henry owned a showbiz company. Although he seemed a little eccentric, his wisdom and skills were admirable when he was serious.Probably because his industry was different, Henry was never short of women, but he also never fell for them. According to his own words, life is like a playground.From his perspective, the bare minimum for a genuinely loving relationship stems from reciprocity from both sides. With this thought in mind, his gaze turned to Gwyneth uncontrollably. She was uninhibited and was always able to strive in her career. There was constantly a smile on her face. Pairing up with how she looked with the stride
Just a while ago, Henry witnessed the entire farce unfold before his eyes. After watching Liam walk away with Elizabeth, a mischievous impulse stirred within him. As soon as he saw Gwyneth finish her conversation with a CEO, he swiftly approached her."Ms. Glen, I'm Henry Munroe, the CEO of Euphoria Entertainment. It's been a while since I've heard your name. I'm genuinely thrilled to meet you today," he said.Upon hearing Henry's official and slick greeting, Gwyneth had already given him a low rating, though she found him somewhat presentable.Henry continued, "Ms. Glen, did you come to the banquet by yourself today? How about we go somewhere else? Let's have a private discussion about a business deal?"Until now, Henry hadn't paid close attention to Gwyneth. But now, they stood barely a foot apart. As he looked at Gwyneth's face right in front of him, his heartbeat skipped a beat. She wasn't drop-dead gorgeous, but she had a charisma and a poise that made her stand out in the cro
As they conversed, Gaspard led Patrick into the backyard garden of the banquet hall, creating a secluded space for their discussion. Their conversation remained private; no one knew what they discussed. Upon their return to the banquet hall, Gaspard effortlessly merged with the crowd, while Patrick made a direct path toward Gwyneth."Ms. Glen, it's a pleasure to meet you," Patrick greeted.Gwyneth furrowed her brows slightly as she examined the unfamiliar face before her. She glanced at Wesley, who shook his head, indicating that he too was clueless about Patrick's identity.Sensing Gwyneth's confusion, Patrick let out a hearty laugh, attempting to alleviate the awkwardness.The scene was somewhat amusing, to say the least. A man nearing his fifties feeling jittery in the presence of a woman in her twenties, despite both holding high-ranking positions."It's understandable that you don't recognize me. After all, I worked with Glen Corporation when your father was in charge," Patri
Wesley, noticing Gwyneth's exhaustion, quickly walked over to a corner of the office to brew a cup of coffee for both of them. Taking a moment to ease their fatigue, they refocused on their work.Throughout the process, Wesley never questioned Gwyneth or displayed any doubt. Over the years, he had remained faithfully by her side. His loyalty and obedience for her had become second nature to him. In his mind, Gwyneth was unquestionably worth it.While they were dealing with the mess left behind by Glen Corporation, an incident unfolded at the Glen residence.Ever since the disappointing outcome of the international piano competition, Judy had been struggling to recover emotionally. Feeling suffocated with no outlet, she turned to indulgent shopping sprees at the mall, using her credit card as an escape. Judy believed that splurging on luxury items would bring her happiness and help alleviate her bottled-up emotions. However, the result was an uncontrolled spending spree that maxed ou
Elizabeth's sudden embrace caught Liam off guard, causing him to furrow his brows. He wasn't fond of physical contact and would have pushed away anyone other than Elizabeth. Nonetheless, he took a step back.Just as Liam was about to push Elizabeth away, the door behind them swung open.Since the end of the banquet, Gwyneth had been eagerly anticipating returning to the Luther residence and getting some rest. However, due to Glen Corporation matters, she had been occupied for a long time.Once she had made some progress, she swiftly got into her car and hurried back. Little did she anticipate that upon pushing open the door, she would be confronted with this shocking scene.Gwyneth caught sight of Elizabeth's smug smile directed at her over Liam's shoulder. It was almost as if she was deliberately flaunting it.Gwyneth couldn't help but think, 'That woman seriously lacks any common sense.' She let out a sigh. She didn't care where Elizabeth was, but if Elizabeth was going to distu
