At that very moment, Liam, Gwyneth, and Elizabeth found themselves frozen in place.The sudden appearance of Gwyneth caught Elizabeth completely off guard. Her initial startle quickly turned into relief, as if she had managed to accomplish two goals with a single stroke. This turn of events didn't seem so bad to her. Just as she was about to draw closer to Liam's comforting embrace, a powerful force abruptly pushed her away.Elizabeth's heart brimmed with reluctance, yet she clenched her teeth and forced a smile. "Hello, Ms. Glen. I apologize for being seen in such a state—"Before Elizabeth could finish her sentence, Liam interjected. "Gwyneth..." He took a step forward, reaching out as if to grasp Gwyneth's hand. However, Gwyneth subtly evaded him, retreating without leaving a trace. Her facial expression remained void of emotion, not even a flicker in her eyes.In a chilling tone, Gwyneth spoke, "It seems my timing couldn't be worse. I've interrupted your little moment, haven't

The change in tone of the company's CEO, Liam Luther, was palpable to everyone present. It was as if his mere presence compelled those who had been speaking moments ago to lower their heads and divert their gaze toward their own feet. While it made for a rather dramatic spectacle during the meeting, nobody wanted to be caught in the crossfire themselves.In fact, the others were right in their assumptions—Liam was indeed unhappy. It wasn't due to his employees holding differing opinions, but rather Porter's mention of Gwyneth during the meeting.Luther Corporation's success and prominence in the business world owed much to Liam himself. He always valued the opinions of his company's employees, even if it came from a janitor. But now, Porter had brought his own personal emotions to the meeting, obstructing the company's interests, and that had changed everything.Porter was taken aback by Liam's sudden shift in demeanor. His own heart trembled in response, but he had been engaged in

At that moment, Liam's facial expression remained indifferent since he perceived it as a trivial matter. However, unbeknownst to Elizabeth, she had made an indelible mark on the wounded Kingsley. It was this incident that had ignited a profound and passionate love within Kingsley for Elizabeth.Coming back to the present, Kingsley assured Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, rest assured, I won't let this slide, not at all."This was exactly what Elizabeth wanted to hear.Kingsley pressed on, "I'll make Gwyneth Glen pay ten times over for how she treated you!"Upon hearing this, Elizabeth immediately interjected, "Please, don't..." But deep down, she couldn't help feeling a sense of excitement. "Please don't go too far. She shouldn't lose her life over this."Frowning, Kingsley awaited Elizabeth's next words.Elizabeth continued, "Actually, she has always prided herself on her purity, which is why she behaves so arrogantly..."Kingsley immediately grasped the situation. "Well, if that's the c

After Judy finished speaking, Wanda looked up, her lips ready to form a response. However, in the end, she merely pursed them together and remained silent, holding her words back."Wanda, you're just too easy to push around," Judy remarked, slipping her arm through Wanda's as though they were the closest of friends. "Fresh out of college and you're a prime target. I feel so sorry for you.""Don't say that. The CEO has actually been quite kind to me..." Wanda's voice trailed off, choked with emotion."Kind? Then why did she assign a secretary like you to handle sales?" Judy's words echoed through the hallway, brimming with indignation. Her face took on a look of seriousness.When Wanda saw Judy's reaction, her emotions began to loosen their grip on her. A soft sigh escaped her lips, carrying a tinge of sadness. "Honestly, I don't get it either. It was just a simple mistake with a marker. Did she really have to treat me this way?"Judy couldn't help but smirk when Wanda voiced her g

Gwyneth's cold and mocking remarks caught Judy off guard, instantly dampening her good mood.Judy said, "Wouldn't it be more prudent to maintain a lower profile? You can barely keep your secretary now."In a matter of seconds, their eyes locked in a brief but tense exchange before they instinctively took a step back, putting some distance between them. Judy's expression turned malicious, her teeth grinding together, while Gwyneth let out a light, taunting laugh, her lips curling upwards.Two peaceful days drifted by, only to be shattered when Judy received bewildering news."What do you mean Wanda went back to being a secretary? Is it true?" As Judy stared at the female colleague from the HR department, who was standing before her, her skepticism etched on her face."Do you think I would lie to you about this? I was the one who handled Wanda's transfer." The colleague wore a sycophantic expression.Back when Judy held a managerial position, this HR staff member constantly showere
