“She-did she just tear the cheque in two? Is she crazy?” “Crazy? She’s a fool! Someone just handed her a platter of gold with her life on it and she chose to melt the gold in a furnace!” “I’m not exactly sure what will happen to her, but I know it’ll be bad.” Anna’s eyes darkened in rage. “What did you just do?” Taylor placed the one half on the other and laid it beside her before retorting, “I tore it.” Anna clenched her fist tightly and glared hard at her. “Why did you do that? Are you deliberately provoking me to anger?” Taylor shook her head and said seriously, “Don’t get me wrong, I would never. I only did what I did because there was no need for it.” “A blank cheque to get away from Mr. Sanchez which would entail me to resign my job and leave the city? There’s totally no need for that.” Anna snickered and raised a brow, “Why? Do you plan to resign and leave the city without taking anything from me?”Taylor chuckled, “Of course not.” The smile on Anna’s face slowly disap

In Andrew Solution, Taylor pushed the whispering going around the company to the back of her mind and focused on her work. When it was a few minutes from when she closed from work, someone walked to her desk. “Junior consultant, the department director is holding a department dinner this evening. Everyone is mandated to be there.” “A department dinner?” Taylor repeated and raised her head to look at the person, already planning to reject the offer only to see her hurriedly walking away. Three minutes after she left, Taylor picked up her phone and opened her phone book. Andrew had made her delete every number she had saved. So the only number she now had was his. So she stared at his phone number in her phone book for several minutes. It’d be rude of her not to go to the department dinner, but she’d have a worse fate in store for her if she attended the dinner without Andrew’s permission. After hesitating for a long time, she tapped the number and called. She listened to it in t

Anna’s expression changed drastically as she turned to Samuel beside her. Samuel ignored the curious eyes on him as he went ahead to grill the meat in silence. Anna swallowed a lump and glanced at Taylor in irritation. “Junior consultant, it’s your first time eating such an expensive dish. Despite how it looks to you, you should take a bite from it. As for grilled meat, you can always eat them every other day.”Taylor sensed the irritation in her voice and smiled at her apologetically, “My apologies, it’s not exactly the food. I’m just allergic to peanut. And it seems to be seared all over my meal.” “If it were an allergy I could control, I would’ve tried to take a bite from it. However, that isn’t the case. So I’d hate to bother everyone by having them see me break out in hives before spending the rest of their evening transporting me to the hospital.” “What are you apologizing for? Allergies can’t be controlled. You can’t eat peanut, but you can eat meat, can’t you?” Samuel but

Taylor woke up early the next morning and the first thing she did was check her phone to know what was going on with Daniel. She found a live video of the hospital and clicked on it. Elizabeth’s face immediately popped into her sight wearing the doctor’s white lab coat under her sleeping wears. It was a live interview with a lot of reporters as swarming around the hospital. “We waited for you here all night but there was no sight of you. We’re all very well aware the surgery only lasted three hours and you were not supposed to be at work yesteday.” “So I have two questions for you. Why were you at Beating Hearts Hospital? You came to the hospital in your sleeping wear, were you preparing to sleep before the accident happened? If yes, why were you in such a hurry to leave the house that you forgot to change out of it?” The camera zoomed in on Elizabeth’s face. The bags underneath her eyes were now obvious and the fatigue on her face couldn’t be mistake. In the chat room, Taylor

Andrew left hours before she woke up and she had dinner in silence like she did the day before. Gael drove her to work and when she entered the reception, she realized no one was staring at her like they had done yesterday.They were rather all nervous and anxious. When she got to her department, no one still paid any attention to her. “Hey, have you seen the news about Daniel Holt? I heard he’s currently unconscious but now out of harm’s way.” “Why do you care about news about Daniel Holt when there’s a more pressing issue?” “Huh? Pressing issue? Is the company going bankrupt?” “Not that kind of pressing issue. Listen closely. A reliable source from the Media Department overheard that President Radford’s wife is working in the company.” “How is that possible? We would’ve long heard of it the moment she came in.”“That’s why it’s weird. I remember he got married and the internet carried the news and the name of his wife, now I searched up the news about his marriage on the inter
