Chapter 557

ผู้เขียน: Sammie Snow
Xena’s eyes immediately filled with tears.

“Fiona, fine. I won’t go in your place. But can I at least come with you?”

She sounded completely sincere.

“If I can learn something from the meeting, I’ll be able to help you more at work in the future.”

Seeing that Xena didn’t appear to be making excuses, Fiona’s anger eased somewhat.

“You’d better mean that. And don’t try anything. If you cause trouble, I really will punish you.”

“I won’t!”

Xena nodded eagerly.

“All right. It’s getting late.

    Otherwise, with Fiona’s temper, the situation could easily spiral out of control.Lucas understood what Maya meant and stepped aside.Xena and Blake had gone out of their way to attend, so Lucas knew they had an agenda.Whatever they were planning, he had no intention of letting them interfere with the project.Xena swept past him with her chin held high.Good thing she had found a way to keep Fiona away from the meeting.If Fiona were here, she would probably start going easy on Lucas again, and Xena had no interest in watching that happen.So Lucas wanted to use this project to prove himself to the Quinn family?She wasn’t going to make it easy for him.Without giving Lucas another look, Xena and Blake headed straight for the front row and took their seats.Their arrival immediately drew attention.Shaw Corporation’s main business had very little to do with the project, so most people hadn’t expected them to show up at all.And yet Xena herself had come.That alone made

    Despite his apology, Blake’s dark eyes remained fixed on Lucas, a faint challenge in his gaze.So what if they had shown up late on purpose?Shaw Corporation was here as an investor. Blake doubted Lucas would dare make an issue out of it.Lucas studied the man in front of him.Blake had changed a lot.Just a few months ago, he had been a struggling actor whose career had been going nowhere, with Zac making his life even harder.Now, only a few months later, he had become Fiona’s personal assistant.Everything about him, from the way he dressed to the way he carried himself, was different.Lucas only wished Blake’s face didn’t resemble his so much.Every time he looked at him, something about it bothered him.Maya glanced at Lucas, silently asking what he wanted to do.Shaw Corporation was a major name in Jasper City, so she had been surprised to see them on the investor list in the first place.Still, Fiona herself hadn’t come.That eased some of Maya’s concern.As long a

    Most of the companies had already decided roughly how much they were willing to invest.Some of the executives who had expressed interest were mainly looking for a chance to build connections with the government officials involved in the project.They had no intention of attending the meeting themselves.Instead, they handled the government side directly and sent their project leads to represent their companies.Each representative came with an investment range already approved by their company.Lucas’s job was to evaluate the interested companies, decide which ones were the best fit, and finalize how much each would invest.He stood outside the conference room greeting everyone as they arrived.Tall and broad-shouldered, he was hard to miss.Quite a few of the project leads recognized him.Some had even worked with him back when he was still at Shaw Corporation.Seeing him here representing the Quinn family came as a surprise.After all, Lucas and Fiona’s eight-year relatio

    Xena’s eyes immediately filled with tears.“Fiona, fine. I won’t go in your place.

And don’t try anything. If you cause trouble, I really will punish you.”“I won’t!”Xena nodded eagerly.“All right. It’s getting late. Let’s go.”Fiona checked the time and frowned.Mandy was supposed to have arrived at the Shaw estate by now to pick her up.Why wasn’t she here yet?Fiona was about to call when Mandy’s name appeared on her screen.She answered immediately.“Mandy, where are you?”“Ms. Shaw...”Mandy’s voice sounded weak.“I don’t think I can go to the meeting with you today.”Fiona’s expression changed.“What happened?”“I think I ate something bad. My stomach is killing me, and I can’t stop running

    Xena walked into the living room and dropped into the chair beside Fiona.“Fiona, let me go to the investor meeting in your place.”Ever since Fiona’s surgery, Xena had completely changed her ways.She no longer spent her days shopping, partying, and going out with friends.Instead, she had begged Fiona to give her a position at Shaw Corporation and was now working as a marketing manager.The job kept her busy, but she found the work surprisingly fulfilling.And only after she started working herself did she realize just how much pressure Fiona had been under all these years.“Xena, this meeting is important. Stop messing around.”Fiona’s tone was stern.But Xena wasn’t intimidated.She wrapped both hands around Fiona’s arm and gave it a playful shake.“I’m not messing around!“I already looked into it. Most of the companies attending are sending their project leads. There’s no reason the CEO has to go in person.”She gave Fiona an eager look.“Let me handle it. I’ve been

    “Yes, Ms. Shaw. I’ll take care of it.”Mandy gathered the stack of documents from Fiona’s desk and left the office.When she got back to her own desk, she found Blake waiting for her.Judging by the look of things, he had been there for a while.“Blake, did you need something?”Blake handed her a stack of printed documents.“These are the files you asked me to help with yesterday. I finished organizing them ahead of schedule.”“That fast?”Mandy took them with a pleasantly surprised look and flipped through the pages.Once she confirmed that everything was in order, she smiled.“Thanks, Blake. When this project wraps up, lunch is on me.”As fellow assistants, Mandy had always respected Blake’s ability at work.As for anything beyond that, she stayed out of it.Blake smiled.“This is for the Quinn family’s government project, right? Ms. Shaw decided to invest?”“Yeah, it’s confirmed. I’ll be attending the investor meeting with her. I’ll need to hand a few of my other task

    After visiting Zac at the hospital, Fiona went straight back to the company the next day.In the CEO’s office, Fiona sat behind her desk, a trace of exhaustion showing on her cool, beautiful face.She closed her eyes, rubbed the space between her brows, and called out instinctively, “Lucas, get me

    “Mr. Lucas York, do you take Ms. Fiona Shaw to be your wife? Do you promise to care for her, accept her, and stand by her through every season of life, whether in good times or bad, in sickness and in health?”“I do.”Lucas stood in a sharp black suit, his tie perfectly straight. A faint, gentle s

    Fiona narrowed her eyes at Lucas, looking completely unconvinced.Pain stabbed through Lucas’s chest, so sharp he could barely breathe.So she knew.She had always known he had loved her for so many years. She had known he was willing to do anything for her.And still, she had thrown his love aw

    After Fiona tore into him, Lucas had been too stunned to say a word.But the truth was, he had never wanted luxury gifts.He only wanted to know that she had thought of him while she was away.Even the smallest, most meaningless thing would have made him happy.But she had never given him even t
