Past is back to haunt her

She had once cursed Thompson's company, hoping that they would become bankrupt, but her curse didn't work. 

Thompson company had developed so swiftly and established such a large office building.

Thinking of Lawnson and Erica, as well as the fact that they were living a carefree life with her father's shares, the resentment she had suppressed for four years surged within her like a raging tide.

If there ever came a day where she had the ability to do something, she would reclaim her father's shares.

She secretly made this vow in her heart.

The company's arranged apartment was nice. It was in a high-end residential area, and there was a private kindergarten in it, which was very suitable for residents who had children.

The company gave her a week off to rest before returning to work.

Leanor was ready to bring her son around this city and relax for a week.

However, after two days, an important client came to her company. Her boss called her to attend to an exclusive customer. The customer needs a ring for her four years anniversary with her husband. 

Leanor was a very famous designer among the rich because she had made beautiful and unique designs. 

When the phone call ended, the client was waiting for her in the company. She hadn't signed Liam to a kindergarten, she had planned to do that later during the week. 

"Liam, Mommy needs to attend to a very important client. You mustn't run around and must stay in her office okay?" Leanor warned him. 

"Mommy, don't worry, I'll not play around." Liam blinked his big watery eyes at his mom, staring at her seriously.

Leanor looked at her son's watery eyes, as well as his delicate face. People who had seen him had said he didn't look like her at all. 

Leanor felt bitter. He probably looked like his father. She couldn't remember the appearance of the man from that night.

It didn't matter whether he was ugly or short or tall.

She looked at her son, who was taller than an average three-year-old child. He was close to the height of a five-year-old child. 

He was unbelievably handsome, and she really felt that God had blessed her with his presence.

Her son's IQ was close to that of a genius. At such a young age, he was good at everything. He could speak both English and Spanish fluently from just watching shows. 

Her son could also do the assignment of her aunt's grandson who was in third grade. 

His IQ was unbelievable.

"Mommy, you are staring at me again. Am I that good looking?" Liam teased his mother.

Leanor kissed him on his forehead with a beautiful smile on his face. "I gave birth to you. Of course, you're good looking."

"Mommy, people say I don't look like you. And we don't look alike then I must look like daddy," Liam said happily.

Leanor's heart skipped a beat. She felt absolutely guilty as he lacked a father's love. She had really wished better…

"Maybe!" she said.

"So, as long as a man looks like me, he might be my daddy?" He said excitedly. His daddy was probably an enlarged version of himself.

Leanor pursed her lips into a smile and she lowered her head to look at her watch. "Alright, I'm almost late. Let's go!"

They took a cab to the company. The road to her company was very beautiful, each rows has different companies and organisations. 

Leanor got down from her car and tried to cross the road to her company but a very huge company caught her attention.

The unique aspect of this building was the three connected skyscrapers. It was like a huge pyramid, outshining the surrounding buildings.

Leanor glanced at Thompson's company, which was not far away. It was considered puny compared to this building.

Which company was this? It was outstanding.

"Wow! It's so beautiful!" Liam exclaimed in admiration. After all, he had already developed his own aesthetical values and appreciation of beauty.

Leanor's company was in a small building next to this building.

Even if it was just a small high-rise building, it still needed funds and proper maintenance. Leanor brought her son into the hall and got into the elevator. 

Her assistant, Liana, was waiting for her happily because she would have a proper time with liam.

"I'll leave Liam with you now. I am going to meet an important client. Please watch over him and don't let him run around," she said.

"Okay, Miss Morgan." Liana accepted the job happily. She was delighted to be with Liam.

"Liam, do you want candy? I can give you some." Liana took jellies from her desk to tempt him.

However, Liam frowned, making Liana puzzled. "I am no longer a child. I don't want candy."

"Not a child?" Liana suppressed her urge to laugh and looked at Liam's furrowed brow and burst out laughing. She couldn't hold it back. He was a very lovely child!

Leanor went to her boss's office immediately, her boss was a woman in her forties. She was a single mother and a divorcee like Leanor thereby making their connections stronger. 

"Leanor, I have seen this customer. She's a wealthy woman but very picky and might be difficult to deal with. Her requirements are quite high and unreasonable but the price she paid for our services exceeded our expectations. I hope you can work with her because the company value her so much” Laura said as soon as she saw Leanor enter her office. 

"Don't worry! Leave it to me. I promise that I will complete the task well," Leanor said confidently.

She was confident about her job.

"Alright, I'll leave it to you. She is waiting for you in the exclusive meeting room" Laura said.

"How should I address this customer?" she asked. She wanted everything to be in place. 

"Mrs. Thompson," Laura said.

The words "Mrs. Thompson" made Leanor tense up quickly. Her heart skipped a beat. She hoped Mrs Thompson won't be who she's thinking about. 

“There are many Mrs Thompson in the world.” She consoled herself.

No, please don't be her. She still didn't want to see anyone from the Thompson family. She has had enough.

Leanor prayed silently in her heart as she reached the meeting room.

When the company's secretary saw her coming over, she opened the door for her.

Leanor bit her lips, took a deep breath and stepped into the room.

When she looked up at the elegant woman sitting on the sofa, her heart stopped for a few seconds.

However, the person she didn't want to see the most was still in front of her. She really couldn't escape.

It was Erica Thompson.

When she spotted Leanor, she was shocked. How could Leanor become so beautiful over the years? 

Her red lips sprouted and she had an arrogant and mocking smile. "It's really you. I thought I saw the name wrongly."

Even if Leanor became more beautiful, she was still only able to work in a small company. That means she isn't doing well. 

Looking at Erica's face, the events that happened four years ago flashed across Leanor's mind again. 

Leanor clenched her fists tightly. She had tried her best to forget about the past and suppress her resentment. 

She thought of her son. Her only purpose is to be able to live a good life with her son. She didn't want any trouble for her little boy.

Leanor loosened her fists and forced a smile, she walked calmly toward Erica. "Hello, Mrs. Thompson. My name is Leanor Morgan. I'm the chief designer and will be in charge of designing your ring…can you give a brief details of how you want your ring to be?"

Erica was startled when she noticed her calm expression. She stared at Leanor in a piercing manner with her delicate eyes, as she tried to discern from her tranquil expression whether she was frustrated or embarrassed.

"Hmph, you're the former Mrs. Thompson, and you're now my jewelry designer.” She laughed. It seemed she was trying to make Leanor break. 

“Do you know what occasion I hired you to design for? Lawnson and I will be celebrating our fourth wedding anniversary. Two months after you left, I married him. Are you surprised?" she said, a mocking smile resting on her face. 

"Mrs. Thompson, do you have any special requirements? Or do you want to fully hand over the decision for the full design to me ?" Leanor asked.
