Esther was waiting in the CEO’s meeting room, not having met Levi yet. The receptionist told her to wait a moment—after all, Evander’s chief personal assistant was no ordinary person, and being able to see him already was a privilege, especially after that public slapdown of Chloe.

No sooner had the receptionist left than Esther’s phone rang. She was flipping through a magazine but answered casually. On the other end was Maris’s familiar voice: “Esther, since you’re no longer part of the Davenier family, you should file to have your last name changed.”

Change my last name?

Esther nearly couldn’t believe her ears. She stayed silent for a moment to calm down. “Change it to what?”

“As long as it’s not Davenier, you can pick any name you want…”

“I’m keeping Davenier!”

This time, Esther didn’t even let Maris finish. “Besides Davenier, I won’t take any other name!”

“But you’re not part of the Davenier family anymore. What’s the point of kee

    When Chloe got the message from Kendall, she was still fuming from being scolded by Alan. Ever since she came home, Alan had pinned huge hopes on her. Right out of the gate, he appointed her executive president of the company.Previously, Esther had only been a finance clerk—officially “starting from the bottom” since she wasn’t a biological daughter. Of course, the company’s key roles wouldn’t go to her. Even if Chloe never came back, he still had a son, so the family fortune was never meant for her.But when Chloe returned, Alan felt like heaven was smiling on him—two kids, a boy and a girl. He immediately handed her the executive president title, planning to retire soon and pass the chairman role to his son. That way, the family wealth would all stay “in-house.”Since his son was young and clueless, the real responsibility fell on his daughter. The moment Chloe took office, Alan entrusted her with the huge task of negotiating financing—trusting his own flesh

    The watch was strapped to her wrist and impossible to grab. Andrew tried to lift the girl to throw her out but before he could touch her, a gun barrel pressed against the back of his head.“Try moving if you’re not afraid to die.”“Bodyguard, you’re finally here! This bad guy knocked Auntie out, you have to avenge her!”Andrew: “…”His nose was swollen, knuckles busted, and he was the one who got beaten, okay? But there was no time to explain—At the gala, Levi hurried to the side of Evander, who was deep in conversation. He whispered, and his expression instantly darkened, his voice dropping to an icy tone.“Where is she now?”“She’s holding Miss Davenier’s legs, won’t let go, wants to wait for her to wake up.”After a beat, Levi added quickly, “Young Miss got scared. She thought Ms. Davenier was knocked out, crying and

    After Rowan caused such a scene, Chloe led the retreat, and with Ian’s words that Esther was his only invited partner for cooperation, those people surrounding Ian trying to cozy up for better loan rates quickly scattered. After all, no one would be stupid enough to knowingly risk their own interests by pushing themselves into a humiliating mess.Soon, within a meter’s diameter, only Ian and Esther remained.“Steady as ever. No wonder you’re Judy’s partner,” Ian said with a faint smile, raising his glass to clink with Esther’s. “If you agree to give me 10% of Nova Media’s shares, I’ll approve the bank loan, at a global lowest interest rate of just one percent. You’re happy, I’m happy…”“Well then, Chairman Yale, it’s better if you’re not happy!”Ian, confident in his negotiation, was cut off before finishing his sentence. He blinked, and the smile on his face slowly froze. “Esther, just because I said you were the only partner I invited, did you

    Rowan completely didn’t expect that Esther, having already been kicked out of the family, would still dare to be so arrogant as before. His face instantly turned pale. “Esther, will you leave or not? If not, I’ll call security…”“Call them if you want!”“Security, drag this person out!”Rowan’s voice shot up several decibels in anger as he jabbed a finger at her forehead. “This is a financial networking gala hosted by the Fallon family, not a refuge for stray cats and dogs. How did you manage to get in dressed like that?”“Sorry… sorry…”When the organizer and security rushed over and saw Esther’s face, they instinctively flinched, and the organizer’s voice stammered a couple of times.But the narcissistic Rowan didn’t notice the hotel manager’s odd reaction, thinking her apology was directed only at him, so he became even more arrogant.“No need to apologize, just kick this crazy woman out!”As he spoke, Rowan waved his hand i

    Esther only realized when she arrived at the gala that she hadn’t brought a formal dress. The event was already underway; going back to change was out of the question. She glanced down at her sleeveless dress—not exactly a gown, but not so out of place either.At this point, “good enough” had to do.But of course, “good enough” wasn’t good enough for everyone.“Esther?!”Chloe’s voice was filled with disbelief seeing her here now. “What are you doing here?”“And why can’t I be here?” Esther started to reply but got cut off.“Oh, I get it!”Before Esther could say anything, Chloe’s triumphant voice interrupted. “Kicked out by Evander, right?”A loud, mocking laugh escaped Chloe.Realizing this was likely true, she arrogantly cut Esther off. “I knew it. Evander wouldn’t give a second glance to someone like me, let alone you. That kind of guy? He plays the game but never goes all in. Don’t kid yourself.”The
