Love, Amnesia, and Lies Chapter 9
The one who had done wrong was clearly Lisa. What right did she have to accuse me?My ex-colleagues thought her words were too harsh and began talking over one another, explaining everything to me.Only then did I learn that over those seven days, Lisa had squandered company funds recklessly.Now, the ten million in compensation couldn't be paid back, and other partners were canceling their contracts one after another, demanding damages from the company as well.Anthony was already entangled in lawsuits. If he couldn't come up with the money, he would be going to prison.So that was why things had blown up. No wonder she was panicking.But what did any of this have to do with me?I couldn't be bothered to respond.When Anthony heard what Lisa said, he immediately turned his face away, his eyes reddening.Seeing the situation change, the others started persuading me again."Yes, Mr. Pickett was a bit reckless, but there's really nothing between him and Lisa. Nothing happened a
Love, Amnesia, and Lies Chapter 8
At the wedding, I stayed busy helping my friend with everything, and she never once asked about what had happened earlier.It wasn't until things finally settled down that I had time to check my phone.Only then did I realize that news of the company's troubled project had already spread through our social circle.Anthony could no longer stay idle. On one hand, he had to placate the client; on the other, he had to quell the shareholders' fury.The person who was suddenly running himself ragged was him.During that time, Anthony sent me several messages asking for help. I refused every one of them.At last, I completely infuriated him."Heather, I'm asking you to step in because I'm giving you face. Don't be so ungrateful."I deleted and blocked him on the spot and never bothered with him again.The situation only grew worse, spreading beyond our inner circle. For several days in a row, the headlines were all about him.The company's stock price was also plunging at an alarmin

Anthony's words sounded so noble and high-minded. If he hadn't indulged Lisa's behavior in the first place, how would things ever have reached this point?I ignored him and continued chatting with my friend.Seeing that we paid her no attention, Lisa grew irritated."Heather, today isn't over yet. I'm still your superior. After all these years of work, is this how you talk back to your boss?"Anthony saw she was about to start swearing and scolded her a few times. Then, remembering he needed my help, he softened his tone."Fine, I'll go with you to the wedding first. After that, we'll deal with the project."As he spoke, he turned as if to change out of his wedding suit.I raised my brows at him. I had reached the limit of my patience with his clinging. I had said it so many times—why could he never understand?"Anthony, we're divorced. I've also resigned. From now on, whatever happens to you or the company has nothing to do with me. Don't come bothering me again."The strange

Anthony's expression darkened. He hurried to smooth things over."That was just a joke. But Lisa really went too far that day. Lisa, apologize to Heather, and we'll let this matter rest."Lisa refused outright."Why should I? I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I apologize?"She looked utterly unwilling to give in.Anthony warned her coldly, "Lisa, don't forget who's paying for your lifestyle. If the company loses too much money, that won't benefit you either. Do you still want your villa or not?"Only under the threat of losing her villa did Lisa grudgingly apologize to me."Sorry. Are you satisfied now?"Anthony was truly generous with her—he had even bought her a villa.Back then, when I saved up and bought myself a small apartment, he had nagged me for half a year."We've only just started living well, and you spend tens of thousands on a house. That's too wasteful. My old rental place is still usable. Why can't you live there? When I was starting my business, I drank

"Besides, Anthony, I only messed up one project. It's not even the first time. Why are you being so fierce about it?"Lisa looked aggrieved and went on and on, complaining at length.Listening to her list the projects she had ruined unexpectedly cleared up a long-standing doubt for me.There had once been a project I personally supervised. I had checked the drafts again and again before they were submitted, making sure everything was correct. Yet, when the client received them, the design had changed completely.Anthony blamed everything on me and scolded me for a long time.I knew I had reviewed the files countless times and found no issues. That was why I had approved the submission.Only now did I realize what had really happened.When Lisa submitted the files, she accidentally deleted the source file. Too afraid to ask us for another copy, she took it upon herself to upload the unedited version instead.The client was furious the moment they saw it. None of the requested ch

"You idiot! We asked for Heather's design. How dare you submit an intern's trash draft to pass it off as the real thing?"This is a serious breach of contract. You've caused us enormous losses. Prepare ten million in liquidated damages—we'll see you in court. If you can't pay, go to prison!"Anthony was stunned by the scolding."How could this happen? We've worked together so many times without a single problem!"He was about to explain when the call was abruptly cut off.All of this had been handled by me in the past. He had always been nothing more than a hands-off boss.Now, having just boasted about Lisa and sung her praises, disaster struck. Too proud to ask me for help, he could only frown and question Lisa instead."What's going on? Didn't you say everything was settled?"Lisa's face looked just as bad. She snapped angrily, "He's such a jerk. I worked so hard on those drawings—how could he talk about me like that? It's just a small project. If they don't want it, forget
