Chapter 6

Penulis: No Cilantro
Yves saw the sudden change in the person's expression and said, "That's because Mel sent the proposal back and made Cynthia the temporary representative of Golding Corp.

"Cynthia isn't even an employee at our company. She just holds some shares. She's never worked before, so how could she understand any of this?"

I felt my anger reach its peak at that point. Had he forgotten that I was the one who saved Golding Corp from ruin? Is he ignoring the fact that I drank glass after glass to secure those collaborations for him?

Ah, I had forgotten. He had even mocked me for "enjoying" mingling with men over drinks and said that I was "seeking attention".

I kicked open the door to the private dining room. Everyone turned to look at me.

When Mindy saw me, she gave me a look that said she was ready for the drama to unfold.

"Apologies for being late, everyone. I'm Cynthia York—Yves' wife, the largest shareholder of Golding Group, and the original creator of this proposal."

  • Santa's Nasty Surprise   Chapter 10

    "Oh, right. Have you shown your mom what Melissa looks like?" I asked.I pulled up a photo of Melissa on my phone and showed it to Emma. "Do you think she looks familiar?"When she saw Melissa's photo, she immediately felt her anger turn into terror. She gripped my phone tightly, unwilling to let it go."Revenge! It's revenge!" she shrieked.Emma became mad and delirious from that day on, only muttering, "Revenge."At first, Yves seemed like a good son. He worked everywhere to earn money for his mother's treatment. But even long-term care could test one's patience, let alone Yves, who wasn't a good son to begin with.He soon abandoned his mother in a mold-covered basement and gambled with his last bit of money, hoping for a lucky break.Later on, I heard that he had gotten his hand chopped off by someone and was sent off to Mianer. When I heard this piece of news, I was sitting in a bar, feeling carefree and not at all interested in how he was faring.…Mindy came to find me

  • Santa's Nasty Surprise   Chapter 9

    It was probably a coincidence. I thought that maybe Mindy was also doing charity work. But that was impossible, as Mindy only knew how to do bad things.…The next time I saw Melissa again, her belly had already started to show. "It's been a long time, Ms. York.""What do you want?" I asked impatiently."My child's shares should have been transferred to me now, right? What's the point of you keeping the transfer document?""Your child? What shares are you talking about?" I asked with mock surprise."Yves' shares, of course. He transferred them to my child.""Wait, are you confused? He transferred them to his biological children. His biological children," I emphasized."What… What do you mean?"I extracted Yves' diagnosis letter of permanent infertility from my bag and placed it before her. This was the result of a check-up we did after we had gotten married. At that time, I hid it from Yves and everyone else to spare him from heartbreak. I even said that I had a bad heart an

    "What do you mean? You're not that stupid," I said.Yves' expression looked like he had eaten a pile of shit. He appeared to be disgusted.I continued, "Melissa is pregnant, right? The shares will go directly to the child. The lawyer has already drafted the agreement that all your shares will be transferred to your biological children."But before the child is of legal age, the shares will be managed by the birth mother, which means that Melissa's shares are actually yours."Yves looked at me warily and asked, "What do you get out of this?""You know my heart isn't in good health, and I probably won't be able to have children in this lifetime. I want you to remarry me later and bring the child back, claiming it's mine."He nodded. "That's not hard to do. But won't you have to suffer a little?""What does this little sacrifice of mine matter for Golding Corp? As long as you always have a place for me in your heart, any sacrifice is worth it," I said with slightly reddened eyes as

    After Queenie left, many other leading members of the Bureau of Land Management followed suit and left.Only Yves, Mindy, Melissa, and I remained in the room. However, Melissa was soon taken away by the police.Before leaving, she put on a show of a heartbreaking farewell. One might have thought that she was getting locked up in Olcatraz."This is your solution, Cynthia? The contract wasn't even signed, and Melissa was taken away!" Yves shouted.Mindy rubbed her ear. "Hey, we aren't deaf. Could you speak a little quieter?""What's it to you? Why are you back?""Don't forget that I have the same amount of shares as you in Golding Corp. Don't think that you're really the CEO here," Mindy retorted.I smiled and said, "But with my shares plus Yves', it far outweighs yours. I hope that you can show Yves some familial respect.""Is the child of a mistress that worthy? Cynthia, you really can tolerate anything. He blatantly betrayed you, yet you still don't mind?" Mindy scoffed."Wha

    Before Yves left, he berated me, "My tolerance for you is not a ticket for you to cause unreasonable trouble. If I catch you doing it again, we'll get a divorce!"In our three years together, this was the first time he had threatened me with a divorce.I smiled bitterly, losing even the last shred of hope I held.…After the argument, Yves didn't come home for an entire month. To appease Melissa, he took her on a worldwide trip. He took her to Nartic to see the penguins, to Sartica to see the aurora, to San Melini to see the ocean, and to Tornky to ride in a hot air balloon. He even took her to Izland to enjoy some barbecue at the foot of a volcano.I saw all of this from Melissa's posts on social media.Meanwhile, Yves himself posted something, which was unusual behavior for him. His caption read, "To me, all others are mere blades of grass, but you're the only towering mountain."I liked the post, and he deleted it instantly. It seemed like he had forgotten to block me. Howe
