"Miss Lou, are you really leaving?" Lin Xian asked her, while she helped her put her things in a box.

She nodded unhappily. She had to leave the company though the previous decision of ousting her in the company was invalidated by the chairman himself. Due to her grandfather's hospitalization, the matter was also not pursued by the president.

But she had to resign from her position. Her grandparents were still leaving to get treatment abroad for Grandfather Lou, while she had to stay with Lia

  • The Forgotten CEO   64. Pockets of Happiness

    The following morning at Lee Group, Jacyn arrived twenty minutes before her shift, her steps brisk and purposeful. She was determined to keep her focus sharp after last night’s unsettling encounter in the lobby. Work was her safe haven, a clean slate where numbers always added up, unlike the confusing, heavy tension between Liam and Xueqin Yan.But the moment she sat down, she noticed a small, elegant package sitting right in the center of her blotter. It was wrapped in heavy ivory paper, tied with a simple silver ribbon.Jacyn frowned, pulling it closer. Inside lay a delicate silver pendant shaped like a star. It looked old, the metal polished but bearing the tiny, faint scuffs of something that had been handled for years. A note accompanied it, written in precise, deliberate strokes:For the brightest star I once knew. — Xueqin YanJacyn stared at the silver star. A strange, fleeting sensation tugged at the back of her mind—a faint echo of laughter and a wide, open field—but it vani

  • The Forgotten CEO   63. Unfinished Stories

    The day at Lee Group had finally ended, but the night was only beginning.After finishing up her tasks on the top floor, Jacyn grabbed her bag, stepped into the private executive elevator, and rode it down to the ground floor. But the moment the doors slid open into the massive, high-ceilinged main lobby, she froze.Standing near the glass revolving doors was a tall figure. His stride was slow and completely unhurried as he turned to face her, wearing a warm smile that didn't quite reach his sharp eyes.“Miss Jacyn,” Xueqin Yan greeted smoothly, his voice easily carrying across the quiet marble room. “It’s been far too long. Allow me to properly introduce myself this time.”Jacyn blinked, caught off guard. His presence was undeniably striking, but she felt absolutely no pull toward him. She tightened her grip on her bag and straightened her posture, her tone polite but completely cool. “Mr. Yan. I appreciate the gesture, but I’m just heading home. Coffee invitations really aren’t on m

  • The Forgotten CEO   62. Steel Wrapped in Warmth

    The morning at Lee Group started like any other day. Papers shuffled, managers hurried down the hallways talking fast on their phones, and the office was filled with the usual busy hum. But Jacyn brought a bright energy with her that always made the place feel a little less rigid.She walked past Jawn Ng’s desk, where he was already buried under a massive stack of reports.“Don’t drown in all that paperwork, Mr. Ng,” she said with a bright smile, setting her bag down. “I don’t know CPR.”Jawn blinked, adjusting his glasses and looking a bit defensive. “Miss Jacyn, I assure you, I am perfectly capable of swimming through numbers.”“Swimming?” Jacyn teased, leaning against the edge of his cubicle. “So that’s why you wear those long ties. Lifelines.”Through the open double doors of his private office, Liam heard her bright voice. He didn't look up from the tablet on his large desk immediately, but a tiny smirk tugged at the corner of his lips at her wit.The playful mood shifted the mom

  • The Forgotten CEO   61. Hopelessly Sweet Distractions

    The morning sun filtered gently through the tall windows of the Lee Group, casting a golden glow across the polished floors. Jacyn settled at her desk, humming softly as she organized her files. Liam glanced over at her from his leather chair. To anyone else, his expression was unreadable, but Jacyn caught the faint softening around his eyes."Busy day ahead," Jawn Ng announced, entering the room and neatly arranging a stack of reports on Liam’s desk before handing over the main agenda.Jacyn peeked over the top of her open ledger, a teasing glint in her eyes. "When is it not a busy day, Jawn?"Liam’s brow arched as he looked up from the papers, his eyes shifting from Jawn straight to Jacyn. “I didn’t realize my schedule was a joint discussion, Miss Jacyn.”She turned her grin to him, twirling her pen between her fingers. “Just making sure Jawn isn't letting you overwork yourself. Think of it as a bonus feature of having me around.”“Is that so?” Liam leaned back, a faint, knowing smi

    The lobby’s glow softened into evening shadows, and the air felt heavier with each word exchanged.Yan’s smile lingered, his tone smooth. “It seems Lee Group has grown even more formidable. I expected nothing less from you, William.”Liam’s reply was clipped, precise. “Formidable is necessary. Weakness has no place here.”Jacyn shifted slightly, her hands folding together in front of her. She sensed the sharpness in Liam’s words, though she didn’t understand why. To her, it was just business talk — two men measuring each other with polite phrases.Yan’s gaze returned to her, warm and curious. “And you, Miss Jacyn… you must be adjusting well. It’s rare to see someone bring light into this building.”Jacyn offered a polite smile, nothing more. Why does he speak as if he knows me? She didn’t care for his familiarity, nor the way his eyes lingered. Her attention drifted back to Liam, the only person whose words mattered.Liam’s hand brushed hers again, steadying her. His voice was calm, b

  • The Forgotten CEO   59. Hidden Smiles and Glances

    The morning light was softer than usual when Jacyn stepped into the Lee Group headquarters beside Liam. The building’s glass façade shimmered, reflecting the city’s pulse, but inside it was all hushed voices and hurried footsteps.Employees bowed slightly as Liam passed, their eyes lowered, their movements sharp. He was cold to them, his expression unreadable, his tone clipped. Yet when Jacyn glanced up at him, his gaze softened, and he slowed his stride to match hers.She leaned closer, whispering with a grin. “Do they always look like they’re about to faint when you walk by?”“They should,” Liam replied dryly. “Keeps them efficient.”Jacyn giggled, the sound light in the sterile lobby. A few startled looks followed, but Liam’s lips curved faintly — the smallest smile reserved only for her.Jawn Ng was already waiting when they entered Liam’s office, a neat stack of files in his hands. He bowed slightly, his tone brisk. “Good morning, Young Master Lee. The reports from the finance di

    'Winnie Lou.'People around them stopped what they were doing. Everyone heard clearly the name of the woman who was too brave but stupid enough to call the CEO. "So, she was the model, Winnie Lou." One woman scoffed."Yeah, she looked so ordinary off cam, right?" The other one said with a giggle."You'

    "You're fired!" Wang Lou jeered at her.Her face paled upon hearing what the president just told her. She looked at the other board of directors sitting with disbelief. Everyone bowed their heads to avoid looking at the surprised Lou' princess. "Mr. Wang Lou, what have I done to be fired? All I have

    “Someone’s following us, young miss.” Uncle Shan warned her, while he glimpsed at the rearview mirror from time to time. “Look at that white van, since we passed by the crossroad, it's already tailing us."Jacyn looked back and saw a white van in the distance. It was early in the morning and there we
