After that incident, Yaslyn immediately instructed Wade to investigate who was behind it. Surely enough, Zaylee bribed reporters to obtain the photo and posted it online.The previous punishment for the Ford family was seemingly too light, so Zaylee still had the willpower to pull off her tricks."Wade, terminate all the contracts between the Lukesh Company and the Ford family. We will cease all cooperation going forward, including any ongoing partnerships. Don't worry about paying penalty fees for breach of contract."Wade was indifferent. "Of course, it's Zaylee again. Don't worry, Ms. Lyon. I won't let the Ford family off easy this time."Without the Lukesh Company, the Ford family would lose a major source of profit. They would lose at least several billion dollars.The Lukesh Company issued a notice prohibiting further cooperation with the Ford family, puzzling Xoan.Whenever something happened to Yaslyn, the Ford family faced a crisis.Could Wade be helping Yaslyn get back
Yaslyn woke up the next afternoon with a headache. Upon checking her phone, there were over a hundred unread messages and countless calls, all from Wade.She quickly texted Wade to let him know she was fine. Then, she tried to recall what happened last night.She remembered running into Xoan before wildly flirting with him. After that...She could not remember anything.Massaging her temples, she simply freshened up a bit before returning to the company.Although Zaylee was a bit sneaky, she did a good job planning the gala event. The venue decorations were novel and distinctive. Combined with her status, she received compliments from everyone."Everyone, stop complimenting me. It's no big deal. Xoan taught me everything," Zaylee explained while blushing.Those around her exchanged looks, understanding that she was acting coy about their relationship again."Ms. Ford, you and our President are childhood sweethearts. It seems he really adores you!""It's like being the main cha
Zaylee's words sounded truthful as if Yaslyn herself had instructed her.Xoan nodded and followed Zaylee inside.The reporters gathered at the entrance clicked away wildly at the pair. Zaylee deliberately leaned closer to Xoan.Suddenly, she twisted her ankle and fell to the ground. Xoan quickly put one hand around her waist to stop her from falling.The reporters were unwilling to miss such a scene and took more photos.They had already envisioned tomorrow's headlines. 'The Ford and Warren families' marriage alliance' and 'Intimate interactions caught on camera'.That news would surely go viral!Zaylee's face turned red. "Thank you, Xoan."Xoan withdrew his hand without hesitation. "Alright, let's go in."After saying that, he went in on his own.Zaylee's previously elated mood plummeted instantly. She bit her lip tightly to avoid embarrassment and hurried to follow him.Not long after, there was another commotion at the entrance. It was no less exciting than when the two o
Xoan pinned her down, his gaze burning with fiery passion."Xoan..."As Xoan's pressed his mouth to hers, the rest of Yaslyn's words were forced back down her throat.He went deeper and deeper with each touch, even slipping his tongue into her mouth.Yaslyn knew it was the drug taking effect. She quickly bit his tongue, forcing him to regain awareness. When he pulled away, she flipped him over and pinned him to the floor. She slapped him unconscious with one strike."So much trouble."Yaslyn stood up and irritably kicked Xoan."Taking advantage of me when not in your right mind, huh?"Calling an ambulance would attract too much attention. Yaslyn could only call the Warren family's bodyguards to take Xoan away.When Xoan opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was the expressionless Yaslyn beside him. Confused, he asked, "Did you stay by my side taking care of me the whole night?"Yaslyn did not answer his question, instead sarcastically jeering, "Not very vigilant, are
Seeing the growing uproar severely impacting the new song's listenership, Henry realized the gravity of the situation. He went to the Warren Group to discuss countermeasures with Yaslyn.Yaslyn was in the office discussing the company's next steps of cooperation with Xoan. Hearing the news, she merely raised her brows and laughed."So, they're saying that I imitated Natalie?"Henry frowned when he saw her reaction. "Yaslyn, this is quite serious."Yaslyn remained composed. Xoan suddenly had a bold idea when he saw her reaction, but he did not speak up. He stared at Yaslyn thoughtfully, waiting for her next move.Yaslyn gave him a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, Henry. I'll handle this. It definitely won't affect the release of your new song.""Alright."For some reason, Henry inexplicably placed great trust in her upon seeing her calm composure.Zaylee also knocked on the office door. Seeing everyone there, she could not help but ask, "I heard there are some issues with Henry's
Yaslyn calmly burst his bubble. "That girl is me."Marcus jumped out of his seat. "I don't believe you!"Yaslyn shrugged. "It's your choice."Marcus snorted coldly. "If it's really you, come with us tomorrow and show me how capable you are. Don't embarrass yourself by not even being able to fit in the race car."Yaslyn had no intention of letting him off so easily. "What if I'm the person you mentioned?""If you really are her, I'll never call you a country bumpkin again."Yaslyn smiled and added, "I want you to address me as Ms. Lyon."Marcus was confident of winning. "Deal! If you're not her, I want you to leave the Warren family!""It's a deal."Marcus woke Yaslyn up the next day and brought Xoan and her to San Jose Valley.Marcus loved racing the most, and he especially admired Xoan's superb skills until that mysterious woman broke Xoan's record. He began fantasizing about her looks.Yaslyn changed into a bright and vibrant red racing suit.Xoan's suit was also red. Sta
It was Marcus's birthday. The Warren family had also invited Zaylee.When Marcus opened Zaylee's gift, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "This racing suit is so cool! You shouldn't have spent so much on it. Thank you, Zaylee!"Zaylee smiled. "Don't mention it. It wasn't very expensive."She looked proudly at Yaslyn.When it was time to open Yaslyn's gift, it was just a small box."Yaslyn, shouldn't you have prepared something?" Zaylee asked with a look of awkwardness.Marcus opened the gift wrap, and inside was a car key."This is my favorite car! There's only one in the world! Ms. Lyon, how'd you get this?"Marcus was overjoyed. For him, it was the best birthday gift ever!Looking at the racing suit, Zaylee suddenly felt that her gift was the shabby one.Zaylee was so ashamed that she hung her head. She could only glare furiously at Yaslyn.Xoan's gift was the grand finale. Marcus was even more curious about his gift. Inside the square box was an asset transfer agreement.
Xoan stood in front of Yaslyn and smirked at Mr. Linton. "We're the Warren Group. We don't need you either.""We'll see about that!" Mr. Linton barked, glaring fiercely at Xoan before leaving.Yaslyn had not expected Xoan to suddenly stand up for her. "Xoan, did you defend me earlier?"Xoan looked at her grin and felt a stir in his heart, but he quickly looked away. "I won't stand by and watch my employee be taken advantage of."Knowing his aloof personality, Yaslyn did not tease him further."What should we do about the company now? The Linton Group refused to cooperate, and it seems we're about to run into some big trouble this time.""I already have a contingency plan in place. They can't hurt us," Xoan replied.Yaslyn was curious. "What's the plan?""I've decided to partner with a foreign company. It might cost more, but we have enough funds for it," Xoan explained."Why not collaborate with the Lukesh Company?" Yaslyn asked."They've always been secretive. They only coop
