Se connecterMy father suffered a heart attack and collapsed. Emergency treatment required the installation of a cardiac stent. I asked my husband to approve an expense of 10 thousand dollars for the surgery. Cameron Lister, the CEO, refused coldly, "The company and family accounts have been frozen recently because of a major project. Your father has medical insurance, so just use a cost-effective domestic stent for now." He was the sole administrator of all the bank cards in my family. His reply made me sorrowfully realize something. Even though I was a genius architectural designer with an annual income of 600 thousand dollars, I was still not worthy of choosing a better life-saving device for my own father. It was a Twitter post forwarded by a colleague, freshly and gleefully posted by the company intern Wendy. [Cameron is so nice. I just said I liked painting, and he gave me a million dollars to organize an art exhibition. I love him so much!] I looked at my father lying on an extra bed in the hospital corridor, groaning in pain, and then looked at the photo of them sweetly embracing each other. I finally understood that Cameron had perhaps never truly loved me. He had only treated me as a stepping stone for his soaring career, and as a tool for him to exploit without limits. 'If this is what you want, Cameron, then don't blame me for being ruthless,' I said inwardly.

"Congratulations. You did it.""Yes," I said with deep emotion. "Back then, 10 thousand felt like an insurmountable chasm. Now it seems it was the ticket that allowed me to be reborn.""Cameron was sentenced," James said as he handed me a document. "15 years behind bars. He behaved very badly—word was that he went insane, shouting every day that he was the CEO and ordering people to grind coffee for him."I took the verdict, didn't even glance at it, and threw it straight into the bin."People who are irrelevant don't need to be mentioned.""I want to build a
"No, no, that's impossible!"Cameron looked at the photo and let out a shrill, broken scream, as if his spine had been ripped out and he collapsed completely.He was dragged away, his screams echoing down the corridor.In the end, only I remained in the conference room, along with a pile of signed transfer agreements.The first thing I did after taking over the Lister Group was to conduct a thorough investigation into Wendy.She had taken the 1 million meant for the art exhibition and was preparing to flee abroad.But I had already had James apply for an exit ban.The police put handcuffs on her.Good and evil were always repaid in the end; the wheel of fate turned without fail.After dealing with Wendy, I went to the hospital.My father had already been transferred out of the ICU. Although he was still very weak, he was conscious.When he saw me come in, he struggled to raise his hand. "Nina, Cameron... he didn't bully you, did he?"I held his hand, and tears finally spill
I led James and several bodyguards as I pushed open the doors to the Lister Group conference room.Cameron was in a frenzy, snapping at a group of shareholders. "What are you panicking about? As long as Mr. Fisher hasn't released a conclusion, this is just a rumor! I've already arranged for the PR department to suppress the trending topics!""You can't suppress it anymore, Mr. Lister."I walked in and tossed a folder onto the center of the long table."Mr. Fisher has already reported this to the police. The economic crimes unit is downstairs. They'll be up in about three minutes."The conference room fell into dead silence.All the shareholders stared at me in terror.Cameron's eyes were bloodshot, his hair disheveled, like a wild beast driven into a corner. "Nina! Do you really have to wipe me out completely? I'm your husband! What good does it do you if I go to prison?""What good does it do me?" I asked.I pulled out Cameron's exclusive seat and sat down without the slighte
Mr. Fisher had been frowning as he watched the entire farce unfold.I stepped down from the stage and walked straight up to Mr. Fisher, pulling a USB drive out of my clutch."Mr. Fisher, this contains the original data for the Summit Project, and..." I paused, then raised my voice slightly. "And evidence that the Lister Group secretly altered the building materials list, replacing the originally specified high-strength steel with cheap, substandard steel in their cost quotation."Boom!That statement was even more explosive than the earlier dispute over authorship.In the construction world, nothing was more taboo than cutting corners—this was a matter of human lives.The color drained instantly from Cameron's face as he charged down like a madman. "Nina! You're slandering me!"He tried to snatch the USB drive.But James appeared out of nowhere. Tall and imposing, he stepped in front of me and grabbed Cameron's wrist."Mr. Lister, please conduct yourself in public," James said
