Both parties were stunned, and Sandra was the first one to come back to her senses. With a cold smirk on her face, she spoke in a hostile tone, “Oh? If it isn’t Fiona, the mistress?”Her words caused everyone in the shop to shift their focus to Fiona, whose face had turned red. She was a well-known and respectable socialite in South City but after Sandra called her out like that, she was extremely ashamed.“It seems that your lover is going to make you his official partner soon, huh?” Sandra had a cynical look in her eyes. “Nowadays, even an unscrupulous mistress can wear a gown while acting so high and mighty. People are so devious and harsh, unlike the people in ancient times.”Fiona wanted so badly to crawl into a hole in the ground. However, Sandra did not stop there. “Has the thought never occurred to you that you’ll get retribution for wrecking a family? When a mistress likes you give birth, the child will be born with a missing body part and that’s your retribution!”“Sandra

Mr. Johnson was stunned for a moment, and he thought he had misheard Jackson. Jackson glared at him, saying, “Tell the higher-ups in the television station that they can get our sponsor but only if they replace Sandra Willis and get her to do odd jobs!”Mr. Johnson came out of Jackson’s office with the contract, looking aggrieved. When he was in the corridor, he ran into James. “Mr. Larson, you have to help me!” Mr. Johnson stopped James and said, “Mr. Miller agreed to this sponsorship but he suddenly changed his mind. What am I going to tell the television station?”James shook his head and patted Mr. Johnson’s shoulder to comfort him. “There’s no rhyme or reason when it comes to Mr. Miller. You should do exactly as you’re told.”Mr. Johnson sighed. Indeed, he could not argue with Jackson with reason. However, the sponsorship for the television station had been a favor from his old friend.He had carefully read through the plan of the program and figured this would bring the compa

“Were you behind what happened to Sandra?” Yvonne glared at him.Jackson ignored Yvonne’s animosity. He sat down on the sofa carefreely and crossed his legs. Then, he took out a cigarette to light it.“Sandra? Who’s Sandra?” His voice was still cold and indifferent.‘Jackson smokes?’ Yvonne was shocked. Back then, she had said she hated the smell of cigarettes on men and Jackson said he was not a smoker.However, judging from his experienced posture and the smoke rings escaping his lips, Yvonne realized she had never understood this man at all.“Jackson, do you have amnesia? Are you sure you don’t know Sandra?” Yvonne was so mad she started screaming. Then, she came back to her senses.He was doing this on purpose. He was indeed the person behind what had happened to Sandra. “How despicable! You despicable vile rat!”“Despicable?” The man’s beautiful eyes turned dark. She called him despicable. ‘This damned woman!’ Jackson felt his anger rising and could not stop himself from

The car was parked at the entrance of the municipal government building. Zachary got out of the car and brought Yvonne to the front door of the municipal government building.Both of them went into the meeting room. Once the door was opened, they saw Jackson with his assistant, James. They were dressed in suits and ties, giving off an imposing air. There were other bosses and assistants who came for the bid as well. Zachary sat down, and Yvonne stood behind him when she saw that the other assistants were standing. She did not expect that Zachary would grab her and make her sit beside him.Jackson’s eyes were gloomy when he saw Zachary pull Yvonne to sit down next to him. Zachary caught a glimpse of Jackson’s unpleasant expression and lowered his voice to say to Yvonne, “Is Miller bearing ill will against me?”“Is that so?” Yvonne shot a glance at Jackson after she heard that. Jackson’s handsome eyes met hers briefly, but she coldly shifted her gaze.“Yes, Miller is looking at you w

This basically implied that Jackson would have leverage over her even after she apologized as he could always use the excuse that her apology was not ‘earnest’ enough. Jackson had no desire to stop giving her trouble at all. It was meaningless no matter what she did.After figuring that out, Yvonne turned back again. Behind her, Jackson said coldly, “This is your last chance, Yates! Everything that happens after is on you!”She ran toward Zachary’s car without stopping. After she got in, tears fell down uncontrollably.Yvonne hated herself. Even though she already knew how merciless this man could be, she still felt hurt. Tears would still fall when she was faced with this man’s cruelty. Jackson’s vicious gaze was pinned on Yvonne’s retreating back. His heart felt empty when he saw her close the car door heavily.He did not want to be so vicious, but when he thought of what Zachary had said in the conference room and how Yvonne might be lying beneath Zachary every night, he felt
