Lia's POV Having a fever wasn't an interesting experience, especially for people who were rarely sick like me. I didn't feel like I had the strength to do anything. My whole body was hot, and my head was in terrible pain. The only thing I could do to make myself comfortable was sleep. Sometimes I would wake up and be in a vague state. As always, I woke up and heard voices talking and felt the quiet atmosphere around me. The doctor was saying something; I heard him mention the name of some medicine. But I was so tired and I kept falling asleep. I woke up again, feeling my current state was better. But my body was still exhausted. I frowned, annoyed by my sweaty body. How many days had I not showered? "Hey, you all right?" I heard Ivor's voice and then I saw him sitting next to the bed. His face was full of anxiety. “I-,” I wanted to say 'I'm fine' out of habit but I hear my voice hoarse, I didn't even have the strength to say a complete sentence. My words were stuck in my throat.

“Keep looking, come on,” I pretended I was fine. Coco frowned, she leaned lazily on the bookshelf, “Come on. We can keep looking tomorrow.” I didn't know how to handle that confidential document yet, so I couldn't let anyone discover my secrets, including Coco. So I stopped her from coming to my library the next day. Then, while we were looking for the material that she needed, I supervised her so that she didn't get a chance to get close to my desk. When Coco left, I thought about how to deal with confidential documents. In two days, I would have to submit to Ivor the list of mistresses that he had. I couldn't file a confidential document. The best way was to tell Ivor that I got the wrong document. But did he suspect me that the girl had a one-night stand with him? If I had thought rationally, I would have realized that the chances of me being discovered were not high, but I was worried. I had to take sleeping pills so I could sleep that night. The next morning, I came to the

I drove to where Elie was before she became Ivor's mistress.“Oh my God,” I had to say when I saw the place where she used to live. It was an old, dilapidated apartment building in a remote suburb. Even the security system of this place was not up to the standard.I got out of the car, feeling uncomfortable when the people there were all staring at me. Maybe it's because my SUV is already the only car here.I got out of the car, feeling uncomfortable when the people there were all staring at me. Maybe it was because my SUV was already the only car here.I didn't care about other people's eyes and went to look for apartment security. He was sitting on the couch in the apartment complex and playing games.“Excuse me, do you know of any Miss Jenner?” I asked.“Jenner?” the apartment security repeated incredulously.“Yes, Elie Jenner,” I said.He shook his head and said in an angry voice, “Who knows who she is? Find the owner of that apartment building and ask him." Then he continued to p

Lia's POV I finished my flight and picked up my luggage. I went out of the airport and opened the phone that I had bought from the mother of Elie's boyfriend. I frowned when the location showed Elie had moved to a poor California neighborhood. Only last night, she was still staying at a hotel in California. Did Ivor's subordinates go to California, and she had to run away? I rented a cab, and I went to where Elie lived. It was a shipping container house in a poor neighborhood. I pursed my lips, looking at Elie's location again to confirm that she was here. I approached the house and knocked, but no one opened the door. I knocked again, but nothing changed. I frowned. What was going on, after all? Was Elie not here or did she not open the door because she was on the run from Ivor's pursuit? I pressed my ear against the door and hoped I could hear something inside the house. Fortunately, I heard the glass falling on the fur carpet. There was someone in the room. It must be Elie. I l

I was discharged from the hospital that evening and returned to the company the next morning. I worried that Ivor was still angry with me. At the same time, I was worried Mark would send that surveillance tape to Ivor to intimidate him, so I asked him not to send it to Ivor for the next 7 days. Of course Mark said yes. And he also urged me to make a quick decision because Ivor's investigative team found him holding the surveillance footage.I walked out of the elevator, got greetings from my colleagues. I tried to be happy and responded to them. Just God knew how worried I was. I still didn't know how to face Ivor.I walked quickly back to my office and hoped I wouldn't see Ivor.But as soon as I touched the door handle of my office, I heard a familiar voice.“Good morning, Lia,” Ivor's voice spread from behind my back.I pursed my lips, turned my head, and saw Ivor. I tried to give him a wry smile, “Good morning.”I carefully observed Ivor's expression, but I still couldn't predict h
