"Indeed, he's young," Jade remarked. "But despite his age, he's capable. When the company began, Mr. Thompson had nothing but money. Besides the Hamertons' support, Mr. Chriss played a vital role in building Sol Entertainment step by step. With a solid foundation, the subsidiary companies grew rapidly.""So, Mr. Chriss deserves credit." Lena smiled. "Because of that, did the directors overlook his affair?"Jade playfully nudged her. "Come on, enough of that!""I know," Lena whispered. "I'm just teasing you. I wouldn't discuss this with outsiders."Jade's eyes twinkled with hidden meaning as she said, "What I mean is, Mr. Chriss' relationship with Jacqueline isn't clear!""Huh?"Lena was taken aback.In reality, she had considered this. Jacqueline seemed the least likely mistress she had ever seen. What kind of secretive, pampered mistress led such a difficult life, working hard?It appeared she had only heard one side of the story, one that suggested Jacqueline was willingly do

Jacqueline's head was pounding, and her eyes widened as she felt her cheeks grow warm. She struggled to find her voice but couldn't utter a word."You..." She pointed at Lena.Lena slapped her hand away.Jacqueline shrieked and charged at Lena, who turned around and quickly restrained her by placing her arms behind her back.Kasey stood dumbfounded for a moment but then acted swiftly. While Lena held Jacqueline, Kasey slapped the latter's cheeks."Enough, both of you," Lena said in her deep voice. "Jacqueline, you represent the sales department. Don't disgrace it."Despite her words, Lena didn't release her grip on Jacqueline.Kasey raised an eyebrow and slapped Jacqueline two more times."I said stop. Can't you both understand?" Lena frowned. "Are you still at it? Ms. Thompson is upstairs! Do you want to alert her?"Kasey struggled to stifle her laughter, her palms red from slapping Jacqueline."Alright, that's enough..."I said stop!"Kasey had almost vented all her anger

Toph gazed at Arya, utterly astonished.Renee had never uttered such words to him. When they were close, he was the one showering her with compliments. Now that they had drifted apart—apart from urging him to fight for his inheritance against Zuko and criticizing his drawings as having no future—she remained silent.A sharp pain pierced his heart when he heard Arya's words, causing his eyes to well up with tears."Hey!" Arya was taken aback and quickly comforted him. "What's wrong? It's alright!""I'm okay." He sniffled. "I'm just so happy... Your approval means the world to me!""I'm actually quite lonely at home," he confessed. "My parents don't understand art. While my brother appreciates it, art is just a hobby for him, not a career. My grandma is an artist, but she lives in Southeast Aciatic. It's far away, and I can't always talk to her."Now that I have the opportunity to create comics, I..." He became emotional as he spoke, only managing to regain his composure after a wh

"It's my fault. It's all my fault!" Toph cried out. "I'm the one who pushed her to do this... I didn't apologize or resolve our conflict. Instead, I pushed her to this point..."Mom, I'm the reason Renee tried to take her own life! I messed up!"He raised his arm, intending to hit himself, but Zephyr tightly gripped his wrist before he could."Calm down!" Zephyr growled. "You're a man, look at yourself!""Dad..."Nicholas also tried to console him. "Toph, you're gentle and kind. That's why you try to shoulder all the blame. But you're not truly at fault. So, please, stop blaming yourself."Toph stood there with teary eyes, and Cordelia felt a deep sadness seeing him like that.Meanwhile, she had an inkling of what was going on. It seemed that Renee had captured all of Toph's attention with this incident.Zennie was part of the emergency team and soon emerged from the emergency room."Don't worry," she said calmly. "We managed to save her in time. Her life is no longer in dange

The girl was cute and innocent, her cheeks rosy. Her eyes had a joyful sparkle.When she entered like an angel, Lena felt like she was looking at her younger self. However, Lena didn't have as wonderful a childhood as this child. She was never as neat and pretty. As a kid, she was always dirty, wearing oversized clothes and messy braids. Other children would often bully her, saying nobody wanted her.Lena often dreamt of having a doll like all the other girls in her youth.Her heart squeezed, and she turned away, expressionless.Kasey called out to her, "Hey, you are here too? Skipping lunch to work during the break?"Before she could respond, Elijah's cold voice cut in. "Do you think everyone has as much free time as you do?"Kasey's expression changed, and she swallowed her words.But Elijah didn't care and continued to taunt her. "What are you up to today? Bringing my daughter to watch me?"Kasey, Nala bears my last name. Don't set a bad example for her!""You..." Kasey's f
