“But Mr. Quint, you told me not to contact you no matter what. If not for the chairwoman requesting you, I wouldn’t have either.” The secretary felt it was not her fault. After all, Harvey told her not to disturb him. “Are you stupid? The company is going through such a major change, and you don’t even think to call me?” Harvey shouted. He did not expect his secretary to be this incompetent. How could she not understand the severity of the situation? “So, do you want to come to the office now? I’ll arrange for a car to pick you up.” The secretary was aggrieved, but she dared not talk back. “Get me a car immediately, and also, I want you to send me something.” Harvey did not know what he should do. If Darcy found out about his secrets, he did not know how to face the headquarters. Once Darcy took control, the head of the Quints would surely hold him responsible. Harvey found himself sandwiched between two difficult situations. Had he learned about Shaw’s resignatio

Harvey was resentful and did not see it as his own fault. “I can help to get a call, but if you can’t secure a meeting, don’t blame me,” he said. He thought he was being helpful. Darcy did not put any hope on him, either. She had only wanted to warn him, with no intention of suing him. As distant relatives, if this got out of hand, it would garner more unwanted attention from the main Quints. Darcy did not want to be the target of her relatives. So, after handling the matter with discretion, there was no need for her to target him anymore. She looked at Harvey coldly, shooting him a threatening gaze. “You made a promise. If you keep the promise, you will be rewarded for your effort. I won’t talk about what you did to the company, but you have listened to me.” Now that she had made her offer, the decision was up to Harvey. “I got it. I’ll play along. I won’t be calling the headquarters in the meantime. You do you, and I’ll stand out of your way.” He knew what Darcy w

“Ms. Quint, it’s not that I don’t want to help. Mr. Witterson really is extremely busy. We only have so many days to arrange his schedule. If I can, I will, but it’s not possible.” Mavis wore a bitter smile and looked apologetic. There was no way she could slot any more last-minute meetings. Besides, Edmund was so busy that even his secretaries barely saw him. They had to handle matters on their own. Making arrangements to meet Edmund was practically impossible. Even if Darcy wanted her to deliver the proposal, it would end up in another secretary’s hands for review. Only after they reviewed would it go back to Edmund for the final decision. It was part of the secretaries’ job to filter the proposals and documents before delivering them to Edmund. Yet, even after the filtering round, it would take months before getting an answer. “Is there really no other way? I mean, if he’s on the way home, we can also talk to him on the way back. It would only take a few minutes of h

Darcy heard that Clarice was important to Edmund and had initially thought it was because the girl was his only niece. Yet, things did not seem as simple as she thought. “Edmund is quite young, right? He doesn’t have a wife or any children, so why doesn’t he raise his own child?” She was confused. Big families cared a lot about lineage. No matter how much Edmund cared about Clarice, it was highly unlikely he would make her his heir. Edmund should have his own children and raise them to take his position instead.“I heard Clarice is Edmund’s late sister’s only child. When she passed away, she put her in his care. That’s why they are close, like father and daughter. It also explained why Edmund wanted to groom her as his heir.” Harvey did not want to pry into people’s family affairs. No one knew what Edmund had in mind. However, everyone could tell that Clarice was no longer just a niece to him. Her status had changed drastically; everyone treated her with newfound respect.

“It’s okay, I’m not interested.” Clarice had lost interest in whatever the store had for her. “Ms. Geofrey, we have another selection here. Why don’t you have a look and give them a try?” The sales associate grew anxious as she was going to lose a big customer. She quickly brought Clarice to a private showroom. Clarice saw many fashionable clothes on display. All the colors were vibrant, and the amount of cloth used on them was obviously less than that outside. The clothes on display were of a sexier cut. If she did not know how to match them, it would be a disaster. She never dared to try bold outfits because she knew she was lacking in sense, so there was no reason for her to jump into a trap. However, the sexy clothes felt like a challenge to her. She never had the nerve to put on anything that showed flesh. However, since she wanted a change, maybe putting on something she would never wear could change her thoughts and feelings. “Ms. Geofrey, these are our seconda
