Lahat ng Kabanata ng One Night Stand: Alpha trapped me: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

In novels and TV dramas, it was as if they were on standby 24 hours a day, ready to work.Colin responded in a cold tone, "Unless it's a special circumstance, I won't lack humanity. Besides, my special assistant is not a woman."Eranthe, while zipping up her dress, frowned. "Are you discriminating against women?"Colin leaned against the door, calmly explaining, "Calling a female employee to fetch documents late at night. Who would be responsible if something bad happened?"That made sense, and Colin could see the understanding in her expression. "Let's go," he said.Eranthe grabbed her bag and followed him out.When she was about to put on high heels, Colin picked out a pair of flat shoes. "Wear these."Since her ankles were scraped and bleeding, she decided to listen to him. After all, tonight was not about attending a meeting, so she didn't want to wear high heels.Once they got into the car, Eranthe realized that Colin was playing the role of her driver tonight."Thank you for ton

During this half month, the hottest topic in Ashly Group was the Miller family's case.Eranthe had also been to the police station for an investigation, all arranged by Morris with a lawyer accompanying her. So, she hadn't encountered Alice Miller in the meantime.Now, the talk among colleagues had shifted to sympathizing with Eranthe."Good thing you broke up with Dylan, getting rid of a scumbag early. Otherwise, you'd be in big trouble.""Yeah."They spoke while watching Eranthe's expression, trying to get some feedback and satisfy their gossiping mentality.However, Eranthe's reactions always disappointed them; she seemed indifferent to everything related to Dylan.Adding to this, wherever Ana goes these days, she takes Eranthe with her, making it clear that a promotion is in the works. Mr. Harris has also been reassigned from his position, and it seems like the department head role will fall onto Eranthe’s shoulders. None of her colleagues dared to say anything to her face.Once A

Acacia was surprised. "Oh, you know Colin? How come I didn't know?"Oriel raised an eyebrow, "I know him, but he may not remember me. We were two years apart when we were in school. Later, during an event in Germany, I approached him for a chat. He was as cold as an ice cube, asking me to contact his assistant if I had any questions!"Rolling her eyes, Oriel added, "Finding a partner for someone like him would be challenging if it weren't for his wealth. If he's not rich, he might have to wait in line for a few lifetimes."Acacia shrugged, "With that face, why worry about his love life? Better to worry about what we're having for dinner tonight.""Good point, hahaha." Oriel got into Eranthe's car.As they left the parking lot, they saw a line of cars passing by.Acacia, envious of Colin, also took the opportunity to catch up Oriel on what had happened during her absence from Assyria."What's going on? That jerk Dylan dared to block you? What a scumbag!" Oriel's voice also rose."Let i

Zora and her group stared daggers at Eranthe's table, but they couldn't say anything in front of the men. Zora directly headed towards Colin's position.However, Colin merely lifted his eyelids slightly, and the people around him immediately laughed, preventing Zora from squeezing in.Oriel sneered, "See that? Seeing is believing."Anyone here was not someone Acacia dared to mess with. She didn't dare to intervene and just wanted to leave. Even if they were given top-notch ingredients now, she wouldn't be able to swallow them.Someone asked Oscar, "Why didn't you introduce the people you brought?"Oscar chuckled, "I didn't expect to run into you all. This is Oriel."Oriel raised her glass towards the others, introducing herself and her profession. Being a social media influencer in the realm of gourmet food was still relatively novel, and the men found themselves chatting easily with her.Knowing that Eranthe and Acacia worked for Ashly, a few even exchanged business cards, expressing

Colin had invested in a medical project, and the news had spread throughout Assyria. Those who could associate with Colin were generally profitable. If Colin didn't give you face, no one would be willing to give you another chance.Peterson Pharmaceutical Co. had faced difficulties in the past two years, mainly due to the excessive family-oriented internal structure of the group. There were relatives and friends everywhere.Despite Oscar's considerable efforts to get a share of the pie, Colin decided to kick the Peterson Group out due to Zora's foolish behavior.Oscar, disregarding his dignity, immediately stood up and said, "Colin, Zora is young and doesn't know how to speak. I apologize on her behalf.""No need," Colin said, placing his glass down.Oscar, losing face, directed all his anger towards Zora. In front of so many people, continuing to argue with Colin and retracting his words would only embarrass Colin.So, he calmly smiled and said, "Alright, let me apologize to everyone
