Semua Bab A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock: Bab 241 - Bab 250

"Keep searching.""Understood, Mr. Park."After hanging up, Alec couldn't help but sigh.They had been searching for years without any leads. The only explanation was that this person didn’t want to be found. Alec couldn't fathom why his boss wouldn’t let go, despite Suzy’s apparent determination to cut ties.Over the past three years, countless women had shown interest in Mr. Park—beautiful, well-connected women, some from families as prestigious as the Parks. Yet he remained indifferent, keeping all women at a distance. Rumors were even starting to circulate that he wasn't interested in women at all.Alec glanced at the manila folders in his hand.Since Liam said it wasn't important, he wouldn't bother looking through them.He had just inspected the Windsting City resort project. Aside from the holdout issue, it was ready to proceed. The project leads wouldn’t need to liaise directly with Park Group headquarters, so there was no need for him to get involved.The biggest headache now

The reprimand Alec expected didn’t come.In fact, there was no sound at all from the other end.It was clear this wasn’t what Liam wanted to hear. The usually decisive Liam was avoiding the truth.Alec remained silent, waiting for his boss to respond.After a long pause...Liam's voice was faint and tight, almost as if he were asking himself, "You also think she doesn’t love me.""Yes," Alec replied firmly. "I believe if Miss Chase had any feelings for you, she couldn’t have been so heartless. You should stop searching for her. Someone who is intentionally hiding cannot be found."There was silence again.Alec took a deep breath and braced himself. "Besides, if you did find her now and discovered she was deeply in love with Mr. Palmer... could you handle that?"There was finally some noise from the other end, but no words, and then the line went dead.What Alec didn’t know was that his words had hit Liam hard, as if the call was the final straw that broke the camel’s back.Liam realize

Intimidating a newbie like this was easy."Call that holdout tenant right now and tell him we've changed the design plans, so it doesn't matter whether he moves or not," Suzy instructed, glancing at Emma's phone and indicating she should make the call in front of her.Though Emma was already quite frightened, Suzy needed to ensure everything went smoothly to avoid any complications.Emma hesitated, looking distressed. "He's very aggressive. He'll definitely yell at me!""Well, you can choose between the company suing you for damages or him yelling at you," Suzy said with a shrug, spreading her hands. This wasn’t a negotiation."Isn't there another way? If I were to say that, he'd think I'm playing him! He'll definitely retaliate against me later.""You're an adult. You need to take responsibility for your actions, right?" Suzy said, standing up and opening the hotel door. "Since you’re unwilling to cooperate and are trying to bargain, we’ll forget it. The company will proceed as usual,

When Suzy arrived at the site, Peter was on the phone with the company higher-ups. He gestured for her to wait upon seeing her.She nodded slightly and glanced over at the holdout tenant.Previously, he had been stubborn, holding his head high, but now he was cooperative, speaking amicably with the project manager."Suzy," Peter called out after finishing his call, his face beaming. "I have to hand it to you! You solved this problem so quickly.""I just figured there must be some vested interests involved," Suzy said, raising an eyebrow and smiling. "But don’t celebrate too soon. There could still be trouble ahead.""He agreed to the demolition and signed the papers. What trouble?""True, but... we didn’t actually change the design plans."The holdout tenant would likely keep an eye on the final resort project. When he realized he had been tricked, he would almost certainly cause a fuss with the company. He might even create a scene when the resort opens."If he were to try anything, I

"Alright, alright, you’re right." Wendy sighed. "Honestly, when you two first separated, I thought you’d regret it, especially when you were about to go into the delivery room. I really thought you’d contact him."If it had been her, she would have reached out to the most important person in her life during such a critical time.When Suzy was in labor and experiencing complications, the doctors handed Wendy a critical condition notice to sign. Wendy was so terrified that she cried hysterically outside the delivery room.It was probably the hardest thing Wendy had ever signed."I had already made up my mind. I wanted the truth, and if that meant giving him up, I couldn’t regret it."It wouldn’t be fair to Liam."So...what are you planning to do about 'him'? You can’t keep him abroad forever."Realizing who Wendy was referring to, a look of worry crossed Suzy’s face. She frowned deeply before sighing softly."Wendy, I did this because—"Wendy interrupted, "I know why you did it, but this
