"Bring her home, and will they accept her?" Luke's eyes were cold. "They broke the agreement first. I owe them nothing."Is Luke's relationship with his family strained? He never talks about them. I hesitated, wanting to ask but thinking better of it. I held back my words.Luke handed the folder back to me. "You handle it.""Mr. Walker, are you agreeing to go on the dates?"I was surprised. Given Luke's character, I expected him to ignore this. His quick agreement caught me off guard."Don't want me to go?"Luke looked up, his sharp eyes making you feel as if your secrets were laid bare.I quickly shook my head. "You must have your reasons, Mr. Walker."Remembering his earlier words, I knew he had a plan."You seemed to trust me a lot regarding this," Luke said with a hint of self-mockery. "Arrange it discreetly, as she requested. I'll play along.""When would be a suitable time for these dates?""Don't let it interfere with work.""Understood, Mr. Walker.""If the Walker

As soon as I finished speaking, Bryan gently kicked me under the table.He probably thought I was using my position to set Luke up with a girlfriend. Knowing Luke's way of doing things, he'd surely make me pay for it later.Bryan was warning me to stop while I was ahead, to avoid causing trouble for myself.I wanted to tell him that I didn't want to do this either, but I had no choice - I was here on a mission!Luke's expression remained impassive. Seeing that Luke hadn't stormed off in anger, Bryan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He then discreetly studied Tina, probably thinking Luke was treating her differently.I couldn't tell him the truth, so I had to let him speculate."I can see that," Tina said, nudging her business card closer to Luke. "I wonder if there's an opportunity for our companies to collaborate.""Watsons Cosmetics entered the makeup market a few years ago, didn't it?" Luke finally spoke up.Tina's face lit up. "Yes, it's been a while. You seem quite fami

"I..." I didn't have that kind of ability!I was about to tell Mrs. Walker I couldn't do it, but then I remembered Luke's words. I put on a troubled expression and stammered for a moment before saying, "I... I'll try my best.""I'm not trying to make things difficult for you, Ms. Middleton. It's just that these potential matches come from prominent families. If we make too many enemies, it could affect his future career. And as his assistant, if his career doesn't go well, your job would be affected too. We need to minimize the negative impact.""I understand, Mrs. Walker."After giving her instructions, Mrs. Walker asked her driver, "David, what time is it?""It's 6:30 PM, ma'am.""Already 6:30? I've enjoyed chatting with Ms. Middleton so much, I lost track of time," Mrs. Walker said with a warm smile. "Ms. Middleton, shall we have dinner together?""I've already eaten. If you have no other instructions, I'll head home now."Mrs. Walker was clearly trying to wrap things up. Wi

Julius looked up, wiping cold sweat from his forehead. It was obvious from his expression that he was lying.I handed him a tissue.He mumbled a quiet "Thank you.""If the company head is so busy, it seems like you, as his assistant, have a lot of free time. Your position seems unnecessary," Luke said sharply.Luke's words scared Julius. He quickly replied, "I... I'm usually busy too, I...""Tell me about your usual tasks.""I... I usually... usually..."Julius was so nervous that he forgot what he usually did. Since I had shown him kindness earlier, he looked to me for help."Julius, there's no need to be nervous. Mr. Walker is just asking about Mr. Thornton's typical work hours," I said gently, maintaining a soft smile. "Although Mr. Walker rarely comes to Hanque, he's quite familiar with its operations. If you want to keep working here, it's best to tell the truth.""Mr... Mr. Thornton went out for a business dinner last night and had quite a few drinks. Based on his usual

Neil didn't believe Luke's claims. He looked at the financial director and tried to shift blame, saying, "Mr. Henderson made several errors in the last financial report. I reprimanded him severely. He must have forged these receipts to frame me out of revenge.""Mr. Thornton, lies can't become truth, and truth can't become lies. If you think I'm framing you, we can have the police come and investigate," Henderson replied calmly.Upon Luke's silent signal, I took out my phone, prepared to call the police.Witnessing Luke's determination to thoroughly investigate, Neil finally grasped the seriousness of the situation. He hurriedly said, "Mr. Walker, Felfast just launched a new car model, and their stock price is soaring. If negative news about Hanque comes out now, it will surely affect our company."While Felfast was being praised, Hanque, their competitor, was being ridiculed. Many online users were claiming that Hanque was on its last legs, lacking the capital to compete against F
