Semua Bab Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back: Bab 121 - Bab 130

"She admires you and has feelings for you. It's natural for her to feel hostility toward me. She simply bumped into me when she rushed over and said some half-hearted words. She ignored my contributions just to get closer to you in front of me. She has no real impact on me," Liesel continued."She's just a naive student. How could she possibly insult me? You're the one who's gone too far."A sharp glint flashed in Liesel's cold eyes as she fixed her dissatisfied gaze on Jacob.Jacob looked at her impassively and gave her space to explain. Liesel seized the opportunity and calmly said, "You know everyone was watching her. They were waiting for her to be humiliated and forced to flee. They were waiting for her to be crushed by your disdain. Just as they expected, you responded with cold, harsh words. Maybe you don't care, and maybe she won't affect you, but your actions could ruin her life."Vivian hadn't actually done anything wrong. She was bolder and more calculating than the ot

The night sky was empty, yet it seemed the whole universe was shining in Liesel's eyes.Jacob watched her.Liesel only cast a brief glance at him before shifting her gaze elsewhere.Jacob had always known that she was extraordinary.Since marrying him, she had gone out of her way to prove herself. She was always buried in complex plans and a packed schedule. Their interactions were mostly limited to work and the bedroom.He knew Liesel could play the piano, but he had never truly seen her play.Dressed in a fiery red evening gown, she radiated a brilliance so dazzling it seemed to light up the room.In his eyes, everything else faded into the background the moment Liesel entered.Her slender, graceful fingers flew across the piano keys, filling the room with a powerful and passionate melody. The music wasn't just beautiful. It was commanding. It added a striking strength to her already captivating charm.She was breathtaking.Not far from the stage stood a grove of locust tre

"Ms. Sharp not only looked at my notes but also borrowed them. She gave me her business card and offered me the chance for an internship. You all saw it from such a distance, didn't you?"Vivian felt even more grateful to Liesel now.Liesel must have known exactly what she would face when she returned, which is why she stepped in to help her beforehand. If not, things would have been much harder for her.Sheyna laughed mockingly."Now you're saying all that? Do you really think we didn't notice you were originally trying to get Mr. Ford's attention? In fact, Ms. Sharp nearly tripped over you when you bumped into her."Vivian's expression darkened. She felt a pang of guilt. Before she could respond, a soft laugh came from behind her."She came to find me. Do we really need to overcomplicate something so simple?"Liesel stood behind Vivian. Her gaze was firm and authoritative.Sheyna was stunned into silence for a moment before stammering, "She was clearly after Mr. Ford...""I

Although Sheyna noticed everyone's doubtful gaze, she didn't calm down. Instead, she grew even more furious. She shouted, demanding an explanation from Vivian, and even insisted on reviewing the surveillance footage.However, no one had come near Sheyna. She had fallen on her own, and all of this was just nonsense.Whispers spread among the crowd, followed by mocking smiles.At that moment, Jacob raised his arm. Everyone turned to look, including Sheyna."Take her away. She's too loud," he coldly said. His tone carried a hint of annoyance.The farce had gone on long enough. Finally, a lecturer from the finance faculty stepped forward to apologize. He even went to assist Sheyna himself.His demeanor seemed gentle, but he was dragging her forcefully toward the door.Seeing herself in such a miserable state, especially in front of the person she admired, Sheyna couldn't hold back her tears. The rejection was too much for her. She burst into loud sobs.She struggled to break free f

Today would be Natalie's make-or-break day. To others, this was just a meeting, but to her, it was the most crucial turning point of her life to date.Liesel set aside the document and was about to leave when Natalie grabbed her wrist tightly. Stopping in her tracks, she lowered her gaze at Natalie. "What's the matter?" she asked coldly."You must be waiting for me to make a fool of myself, aren't you?" Natalie bit her lower lip, appearing as though she was sure that Liesel had that idea on her mind. "I'm telling you, it's you and Elijah who have made a mistake this time. It will not be me!"Liesel was composed. She looked up and said, "Why are you afraid, then?""Afraid? Why would I be afraid? I'm excited and happy. Soon, I'm going to be… a senior executive manager in Ford Corporation, a position you'll never reach in your life," Natalie said in a low voice. She was trying to pressure Liesel."You're amazing, then." Liesel's face was stoic as she left.Clutching her fists tigh
