Lahat ng Kabanata ng Love and Devotion: No Longer His to Claim: Kabanata 321 - Kabanata 330

Thankfully, Angela kept those two names to herself.Dexter stood up icily and left abruptly, leaving a lingering chill in the ward.Angela felt indifferent about his departure. She was even glad he had left—she could finally sleep peacefully.Dexter was furious and paced by the door with his hands on his hips. After waiting for over half an hour without Angela coming out, he finally gave up and cursed her for being heartless.He was frustrated by her claim that there were no good men in the world. It was unfair to him. How could she dismiss all men simply because of Zayn's cowardice?…After Angela spent two days in the hospital, her menstrual period had finally ended. Then, she rested at home for two days before finally returning to the company like she had been longing to do.Clara mentioned that the department of supervision had recently identified and penalized several staff members for violations over the past two days, according to the company's policy. That had resulted i

Marco's face flushed with embarrassment. After a thoughtful pause, he suggested, "Ms. Winslow, let's be lenient. How about I dock half a month's salary from his pay?"Clara remained silent.Damian sat nervously in the corner, his blank stare revealing his anxiety. He had barely been at work for two weeks, and now he faced a potential fine. Clearly, Marco wasn't doing that well in the company to protect him. "How about this? I'll ask him to apologize to you, and then I'll ensure that he..."Marco shifted the topic, changing tacks. "Ms. Winslow, the department of supervision has upset many in the company lately. Bringing this issue to light again could put you and Ms. Graham in a difficult position. We're all here for the company's benefit, so let's discuss and resolve this."Clara paused to reflect before deciding to set the issue aside for the moment. "Terminate his employment, and make sure you explain it to Ms. Graham in person. Otherwise, don't hold me responsible for takin

Clara reported the case to the police, while the executives expressed their discontent quietly.However, what took everyone by surprise was that, before the police could arrive, Damian went to the rooftop. He positioned himself on the railing in an attempt to take his own life. "I can't live anymore. I didn't even commit any terrible offense. It's just a few photos. I can erase them. Why are you threatening me and calling the police?" Damian trembled with fear, gripping the railing with one leg dangling over.The crowd watching the chaos was split into two groups. Some supported Clara, insisting she should take action against Damian as a victim to hold him accountable and prevent future misconduct. Others believed that although Damian's actions were wrong, they didn't require police involvement. Both sides argued passionately."How could the HR department possibly hire someone like this without conducting any background checks? Old pervert! It's no big deal even if he dies. It

After that, Angela left calmly. Clara and the others followed her into the office."Ms. Graham, how can you be so nice?" Clara couldn't help herself hugging Angela, tears streaming down her face in a mix of grievance and gratitude.Angela was speechless. "Calm down. You did a great job today. If it weren't for you, more female employees might have been sexually harassed. Our company will never tolerate such a scum." Clara replied with a nod, "But this approach leaves you vulnerable to attacks from both sides. Those men weren't convinced by you to begin with."Angela remained unfazed. "There's nothing to fear. If they have the power to do it, they can bring me down. Otherwise, they should just remain silent.""Ms. Graham, I'd love to take you out for dinner later," Clara suggested, her eyes sparkling with admiration. Despite being nearly the same age, Clara had become Angela's devoted supporter. "Sure. I'm craving something with a stronger flavor," Angela replied, nearly s

Clara's initial perception of Dexter, which started off quite negative, had transformed into a positive one. Moreover, since Dexter was looking out for Angela, Clara was naturally inclined to support him.Thus, Angela truly lost her freedom to eat. Dexter instructed Joanne to deliver meals to her. Occasionally, when he was available, he would make the effort to visit her at Graham Group. Within just a few days, Dexter's food deliveries had practically turned into a sensation among the employees.Word spread quickly among female employees that Angela excelled at managing the company and her private life. Many wanted her to hold a class to teach them how to handle men effectively.Angela laughed at the trending topic on the company's internal portal. "Is it really that big of a deal? Are all our employees this open-minded? "Some even asked if I've been in love multiple times, implying I'm proficient at managing men. Do I really give off the impression that I would sacrifice everyt
