All Chapters of Too Late for Forgiveness: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Wilson asked, "Mr. Sutton, are you saying that Farrow Corporation doesn't treat its employees like people? Justin's just across the hallway. How about I take you over there later, and you can ask him how he used to treat my assistant?"Nathan's face went pale at once."That's not what I meant, Mr. Quade. I just think that even if Ms. Judd's feeling a little sick, a bit of alcohol should be fine.""Well, I think you could handle a whole case of whiskey just fine, Mr. Sutton. Why don't you go ahead and finish it all?"The room fell silent for a few seconds after the remark.Nathan's expression darkened.Someone nearby stepped in to defuse the tension."You're hilarious, Mr. Quade. Too much alcohol's no good for you. Mr. Sutton, how about we have one drink together? After that, let's focus on the food. Deal?"Nathan reluctantly took the exit.Serena's tense emotions finally eased.She hadn't expected Wilson to defend her so openly. He showed absolutely no respect for Nathan.Sh

Serena fumbled to grab her phone.She hadn't planned on bothering Lauren this late, but the anxiety in her was overwhelming. She just needed someone to talk to, someone to comfort her.She quickly found Lauren's contact and dialed in a hurry.As soon as the phone picked up, she blurted out, "Laurie, it's thundering outside, and I'm really scared. I just need to talk to someone.""Scared?" A deep voice, unmistakably a man's, came from the other end of the line.Serena froze, almost convinced her fever was making her hallucinate.Wilson spoke again. "Your voice doesn't sound right. Is your cold getting worse?""Sorry, Mr. Quade. I must've dialed the wrong number."Serena felt embarrassed. Just as she was about to hang up, Wilson stopped her. "What's wrong?""It's nothing. I'm just running a fever, and the thunder's scaring me.""Did you take medicine?""I did."Serena didn't want him to worry. "It's getting better, really. I'm fine.""Okay.""You should get some rest, Mr. Q

Serena immediately spit it out."It's disgusting!"She'd never liked taking medicine, especially this kind of traditional medicine, which was bitter and astringent. Just smelling it made her feel sick.Wilson tried to coax her. "Come on. I'll give you candy after you finish."Serena was a little speechless. "Mr. Quade, do you think I'm a three-year-old child?""I don't want to, but seeing you like this, it's hard not to treat you like one.""Mr. Quade, actually, I've been meaning to ask you something."Serena's eyes were watery, and her cheeks were flushed with a soft pink from the fever. "You're so kind to me. Do you have feelings for me?"Wilson was silent for a moment before handing her the medicine again. "Take the medicine, and I'll tell you the answer."Serena hesitated for a while but finally grabbed the glass and took small sips with great difficulty.As soon as she finished, she felt like she was going to gag.Wilson immediately put a piece of chocolate in her mouth

Wilson was surprised when he saw Serena."Didn't I text you to just take the day off? You're sick.""I know my body, Mr. Quade. Don't worry. I'm fine now," Serena replied.Seeing her looking energetic, Wilson didn't say anything more. He glanced at Serena, who stood in his office."Anything else?" she asked."No."Serena's expression remained calm. "I'll head back to work then, Mr. Quade.""Okay."As Wilson watched her back, his gaze darkened slightly.If she didn't bring it up, then he had no choice but to pretend nothing had happened last night.After the morning meeting, Wilson received a call from Gary.Gary said he'd be leaving Nocturna in a couple of days and wanted Wilson to go out with him today.Wilson agreed.After hanging up, he had Sebastian prepare some gifts. He brought Serena along as they got into the car.Inside the car, Wilson and Serena sat on both ends without speaking.An odd silence filled the space.Sebastian occasionally stole glances at them thr

For a moment, Wilson's gaze deepened.The dress was form-fitting. Any slight flaw in one's figure would be easily revealed.But Serena carried it flawlessly—her slender neck, delicate waist, and well-proportioned curves made for a striking silhouette.Her cool, reserved demeanor gave the dress an elegant allure, making it look sensual yet refined without even a hint of impropriety.She wore it perfectly.Wilson smiled. "It suits you."After Serena changed back into her clothes, Wilson turned to the store assistant. "Wrap it up."Serena wanted to refuse, but Wilson spoke before she could."You helped me land Charles' deal last time, and I never got around to rewarding you. Consider this a thank-you gift."He always had a way of making things impossible to turn down.In the end, Serena left the store with the dress in hand.By the time they returned to Gary, Desiree's mood had noticeably shifted. The brightness from earlier was gone.Gary's lips curved into a half-smile. "Who
