At that moment, Harold was flattering Elara like a wolf in sheep's clothing. Elara just looked at him silently, wondering what he was trying to do.Seeing how she wasn't reacting at all, he lamented solemnly, "Considering our country's environment, it's hard to have true talent! No one understands it better than a person like me. I had to do my best just to achieve greatness after leaving my old town."Elara, I'm only saying this because I can see your potential. If you want to get into research and development, you should go overseas. After all, our country is falling too far behind other countries. You can only achieve true freedom by going overseas!"Hearing that, Elara just said, "I only want to provide for my family now."Hearing how she didn't have any ambitions, Harold smiled, thinking how she was just book-smart. He figured she would never make it big in the real working world as she was just a housewife at the end of the day.So, he suggested, "If you want to find a job,

Niamh was overfilled with joy. When she let go of Beau, she noticed there was a watermark on her shirt. So, she asked, "Huh? Did you drink some water earlier?"Beau shook his head and said, "No. I was throwing up just now."Niamh was speechless when she heard that, and her face fell drastically. She hurriedly grabbed some napkins to wipe her shirt, but it just made the stains even worse. Gritting her teeth as hard as possible, Niamh subtly pushed Beau and said, "Take a seat, Beau."She was instinctively holding her breath because she could smell the pungent stench coming from her shirt!Meanwhile, Abel was sitting next to Niamh. Seeing how much Beau loved his younger daughter, he nodded in satisfaction. He wasn't that worried about Elara's divorce from Harvey. As long as one of his daughters could capture Beau and Harvey's hearts, then the Jones family could still rely on the Fishers.When Merida saw her grandparents and Niamh, she stood there with a serious look.Then, Elara ask

Harvey's brows furrowed. He had asked Cyrus to handle the dress. According to the assistant, it was custom-made based on Elara's measurements. As for when those measurements were taken, Harvey never bothered to ask. To him, Elara was just a placeholder—a wife in name only.They hadn't shared a bed in a long time. He had zero interest in her body. So, Harvey didn't care if she was skinny or fat. It didn't matter to him in the slightest."If the dress doesn't fit, have it altered until it does," Harvey said flatly. He already felt like he was indulging her enough. Elara picked up the document that had been placed on top of the dress box. "So, Fisher Corp wants me in the tech department?" Harvey replied, "I want to place you in the Chief Secretary’s Office as my personal secretary."Elara blinked, then let out a short laugh. "So, after seven years of being your unpaid nanny, you're finally willing to pay me? And for what? To keep me by your side?" Harvey's expression

The sheer weight of Leonard's presence crushed Abel, making it nearly impossible to breathe. In front of Leonard, he was too scared to say a single word."But…" Abel started, his voice weak. How the hell did it feel like Leonard was more of a father to Elara than he was? "You only need to answer me with one thing—do you understand?" Leonard's voice was calm, almost indifferent, yet it carried the force of a command. Abel's survival instincts kicked in. His throat bobbed as he struggled to force out the words. "Y-yes… I understand." Leonard's gaze lingered on him for a second longer before he turned away. Oliver pushed his wheelchair forward until he reached the head of the table. His eyes swept over the table, landing on a gift box carelessly tossed aside. A manila envelope with Fisher Corp's logo had slipped out onto the table. "What's this?" Leonard demanded.Harvey answered, "An employment offer for Elara." Leonard tilted his chin slightly, and Oliver immediat

Harvey's jaw tightened, the muscles along his neck tensing as his Adam's apple bobbed slightly. Leonard's voice remained steady and calm—almost like a teacher correcting a stubborn student. "If you understand, then answer me with a simple 'okay.'" A sharp, tingling numbness crept over Harvey's scalp. For the first time in his life, he lowered his head. "…Okay." His broad shoulders, usually squared with authority, now sagged under an invisible weight. Defeat clung to him like a shadow. Leonard, satisfied with the response, turned and left. …Elara walked beside Leonard as they exited the restaurant. "Prof. Fisher, thanks for having my back in there," she said. Still in awe, Merida said, "Prof. Fisher, you were amazing!" Her head was still reeling from what she had just witnessed. For the first time ever, she had seen Harvey completely shut down. Her wide eyes shone with admiration as she looked up at Leonard. To her, he was someone from an entirely
