Semua Bab Who's the One Regretting Now?: Bab 201 - Bab 210

It was well past office hours by the time the matter was settled. The human resource personnel came to apologize, but were scolded by their own supervisor afterward. Palmer smiled obsequiously as he walked Alice out, while the other employees either stayed for overtime or left for the day.Inside the elevator, Macie linked her arms with Alice and said, "Thanks for standing up for me today."Alice huffed. "I doubt anyone from your department will dare mess with you again. I bet they've all learned their lesson. But still, why didn't you have Julian fire them? They're such an eyesore.""That recording was my fault. I let my guard down and answered a personal call at work. Office gossip happens everywhere, and Julian did shut the group chat down right away, so it didn't really affect me," Macie explained.Then, she leaned her head against Alice's shoulder and continued, "As for the report… someone flagged that I marked 'single' on my resume. That was a careless mistake. I forgot to ch

"But Edward might end up buying Sunnyridge Heights. If he does, he'll know exactly where I live." Macie sighed. "So I've been thinking… maybe it's time I look for a new place. I could put this one on the market soon.""List it. If Edward really does buy this place, you can move in with me," Alice said. "Honestly, he's insane. As if buying your office building wasn't enough, now he wants to buy your home too? Why doesn't he just go ahead and buy the entire city?"Macie twirled some spaghetti and ate it quietly. She thought that Edward was indeed messed up. There was nothing he wouldn't do just to drag her back into his life and torment her all over again. She couldn't and wouldn't let that happen.Halfway through dinner, Alice was scrolling through her phone when a message popped up. It was from Sean. She then looked up from her phone and asked, "May, would it be alright if I packed up some leftovers later?""Leftovers? What for?" Macie asked."My older brother saw the pictures I p

Edward returned from the balcony but couldn't find Sean. So he made a beeline for the banquet hall's main entrance. However, there was no one outside. He asked the guards at the door if anyone had left recently, but they shook their heads in response. As such, he went back inside. He started weaving through the crowd, brushing past men and women alike, ignoring anyone who tried to engage him in conversation. After several tense minutes of scanning the ballroom, he finally spotted Sean, who was casually chatting with a group of businessmen. Edward clenched his fist and took a slow, deep breath to steady himself. He then grabbed a glass of champagne before seamlessly joining the group. Sean noticed him from the corner of his eye. He took a small sip of his drink while the other businessmen talked to Edward.One of the older men, Brian Larson, looked at both of them and said, "Mr. Hart and Mr. Fowler, both of you are exceptional young men, the best of the best in your family busi

Meanwhile, a red Ferrari pulled up outside the mansion. Alice stepped out with a thermal food container in hand. After reading Sean's message, she thought, "There's no way Edward could do anything to me. Not unless he wants to end up in prison."She wasn't Macie, who had been tortured but couldn't fight back because of the influence Fowler Group wielded. If Edward messed with her, he'd regret it. With that sneer fresh on her face, she suddenly spotted someone running toward her in the distance. She squinted and realized that it was none other than Edward.Instinctively, she stepped aside. She wasn't afraid of the Fowlers, but a punch would still hurt. Moreover, her older brother hadn't shown up yet.As the man drew closer, she had already moved out of the way. Alice assumed that Edward was charging at her, but instead, he blew right past her. Alice was dumbfounded. She turned around and noticed him rushing up to her Ferrari. He bent down, knocked on the window, and called out Ma

Sean was about to leave, but before he did, he delivered the final blow. He said, "Macie's a real gem. She's beautiful and has a fantastic figure. Her waist is so slim that I can hold her with one hand. Her hands are soft, smooth, and pale. "But she's a little skinny. No worries, though. I'll fatten her up soon."Edward and Alice were both dumbstruck. Consumed with jealousy, all Edward could see was red as he glared at Sean's retreating figure. "Damn you! Get the hell away from Macie! Stay out of other people's marriages, you home-wrecking bastard! "I won't let this slide, you hear me? You'd better watch your back! I'm going to bring down Hart Group and make sure you disappear from Williamford for good!" However, his outburst didn't make Sean turn around at all. The latter kept walking with one hand in his pocket, looking like he couldn't care less about what Edward had said.Alice, still frozen in shock, snapped back to her senses when she noticed her brother walking away.
