Amanda walked in and saw that not only was Benjamin there, but Barry and Delphine were present as well.When Benjamin saw her return safely, his tightly pressed lips relaxed ever so slightly.Amanda glanced at Barry—his face was deathly pale, like a ghost.Amanda: “…”Even in this state, he could still hold on; it showed just how ruthless Barry truly was.Barry’s gaze toward her was venomous, as if wanting to cut her into a thousand pieces.These days, he’d been tormented by nightmares—each one more terrifying than the last, night after night until he felt less than human.“Amanda, it’s you, isn’t it?” Delphine asked, her tone laced with murderous intent.Amanda glanced at Benjamin’s grim face, then at Delphine, puzzled: What are they trying to do now?“Madam, it’s me, Amanda,” Amanda said with a faint smile.Delphine’s face darkened to the extreme. She had heard that Carol had gone insane.Her own son’s emotions had suddenly become unstable too. In just a few days, he’d grown visibly

When Mark saw Sheila, his face darkened as well.“Amanda.” Sheila looked at Amanda coldly, a strange, mocking smile on her face—she stared at Amanda as if she were looking at a dead person.Amanda met her gaze calmly.“You came to see me for something?” Amanda’s dark, peach blossom-shaped eyes stayed indifferent as she looked at her. Just by her expression, it was clear she had something in mind.She had come looking for trouble.Sheila smiled faintly, her expression inscrutable. “Yes. Where’s my uncle? I have something to announce.”Amanda pointed upstairs. “He’s in his study.”“Oh, in the study? Then come up with me. I have something to say to you both.” Sheila finished, then started up the stairs, her posture straight and noble.Amanda looked at her son and hesitated for a moment. One could never truly know what was in people’s hearts. Sheila had rushed in like this; it didn’t seem like she’d come to thank anyone—it seemed more like she’d come to start trouble.“Sweetheart, wait he

“Mr… Mr. Spader…”The two receptionists were so terrified that they could barely speak, and their faces turned visibly pale.Brad was famously strict and impartial. If they were fired, they’d lose the chance to work here forever.The pay here was simply too tempting to lose.Brad’s cold, sharp gaze fell on them as he asked, “Who spread the rumor you just mentioned? You’d better tell me the truth.”The receptionist on the left gathered her courage and said, “Mr. Spader, we just heard it when we were in the pantry. People were saying that the woman beside Mr. Schmidt seduced him, then gave him her design drafts because she wanted to become the company’s chief designer. That’s what everyone’s saying.”“Of course, it was wrong for us to spread rumors, Mr. Spader. Please give us another chance.”If they were fired, they would never get into the Schmidt Group again—especially as employees with a record of misconduct.Brad sneered, “Do I look like someone so kind? Go to HR, collect your pay,

Amanda turned her head away, her voice cold: “No, you must be mistaken.”Like hell she knew this idiot.“Eh? Miss, then why don’t you dare look at me?” Quincy chuckled, noticing the tiny red mole on her earlobe—his smile deepened.“Boss, if you pretend you don’t know me, it’ll break my heart,” Quincy teased, feigning a wounded look.The atmosphere instantly turned strange.Jennifer stared hard at the two of them—there must be something going on here.Benjamin’s face darkened at Quincy staring so intently at his wife.Mr. Johnson caught sight of Benjamin’s frosty expression and raised an eyebrow. Was Quincy tired of living?“Quincy, what are you doing? I brought you here to evaluate the designs—who actually plagiarized G’s work? What’s with your nonsense? Do you still want to keep your job?” Mr. Johnson scolded Quincy, visibly annoyed.Quincy froze, then looked at Mr. Johnson.“Strictly speaking, none of these count as plagiarism. But for that ‘Starlit Brilliance’ piece—just to be safe

Mr. Reed shot a deep, meaningful look at Amanda, then left first with his daughter.Today, because of Amanda, both father and daughter had lost all face.He wouldn’t let her get away with this so easily.Once the issue was settled, the other shareholders all breathed a sigh of relief. After greeting Benjamin, they each left in turn.Only when everyone else was gone did Amanda suddenly realize she was still sitting on Benjamin’s lap.She quickly stood up, her face blushing red, eyes darting everywhere, unsure where to look.The emptiness in his arms left Benjamin with a faint sense of loss he couldn’t quite explain.Amanda said hastily, “I’m leaving now. Even if I’m going to take the position, I’ll wait for the next sales results. That gives me a few months to rest.”Not waiting for Benjamin to respond, she turned and walked quickly out of the meeting room.It was only when she reached the first floor that she finally felt she could breathe freely again.She had to admit, his embrace w
