All Chapters of You Left Me for Your Secretary, so Why Are You Begging at My Wedding?: Chapter 331 - Chapter 340

Mrs. Smith Sr. looked unconcerned, while Michael’s brow furrowed so hard it looked like it might get stuck.“Mom, do you even understand how important this partnership with Henderson Corporation is for Smith Corporation?” he demanded. “If we lose this deal, the other three families will leave us in the dust.”Mrs. Smith Sr. was blunt. “Smith Corporation has already been left in the dust. Losing this deal just means you fall a little further. Big deal.”Michael began pacing, restless and anxious. “Mom, don’t forget—you hold the largest share in the company.”“I know that,” she said coolly. “But maybe you’re the one who’s confused. Do you even remember which of them is your real daughter, Liz or Mandy?”Michael froze, his voice rising with anger. “Do you think I don’t want a good relationship with Liz? You’ve seen it yourself. Mandy is more sensible and more capable than Liz. At least Mandy doesn’t constantly go against me and Kimberly. Anyone would prefer the child who listens and

Partnering directly with Henderson Corporation’s headquarters was something Michael had never even dared to dream of before. Yet now, it had actually happened.Maybe Liz wasn’t so useless after all. He decided he would ask Kimberly to cook a few of Liz’s favorite dishes one of these days and invite her home for dinner.Meanwhile, after leaving the Smith estate, Liz went straight to the law firm.When Hunter spotted her, he jumped to his feet, guilt flickering in his eyes. “Liz, you’re back.”She gave a small nod. “Yes. Get back to work.”He had gone with her to Halston, which meant his own workload had probably piled up over the past few days.Inside her office, Liz saw the mountain of files stacked on her desk and let out a sigh. Resigned, she sat down and began working through them.By the time her phone buzzed, it was already evening. She glanced at the clock. It was just past six, and the sky outside had already begun to darken.It was a message from William, asking where s

Xena gave a cold laugh. “Don’t worry. I’ll never end up like you, eight years with a man and still no ring. That’s just pathetic.”“If I marry him, you won’t even have the right to sit here and provoke me.”Before she could continue, Kim leaned in and whispered, “Xena, stop. People are starting to stare. You’re Mr. Lincoln’s fiancée now. If you cause a scene, you’ll embarrass him and the whole company.”Xena glanced around and saw several nearby tables watching her with open disdain. A wave of unease washed over her. In her anger, she had forgotten it was the dinner rush. The restaurant was nearly full, and in a place like this, people kept their voices low. Her raised tone had already made her stand out in the worst way.Her expression shifted as she turned back to Kim with a frown. “Why didn’t you warn me sooner?”If Kim had spoken up earlier, she would not have lost face like this.Kim bristled at the blame. Xena had been the one to lose control with Liz, so why was it suddenl

“What does this have to do with you?”Mandy was practically furious. She had spent so much time securing that deal, only to have it ruined by Liz’s stubbornness. How could she possibly swallow that?“No connection to me? Do you even know how long I worked for this? That deal was critical for the company. And now, because of your selfishness, it’s gone. Don’t you feel the least bit guilty toward the employees who worked alongside me?”Liz’s expression stayed calm. She waited until Mandy finished before speaking in a quiet voice. “Mandy, I’m not the one you should be questioning. You should be questioning Riley. If she hadn’t used her position for revenge and forced me to apologize by threatening to cancel the contract, that deal would never have fallen through.”“What would have been so hard about just apologizing to her? It was such an easy thing to fix, and you turned it into something that can’t be undone. Are you jealous that Mom and Dad treat me better? Is that why you did this

Michael nodded. “Alright, go on. I still have a few files to deal with.”“Okay, Dad. Don’t work too late. Your health matters more.”“I know.”After leaving Michael’s office, Mandy went straight to the underground parking garage.Once inside her car, she didn’t rush to leave. Instead, she sat there for a long time.She couldn’t understand how Liz had managed to sign a contract with Henderson Corporation’s headquarters.What did that make of all the effort she had poured into building a connection with Riley? Was it all for nothing?The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she felt.Why was Liz so lucky? Why did her own hard work feel like nothing but a joke?Her bag suddenly buzzed.Pulling out her phone and seeing the number on the screen, she drew in a deep breath before answering. “Why are you calling me now?”“I missed you. Are you free tonight? I’m waiting for you at the villa.”“Alright. I’ll be right over.”She ended the call, tossed the phone onto the pass
