"It's fine," Winter replied, lowering her gaze. Nothing she could say would change anything.She grabbed her phone and answered, "Hello, Sasha—""Oh, my God! Babe, you've really outdone yourself!" Sasha shouted, practically bouncing with excitement. "Look at you, Winz! I can't believe you're hiring male models like it's no big deal!"Winter frowned and pressed a hand over her own mouth. "Sasha!""Oops, my bad! Winz, let's just pretend you're starting a modeling agency, okay?"Ezekiel walked away at a leisurely pace.Winter sank onto the couch, panic creeping into her voice. "Sasha, please don't misunderstand. There's nothing going on between him and me.""So who is he?" Sasha drawled, her eyes sparkling with curiosity."It's a long story. He's a single father. Anyway, it's not really convenient to explain right now. I'll tell you everything later." Winter glanced around and lowered her voice. "Why did you call me so early? What's going on?""Last night, I happened to overhear

"I heard from Sean that you completely dismissed the previous version of the chip model during the last meeting. Is that true?" Joshua asked, his brow furrowed. "Was the previous version really that bad?""Both its performance and algorithms are outdated. Back when I was studying in Maeveria, that type of data model was popular. But now, it's been surpassed by more advanced alternatives on the market."Jessica shook her head solemnly, her eyes showing a mix of confidence and pride."For Stroud Group's new energy vehicles, we must deliver unparalleled performance and the most advanced technology in the domestic market. Otherwise, how can we justify the hundreds of millions you've invested in our R&D department every year?""Jessica, I can't thank you enough," Joshua said, slamming his fist on the table in frustration. "With her huge salary, Connie still managed to give me this shit! The R&D department was almost wrecked under her watch!"Jessica's eyes darkened, her lips curving ev

Joshua's lips curved into a smirk, an icy glint flashing in his gaze. "Winter can go on dreaming if she thinks she can leave me and run off with another man!"Jessica's eyes widened in shock. It felt as though a bolt of lightning had just struck her."Not only will I refuse to divorce her," Joshua continued, "I'll make our marriage public and let the whole world know she is mine."His eyes narrowed, a cold, mocking smile tugging at his lips. "When that happens, I'd like to see whether Ezekiel still dares to pursue Winter—unless he wants to be labeled the other man and condemn his son to a lifetime of shame among his peers."Hearing this, Sean's eyes gleamed. He couldn't resist stealing a quick glance at Jessica.Just as expected, Jessica's expression darkened. She looked utterly miserable."Tonight, have someone keep an eye on Ezekiel's house. The moment Winter appears, report to me immediately!" Joshua commanded.…As night descended, a Maybach rolled to a stop in front of the

Several passing employees shot Winter astonished glances. Soon, they began to whisper among themselves."Did you see that? Mr. Hall was so polite to Ms. Everhart. He's far more attentive to her than he ever is with Ms. Lynch!""Wow, talk about a 180! Didn't you use to make fun of Ms. Everhart?""Well, I didn't realize she was so skilled at navigating office politics! She's clearly risen in rank. We might as well crown her with a noble title!""Mr. Stroud's private elevator is supposed to be reserved for him and Ms. Lynch. I can't believe Ms. Everhart is allowed to ride it too. Her influence is truly impressive!"As Winter entered the office, Joshua stood with his back to her. Facing the window, he slowly sipped his coffee, his gaze drifting across the lively city of Jeston.His silhouette was tall and commanding. It almost felt as though he were a part of the cold, merciless concrete jungle before him.In Winter's dreams, Joshua had always appeared as a vision of untouched perfe

"You don't want Elijah's life to be ruined forever, do you?" Joshua taunted."Alright, I'll do it," Winter said without hesitation. A tremor ran through her voice, held back by simmering resentment.How could she have ever loved such a despicable man?How could she have been so blind and foolish?How could she ever forgive herself for being so oblivious?She had brought nothing but pain to the people she cared about most."You may leave. I still have to attend an AI technology conference later.""Go to your stupid conference for all I care," Winter muttered inwardly.With a stoic expression, Joshua picked up the documents on the table and began flipping through them. "If you still consider yourself a mother, go back and see Terry in the next few days. If you don't, he'll soon become someone else's kid.""That's exactly what he wants, isn't it?" Winter let out a hoarse laugh. "While I've been away, I'm sure you and Terry have had the most carefree time of your lives.""Winter,
