Zane was still holding a grudge over something that had happened so long ago."Which Ms. Bell are you actually referring to?" Randy thought for a moment. "Is it the heiress of the bankrupt Bell Group?""Of course." Zane didn't hesitate to sell Sierra out.Sierra's heart tightened without her even realizing it.These people didn't know she had once been with John, but their wedding had been grand. Everyone in their circle with even a bit of status and a decent relationship with them had been invited.If these people started asking questions up the hierarchy, they could very easily find out. When that happened, coming to work would no longer be just coming to work."Well… Not exactly," Zane added calmly.Randy blinked.The people around them were confused.So… Was she or was she not the same person?Zane started talking nonsense. "The Bell Group heiress was much more compliant than her. She's educated and well-mannered, gentle and kind. This woman can't measure up to her at all

John glared at the screen and finally said to Kenneth, "She's Sierra."Kenneth nodded. "I know."John continued, "She should never have to bow and apologize to anyone."From the moment John met her, he knew that Sierra had a spine of steel underneath her soft and delicate exterior. Forcing her to apologize... Who did that Hawthorne brat think he was?"Don't you think you're contradicting yourself here?" Kenneth once again failed to understand John's view of love. "You're the one who wanted other people to make things hard for her, and now you're the one who can't stand watching it."John's gaze deepened as he watched the security feed."Either you let Sierra live her own life and stay completely out of it no matter what happens, even if she dies," Kenneth went on, "or you protect her all the way and never let anyone lay a hand on her."John stayed silent, eyes fixed on the laptop screen. The hotel manager's number was already pulled up on the phone in his hand.Seeing that, Ken

"Is he with you at the Origin Games' tenth anniversary party?" Pamela's voice kept echoing from Sierra's phone. "Can you help me find him? I feel really sick right now and kind of awful.""How much are you paying?" Sierra asked. She was so used to this move from Pamela that she could handle Pamela calmly.Pamela froze. She hadn't expected that."If it's less than ten million dollars, you can forget about it," Sierra said lazily. "I don't have time for small jobs like yours.""I..." The line cut off with the busy tone as Sierra hung up without hesitation.Leona and the others all looked over, curious. "Sierra, who was that?""Just a scam call. I was messing with them a little," Sierra said as she put on her gown. She moved quickly, putting on light makeup and fixing her hair.Jenny, Leona, and the others couldn't help but stare at her speed in admiration.With less than half an hour before they had to go onstage, Sierra had already finished changing. She did the makeup for the o

John and Pamela chatted for a while longer when John received a message from Kenneth.[They're here. I'm going to deal with them first. If anything comes up, call me.]John's fingers moved, and he replied, [Alright.]After reading the response, Kenneth put his phone away and fixed his attention on Sierra down in the ballroom.By then, all the performances were over. The company had started handing out the Top Ten Leadership Awards, with each department sending someone up to accept a prize. In Sierra's department, the award went to Jenny.After that came the Top Ten Employee Awards.Once every prize had been handed out, the host launched into an impassioned speech about how the company and its employees achieved success together. When he finished the official lines, he looked to the other side of the stage. "Next, let us give a warm round of applause to Mr. Morgan Snyder's friends!"The whole hall started to clap their hands.Right after that, Sierra saw Zane and a whole col

The Bell family went bankrupt, and John divorced Sierra.Sierra went from the wife of a wealthy family to a lowly wage slave. She had gone from a life of comfort, where luxury items came easily, to living on a fixed paycheck.With a drop like that, how could she still live with such determination?"Well?" Sierra asked when Wendy was quiet for a long time. Wendy would be lying if she said she felt nothing.Wendy raised her phone and aimed it at her. "Fine, I agree. But you have to let me take a few photos. If you ever spill my secrets, I'll post these miserable pictures of you everywhere.""Alright." Sierra agreed without hesitation. She even lifted her hand in a peace sign.Wendy fell silent. She pushed Sierra's hand back down and snapped several photos in a row."You're so cooperative… Aren't you worried I’ll share these immediately?" Wendy asked. She didn't understand Sierra anymore."I'm not. They're just a few photos. Post them if you want," Sierra said. Her words struck
