Sierra's lips turned into a mocking smile as she looked at John. "Keep dreaming." "It's not a dream," John shot back."You can give up already," Sierra had never once backed down on this. "Even if I end up begging on the street and starving, I won't ever come back.""Don't jump to conclusions about things you don't know the whole story to," John said, his tone calm and low. "Don't forget, your words have a way of coming back and biting you."Sierra didn't want to talk to him anymore. Her loathing for him had hit its peak, but the anger in her chest still would not go down. After a long moment of silence, she finally snapped and asked, "Why do you keep holding on to me and refusing to let go?!""Because you're Sierra." Her name gave her that rustic charm and a heart stronger than his, like an unbreakable mountain range."Then I'll go change my name to something else tomorrow," Sierra said, still in a bad mood. "You can go find yourself another Sierra."John's dark eyes rested

"Why don't you ask the people who were on stage about how angry Mr. John was when he grabbed Sierra?" Leona said to their colleagues as she stood firmly in front of Sierra, protecting her. "See if you're still in the mood to gossip after you know everything."As soon as she said that, everyone fell quiet.Gossip was a group sport. But the moment someone stepped in and cut it off, the mood shifted without anyone noticing."What are you all doing here?" Randy finally showed up. "Work hours have already started. Why aren't you at your desk? Slacking off?""Nothing much, just talking with Sierra about what happened last night," Cindy answered smoothly. She knew Randy was curious about it too, so she might as well say it out loud. If he wanted to hear it, they could use that chance to share some fresh hot tea.If Randy were the one asked, Leona would not be able to cut them off again.Sierra frowned. She glanced at Cindy, feeling that Cindy was being a little too obvious."If you h

"Sorry, sorry," Cindy apologized to her colleagues at once.After this, her earlier enthusiasm faded. Cindy wasn't completely stupid. She understood that Sierra suddenly refusing to answer her questions despite her usual courteous demeanor could only mean one thing.Sierra must have heard their conversation outside the door.Cindy didn't dare ask Sierra outright. If Sierra really was some rich heiress or someone with status, offending her would be asking for trouble.With that uneasiness hanging over her, the morning passed, and noon arrived. At exactly twelve, Cindy went to Sierra again and asked, "Let's have lunch together. What do you want to eat? My treat.""I have something else to do. I won't be eating at the company," Sierra replied. Sierra finished the last of her work and put her computer to sleep mode. Then, she picked up her purse and walked out of the office.Cindy felt stung by the cold response, but she also knew that Sierra had hardly ever stayed for lunch at

That afternoon, Sierra asked around the company to see if anyone wanted to buy the dishwasher voucher at a discount.After the post sat there for about half an hour with no replies, she put the dishwasher model up on a secondhand platform. The original price was around three thousand dollars, and she listed it for two thousand five hundred dollars.She had no use for it, so she might as well sell it for some cash."You're really selling it?" Jenny asked after seeing the post."Yeah. I don't need it anyway," Sierra said.Jenny pursed her lips but did not say anything in the end.News of this reached John at Henderson Group very quickly. John pulled up Sierra's post on the message board for Origin Games. His eyes grew darker as he stared at it, and he only snapped out of it when Robin called him on the phone. "Boss.""What is it?" John held his phone, his tone low."Ms. Bell went to see Solomon at the hospital this afternoon," Robin reported. "They talked for more than ten mi

"I don't care if you want the shares my dad has. That's none of my business. But you're not touching anything I own," Holly said to Pamela, stating her intent clearly without wasting any time. "If you do, I'll tell John what you did."Pamela's hands at her sides slowly curled into fists.From the way Holly reacted, Pamela could see that Holly didn't know exactly what she had gone to the doctor for. If Holly had known, she would have already run to John and exposed everything. Once that happened, John would abandon her without hesitation. Without John's help, someone experienced in the business world like Jason could strip her of everything without any effort, even if she held any shares."Well?" Holly waited, seeing that Pamela had almost finished thinking about it."Fine." After weighing it repeatedly, Pamela had no choice but to agree. "But I have conditions."Holly looked completely at ease. "Go on."Pamela said slowly with a flicker of emotion in her eyes. "You're not allow
