I had just hung up when I received a call from Jillian Dunn."John works so hard every day. I promised to reward him with a sports car a long time ago, so why are you being weird and liking that photo?"I couldn't understand her reasoning. I had just liked the photo. Why was she accusing me of being weird for doing that?Jillian didn't give me a chance to explain. "Freya has been deaf since birth. That's an irrefutable fact, no matter how expensive a cochlear implant is. Instead of wasting money on a useless piece of trash like her, I might as well reward my staff."Her words made me tremble with anger. Unable to help myself, I sneered, "By 'staff,' you mean only Jonathan, don't you?"Jillian bristled at my jab. "Am I wrong? John contributed significantly to the company and his colleagues during the bidding process. I kept a close eye on him. Considering how many staff members we have, the fact that everyone got to eat their meals on time was all thanks to him. "And you, even as

"Not only do I want to resign, but I also want a divorce, Jillian. I'll send the divorce agreement to you when the time comes," I declared.I ignored Jillian's furious shouts, slamming the door open and taking my leave.I had just exited Dunn Group's office building when I received a message from my bank. 50,000 dollars had been deposited into my account, no more, no less.My phone began ringing then. It was Elise Swan, the president of Starshower Group."Did you receive the money, Felix?""I did. Thank you, Ms. Swan," I answered lightly.I could hear her laughing on the other end of the line. "No need to thank me. I just want to make it clear that by accepting my money, you also belong to me now."Although I knew that she was just joking, I could feel the tips of my ears heating up. "Don't worry, Ms. Swan. I'll definitely show up at the office on time."Elise hummed in acknowledgement before asking curiously, "I contacted you so many times in the past, but you always rejected

Jillian's smile stiffened on her face. Confusion flickered in her eyes as she numbly watched Elise confidently ascend the stage. She only snapped back to her senses when thunderous applause erupted within the hall.Unconcerned with the consequences, Jillian rushed onto the stage. She looked like she had lost her mind as she tried to yank Elise off the stage in front of all the guests."Elise, Project Charlie belongs to Dunn Group. What gives you the right to be on stage? Get off the stage now!"Fortunately, Elise had been well-prepared. With one wave of her hand, the security guards rushed forward and grabbed Jillian, holding her in place.Elise calmly straightened her wrinkled clothes as she stared into Jillian's furious eyes. "I knew that you weren't very bright, Ms. Dunn, but I had no idea your eyes and ears weren't working properly as well. Can't you see my company's name on the screen? Didn't you hear the host call my name?"Jillian's eyes reddened as she became even more emo

Jillian said, "If the interns gain more experience and grow more proficient quickly, our company will also reap the benefits and be able to—"I interrupted her preposterous explanation. "So, you're telling me that you admire his talent for ordering food delivery? Or were you impressed by his ways of coaxing a woman?"Forget it. It's pointless to continue talking about this now. Why don't you use the time you have left to come up with a plan with that talented intern of yours for the future of Dunn Group? Oh, that's right. I'll send the divorce agreement to you shortly."It'll be ideal for us to have an amicable separation. Of course, if you want to escalate the case to court, I'll be more than happy to assist you through to the very end. But I do wonder if the court will take your side once they see the evidence I have of your infidelity."I knew Jillian wouldn't be willing to hand Dunn Group over to me. That afternoon, she sent the divorce agreement back to me with her signature o

Behind me, Jillian let out a heartbroken wail.She didn't give up despite what I told her that day and kept seeking me out.Growing tired of her constant harassment, I put in a request with Elise to be transferred out of the country, and she readily agreed.Only when I boarded the plane did I learn that the colleague accompanying me out of the country was none other than Elise herself.Seeing me frozen to the spot in a daze, she faked a stern voice and asked, "What are you looking at? Am I not allowed to abuse my authority as the boss of the company?"I chuckled and nodded. "Of course, you can. You're the boss, after all. Your word is law."Freed from Jillian's harassment, I dedicated myself to my work and secured several major projects for Starshower Group in a single month.Elise was also exceptionally generous toward me, rewarding me with handsome bonuses that kept increasing.Finally, I was able to afford the best cochlear implant surgery for Freya. Every hurdle I had to ov
