Lahat ng Kabanata ng Luxury on the Company Dime: A Girlfriend's Bill and a Boss' Wrath: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

"Let me break it down for everyone. The clothes Dianne wore in these photos are from Burberry. The retail price for these is over 30 thousand dollars. "This bag over here is from Louis Vuitton. You won't be able to get that without at least 100 thousand dollars. Coupled with her shoes, sunglasses, and hair accessories, everything on her would add up to roughly 300 thousand dollars," Lizzie wrote in the company group chat.Then, she sent another photo. "I'm sure everyone knows what brand this car is. Need I say more? Does everyone really think a finance officer would be this wealthy?" she questioned.The group chat that'd been quiet just moments ago instantly blew up. With Julius' earlier remarks backing Lizzie up, several of them began fawning all over her.In fact, some of them even started to make up rumors about me out of thin air."I think I saw her getting into someone's car last week. He looked pretty old…" one of them said."I always knew she was bad news. We'd still be i

The staff at the entrance seemed a little taken aback. Everyone's gaze carried an unmistakable trace of contempt when they looked at me."I'm sorry, miss, that won't be possible," the staff replied.Lizzie took his words to her advantage. She shook her head at me with a sneer. "You heard what he said. You're not allowed to go in. After all, the staff can't guarantee your character when you have a habit of cheating!"As if right on cue, everyone instantly burst out laughing.I smiled nonchalantly. "It's fine. I can wait for you outside."However, my calm reaction only made Lizzie angrier. She rolled her eyes at me and snapped, "There's no need for that. You're done here, now just leave.""Alright." With that, I left without sparing her another glance.I sent the video I'd just organized to Lawrence when I went back to the garage to get my car. "Compile this into a document and send it to me."These were all concrete evidence of workplace bullying and defamation against me. Even

As soon as my words fell, Lizzie's legs gave out as she collapsed to her knees in terror.Her anxious gaze fixed on Julius, desperately hoping he would give the answer she yearned for.Unfortunately, the look on his face said it all."Didn't you say that you owned the company, Julius?" she questioned.Irritation flickered across his face. "Even so, that still doesn't give you the right to spend that much. That's almost ten million dollars we're talking about! Even I wouldn't dare to throw money around like that!"There was a hint of hesitation in his gaze when he turned to look at me again. His tone had softened when he spoke up. "No matter what, Lizzie's still my wife. I admit we were in the wrong, but given the ties between our families all these years, can't you let her off the hook just this once?" he pleaded."What relationship do our families even have? We're just acquaintances, that's all," I replied.To put it plainly, the Sanfords wouldn't have risen to where they wer

I widened my eyes in disbelief. After all, the news was nothing short of shocking to me.Julius, who'd refused to back down just moments earlier, suddenly froze in place. He blinked rapidly before letting out a cold scoff. "This isn't the time for jokes, Dad."William gave him a slap across the face without hesitation. "I'm your father! How could I ever joke about something like this?"Julius nearly lost his mind when he realized William had been telling the truth. He staggered to his feet and bolted out in a frenzy. Afraid that something might happen to Julius, William hurried after him. Unfortunately, it was already too late.Early the next morning, I received a call from the police. Although Lizzie had been arrested, she was currently receiving emergency treatment at the hospital.There was no doubt that the perpetrator was Julius, who had lost all reason in his rage the day before.After learning the truth the day before, Julius set out to find Lizzie while holding a knife
