Watch Me Walk Away With Everything のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Heather only had to drink with Colton a few times to effortlessly steal my credit. Now, it seemed clear that Colton had been planning to get rid of me for a while.Years of marriage meant nothing compared to his first love. How ironic. Maybe it was time to leave.At that thought, a bitterness welled up in my chest, but my face remained expressionless as I said, "Fine."A flash of mockery crossed Heather's eyes, but she still put on a show. "Liana, I'm just a newbie. This project involves billions of dollars. How could I possibly be qualified to handle it?”"I only offered because Colton mentioned you've been drinking with clients every day and don't have time. I just wanted to help lighten your load."Colton smiled and patted Heather's arm. "Heather, you're an elite from Yalen University. If you can't handle it, nobody in this company can."I laughed out loud.The Yalen program Colton kept bragging about was actually a community college that shared a campus with the university.

Heather's gaze fell on the bottles in my arms. She raised her voice. "Such expensive whiskey. Liana must have realized her mistake and came to apologize and beg for your forgiveness."Hearing this, Colton's expression softened slightly.He snorted coldly. "Smart move, but don't think I'll forgive you that easily!"He walked up to me and said mockingly, "However, if you behave, I can give you a chance.”"When the banquet starts, you'll perform something for everyone. Then you'll respectfully toast Heather three times. Do that, and I'll give you a chance to come back to the company.”"Of course, after you finish toasting, you'll only be allowed to watch us eat. After all, there was never a seat for you at this banquet! Heather, take the bottles."With that, Colton snorted coldly. Without even looking at me, he walked into the hotel on his own.Heather stepped forward on command to take them. I moved aside. "This whiskey isn't for you."Colton stopped in his tracks. He turned around sharp

Colton angrily turned to me and said through gritted teeth, "Liana, you planned this all along, didn't you! After you quit, you sabotaged everything behind the scenes. You're using your old connections to destroy the company's project with the design institute!”"After that. you packed your bags and came to the hotel to watch us fail, right?"Before I could explain, my former director, Victoria Leigh, angrily cut in. "This is ridiculous! I personally invited her to dinner. What could she have arranged?”"Besides, the only reason our design institute agreed to work with a small company like Apex Design in the first place was because of Liana! Now that she's gone, why would we continue this partnership?”"Come to think of it, I should thank you for letting our institute's former star return to us."By the end, a cold smile appeared on Ms. Leigh's face. My heart felt a tinge of bitterness.Back then, Ms. Leigh valued me the most. She even promised that if I stayed at the design inst

"Colton, it’s over between us!"My love for him had ended long ago. It ended with each heartbreak, one after another. It ended the day I discovered evidence of their affair in his car.Colton grabbed me, refusing to let me go.I had no choice but to take a deep breath and push him to the ground. "Ms. Leigh, let's eat somewhere else. After all, there are flies here bothering us."Ms. Leigh nodded. She knew I did not want to keep this farce going and turned to leave.Outside the hotel, Quinn personally drove up in a business sedan. Wearing white gloves, she opened the car door for me and said cockily, "Welcome back, my queen!"I laughed and playfully punched her arm. I helped Ms. Leigh into the car first, then climbed in after her.Colton chased after us, his face covered in tears. "Liana, are you really this heartless?"I did not respond. After all, I had never been the heartless one.I quietly said to Quinn, "Drive."Quinn, who had been hoping I would say something cutting, r

Landon burst out laughing, his cheeks flushing red. "No, it's not like that. It was just the wind. It's not what you're thinking, Liana."As he spoke, he casually picked up the boxers, dusted them off, and placed them on the windowsill."But Liana, what you just said about taking responsibility, does that count? I don't have a girlfriend yet, you know."At those words, I blushed furiously and rushed out of the room."Liana, why are you in such a hurry? What's wrong?"Ms. Leigh was eating her oatmeal, looking puzzled. I shook my head calmly and sat down to eat.After breakfast, Ms. Leigh arranged for Landon to drive us to the design institute.I offered to drive, but she stopped me. "Liana, you drank so much last night, so it's better if you don't drive right now."I had no choice but to agree.Soon, we arrived at the entrance to the design institute. I spotted Colton being blocked by security, making a scene like a shrew.The security guard was patiently trying to reason with
