Chapter 1

After parting with Valerie Palmer on a bad note, I tossed the divorce papers to her regular secretary, Melissa Ryans, instead.Valerie never signed them nor contacted me afterward, but that was just typical of her. After all, I was always the one caving and going back to her like her most loyal lapdog, begging to get back together with her.She was sure and convinced that I loved her enough to always go back to her, no matter what she did to me.However, she didn't know that I had completely given up on her this time. I was done with her and with our relationship.…The company successfully went public a month later. It was the culmination of both my and Velerie's hard work, and I had to be there to attend the launch no matter what.At the launch event, Valerie moved through the crowd with Thomas Freeman, clinking glasses and exchanging toasts with the rest of the people as if they were the married couple instead.Thomas smiled faintly at her, occasionally brushing a strand of h

The red wine soaked my hair and splashed onto the front of my pristine shirt. The cold liquid immediately woke me up from my senses.Then, Valerie went up to the podium and began her speech."In view of Mr. Alexander Hall's recent harassment toward me, I have decided to remove him from his senior management position and transfer him to an administrative position instead to reflect on his actions."In the meantime, Mr. Thomas Freeman will be the one temporarily replacing him in his original position."The entire room was in uproar. For a moment, countless pitying, sympathetic, and even gloating gazes fell upon me.Thomas grinned smugly at me, his dimples deepening and making it feel as though he'd just bitten me on the neck with his venomous fangs.Valerie left the hall with Thomas, and the people around me began gossiping amongst each other."See what happens when you're a pig thinking you can fly? Does Alex not have enough sense to realize that he's just a nobody who will never

Valerie had personally recruited Thomas during the campus recruitment drive. She didn't choose any of the outstanding candidates, but instead picked Thomas, who was utterly useless except for his looks. Even though I tried my best to dissuade her, saying that he would only harm the company, she stubbornly kept him.Valerie made him her secretary, but he simply didn't have the abilities required for the position.He offended a client as soon as he joined the company, and Valerie only used the excuse that he was still young and needed experience to make me apologize on his behalf.He went from being her secretary to her personal secretary, and gradually I spent less and less time with her while they spent more and more time together.It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were inseparable. At first, I only expressed my dissatisfaction slightly, but Valerie, with a straight face, told me that it was just work. She made it seem as if I were judging her by my own standards.I fou

After packing my things, I returned to the company with my prepared resignation letter.When I stepped into the company, I noticed everyone giving me strange looks, and I felt a vague sense of unease.Pushing open the office door, I was greeted by a scene of utter chaos. All my documents and personal belongings lay next to the trash can. Thomas sat in my seat, fiddling with a crystal ball.My eyes reddened as I rushed forward and snatched the crystal ball from him."Thomas Freeman! Who permitted you to touch my things?" This was something Valerie had made for me last year for my birthday.Thomas stood up unhurriedly. "Mr. Hall—no, Alex. You're not the boss anymore, but you're still my senior at work, I guess." I looked at the mess on the floor, my patience nearing its limit."The appointment letter hasn't come through yet! Who gave you permission to make such a mess of my office? Get out!"Thomas curled his lip in disdain. "Val expedited my appointment letter overnight, Alex

Valerie's face turned incredibly pale. She asked again in disbelief, "What did you say? Hall Group is going to acquire us?"Cyril hurriedly opened the document folder and handed them to her. "Ms. Palmer, the acquisition documents have been finalized. Hall Group wants us to complete the handover within a week."Valerie was about to ask for my opinion when she remembered my resignation letter and reluctantly said to Thomas, "Tommy, send Alex a message and tell him to come back to the company immediately."Thomas' expression changed slightly, but he did as he was told. However, he realized that the messages kept failing to be sent. It was only a matter of time before he realized that I had blocked his number."Ms. Palmer, Alex already blocked my number, and I can't get through to him on the phone either."Valerie's expression froze. She sent me a message from her phone, but she quickly realized I'd blocked her as well."He actually dared to block me? Who gave him the guts?"Thomas

Chapter 6

Upon arriving at the Hall Group building, Valerie composed herself and reminded Cyril to be careful with his words when going in.Jay came out shortly to show them in."The president will see you now."Valerie went into the office pale-faced. She said, "Mr. Hall, I would like to discuss with you about the acquisition. Could you please reconsider it?"Dad looked at her sternly and said, "At this point, I guess there's no need for me to hide anything anymore. I am Alexander Hall's father, Philip Hall."Valerie froze on the spot. Cyril also stared blankly at Dad in shock before looking at her next, unable to get a single word out.Finally, Valerie opened her mouth hesitantly and said, "Y-You're Alex's dad? M-My… But why haven't I heard him talk about you before?""He refused to let anyone tell you because he knew that you didn't come from a well-to-do family, and he didn't want you to feel pressured or feel inferior to him. That's why he never brought it up with you."He actually

"It's not what you think, Val! You have to believe me! I'm the one who loves you the most!" Thomas argued.Valerie laughed angrily. "Love me? You love me, so you made me break up with Alex? You love me, so you forced me into handing over my company to someone else?"Thomas, let me tell you that just because I didn't say anything, it doesn't mean that I didn't know what you've done! I'm not fucking blind, and Alex isn't blind either!"All of the times I waited for her to no avail, the words I never said to her, and the countless times I suppressed my grievances now turned against her, piercing into her heart like sharp knives.Thomas still tried to fight back ."What are you trying to say, Val? I don't understand."Valerie helplessly held a hand to her face and said in a muffled voice, "You're fired, Thomas Freeman. You'd better watch your back."Thomas' pretense was shattered immediately after hearing the sudden news. His face turned ugly in an instant as he barked, "Did you reall

Chapter 8

Valerie refused to give up on me.She contacted almost everyone around me, but no one dared to tell her about my whereabouts. She even used our shared email account to send me countless emails every day. They started out as apologies and eventually turned into begging and pleading.I never replied to a single one of her emails. Still, she refused to give up and waited for me every day outside the building, hoping to catch a glimpse of me.While exiting the building with Marina today, Valerie glared enviously at her by my side as she rushed out to grab me by my arm."Alex! I've finally found you!"I didn't say a word and shook her arm off.Valerie didn't care and continued, "It's all my fault, Alex. I'm sorry that I let you down. Won't you please forgive me?"I've already fired Thomas from the company. He won't be interfering with our lives anymore!"I suddenly laughed out loud and said, "Even if you've gotten rid of Thomas, there will still be other Toms, Dicks, and Harries a

Chapter 9

Valerie's behavior soon began to escalate, her actions bordering on desperation. Aside from bombarding me with relentless text messages and emails, she also continued waiting for me downstairs at the company building. She even got someone to stalk me.I couldn't put up with her anymore and told my subordinates to call the police. When the police arrived at the company, she was in the midst of arguing with the security guards."Let me in! Do you not understand what I'm saying? I'm here to discuss business!"The security refused to relent. "Ms. Palmer, everyone in the company knows who you are, and Mr. Hall Junior specifically said that you were not allowed into the building at all! Otherwise, he would get us all fired!""That's impossible! I don't believe you! Alex would never do such a thing to me! Let me in! Let me in!"The security guards looked at the approaching police officers as if they were their saviors. "Officer! This is the person! She keeps making a huge fuss at the

Chapter 10

Cyril ignored Valerie's rapidly paling face and said, "Mr. Hall had been merciful and decided not to blacklist you from the industry out of consideration. But judging from your condition now, I believe that no other company would dare to hire you either."Valerie's face was deathly pale as she screeched, "I don't believe you. I don't believe that Alex would do such a thing to me! I don't believe it! You're all lying to me!"Get out of my chair right now! This place belongs to me! Just wait till I get in touch with Alex. He'll fire the lot of you at once!"Cyril interrupted her and said, "How do you think Thomas knew that you were the one who did all those things to him? Mr. Hall Junior doesn't even want to see you ever again!"Just look at your condition now! Forget about Mr. Hall Junior—no man would ever spare you a second glance either! I'd already warned you several times before this, but you refused to shape up, so you can't really blame it on anybody now, can you?"Cyril didn
