Liliana pov "Old Madam Vauxhall!"I never expected Old Madam Vauxhall to say something like that.Millie was obviously terrified. She held her tightly in her arms, and she didn't even dare struggle.I rushed over and snatched her back.I explained anxiously, "Don't talk nonsense here. I moved out because Finnley was violent toward my family, and his mistress came to my home. Wasn't I simply making room for his lover? Why has it become my fault now?""You bullshit. You've done so many disgusting things. Finnley didn't throw you out of the house. He tried to talk to you about your marriage. But what did you do? Didn't you publicly flirt with other men several times? And now you want to blame Finnley?"The fierce old woman glared at me with complete confidence.At first, the onlookers had thought it was just a mother-in-law trying to take away her grandchild after the divorce.Now it seemed the situation was far more complicated.Besides, I hadn't lived here for very long, so the neighb

Liliana pov Terrence Edmin walked up to me with a grim expression and asked gently, "Are you okay?""I'm fine."The moment he spoke to me so gently, I suddenly felt wronged.I lowered my voice."Where have you been these past few days?""I had some family matters to deal with, so I didn't have time to say goodbye to you. I'm sorry."Terrence Edmin looked at how much weight I had lost.The things that had happened in the community over the past few days made him furious.He turned to the property manager and asked, "I heard you're trying to drive her away?""Mr. Edmin, Miss Carter's presence has affected the mood of the other homeowners. If she continues living here, it will cause even more dissatisfaction, so I..." the property manager quickly explained.Sure enough, this man was nothing more than a lapdog in front of a homeowner like Terrence Edmin."The mood of the other homeowners?"Terrence Edmin sneered coldly."You want her to move out because it'll affect their mood. But forci

Liliana pov There was so much hidden meaning behind his words.I frowned.Blushing, I quickly looked away and said, "You're really good at joking."Knowing that I wasn't ready to face those feelings yet, Terrence Edmin didn't rush me.Instead, he turned to Jonathan Qin and said, "Only the Carter Group can deliver a perfect result for your project.""Of course I know. After all, the Carter Group has always been the leading enterprise in the medical industry in the Imperial Capital. Although it has declined over the past few years after the death of Old President Carter, as long as Miss Carter is still leading the company, it will rise again."I felt a little embarrassed by his praise.I gently brushed the hair away from my forehead and smiled."There's still a huge difference between my father and me. After all, I'm a doctor, while my father was a professional businessman. I still have a lot to learn.""Miss Carter, you're too modest. I've followed the Carter Group's situation over th

Liliana pov I went to clean the restroom.After washing my hands and coming out, I ran into the man again."Is the restroom clean now? Go tidy up the coffee room. You'd better mop the floor too."The man was on his way to the restroom, yet he still found time to give me more orders as he walked past me."Sir, I..."I couldn't hold it in anymore.Even if I were an intern, I shouldn't be exploited like this.Even if the cleaning lady on this floor wasn't here, couldn't he simply call someone from another floor to cover for her?Why make a new "intern" do it?"What? You don't want to mop the floor?"He frowned at me and spoke reproachfully."It's not that I don't want to. I just want to know whether I have anything else to do."I narrowed my eyes and smiled at him."What important work could an intern possibly have?"After saying that, he walked into the restroom.I felt that I still couldn't figure out his temperament at this point, so I headed to the coffee room.While I was mopping t
