The Overbearing President's Alluring Little Wife

“Congratulations, Annie. You’ve successfully completed your internship and are now officially a member of Jennings Group. Head to HR tomorrow to go through the procedures for the transition to a permanent position!” Annie Lane received the text from Amy, her immediate superior, just as she was about to get off work. The news made her leap with joy.Jennings Group was one of the top three companies in City A. The employee benefits they offered were unmatched in the city and countless people were banging their brains out trying to find a way in. The difficulty of transferring from an internship to a permanent position was arguably even higher than a postgraduate degree. In the past two months, Annie had worked her butt off like she was constantly on thin ice, and now she finally received the offer of a permanent position!She wanted to share the joyous news with her boyfriend, Mason Quinn, at once. However, his phone was turned off.“Today is the Qixi Festival,” she said to herself.

Curses swimming in her head, Annie stood where she was, unmoving. She grudgingly lifted her head to look at the man she had loved for over two years. It was this man who helped her see light during dark times, but it was also him who personally destroyed her today.She had gotten used to Sophie’s bullying ever since she was little, but what happened today was not something she could ignore!“Sophie, Mason is just unwanted second-hand junk! I came here today to break up with him. This is my new boyfriend. Understand? It’s me who doesn’t want you!”Annie saw the tall figure nearby out of the corner of her eye and pulled him by the arm without even seeing his face. After calmly making the declaration to the shameless couple, she turned to leave.She clutched firmly to the little bit of pride she had left. She could not lose it.Myles, who had been dragged in by Annie, played along without hesitation, slinging one arm across her shoulders. Feeling the woman’s body tense up, he felt mo

Facing her questioning stare, Myles calmly released the tongue-tied Annie. Seeing her small face redden, his interest was further aroused.Still, his gaze was as cool as usual, sharp as a knife as it swept over to the Head of the HR Department, scaring him so badly that he hastily picked up the file on the ground and retreated to the back to hide.He had thought Annie was just a university student who had just entered the working society and even checked her information. Aside from a single mom, she had no other background, but now he was doomed. She turned out to be Myles Jennings’ woman! If Myles knew of today’s matter, he could not hope to remain at Jennings Group any longer.“Mr…”“Give me the file.”The Head of the HR Department was cut short by a few words of his cold voice. Myles’s strongly imposing manner had shaken him so much that he did not dare to even move an inch as he obediently passed over the file in his hands.“Hehe, Annie performed the best out of this batch of

Having lost her job right after transitioning to a permanent position, although Annie had a mind to start looking for jobs at once, she did not have the mood to do so.Annie was preparing to go back home to rest for half a day before submitting her résumé to every company she could find. Now, she could only hope the blemish of being fired by Jennings Group would not affect her recruitment attempts.In the end, Annie did not manage to fulfill her desire for a peaceful rest at home. In the home where she should have felt at ease, she saw the person she wanted to see the least.“What did you come here for?”Annie felt the atmosphere was off the moment she entered the rented house. At the side, Sharon was wiping off tears. The man sitting on the edge of the bed was her biological father, James Lane.He was dressed in a high-end suit and sat stick-straight with an elegant pair of glasses perched on the bridge of his nose. His expression was eternally calm, whereas Sharon always acted l

Only after the sound of Sophie’s angry yelling traveled from the door did Annie squat on the ground, her expression devoid of life. Her two eyes stared soullessly at the ground while she bit her bottom lip until it was nearly torn to shreds.“Annie…”Seeing her daughter in her broken form, Sharon also had a bad feeling in her heart. She just found out about what her daughter had experienced in these few days. She had seen that child, Mason Quinn, before, but she had never thought that he would betray Annie for money.“Mom, don’t worry about me. I’m fine.”Annie clenched her fist as she stood up from the ground with a determined expression on her face. In her heart, she had already thought it through.In all the painful years, she had always sacrificed herself for the sake of the bigger picture and meekly accepted whatever adversity she encountered.However, all she received in turn was an increasing intensity of shame. She did not want to continue enduring it all.Since she coul
