"Noel, what you should be doing now is to cooperate with the police and admit your mistakes. For all you know, that might lighten your sentence." Cordy gave Noel her sincerest suggestion.Over the years, this was the greatest show of compassion she extended to someone related to her by blood."But what can I do after I get released? I'll be looked down upon by others in disdain, called names, and spat on like a rat on the streets!" Tears filled Noel's eyes at the prospect she had spoken of.Sorrow rose from within her.Cordy, on the other hand, remained unmoved."Cordy, do you know what the greatest wish in my entire life is?""I don't want to know.""My greatest wish is to defeat you and make everyone in the Sachs family bow down to me.""At the very least, you achieved that for a short while.""No, I didn't. I have never defeated you, never! Yes, I have been jealous of you ever since we were young. From the first time I saw you, I knew you were more beautiful than I am. You

Three years later, North City was as prosperous and bustling as it had always been.In Sachs Enterprises' board meeting, Cordy was seated right at the center.Simon sat next to her, his face dark as thunder.Who could imagine that after Noel was sentenced to jail three years ago, she would unconditionally transfer all her shares of Sachs Enterprises to Cordy?Cordy did not help Noel fight the lawsuit, and Noel was not served the death sentence. Instead, she was sentenced to seven years of jail time.Of course, Cordy did not reject Noel's offer.At the very least, it was better than letting Simon get his hands on the shares.When Simon found out that the company's shares were all transferred to Cordy, he almost had a heart attack and died on the spot.He had thought that Noel might keep the shares to herself. He never imagined that she would give it all to Cordy.Wasn't Cordy the person she hated the most in this whole world?!It was then that he realized how much that pair of

Technically speaking, after Simon lost his position as the chairman, there was no other position left in Sachs Enterprises for him. But he pulled together other directors and confronted Cordy, forcing her to give him the position of general manager in Sachs Enterprises on the basis that he had been managing the company all along, while Cordy seldom came to the office and it would not be ideal to hire a general manager externally.Cordy did not reject his suggestion, for there was no need for her to. As Simon had a significant portion of the company's shares, he would certainly put in his best foot forward in managing Sachs Enterprises.Of course, that was what she had thought. Unfortunately, Simon was truly incapable."Yes?" Simon said in response.He had never shown Cordy much respect, be in small or big meetings.He continued to remain stuck up and prideful."Compared to last month, your KPI targets have dropped by 3%. How did you arrive at 3%?" Cordy asked."Don't you know th

"Of course, to motivate the leaders to be more proactive, what else?" Simon said in a self-justified manner. After all, everyone seated at the table were at the management level and they would all side with him on this matter. He was clearly doing this to please the management so that they would remain loyal to him. "Since everyone seated here is at the management level, I'll be frank. Everyone knows the 20/80 rule, in which 20% of the people own 80% of the wealth in this world! I was merely adhering to this principle."Cordy chuckled.He made it sound so self-righteous.She knew clearly that Simon was simply trying to weaken her power through the management. Even if all of Sachs Enterprises' shares ended up in her hands, he had the company's management in his hands. To be blunt, he still had the final say in Sachs Enterprises.How naive."Chairman Sachs, please don't find anything wrong with this. Everyone who can climb to such a position is capable in their own right; they eithe

Those directors who were going against Cordy were the ones who were not contributing much to the company.Their faces were dark with displeasure as well."Stop keeping us in suspense. What exactly are you proposing?" the director said coldly."Very simple. The additional 5 to 10% salary is based on performance. In other words, as long as the director achieves their targets, I'll reward him or her with an up to 10% increase in their salary. If the targets are not met, they will be penalized with a 5 to 10% cut in their salaries," Cordy said clearly.Naturally, everyone was reluctant to accept her suggestion.However, Cordy did not give them a chance to speak up. "I said that I am in full agreement with what President Sachs said earlier, but verbal recognition isn't that much meaningful. True recognition should be accompanied by tangible benefits, and the best way I can think of to highlight the gap between the leadership board and our employees is a performance commission.""Chair

Cordy left Sachs Enterprises' office building in her car and drove toward Starstream Group's office building.Randy methodically reported to her the next appointment in her schedule. "Boss, there's a director's meeting at Starstream Group in half an hour which is scheduled to end at 11.30 AM. There's an interview by a finance magazine at 1.30 PM. The editor-in-chief will conduct the interview right in your office and I've already requested for them to keep the interview within 40 minutes."At 3.08 PM, high-end brand SHE of Galaxy Center, Lux City's international mall, requests your attendance at their ribbon-cutting ceremony for their launch. The event will be live-streamed, and the make-up artist will arrive at your office half an hour before the event. There's a business dinner at 6 PM for which I've already arranged for someone from the public relations department to attend with you."Cordy looked outside the window as she listened on."Tomorrow, I've pushed away all work appoin

Cordy drank the honey water while re-reading Dicky's note, his show of love and concern for her.These three years, Dicky was like a ball of warmth that never failed to love and take care of her.He was clearly still a child, yet he was trying to grow up overnight into a man.Cordy sipped on the cup of honey water and brought the warm milk upstairs. She hesitated for a moment at the stairwell before finally deciding to go into Dicky's room.Dicky was already asleep.He was sleeping very soundly.After all, his days at school were long and tiring.She leaned over and kissed him on the forehead.If she did not have Dicky, she was not sure if it was possible for her to survive over the past three years.She was not sure if she could hang on and live well for the next three, or even thirty, years.For some reason, as time went on, her longing for John became deeper and deeper with time.It had become so deep that she sometimes felt possessed.Wasn't it said that time heals all

Cordy told Dicky, "I'll confirm the time with Nancy once I come home.""Okay, Mommy. I'm done eating—I'm going to school now.""I'll drive you," Cordy said, putting down her knife and fork.Dicky frowned. "Shouldn't you get some rest? You drank a lot last night.""I don't feel anything since I've had honey and warm milk," Cordy smiled. "All thanks to my baby."Dicky blushed a little—it had been years, but there was no changing that shyness.How was he going to date girls when he got older?Cordy sent him to school, and felt a little emotional as she watched Dicky enter the school with his towering frame. She thought it had been a while since she saw her shrink, and had her chauffeur take her to the private clinic."Cordy," Jim Brown, her personal shrink, greeted her warmly. "You've actually made time to visit."Cordy smiled, but said flatly, "My insomnia's been getting worse.""Come on in."Jim led Cordy into this office. It was a homely room, giving anyone a sense of co
