A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 110: Liam’s Decision
"I can't, but Mr. Palmer can?" Liam furrowed his thick brows, his dark eyes unwilling to miss any subtle change in her emotions.After a few seconds of contemplation, she didn't respond directly, but instead countered, "This time, my mother insisted I bring my boyfriend to meet her, or else she wouldn't proceed with the surgery. "I brought Jeffrey along, thinking it would be enough. But then, out of the blue, my mother insisted that Jeffrey's parents join us in the hospital room, and they had to come right away! If I had brought you instead, could your parents have come?"Liam was speechless because clearly, the answer was no.Both Liam and Suzy were well aware of it.After all, his parents had a noble status."So, do you understand?" Suzy cautiously asked.However, Liam remained silent.He tightened his lips, his expression growing tense as he quickly dressed without bothering with the medicine, then promptly left the room!Suzy watched his retreating figure, sighing softly in the en
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 111: Sophia Will Accompany Mrs. Park
Suzy hadn't replied yet when Wendy quickly sent another message."I sense something's wrong with you, Suzy. Aren't I your closest friend?""Of course you are."“Then tell me, who's this guy you've been troubled by? Don't play innocent; your recent actions make it pretty clear you've got a crush.”A crush? She had a crush on Liam?However, Suzy's initial reaction was, would she dare to have a crush on him?She felt like whenever she looked at Liam, it was akin to a devotee's reverence towards a deity; how could she dare to entertain romantic thoughts?"I'm just interested in how guys act in relationships, don't take it so personally."Wendy persisted, "I knew you wouldn't admit it. Anyway, let me remind you, don’t get too involved with men, and don't lose yourself because they show you temporary tenderness and care! “You might think the guy is being nice to you, but he might treat another girl better! Those men who are overly nice to you from the start usually have ulterior motives, it
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 112: Let Her Reach Out to Him
His expression turned cold as he replied, "It's inconvenient for you to take care of my mom. I'll send someone over to replace you. Thank you for your hard work.""You should know Mrs. Park’s depression is severe. I just want her to be happy." Sophia's words brought back memories for Liam of the year his mother tried to commit suicide in the bathroom, blood splattered everywhere, a vivid and shocking scene...It all started because he refused to follow his family's wishes and get engaged to Sophia.As his mother's severe depression worsened, her grip on everything tightened with each passing day. Even minor setbacks would prompt thoughts of suicide.Last time, she had taken half a bottle of sleeping pills just because the maid who had been taking care of her wanted to resign.The doctor said she was traumatized from being kidnapped and her psyche was fragile. The only treatment was to provide a peaceful environment and comply with her wishes as much as possible.Liam's hand hovered ov
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 113: Leftover
Liam left first because he needed to attend a video conference with the executives after dinner.Once they were gone, Suzy returned to her room to tackle the documents.She had decided not to dwell on things she couldn't understand. She shouldn’t be wasting time! Since Liam was now willing to promote her, and this could be her only chance to climb the ladder quickly in her life, she resolved to work hard and not disappoint his expectations.With her head down, several more hours passed.At one in the morning, as Suzy stretched her numb wrists, there came a sudden knock on the door!Who could it be at this late hour?She approached cautiously and glanced through the peephole.... It was Liam.Suzy hesitated for a few seconds before opening the door, and she could already smell the alcohol on him.Before she could say anything, Liam had already stepped into the bathroom, clearly unable to tolerate the smell of alcohol on himself. He couldn’t avoid drinking at social events.Suzy underst
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 114: Far East Core Technology Diagrams
The core technology diagrams for the Far East project...Suzy suddenly remembered that Sophia had asked her for them when she was on a business trip in West City. However, Sophia was so loyal to Park Group, she wouldn't leak confidential information to a partner company, right?"You better think hard. Besides you and me, no one else has access to the project. If this blows up, we're both finished!"As a partner company, leaking core technology data was a huge taboo in the investment industry! If they found out that they did indeed leak the data, no one in the industry would risk collaborating with this company again. Despite FortuneWave being a subsidiary of Park Group, their reputation would be tarnished by such a scandal. Additionally, Suzy's direct involvement could lead to her being blacklisted by the entire industry."I... I sent the technology diagrams to Miss Burns, the Park Group's general counsel. She said she needed them.""Who? Miss Burns?""Yes, the general counsel of P
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 115: You Want to Set Me Up
At that moment, Suzy had a sudden realization. This was all a setup; Sophia wanted to force her out of Park Group, maybe even out of the entire investment banking industry!Furrowing her brows, Suzy stated firmly, "I've made it clear I have no intention of competing with you."Suzy was well aware of her position. However, even so, Sophia clearly had no intention of letting her off the hook."I don't understand what you're talking about," Sophia's voice remained pleasant, almost patient. "If there's nothing else, I have work to attend to.""You understand perfectly well! You're targeting me because of Mr. Park, aren't you? You're trying to set me up!" Suzy didn't want to play along with her, so she decided to confront her directly."Because of Mr. Park? Miss Chase, I suggest you think carefully before speaking," Sophia said, her tone firm, before hanging up.Suzy considered calling back, but as her fingertip hovered over the screen, she refrained. Sophia had declared war on her. Looki
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 116: Sophia Was Indeed Smart
“It was Miss Burns who asked me for it, and she seemed to need it urgently, so I didn't think much about it.""Even if it was Mr. Park asking, you still have to follow the proper procedure!" Alec urged himself to remain calm as he pondered, but this situation seemed unsolvable! Leaking the core diagram required an explanation to Far East Corporation. "Moreover, you haven't known Miss Burns for long. If you were to tell others that she set you up, you must provide a reason for it."Even if Alec were to believe her, the public would want to see evidence, not just her testimony alone.Suzy opened her mouth but couldn't find the words to say anything.She couldn't tell anyone that Sophia's animosity towards her stemmed from her current relationship with Liam."Speak up! It's come to this point, there's no point in hiding anymore! If I'm supposed to help you come up with ideas, you have to tell me everything! Is there any conflict between you and Miss Burns?" "I... don't know," Suzy rep
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 117: Abbreviation for the Email
"The money for my mother's surgery definitely didn't come from this! You can ask someone in the company to investigate!" "You don't have to yell at me like I’m in the wrong here. The company will definitely send someone to investigate. When that happens, you can’t get away with your lies!" Desmond cursed loudly, "I’m really unlucky to have you on my team!”Suzy could even imagine the expression on Desmond's face at this moment as if he wanted to tear her apart.There was a busy tone on the other end, indicating that he might have already smashed his phone.Suzy dug her nails into the flesh of her palm, forcing herself to calm down! The more challenging the situation, the less one could afford to panic.Moreover, she was not the one who leaked the information.She carefully considered that if she wanted to prove her innocence in this matter, she would first have to find the records of Sophia asking her for the core drawings! In that case, Sophia would also be part of the investigation
