"Alright, it’s settled then! Finally, everything's clear now! Suzy, you're good to go back to work without any worries!" As someone simple, Wendy did not think there was any hidden agenda with what Sophia had posted.Naturally, she thought this issue was finally resolved, not realizing that Sophia's move was not actually an apology.Suzy didn't want Wendy to worry about her, so she just smiled and replied, "Yes.""Are you free this weekend? How about we have a meal together to celebrate? My treat!" Wendy offered eagerly."My mother is having some health issues again, I can't leave her side. Let's wait until I'm done with all this.”Wendy sighed on the other end. "Alright then, I'll wait for you! Let me know if you need any help. Don't be shy. I'm not really busy at work anyway, ever since you left, Mr. Shaw keeps making snide remarks at me, I've been thinking of quitting!""Don't... You're doing well at FortuneWave. Don't let me affect your decisions! Mr. Shaw is actually not a bad man
He aimed to give Suzy, a woman with a sensitive nature who frequently hid her true feelings, the utmost support possible.Suzy smiled as she looked at the man in front of her, who, despite his cold, dignified, and aloof appearance as the CEO of Park Group to others, spoke with such thoughtful and gentle words. The emotions stirring in her heart were beyond words!She felt that even if in the future it turned out her mother was right, that Liam was just toying with her, this moment alone was enough!She didn't want to ponder over anything else....Sophia's abrupt resignation had a temporary impact on the legal department at Park Group. Several contract reviews were delayed because no one felt comfortable approving them without Sophia, and her replacement was particularly cautious.If it weren't for the overload of work, her new replacement would have considered taking medical leave to avoid getting caught in the crossfire.Everyone within Park Group was aware of Sophia's exceptional re
Fortunately, Alec had always treated Suzy well; he hadn't offended this CEO's favorite person.He headed to the legal department to deliver Liam’s message, and the shock on everyone's faces was no less than Alec's initial reaction."Mr. Park is considering disbanding the entire legal department of Park Group?! Mr. Lincoln, are you sure you heard that right?"This decision was crucial!Every subsidiary of Park Group had its own legal department, and there had never been a precedent for hiring external law firms. Was he really about to break this rule just for Suzy?Alec cleared his throat and replied sternly, "Now you should understand Mr. Park's intentions. When you work at Park Group, just focus on your job at hand and do it well.""We understand! We'll make sure not to disappoint Mr. Park.""Good."After delivering the message, Alec turned to leave the legal department, only to find Sophia standing there! Unsure of how long she had been there or if she had overheard their conversatio
"You—""Miss Burns, I won't disturb you from retrieving your belongings. Mr. Park has some matters that require my attention."Top of FormAlec ignored Sophia's furious glare and walked straight into the elevator.Sophia clenched her fists tightly, her body shaking involuntarily with anger!Fine, now everyone was laughing at her! Even Alec was talking down to her! Just wait and see. There would come a day when Liam would personally welcome her back....In the hospital room, Melissa was lying there listening to music, quite contentedly.The CD was a special collection Jeffrey had found for her, which was no longer available in stores."Mrs. Chase, would you like me to massage your legs? I've been experiencing some shoulder and back pain lately due to the various issues at our school, so I visited a masseuse. I found it quite helpful and even learned a few techniques."Melissa had called Jeffrey over, but he hadn't informed Suzy.He didn't want her to worry unnecessarily!"You, a univ
Jeffrey experienced an inexplicable tightness in his chest, feeling oppressed despite being deemed highly successful by many....Upon entering the hospital room, Suzy noticed her mother's mood seemed unusually good.Typically, Melissa would have a stern expression, but today, there was a hint of a smile."Did something good happen?" Melissa's cheerful demeanor lifted Suzy's spirits as she placed the fruits she had bought on the way onto the bedside table."Can't I just be in a good mood for no reason?""Of course." Suzy began peeling the oranges, placing them onto a small plate.Melissa watched her daughter and couldn't resist asking, "Has Mr. Park's mother been bothering you?"Suzy paused for a moment, then shook her head. "No.""See, that’s the attitude of his family! They think their son could never be at a disadvantage, so they don’t even care if he were to fool around for a while!” "Mom!" Suzy frowned. "Could you please try not to be so narrow-minded?"Melissa chuckled as she a
Suzy vaguely remembered that in the haze, Liam was repeatedly brushing her hair, until she completely lost consciousness and fell asleep…Perhaps because her strength was drained, she slept very deeply.Before Liam left, he intentionally closed the curtains tightly, blocking out any trace of light, which led Suzy to sleep until noon before waking up.When Suzy woke up, she glanced at her phone and noticed a missed call from her mother and another one from Alec.What could Alec want from her?Suzy quickly sat up to clear her head, then returned the call."Mr. Lincoln, were you looking for me?""Yes, I was wondering when you'd return to work.”"You could've called a few more times; I overslept by accident... I'm sorry! Next time, if it's urgent, feel free to call me repeatedly." Suzy hurriedly apologized.Alec chuckled on the other end, saying, "Mr. Park already informed me that you were still sleeping and advised me not to disturb you. He mentioned that you'd reach out once you woke up.
Upon reaching Alec's office, Suzy knocked on the door.She heard a voice from within saying "come in," so she pushed the door open and entered."Mr. Lincoln, I'm here."Alec looked up from a stack of files and pointed to some documents on the desk. "You need to enter these into the computer. I'll send you the latest updates on the New Valley project, and you can handle the due diligence this afternoon.""Alright." Suzy picked up the documents to review them, and then promptly sent a file to Alec using her phone. "I had already inputted these before my suspension. I have them saved on my cloud because I didn't have access rights.""You inputted all these sections?!" Alec was surprised and immediately opened the file to check, "You really weren't idle during your break!"To put it into perspective, this workload amounted to nearly half a month's worth of tasks! Despite being suspended from Park Group for a brief period, Suzy still managed to accomplish so much!Suzy smiled. "I always kne
Naturally, outsiders felt envy. They believed Suzy was incredibly lucky to have earned Liam's favor, but deep down, it weighed heavily on her own heart. She didn't know what she could possibly offer Liam in return!Suzy felt that for a relationship to last, there should at least be some balance! Balancing their statuses was incredibly difficult, but she wanted to balance their contributions....After a day's work, as she was leaving in the evening, Liam specifically messaged her to wait for him so they could go home together after his meeting.Suzy used this time to tidy up her desk.Since she was usually too busy to organize and file documents properly, she just made sure she knew where everything was kept.After finishing, she checked her phone and still saw no message from Liam.The meeting was probably more complicated than expected.Stretching her back, Suzy decided to take a walk outside, but just as she left the office, she encountered the last person she wanted to see—Sophia
