Seeing that Suzy seemed troubled by this issue, Peter patted her shoulder. "Don't overthink it! I believe the local officials are probably worried about the development project being affected, so they stepped in. After all, this resort project is highly beneficial for Windsting City's development. They wouldn't want the project to change because the person in charge was assaulted by residents."Suzy nodded, feeling a bit more relieved. "You might be right. You and Mr. Paynes should avoid putting pressure on this. The residents are likely just trying to get more money, which is understandable. The key is to avoid escalating the conflict and affecting the project.""You! Always thinking about the project, no wonder you've climbed the ladder so quickly! Honestly, I've been in the workplace for many years and have seen plenty of women using various means to get ahead. You're the only one who has relied purely on your own ability."Others might not know, but Peter was well aware!With Rya
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 274: Look Like Liam
Hearing this, Suzy could hear a sharp intake of breath from inside the stall.It was clear they hadn't expected that their supervisor would still be working at this hour and would catch them gossiping about her...After about ten seconds of awkward silence, the stall door slowly opened.Suzy found herself facing two familiar faces – the project accountants sent by the company."Tell me, who am I supposedly having an affair with? I'd really like to know.""Miss Chase, we just heard it from others..."Suzy scoffed, crossing her arms and staring at them. "Who did you hear it from? Bring that person here; I want to hold them accountable for spreading rumors."Silence.Both women instantly shut their mouths.Suzy didn't really want to make things difficult for them; she just wanted to put a stop to the rumors. As a woman working hard in her career, she couldn't afford to have such negative gossip attached to her name. Rumors like these tend to grow and must be nipped in the bud."You were s
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 275: Introduce Two of You
"I have nothing to do with him!" Suzy blurted it out.The two women in front of her flinched, thinking they had said something wrong again.Suzy stood still for a few seconds to calm down, then waved her hand. "Go. In the future, don't speak such things lightly. This is a society ruled by law. If it goes to court, you'll lose more than just compensation; you'll also jeopardize your future in the workplace.""We understand! We're really sorry."She couldn't say anything more, just gestured for them to leave.Hearing those words had drained all the strength from Suzy, and her fingertips trembled uncontrollably.Even after all these years, she still couldn't completely remove him from her world?It seemed that encountering someone too remarkable in life made them unforgettable.Back at the hotel, Wendy had just put Angela to sleep.Seeing Suzy looking so lost, she thought those people had caused her trouble again."Tell me what's going on! Did they bully you again?""No." Suzy forced a sm
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 276: Clive Came to Wingsting City
Suzy thought for a moment and then smiled. "Let's bring Mr. Watts along. He's done the most work on this project. If you only take me to meet your connections, he'll get jealous."Ryan chuckled helplessly. "Alright, whatever you say! But I'm really curious how your husband managed to win you over!"She was smart and tactful, always maintaining a certain distance with people. Her way of handling relationships made it hard to get close to her, yet she always left an impression of a deep, albeit non-intimate, connection.What does it take to get into the heart of a woman like her?Suzy didn't answer his question because that story was too long and too far in the past....Windsting City Airport.Ryan went straight to the airport to pick someone up after leaving the construction site.He hadn't seen his friend in a long time and was looking forward to it.As the time arrived, he saw a man walking out, alone and without any luggage."Over here!" Ryan waved and strode forward, pulling him in
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 277: She’s the Girl I Like
Clive stood there as if struck by lightning, frozen in place for a long moment before he moved his fingers to rub his eyes hard.Was he seeing things?She was actually in Windsting City!But on second thought, it made sense why Liam had changed his mind so much after staying in Windsting City for a few days."What are you standing there for? Go on up!" Ryan, who hadn't seen Suzy yet, got out of the car and saw Clive standing there in a daze."I see someone I know." Clive pointed toward Suzy not far away.Ryan followed his finger and smiled, "You know her?""Yeah, she is—""She's the girl I like."Clive was speechless."Isn't she beautiful?" Ryan continued talking to himself, not noticing that the man beside him was almost petrified! "Of course, it's not just her looks I admire. It's her dedication to her work that captivates me! What do you think?"Clive's mouth twitched, his voice dry and tight. "Not much.""Not much?!" Ryan immediately questioned his taste and then turned to see Cliv
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 278: Not Going Back to Liam
Before Ryan could say anything, Suzy outright refused."I have nothing to say to you.""Do you want them to hear your past story?" Clive's words made Suzy freeze for a moment.He had guessed that Suzy hadn't told anyone about her past with Liam. While he didn't know why, he knew she had her reasons for keeping it a secret, and he figured it was enough to make her listen."What are you two talking about?" Ryan looked puzzled, glancing between Suzy and Clive.Clive smiled and started to speak, "You might not know, but Miss Chase here used to—""Enough!" Suzy interrupted sharply, glaring at Clive. "Fine, I'll listen to what you have to say. Let's talk over there."Clive, having achieved his goal, gave a thumbs up. "Ryan, go ahead and wait for us. Don't worry, I'll bring her back for lunch."Ryan was speechless.Ryan looked at Suzy, and seeing she didn't object, he nodded reluctantly. "Alright, I'll wait for you both."Once Ryan had turned and disappeared into the restaurant, Suzy spoke co
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 279: He Didn’t Marry Sophia
"Ha!" Clive chuckled lightly, "You're as ruthless as I thought. No wonder Liam liked you."Suzy frowned. "What exactly are you trying to say or do?"Clive shrugged. "I'm just surprised to see you after all these years. Just wanted to chat, no particular agenda. You don't have to be so defensive. I'm different from them.""I have nothing to chat about with you," Suzy replied, ready to leave.Clive quickly stepped in front of her. "I thought you'd want to ask me about Liam, like... who he's marrying."He couldn't believe Suzy wasn't curious at all!"Do I need to know?"Who else would Liam marry but Sophia? The Park family wouldn't agree to anyone else.Seeing her indifferent expression, Clive felt irritated and pulled out his phone, dialing Liam's number.Liam usually didn't answer Clive's calls quickly, assuming they were rarely urgent. But this time, after just two rings, Liam's voice came through.Suzy's fingers froze, feeling like a thorn had pierced her heart."Hello? What's up?"Cl
A Taste of Temptation: The Chaste CEO's Midnight Knock Chapter 280: Loving Her Is My Choice
Suzy's heart felt as if it were being squeezed tightly, her mind going blank.Liam didn't marry Sophia?"How could you marry someone else, Suzy? You’re heartless," Clive said mockingly. "A few years ago, you had Liam wrapped around your finger, and now you have Ryan completely enchanted. I have to admit, that's quite a talent.""Have you said enough?" Suzy interrupted coldly. She didn't want to hear Liam's name anymore; it made her heart tremble each time. "I don't know why you've said all this to me today, but I've made it clear: Liam and I will never have a relationship again! If I wanted to contact him, I have many ways to do it, and none of you could stop me. “So rest assured, I genuinely don't want any more involvement with him. As for the Park family and Sophia, if they had done nothing wrong to me, they had nothing to fear from someone as insignificant as me. So don't waste your time with sarcasm; it doesn't affect me. I don't care.""You—"Clive wasn't sure what he wanted to
