The truth was that the Park Group had enough influence in the business world to easily shut down a company like Ryan's."Liam isn't the type to be a sore loser, is he?""...He can't afford to lose Suzy."...After making her fourth call to Clive without an answer, Sophia had to accept that she had lost an important ally.Without Clive acting as her informant around Liam, things were going to be more difficult.Sitting on the sofa in her hotel room, Sophia carefully considered where to start investigating Liam's marriage.His wedding announcement had been too sudden, and even his parents didn't know who the bride was. With no useful information from Clive, she had to rely on herself.Suddenly, her phone rang.Sophia walked over, barefoot, and saw that it was Victor calling. She frowned in annoyance but picked up the call."Dad.""I heard from your mother that you're back in the country. Where are you? I want to see you!""I'm very busy with work right now, no time to meet. I'll contact
Although it was uncertain whether Liam had reconnected with Suzy, Sophia knew very well the influence Suzy had in Liam's heart.She actually hoped the person appearing by Liam's side wasn't Suzy, but someone else.Any other woman would be easier to deal with than Suzy! It wasn't that Suzy was particularly capable, but that Liam genuinely cared deeply for her.Sophia was certain that Liam would never put so much effort and time into another woman again, so as long as it wasn't Suzy, it would be fine.She glanced at her watch, realizing it was almost time for her to leave.Sophia changed into a well-tailored women's suit, which made her appear even more professional and imposing. Returning to Northorn City and back to the Park Group, she had to assert her authority and show everyone who the real winner was....In the meeting room of the Park Group, Liam was listening to the investment department manager report on the project's progress. Occasionally, he furrowed his thick eyebrows sligh
"Mr. Park...""You too."People without ability had no need to stay at Park Group.Liam strode directly to the elevator. When he reached the office floor, he saw his assistant trying to stop someone.From the back, he already knew who it was."Mr. Park."Seeing Liam, the assistant quickly bowed his head in greeting.Sophia turned around at the sound, her high heels clicking as she walked toward Liam. "What's going on here? Mr. Park Sr. asked me to come back and help Park Group, yet I don’t even have an office?""You need to go through HR to join Park Group. Once they approve, you will have a place." Liam continued walking toward his office without stopping.Sophia hurriedly said, "Liam, it was Mr. Park Sr. who asked me to come back and help you. You can call him to confirm.""I don’t have time."Sophia was speechless. She hadn’t expected that her return would be met with so many closed doors! Clive wouldn’t take her calls, and Liam outright refused to accept her.Seeing him about to en
"None of your business."That same response again.Sometimes Sophia really wanted to ask Liam what she lacked. In terms of feelings for Liam and contributions to the Park Group, how was she not a hundred times better than Suzy?He should have been hers......In his office, Liam had just sat down when Alec messaged that the arrangements were made.He opened his computer and glanced at the files. His eyes involuntarily fell on the Windsting City resort project submitted by the branch office.Had the project entered the second phase?He wondered if her injuries had healed.He wondered if Jeffrey had been visiting her in the hospital.Thinking about this, a self-mocking smile appeared on Liam’s lips. He felt so insignificant now; even when he had pursued Suzy with all his effort, he hadn't felt this way.What made him feel even more shameful was that he simultaneously took out his phone and dialed Clive's number.After a few rings, the call was answered, "What's up? Do you need help with
At that moment, Liam felt as if his heart was suddenly and fiercely squeezed! He was nervous, excited, and most of all, at a loss for what to do...Yes, the CEO of the powerful Park Group, who could dominate the business world, was now as helpless as a schoolboy receiving a message from his crush for the first time.It had been four years since he last heard from Suzy.He had forgotten that he had bought the driver's contact number!Suzy texted, “Hello?”Seeing no response, Suzy sent another message.Liam snapped out of it and quickly typed with his long fingers, “Here.”Suddenly realizing this reply sounded too much like his usual style, and fearing Suzy might recognize him, he added a smiling emoji.Watching the "typing..." indicator, Liam waited, his eyes fixed on the screen.Soon, she transferred him a sum of money.Suzy texted, “Here is the remaining money. Please check if it's correct.”Liam didn't care about the money at all. Without even looking, he replied directly, “It's corr
Liam thought back to when Alec told him that Wendy had given birth to a daughter. This hand must belong to that child.After all, Suzy and Wendy were really close friends, so it made sense for Suzy to post pictures of Wendy's daughter.Obsessed, Liam continued scrolling through her posts. He even opened and examined the company photos, not missing a single one, as if doing so would help him understand more about her life over the past four years.It was clear that Suzy was very busy with work. She had very few posts on her profile feeds and even fewer about her personal life.When he exited the screen, he saw that Suzy had replied.Suzy texted, “Okay, I'll try to accommodate you.”Liam stared at the message for a moment before immediately calling Alec."Can you contact the driver I used in Windsting City before?""I should be able to. I'll find his number and get back to you." Alec didn't understand Liam's intentions but followed orders.A minute after hanging up, Alec called back, "Mr
Liam rubbed his forehead, convincing himself that it was just curiosity.Or maybe he was simply concerned about her injury. After all, it happened while she was working on the project, so as the CEO, it was only natural for him to show some concern.Yes, that was it....Suzy checked her phone, confirming that the driver hadn't replied before putting it away and focusing on the meeting.She had deleted him on a whim, thinking they would have no further interactions after she left Windsting City. However, when he sent a friend request again, it made her feel a bit awkward!It was like getting caught right after doing something wrong.She really hadn't given it much thought. She just didn’t like having unfamiliar contacts on WhatsApp and assumed the driver wouldn’t need to contact her again."Miss Chase, is there anything you would like to add?"Peter suddenly directed the conversation to her.Suzy quickly smiled and took out the PPT she had worked on overnight. "Regarding our construct
As soon as Suzy opened the door, she noticed an extra desk in her office!Was someone going to share this space with her? No one had mentioned it to her.Suzy was about to turn around and ask Peter about it when she saw Ryan walking towards her with a spring in his step."Finished with the meeting?""Yes." Suzy couldn't avoid him, so she smiled and nodded.Ryan waved a lunch box in front of her. "Hey, I just drove an hour to get this for you! You haven't eaten yet, right? This is a local specialty from Windsting City.""…No need. I'll eat something at the hotel after I finish up here. I'm not hungry right now.""You're that cautious about just eating something?" Ryan blinked, pretending to be hurt. "Afraid I put something in it? Here, I'll take the first bite."Suzy felt cornered and awkwardly waved her hand. "No, it's just that I'm not hungry! But thanks for the gesture, I'll take it back to the hotel and eat it later."She knew that if she didn't accept it, Ryan would stay and talk f
