Suzy felt a bit nervous, so she didn't wander far and found a nearby bench to sit on.The voice call connected, and the driver's voice came through."Sorry to trouble you so late!""It's okay. Where are you now?" Suzy lowered her voice, not wanting to disturb the other patients."I'm near Jason Road. I can't get a taxi here, and I want to get back to my hotel."Suzy checked the map based on the hotel name he gave and then carefully explained the directions, including where to turn.He listened quietly until she asked, "Did you hear that?""Yes, I'm listening.""That's about it. If you still can't find your way, keep messaging me on WhatsApp, or you should be able to find a taxi if you get to the main street.""Alright."Suzy glanced at her watch and said softly, "Since you're in West City, I can bring the receipts to you tomorrow?""No need," the driver replied immediately. "I'll ask for them if I need them."Suzy was a bit confused. She had deleted his WhatsApp before, and he had to r
Since Betty had an issue the previous day, Suzy first met with Shane alone in the morning. After Betty returned from the hospital, the three of them went to the meeting room.Once they finalized the due diligence process and assignments, Betty stood up and apologized to Suzy, "I'm sorry, Miss Chase... It was my fault for eating too much and delaying our work. I won't do it again.""It's okay, the food in West City is delicious. I understand." Suzy stood up and patted her shoulder. "Let's make sure this due diligence is perfect. When we get back to the company, I'll ask Ryan to give you both some bonus.""Miss Chase, you're so kind! Thank you!" Betty looked like she was about to cry with gratitude. "Those who talk behind your back clearly don't know you at all!"Hearing this, Shane quickly gave her a look, signaling her to watch what she says.Suzy laughed. "It's alright, I'm used to it. Some people lack work skills but excel at gossip. Such people will eventually be eliminated by the c
Gavin smiled, "I'll discuss it with the higher-ups as soon as possible!"After speaking, he handed over another brown paper bag he was holding. "Take a look at this. These are performance reports from other companies that have processed agricultural products. This field shows significant potential. The government is currently prioritizing agricultural assistance, which means many processes can be expedited. You know you’d understand."She understood!How could she not?As long as the higher-ups agreed, many tasks could be completed.But circumstances could change in an instant; she worried that while everything seemed good now, things could turn bad at any moment.Who would bear the responsibility then?"Yes, I will review it carefully! DollarMax values this area, which is why we want to join this project."The initial meeting ended, and Suzy prepared to leave.Gavin suddenly spoke from behind, "Didn't you say earlier that you planned to treat me to a meal?"Suzy was speechless and im
"No, don't touch this project, and make sure no one else does either."Alec was getting more confused by his boss' instructions.But since he was given this directive, there must be a reason!"Alright, don't worry. I'll keep a close watch on it," Alec continued with his report, "And regarding the person you asked me to look into, Shane Cole, he's an assistant in DollarMax's project department. He hasn't been with the company long, and he graduated from Fortier University with excellent grades.""Is he single?"Alec hadn't expected Liam to ask about this!At first, he thought Liam wanted to recruit Shane into the company..."Probably, yes." After all, the young man had only graduated a few years ago. It's unlikely he'd be married so soon."I don't want 'probably.' I need exact information.""Give me ten minutes."Liam hung up the phone and rubbed his temples.Thinking about last night, seeing Suzy and Shane together, made him inexplicably upset!Suzy was supposed to be with Jeffrey, so
Gavin finally relaxed his stern expression, downed his drink in one gulp, and then looked at Shane, saying, "Don't worry. Since both of you are here, and if Miss Chase got drunk, you can take her back."Having been in the business world for so many years, Gavin naturally understood what these two were worried about.Although he found Suzy quite stunning and indeed beautiful, the company's partnership was more important. He wouldn't do anything inappropriate that could tarnish the company's reputation or his own future.Still, being suspected felt uncomfortable."Sorry, Mr. Chance," Shane immediately apologized, showing he could adapt to the situation.Suzy wasn't lying about her low alcohol tolerance. Despite being in the business world for so long, she still hadn't developed a high tolerance for alcohol.She thought she could hold on a bit longer before leaving, but then Zenway's boss showed up!As soon as she saw his beer belly, Suzy knew she wouldn't escape getting drunk today.Whil
Suzy returned to the table to find Gavin eagerly pouring drinks for his superior. When he saw her coming, he immediately made room for her to sit next to the boss.Suzy had faced this kind of workplace harassment many times before.She didn't feel the need to be polite. Ignoring Gavin, she sat back in her original seat.Gavin glanced at his boss, relieved to see he wasn't upset, and then said, "Miss Chase, Mr. Hanson has been praising you! He thinks you have a great image, excellent attitude, and must be highly capable to hold the position of Project Manager at such a young age.""Mr. Hanson is too kind, I really don't deserve it." Suzy smiled and raised her glass, "Mr. Hanson, a toast to you."Mr. Han, delighted, nodded repeatedly. "Good, good! I'll drink to that."Seeing their interaction, Shane realized there was no way Suzy would return to the hotel sober tonight. He discreetly messaged Betty, asking her to arrange for a car to wait outside the restaurant, ready to take Suzy back t
"Have you ever had sex with a man?”As night fell, Suzy Chase, who was on a business trip and had indulged in a little alcohol, should have retired to her slumber. Nevertheless, the moment she shut her eyes, her friend Wendy Park’s words started echoing in her mind."Trust me, it's amazing. Seriously, go find yourself a hot guy while you're still young! If you can't find one, don't be shy about DIY. Plus, I've got a stash of adult movies, if you need a little inspiration, call me."She couldn't remember what response she gave to Wendy back then.Suzy lay on the hotel bed, her delicate face blushing from the alcohol, her thick, flowing hair scattered around her like seaweed.In just one month, she would turn twenty-six, already an adult woman, but she had never had a boyfriend, her first kiss remained untouched, and other intimate encounters seemed like distant dreams.In fact, Wendy had brought it up before, often discussing explicit topics on a daily basis. However, today, it unexpect
At dawn, Suzy awoke to find the man next to her still sound asleep. His powerful arm enveloped her entirely, and his steady breath lightly teased her neck.Aching and tingling sensations surged between her legs as the last traces of drunkenness dissipated, and her rationality returned.What had she done?...She had actually slept with the CEO!Suzy's breath caught in her throat, and she carefully withdrew from his embrace, then hurriedly got out of bed, put on her clothes, packed her belongings, and rushed out of room 1501 as if her life depended on it, heading straight to the hotel reception to book another room.As she was making the payment on her phone, she suddenly realized that the one she had asked for the adult films from wasn’t Wendy, but Liam!A few years ago, during a middle school reunion, the class monitor created a group chat, encouraging everyone to add each other as friends. Suzy still remembered clearly that it was Liam who added her first. However, after accepting, he
