Was she about to meet Liam?Suzy found it hard to put her current mood into words; she felt like she was in a state of uncertainty, neither here nor there.She wanted to find an excuse to avoid it, but then, why was she trying to escape? After all, there had to be a conclusion between her and Liam, whether it was terminating the contract or whatever it might be, sooner or later, they had to meet.Alec had left right after giving instructions, leaving Suzy to spend the entire afternoon thinking about the evening's meeting.After finishing work, she walked out of the company and saw Jeffrey's car parked in the distance, with Wendy standing next to it.Suzy walked briskly over. "Why did you both come?""Well, I thought the headquarters was far from my place, and my cousin had some free time, so I asked him to pick me up.""No need, I can just take the subway."Wendy affectionately linked her arm with Suzy's and giggled. "I just wanted to see you more! Back when we worked at FortuneWave,
After returning to Wendy's house, Suzy didn't even have time to drink water. She immediately started organizing the materials she would need for the meeting.Since the task from GrowthTech had just been assigned to her today, and it was a major move for the company, she needed to pay full attention during the meeting because her understanding of this project was still at a basic level. After preparing everything she could think of, Suzy sat in her chair, on her computer, and entered the company's meeting interface.It displayed – 8 P.M. Channel One Technology Development Project Meeting Main Host: Liam Park.”As she gazed at the name on the screen, a sudden wave of anxiety washed over Suzy, as though her concerns had just sprung to life.Would she get to witness his injuries during the meeting? Would his face be permanently scarred?She lowered her gaze to the bottom right corner of the computer. There was still nearly an hour before the meeting started. Normally, she should go find
Alec provided a detailed report on the due diligence of the GrowthTech project, covering various aspects such as finance, future prospects, changes in shareholders, and a thorough analysis of the current state of technology development.Suddenly, Suzy heard someone mention her name."Miss Chase from the Investment Department recently proposed a technology project related to new automobiles to FortuneWave, and it has been submitted to the headquarters for review. “I took a look, and if the information is accurate, it aligns well with our current development needs."The speaker was the Director of Investments, Gary Clinton, holding a significant position within Park Group. Behind the camera, Liam nodded slightly without lifting his eyelids and said, "Alec, please focus on it.""I've already looked into it. It was developed by several university professors, with a certain Professor Jeffrey Palmer leading the project. He holds a number of patents and is indeed a talented individual."Whe
Were those words targeted at her?Seeing a flood of responses below, Suzy quickly sent a message acknowledging receipt.The meeting continued until one in the morning, but with the CEO as the host, no one dared to yawn.Finally, the CEO's secretary concluded the meeting and announced, "That's it for today's meeting."Suzy breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to turn off her camera and stretch when Liam added at the end, "The person in charge of the new car technology project mentioned in the meeting earlier will meet me separately.""Are you referring to the project led by Jeffrey Palmer?" Alec asked directly."Yes.""Alright! Miss Chase from the Investment Department, you will connect with Mr. Park separately."Suzy really hadn't expected this surprise. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, she nodded quickly. "Okay."Exiting the meeting room, she stared at Liam’s personal account for several seconds but couldn't muster the courage to request the connection.She was afraid and emb
Without waiting for Suzy to say anything, Liam had already hung up on the other end.It appeared as if their connection had instantly returned to the dynamics of a CEO and an employee.Right, he had reconciled with Sophia. What position could her substitute still have?She closed her computer. After changing into her pajamas and taking a shower, Suzy lay in bed but unexpectedly couldn't fall asleep.She tossed and turned, unable to sleep.It was already early morning, and if she didn't sleep soon, she would have to get up for work!Suzy closed her eyes tightly, but no matter what, she couldn't feel sleepy. She decided to get up and restart her computer to continue working.Just as she logged into the company's server, she noticed that Liam was still online.Hadn't he gone to sleep?She stared at the screen for a while before suddenly remembering that Liam was currently abroad, in a different time zone. It was afternoon there.She tugged at her lips, chuckling with a hint of self-deprec
Suzy couldn’t believe her mother actually called Jeffrey! Suzy's eyebrows furrowed deeply, and she felt a powerful surge of anger welling up inside her, like an unstoppable force.The feeling of being controlled and coerced in every aspect was really infuriating her."Why didn't you tell me and just go contact him yourself? I told you he's busy, but he agreed to your call just to show you some respect!" "Are you interrogating me?" Melissa's tone became just as fiery. "Everything I do, I do it for whom? You got married without even telling me, and now you're blaming me! I just want him to do more for you, to spend more time with you. Why are you so upset about this?”Suzy slammed her phone down loudly.That same old phrase again."For your own good!"But what exactly did "for your own good" mean? Was it good just because she thought it was?Suzy tried to calm herself down, not wanting these matters to affect her. After all, no matter what, the upcoming surgery was the most important
Honestly, Suzy couldn't help but admire Sophia. She was willing to ask her about such a private matter without any hint of embarrassment.Seriously...They were discussing Liam, and Sophia was Liam’s crush for years. Now that Sophia's feelings for him were mutual, Suzy couldn't help but wonder why she was involved in this situation, being asked for advice on such personal matters.Moreover, considering the time difference, it was likely late at night in Ashington. During this passionate time of day, it was hard not to wonder what they had been up to that required Liam to change his personal attire."I'm sorry, I don't know," Suzy replied. Frustrated, she turned her phone off and set it aside to avoid interrupting her work.…Meanwhile, in a luxury hotel suite in Ashington.Liam had just finished dealing with company matters and was preparing to change the dressing on his wound before resting when suddenly, there was a knocking at the door.He furrowed his brow and walked over, openi
Liam granted Suzy the official status and legal confirmation of marriage! This was something the Park family had always desired for him to give Sophia!"For now, don't let her know." Liam took his mother's condition into account, but he also realized that if he didn't secure Suzy's commitment now and make the most of the current situation, he might lose the chance later on."Yeah, don't worry. I won't say anything." Sophia took a few steps back. "Since you don't need my help, I won't disturb your rest. Get some sleep."After saying this, Liam only nodded faintly.He didn't even say goodnight and simply closed the door.He walked back to the bed, and suddenly, he recalled the conversation he had overheard through Suzy's phone during the meeting."Suzy, can I come in?""Don't mention it. I thought even during overtime work, you need to eat something! If it weren't for Wendy insisting on buying a few pieces of clothing, we could have come back earlier. “Tomorrow, I'll ask her to prepar
