Tabitha's POV

I stood in the stall, continuing to listen to their conversation.

"We'll trade Tabitha for the collaboration. As long as we sign the contract, we get to surpass Group B."

"If I were Tabitha, I would stay invisible. She's just a newcomer. She shouldn't have shown off at all. We all used to be newcomers, and none of us were like her. The second she arrived, she talked back to Ms. Mendoza. Does she think she's better than us?"

"Maybe there is someone backing her up."

"Yeah, right. Ms. Mendoza has already looked into her. Alvin doesn't have a girlfriend at all. In fact, no woman ever gets to be near him. Who could possibly back her up?"

Their laughter gradually faded away, and only then did I come out of the stall.

Sonia wanted to trade me? Yeah, she wished.

Sneering, I washed my hands in the sink.

As I was wiping my hands, I saw a janitor next to me sorting through the trash.

I approached her and asked friendly, "Excuse me

    Tabitha's POV"Mr. Watson, I'm so sorry. We invited you for dinner, yet you arrived earlier than us. To show how sincere I am, I'm gonna make sure tonight's dinner satisfies you," Sonia said.Harry smiled, "It's my honor to wait for you, elegant ladies. Well, this one looks unfamiliar. Could you introduce her?"Sonia quickly smiled fawningly, "My bad. Mr. Watson, this is Tabitha. She has joined us only recently. Tabitha, what are you waiting for? Why don't you say hello to Mr. Watson?"Harry was probably in his forties. Similar to many middle-aged men, he was with a greasy appearance and a big belly.He squinted his eyes and sized me up from head to toe.His gaze bugged me a lot."Mr. Watson," I greeted casually.He immediately reached out, wanting to pull me over. "Tabitha, come sit here."I sat down in a seat that was relatively far from the main seat before he could touch my hand.Seeing his awkwardly extended hand in mid-air and

    Tabitha's POVWidening her eyes, Sonia stared at me, finding my words hard to believe. "Tabitha, are you here to work or to study? You're kinda pretty, which is why I'm still standing here teaching you instead of leaving. We're in sales, and flexibility is what we need. You despise the chance? You know what? Countless people would fight for it. I'll be straight with you. Mr. Watson came here because of you tonight. Spend the night with him and get us the contract. If so, we get to surpass Group B, and you don't have to quit. It'll be a win-win situation."I found her words ridiculous. "Selling my body out in exchange for an achievement? Yeah, I don't think so.""Fine. You think this is below you? Tell you what? If you can't please Mr. Watson today, by the end of the month, we'll both be doomed. Different from you, I'll be scolded at most. You? You can kiss your job goodbye.""Whatever." I didn't even bother to argue.Sonia grabbed my hand, looking disappoint

    Tabitha's POV"I already gave you plenty of time today." Derek's voice was deep and a bit unfathomable.I could feel his eyes on me, just like all those countless nights we used to share.Panicking, I watched him take off his clothes till only a shirt was left.Slowly and unhurriedly, he unbuttoned his shirt.The lights of the room lit up, and I saw his bare chest, which was nothing but familiar to me.His chest once fascinated me. I knew better than anyone how good his figure was.It had been a long time since I enjoyed such a view, and still, it managed to take my breath away.Derek used his fingers to brush across my face. "You said yourself. Even if I stand in front of you showing my eight-pack, you still won't give a shit."Utterly embarrassed, I bit my lip. Sure enough, he heard what I said. I hastily turned my head away, trying not to look at him, yet my body betrayed me. My gaze fell on his chest uncontrollably."Don't you wa

    Tabitha's POVDerek came off as omnipotent as if he could effortlessly control the life and death of mortals.On the contrary, I was just a nobody. He could easily crush me in the blink of an eye.Even his voice was supremely proud."You see, whether you are happy or not doesn't change anything. What matters is that you still don't get to change what I wanna do just like the old times."He thought he got to do anything however he wanted? How unscrupulous! His words made me instinctively wanna go against him."Derek, I've changed. The Tabitha who loved you unreservedly is dead."I reached out and pushed his body away."What is it? You begged me not to divorce you before, and now you won't even let me touch you?"The more I struggled, the more furious he became. Even his face was burning with anger.In terms of strength, I was no match for him at all, which irritated me a lot. The cold glass in front of me contrasted with his burning b

    Tabitha's POVThe second Derek mentioned the cake, I knew immediately what he was referring to. Back then, he doted on me so much that I felt as if the luckiest woman in the world.That year, I clamored for a bespoke cake before my birthday. The cake had a very special shape, and it came along with extremely expensive ingredients.It cost over a hundred grand.It was more like a work of art than a cake.When Derek brought it to me, there were supposed to be two crystal swans with their necks intertwined, but one of the swans' heads fell on the cake.I didn't make a fuss. I just had a bad feeling as if it was foretelling something.Derek kept apologizing to me. After a few days, I received a cake in the shape of a swan castle.There were two big and beautiful crystal swans on the lake's surface with their necks intertwined. I was so moved when I saw the cake.I had no idea he almost died because of this.He must have been afraid of ru

    Tabitha's POV The next day, I went back to the company. I didn't know how Sonia dealt with Harry last night after I left. As soon as I walked in, I realized something different about Sonia. She was wearing a Hermes scarf. She was haggard, even though she tried to cover it with the thick foundation on her face. The second she saw me, she glared at me fiercely, like a vicious coyote in the desert. To my surprise, she went back to her office without saying a word. I took my glass and went to the tea room to fetch some water. As soon as I stepped inside, I saw some people talking with their heads down separated quickly, and they looked at me secretly non-stop. I knew what they were talking about, of course. Even those in Group B, who I didn't know well, stopped and teased me when they saw me, "Group C is so full of promising talents. Ms. Mendoza took her to one dinner party, and the deal was sealed. She's quite something." "You mean she's qui

    Tabitha's POVI enjoyed the furious, embarrassed look on Sonia's face.Then I chuckled, saying, "I learn from the best. You messed with me first. Or I wouldn't show them to anyone. After all, it'd do me no good. Too bad that you're so heartless."I sighed, deliberately looking sad, "You slept with Mr. Watson and made everyone think it was me. You know what? I've got no interest in being the scapegoat."Then I knocked on the desk. "What do you suggest I should do?""Tabitha, you see, it was just a slip of the hand. I had no idea this would happen. How about this? You'll get a share of the deal this time," Sonia immediately said fawningly.I was just bluffing. In fact, I thought it was the one behind the scenes rather than Sonia who did this.The one was always lurking in the dark, spying on me 24/7.I snorted, "You really think I give a damn about that?""What do you want then? What's done is done. It's too late to withdraw the photos."

I had to seize every chance I got.Thinking that, I quickly got up and wanted to leave through the side door. Too bad Daphne was already here and saw me."Excuse me. Miss?"I walked faster as soon as I heard her phony voice.However, Emma dragged me back in order to impress Daphne. What a dumbass!"Why were you running? Didn't you hear the future Mrs. Greenwood was talking to you?"I felt speechless for a second. Emma had no idea how awkward things would be if I was face-to-face with Daphne."Sorry. She has only joined us recently. She was in a hurry to the bathroom."Emma was "kind" enough to explain for my sake.Daphne said, "Raise your head."I had no choice but to look up. Our eyes met, and immediately, D

At worst, from now on, Zander will give up all inheritance rights. Let me take him away. He will never appear before you again."Even now, Ambrose still spoke with a condescending tone, not realizing any fault of his.If Derek were a child, he would definitely be very sad. Now, he just slowly shifted his bloodshot eyes toward Ambrose's face.With a smirk that seemed more like a grimace, Derek spoke like a devil, "What of mine does he have to give up? Ambrose, if I were you, I'd get out of here and stop being a nuisance.""What?"In the past, Derek was still respectful to him. Now, his tone was disdainful and cruel.Clearly, Derek was not in the mood to argue.He looked down at Zander coldly, "You're not talking, huh? I have plenty of ways to make you talk."After saying this, Derek dragged him by the arm. Since Z

After Tabitha was urgently taken to the hospital last night, Alpha Elliott was so enraged that he had an episode and returned to his previous state of confusion.Ambrose and Phoebe wanted to take him away, but Derek had given orders. The Greenwood family's guards refused to let them take Zander.Zander had fainted once. The doctor had revived him on the spot. He then continued his punishment of kneeling until now.He had been able to make snide remarks while watching the drama unfold last night. But after kneeling all night, Zander felt as if he wished he were dead.His knees were numb from the pain, and his head wound was only rudimentarily treated.He felt that he had lost sensation in his lower body.Exhausted, hungry, and sleepy, he dared not fall.He had fallen once in the middle of the night due to extreme sleepiness, and as a result, his body was covered in glass, causing him unbearable pain.In a daze, he saw Derek approach him.

    Third person's POVDerek returned to the main bedroom and casually turned on the shower. Before the water could heat up, he stepped in.The cold water splashed on his body, but it was not as cold as the chill in his heart.He recalled the night two years ago when Tabitha was tied up in the bathroom by him, soaked by the cold water.The water was so cold. She must have been utterly desperate at that time.Thinking of Tabitha's current state, Derek was filled with regret. The harshness he had shown Tabitha in the past had all turned into blades stabbing himself.The more he loved Tabitha, the more he blamed himself now.His wolf whimpered in pain within his mind, "I can't sense Tabitha's wolf. They are very weak."Derek did not respond. He was aware.He would definitely agree to exchange his own life for Tabitha's now.Alvin hurriedly arrived and walked to the bathroom door. It was pitch black inside. But with the light from outside, he vaguely saw Derek sitting against the wall.He was

Daphne and I didn't-"Tabitha coldly interrupted him, "What story are you preparing to make up this time? Do you still remember that? When I was pregnant and fell from the stairs, how did you respond when I called you?"This was the only fragment she could recall. It still felt like a needle piercing her heart when she thought about it.Hearing her asking this question, Derek knew he couldn't hide the truth from her anymore."Tabitha, I can explain," he said.Tabitha indifferently remarked, "Perhaps you had some unavoidable reasons. But you left your mate to save someone else. I'm sorry, I can't empathize with your reasons. I only feel sad for myself. You were right. It's better to forget those memories, as remembering them would only add more troubles."Such a perceptive Tabitha left Derek speechless.No matter what he said now, even if it was the truth, Tabitha wo
