After finishing her report, Selina realized her palms were damp with a thin layer of sweat.She took a breath, forcing a polite smile, and asked David, who sat opposite her without saying a word: "Mr. Wilson, do you think there's anything that needs to be modified in this proposal?"David turned to
Peter raised an eyebrow, deliberately making things difficult: "The original data is company confidential. If you want it, you must get signatures from the chairman and president."Selina frowned, seeing the challenge in Peter's eyes. She didn't argue further and turned to leave.At lunch, Peter and

"I don't mind marrying him," she said, head lowered and face flushed."But David's personality... you two are from completely different worlds. How could you be willing to marry him?" Sarah still couldn't believe it.Selina didn't dare admit she had feelings for David.David seemed like a divine bei

The offending vehicle, enraged by the driver's attitude, rammed them again.The driver, who had gone to settle the score, stared in shock at the scene before him. Too frightened to utter a word, he completely forgot about his passenger in the car.A window rolled down, and a check was hurled at the
Selina quickly let go, her face burning red. She noticed a few short hairs still tangled around her fingers and sheepishly hid her hand behind her back."I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to do that," Selina apologized breathlessly.David, who had been fuming moments ago, caught sight of Selina's bowed he
Selina finally realized what had felt off earlier. The receptionist had assumed she and David were a couple and had given them a shared room. In her panic, she had forgotten to clarify they needed separate accommodations."Well, in that case, you can have this room," Selina said, seizing the opportu
Startled by the unexpected silhouette in the darkness, Selina jumped, instinctively curling into a ball."It's me!" David quickly said, realizing he had scared her.Hearing his familiar voice, Selina finally let out her held breath.The next second, she pushed away David's hand as he reached out to

Pretending he had never escaped.Thomas's smooth handling of the Meracia situation was also thanks to the information David provided."Why did you keep this from me?" Selina's fingertips felt ice cold, struck by an inexplicable feeling of betrayal.She alone had been kept in the dark, worrying about
After tossing and turning, Selina couldn't fall back asleep. After calculating the time difference, she decided to call Thomas.Thomas had just finished dealing with William's matter when he saw Selina's call. Checking the time in Japan, his expression changed slightly as he quickly answered."Selin
Worried he wouldn't believe her, she added, "You can verify right now who really controls S Tech Group."Bruno hesitated before hanging up to verify Selina's claims.He had originally planned to stay by Selina's side as David, hoping she would gradually fall for him.He believed that with enough tim
He was much more cautious now, choosing his words carefully.Selina took a deep breath, her bottom lip turning white from biting it, and finally steeled herself."Didn't you say before that you'd fed David to the fish?" she said through gritted teeth. "Now you're trying to use him to threaten me? Do
The implication was clear - if they protected Selina well, he'd overlook their failure with Bruno. If not, their punishment would be even worse.The guards quickly agreed.Watching Joseph stride away urgently, Selina had no choice but to return to the hotel under the guards' watchful eyes.She paced
