Angela Zylians was scheduled for an interview near the end, feeling that her interview could have been better. However, she still had to wait for the notification for the written test and practical assessment in the second round.After the interview, she was lost in her thoughts about her family and accidentally pressed the wrong floor. When she realized it upon exiting, she intended to take another elevator down. But by chance, she saw a sign pointing to the rooftop. Unconsciously, she followed it, curious to see if standing on the rooftop of the Desmond Corporation building would feel different from other places.If she had known that her unconscious action would lead her to encounter her former benefactor, she would not have taken even half a step up here.But when she pushed the door and saw the man about to leave quietly, she couldn't stop herself because Jacky Forger had already seen her.Angela Zylians didn't know how to face him at this moment. She didn't expect to meet so soo
"OK, I know, let's go." He quickly shut down Fiona Forger's computer, leaving her no chance to protest."So fast?" Fiona Forger felt incredibly defeated. She had been trying for half a day without any results, while he only took a few minutes. The difference was significant.He had unintentionally extinguished her previous fighting spirit."Why are you so down?" Damian Desmond embraced her in the elevator, looking at her pouting mouth with a teasing smile."I feel like a failure!" Miss Forger weakly leaned against the man, whispering, "Why is being an assistant harder than being a CEO?""The CEO is the decision-maker, responsible for the entire company, while the job of a secretary is to assist the CEO in making informed decisions by collecting and organizing necessary information. This is outside your job scope; Anna should have assigned this task to someone else. Let me talk to her tomorrow."He chose comforting words to prevent her from being bothered by such trivial matters."So w
He knew that his son had a natural talent for computers, but he didn't expect the boy also to be interested in the stock market.After standing for ten minutes, the boy hadn't made any trading moves yet, just staring at the screen. Was he unsure of what to do?"The stock STC has crossed 100, buy 10,000 shares as soon as the market opens," Puddy Forger heard a noise and quickly turned around. He was stunned when he saw the man standing there with his arms crossed. When did this man come in? How long had he been watching? Why didn't the boy notice anything?"If you're a minute late in grabbing the stocks, it will lose meaning," the man said sternly."I don't have much capital, so I can't eat that much at once," the boy shrugged. The boss sure had a big mouth, talking about buying 10,000 shares.Damian Desmond let go of his hand, bent down, and his ten fingers swiftly entered another trading account. Within moments, 10,000 shares were purchased.A few minutes later, the numbers on the sc
Or instead, not only Leah Cullen knew, but others did too, including Charlie Swan.But those heartless people never thought of telling him. Friendship nowadays could be more reliable. It's infuriating!At this moment, the butler announced that dinner was ready and served."Do you want to eat together?" He held his son's soft hand and asked."I do." The boy didn't hesitate.And so, for the first time, father and son held hands and went downstairs. This scene moved the old butler following behind them, and his eyes grew warm.The Desmond family hadn't heard children's laughter for so many years. He was afraid he might have to wait until his last day, but unexpectedly, there were still happy surprises in this world.The little young master of the family was already six years old!Moreover, the bond between father and son seemed good. At least, the sight of them holding hands like this was beautiful.After finishing their meal together, Damian Desmond asked his son if he wanted to go to t
'Why should I care about public image?' Cherry Desmond thought with a disdainful smirk, contemplating the premature end of her acting career that hadn't even begun."You don't have any evidence, so we'll leave," Fiona Forger glanced at her watch and realized it was past nine o'clock. It was time to go home, wondering if there would be any issues when she and her father interacted."No, you can't leave," the two determined saleswomen refused to let them go.The two security guards, noticing the dispute, stepped forward to intervene."Oh, are you trying to force me to confess?" Cherry Desmond had never encountered such a situation before. She had visited numerous jewelry stores of all sizes in Singapore, but this store was the first to block the way of the young heiress. "You dare to obstruct the path of Miss Desmond?""We do not intend to do that," a saleswoman said. "But if you've damaged items in the store, you must compensate for them.""What if I can't afford it? Am I not allowed t
Alice undoubtedly provoked Cherry Desmond, and she could say anything she wanted. Moreover, she spoke with great satisfaction.How could someone who was four years older than her be her stepmother? And such a person at that? Was she intentionally trying to make her hate her? It was unbearable.Fiona Forger, who had been listening, couldn't help but widen her eyes and mouth in astonishment. Not only because of Alice and Mr. Peter Desmond's affair but also because of Cherry Desmond's disrespectful words towards her stepmother...She knew that Cherry Desmond had always been like this, saying whatever she pleased, never afraid of offending anyone. But saying such things in front of her father was indeed..."Be quiet, dear." Mr. Peter Desmond took a step forward. "I know you don't like hearing about this, but please respect my decision."The matter had shifted from dealing with the public to dealing with the family. It was no longer a public matter when people of the same family appeared.
So, it took almost ten minutes to investigate the origin of the incident.He, for the sake of that girl, had done all this. What else could he say?A silent, throbbing pain spread in his chest, causing his hand holding the wine glass to tilt, spilling the remaining wine on his pristine white bathrobe.A few drops of dark red wine, resembling blood flowing from an unseen wound in his heart...His heart felt like it was being squeezed by an invisible hand, making breathing difficult.Take a deep breath! Take another deep breath...A minute later, he gradually regained his composure.He glanced at his phone, not bothering to pay attention to the countless messages in the group, and saved the photo that everyone was wildly circulating before going offline.He had never made any remarks in the group chat or was often online. Initially, he joined the group because he was also in it, but now...He was no longer in the group and didn't care about this group anymore.o0oThe two girls had fini
"So, how is that compensation calculated?" Miss Forger was genuinely interested in this matter. If she heard correctly, it was pretty high."The most basic formula is the offering price multiplied by the number of shares multiplied by the agreed percentage. Do you understand?" Anna Desmond's words were barely finished when the secretary's voice came from outside the door."Desmond Secretary, the receptionist just reported that Mr. Lampo's group has arrived."o0oIn the CEO's office at Desmond Corporation, Mr. Peter Desmond, who had been absent for the past few days, finally appeared today. He didn't neglect his work because of his divorce. But how could Mr. Desmond, a man, live without women? As soon as one left, another younger and more beautiful one immediately filled the vacancy, with a long line of girls waiting to be served by that wealthy man.But today, he appeared so happy, naturally not because of women but because an old friend had visited from afar.In his territory, how co
