These sensitive words fell into their ears, making all the protesting employees suddenly dumbfounded; everyone looked at each other.
Even the woman standing on the wooden crate couldn't help but turn pale, 'And...still downsizing?''That's right.' Emma Waderson leisurely swept her eyes around and said faintly, 'Surely people aren't so naive as to think that the plan to cut staff is done?' At this, the smile on her lips deepened, 'I'm just getting started.'***'Mrs. Waserson, you're awesome; no wonder people call you an assassin in the HR department.'Eyes filled with adoration, Fiona Forger looked at Emma Waderson sitting across from her behind the dining table.She only said a sentence or two and settled the rowdy crowd, and then the three of them went to lunch together.Faced with Fiona Forger's adoring gaze, Emma Waderson only smiled, seconds later saying, 'You don't look like Jacky Forger's sister.'He heard her mention his brother, who wBut now that they were arguing in the company, he couldn't help but take a look.'Chairman Desmond's office.'Five minutes later, Damian Desmond was standing outside his father, Peter Desmond's office, but he heard the constant pounding of things inside before he could enter.And Alice, who had always been standing outside, saw him and hurried over, the nervous look on her face relaxed, 'Damian...' She was about to call his name, but she remembered the cold expression on her face the last time she called him; she quickly stopped but still smiled, 'Mr. Desmond, are you here? Are you going to go in to dissuade them?''I know how to handle my family's affairs by myself. You go out first!' His face remained expressionless, Damian Desmond said.Alice said nothing more, bowed, and left.In the office, the atmosphere had not yet settled; Damian Desmond took out a cigarette and lit it, and less than two minutes later, he heard why the two were arguing...F
Damian Desmond did not step back because she looked at her like that; even with those beautiful eyes filled with surprise and panic, he defiantly continued to enjoy the couple's sweetness despite her will and those luscious lips...She was his; this time, he absolutely wouldn't give her any chance to escape.Thinking of this, his kiss deepened, burning hot!Fiona Forger's small face was already as pink as a ripe apple; their whole body was surrounded by the man in her spacious chest, struggling to escape; any act of resistance could not be done, can only passively accept that kiss...It was so hard to wait until the long kiss ended; the man was still attached and on the swollen red wings, kissing once more; she gradually recovered...The handsome face became increasingly sexy because of the emotion, causing her to startle, her hands to forcefully push him, screaming out a "rogue" sound, then flustered but frantically running away; when opening the door, she
Cherry Desmond did not return, but the dinner gathering at the Desmond family's house today was actual. The Desmond family has many genera and many descendants; only the direct descendants of Mr. Desmond were also enough to fill the large dining room of the great Desmond family. On regular days, everyone is outside and has their own house and only a fixed day. Every month, everyone must return to Desmond's house to have dinner with Mr. Desmond.Before the meal, of course, everyone will report to the old grandpa about their work.In recent years Mr. Desmond almost rarely showed up to ask for the fortification, but everything was virtually impossible to pass through his eyes and ears; as long as he didn't reach the final boundary, he left the rest to his descendants to solve.So, when he reported working before this meal, he just calmly listened to the report on the progress of the new island mining project, then asked the housekeeper to serve the food, and his descenda
She did not have the heart to go with her friend to see the house tonight.Seeing that she was unhappy, Fiona Forger and Norman Desmond also understood, not bothering anymore.The two returned to Norman Desmond's apartment; Puddy Forger was still holding his tablet and playing a video game; after urging his son to sleep, Fiona Forger, because he was tired all day, also returned to his room.At this time, Norman Desmond's phone suddenly rang; he looked at the name on the screen, looked at the closed door of Fiona Forger's room, thought for a moment, and finally decided not to call her, returned to his room press the button to listen, 'I...''Why don't you come home for dinner tonight?' Damian Desmond's voice came in faintly.Tonight is a monthly family meal; so many people, but only three are missing, Alex Desmond, Norman Desmond, and Cherry Desmond. He knew the latter two were in Singapore, but their temper was still as strong as before, refusing to go home.
Jacob led Fiona Forger to Damian Desmond's office, informed her his boss was waiting, then left.The door wasn't locked, Fiona Forger gently pushed it in, but after entering, she couldn't see anyone; the whole room was tranquil, but the sound of water splashing in her ears made her know where he was, looking towards the source of the sound moving, not far away saw each layer of pool water stirring.Didn't he say he had a business he wanted to discuss with her? What about the rule that you must come here quickly? Now that you are here, the big boss is still swimming leisurely?'But who said the dominant power is in the hands of people to do?The big boss gave her an order. Did she dare not come?Glancing at the towering figure who was using skillful movements to surf the water, her eyes were a bit unable to move; this was the first time she was at such a close distance to see the swimming boss, his figure so good, such beautiful movements in the water make people's blood boil...When s
He...how could he be like that?!Ten minutes later, Damian Desmond, already well-dressed, walked out of the break room, looking a little more elite, that rugged look like a delinquent man.Pretend! Pretend to be good! Fiona Forger sat on the sofa pouting, silently defaming!Damian Desmond looked at the girl sitting right over there, walked over to the desk, picked up a piece of paper, threw it in front of her, and motioned for her to open it.Fiona Forger raised the handle and opened it...Two minutes later, she urgently looked at the man across from her...'So...so what to do?'He had just thrown at her a document proving that the Forger Corporation was not qualified to participate in the new island mining project. This project can be considered the most critical investment project of Desmond Group in the next three years; the primary purpose is to create a world-famous tourist mecca, including luxury resort villas, guests' luxury hotels, commercial centers, game parks, and other ent
Damian Desmond made an inviting pose, but Fiona Forger remained motionless, clutching the glass door with both hands, looking at him to testify, 'You mustn't speak without keeping your word!''Am I that kind of person?' The corner of his lips slightly raised, 'Come with me to finish this bottle; I'll let you go. What's the landscape like here?'Looking at the girl opposite with trembling hands holding a glass of wine as if facing a significant enemy, Damian Desmond stood up with a glass of wine, walked to the railing, turned to lean on, and took another sip before speaking.Under the night sky, the towering figure of the man standing there was poise; unlike his usual expression, he was a little seductive; his whole body exuded a lazy but seductive look that made her unable to help but relax. Beware!'So beautiful. But this is completely out of your style.' Fiona Forger took a deep breath, drawing the faint floral scent into her chest before answering.'So what do you think my style sh
This person looks like Damian Desmond! But how could he be here? Overthinking, how could he go to the bar?That man, to her, was as far away as the stars in the sky, so far away that she could only peek through the telescope.Of course, she peeked, not because she was secretly in love or something but just because the manga was watched too much; she couldn't help but lick a little how his body was...Such a man, dare not even come close, dare to love secretly?! She wouldn't admit it even if she were so far away from reality.Most importantly, he looked at her clean that year; she should look back too! Look for enough capital!'Honey, do you want to have a one-night stand with me? That kind of morning wave waving at each other...' Fiona Forger was very drunk, '...nobody wanted me anyway...'Before she could finish the following sentence, the man grabbed her non-stop babbling lips.The kiss was getting hotter and hotter, like the man had been waiting for this kiss for a long time...Fio
"What?" She opened her eyes and turned around, her clear gaze meeting his deep one."I'm sorry. And... thank you.""I love you."Between them, there was no need for words like "sorry" and "thank you.""I love you too." His words had barely finished when his warm lips sealed hers, and in his heart, he silently vowed to love her even more, erasing any lingering hurt and scars she had endured.o0oOn their wedding night, though late, it finally arrived.This was destined to be a gentle and dreamy night, a night he had been waiting for so long.He was careful and tender to the extreme when treating this girl he loved and cherished.And she, her restless heart, couldn't hide her anticipation.The water in the bathtub rippled incessantly due to their late-night intimate combination.In the warm bedroom, the curtain lightly swayed in the night breeze."Still hurting?"He held her and pityingly kissed her sweat-drenched long hair.Ember Canen shook her head, her small, blushing face brimming
"Yes." Brad reached into his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, and handed it to him."You can go back now. Please help me lock up on your way." Holding the pack of cigarettes, he pulled one out and lit it."Alright." Brad knew that, at this moment, his boss didn't want to be disturbed by anyone. The mess in the office could only be cleaned up by the cleaning staff tomorrow.He silently left, casually closing the office door behind him.Chris Desmond picked up his mobile phone, now turned off due to the earlier throw. With a cigarette in his mouth, he walked to the window and looked down at the mesmerizing night scene below. However, he had no mood to appreciate it.When the call connected, he exhaled a puff of smoke and decisively said, "Immediately arrange for someone to go to Malaysia. I want to know her exact location within two hours."They couldn't hide her away like this, preventing him from meeting her. If there were any issues or requests, they should tell him. He would d
The whole family came to the house only to leave empty-handed. In the end, everyone went their own way.Originally, Damian Desmond intended to take both mother and child home before heading to the company. However, both insisted that he go to the company, so he could only lead them along.Upon reaching the office on the top floor, Mr. Desmond went to work while Mrs. Desmond comfortably lay on the sofa reading a comic. Oh, not the 18+ type, but a parenting comic.Young Mr. Forger was sitting at the desk chatting with his father for a while, but he got bored and ran to the IT room on the 19th floor to play.The people in the IT room saw the young prince arrive and hurriedly welcomed him, offering various drinks and breakfast with care.After playing for more than two hours, young Mr. Forger finally got up lazily when the upper floor called to remind him to come to eat."Young prince, if the CEO finds out you're playing like this, we..."There would be no place to hide!But would they da
But family members, at least, should be notified, right?Speaking of family, she had yet to tell her mother. She should find an opportunity to talk to her.She reclined back onto the bed, tossing and turning for a while without being able to sleep.So, she picked up her phone again and went online. When Jacky Forger returned to the room and saw her still messing with her phone, he snatched it away and placed it on the bedside table."Go to sleep." "And you? Are you still busy?"It was almost midnight."Tomorrow, I have to go to Lyon for a trip. Do you want to come with me?"Liliana usually handled the matters over there, so now she suddenly mentioned her unsuitable physical condition as an excuse. He would still have to go there to take over the work, conveniently monitoring the ongoing projects' progress."Do you want to take me out?""If you say you want to, then sure."They were a married couple, yet he didn't have much free time for her. Their wedding had been delayed, and they di
She discreetly glanced at him and saw that he was still motionless, with an unpleasant and frightening expression on his face.If this had been in the past, seeing him like this would have made her legs tremble and unsteady. Even though they had been living together for a while, looking at him still sent shivers down her spine.Carefully approaching, she bent her back to lift the tea tray, but she heard him speak..."Come here!"These were just two simple words, yet they held a power that made others hesitate.She let out a sigh and obediently walked over. Before she even reached his side, he stood up and pulled her towards him. He used force to press her onto the sofa, and before she could react, his entire body was pressing down on her."Jacky..." Angela Zylian let out a cry. Her chin was held and turned towards him; his lips, carrying the faint scent of cigarettes, were pressed tightly against hers.She knew he was angry. From his actions, she could sense the invisible anger he was
As soon as Mrs. Robinson asked this question, Angela Zylian froze. She thought they knew the situation, but being asked like this caught her off guard. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. Ultimately, under Mrs. Robinson's scrutinizing gaze, she decided to tell the truth. "Previously, we had a... romantic relationship...""And now?" Mrs. Robinson had already guessed the answer to this question. There was nothing new here. What she wanted to know was the current status.After all, they hadn't been living together before.A couple of times, Mrs. Robinson and Liliana had been to her brother's apartment, but they had never seen any trace of a girl."Now she's my wife. Any objections?" A familiar voice replaced Angela Zylian's answer.Jacky Forger had returned home at some point. Holding a document folder and a freshly removed vest, he stood at the living room entrance. His casual gaze swept over his mother and sister. "Why didn't you let me know before coming?"When his mother ha
One of the reasons Angela Zylian came to France was because Jacky needed an assistant. However, she could look for another job if he didn't need her."Don't you like this kind of life?" He set his coffee cup down, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then leisurely asked."Not necessarily."Being at home every day, taking care of household chores, and cooking for him made her happy, but there wasn't much to do with just the two of them at home.Most of her time was spent reading books or daydreaming, which was becoming monotonous."Let's talk about work later." He stood up and proposed a different idea to her. "If you're bored, consider furthering your studies."At any rate, going to school was better than going out to find a job where she might attract unwanted attention from other men. While there were undoubtedly men at school, the situation was much simpler overall.After CEO Forger approved her plan to continue her education, Angela Zylian eagerly focused on her career.Going back
In the RoomTiffany sat on the bed, swinging her legs back and forth as she looked at her mother, then glanced at her "sister," her small mouth sealed..."Brother-in-law said he's the father, so... who is the real father, after all?""Tiffany, come here." Mrs. Canen waved her hand, and Tiffany obediently hopped off the bed and ran to her.Taking a deep breath to regulate her emotions, Mrs. Canen looked at the little girl and asked..."Tiffany, if you had another father like your brother-in-law, would you like that?"Following her thoughts, the little girl nodded."Then let's start telling the old stories..."o0oThe heavy rain in Singapore had finally stopped, but November in Paris brought continuous drizzles.Though she wasn't going to work, Angela Zylian woke up early daily to prepare breakfast for him.Their married life had officially begun, and everything else felt new apart from becoming more familiar with each other's bodies.During this period, they were trying to adapt to eac
She admitted it with her mouth, causing a sharp, intense pain to surge through his chest, a pain so fierce that it numbed his heart and soul.No wonder every time she was stimulated to the point of regaining her memory, she looked at him with so much fear, tears streaming down her face...So, this was the truth.So, that wretched, damn person was him. Like a madman, he pounded his hands on the steering wheel several times, finally burying his face in it.Why did this foolish woman forgive him? Why couldn't she open her mouth and say something to him?Why was she so foolish?"Chris, I..."She reached out to him, but the man who had buried his face in the steering wheel suddenly lifted his head, looking at her with eyes blurred by her tears, staring at that familiar face...Why?Why was it him?He got out of the car and circled to help her open the car door, wordlessly pulling her out."Wait outside for a while."Saying that, without waiting for her reaction, he got back in the car, sta
