"Why is it like that?" Fiona Forger asked, her mouth agape.Indeed, she hadn't had time to keep up with the news these past few days, so she had no idea about such an important matter. It wasn't that she didn't watch the news, but more accurately, she was being squeezed dry by the great boss next to her. She had no energy and no time to watch anything.The man placed a hand over her mouth and said, "You don't need to worry too much about other people's matters. Is Puddy still mad at me?" The topic shifted to their son, diverting her attention from the question she had intended to ask about Damian's parents' divorce."Don't give it such a stern and fierce look next time. Even if our child is wrong, they are still a child and will be scared." She pleaded on behalf of their son."Did someone intentionally lead them astray for so many years?" Thinking of this, she still felt a little uneasy.Did he want to settle the score with her now? Miss Forger shuddered. "No one did it on purpose.""
Even if she couldn't become Damian Desmond's wife in this lifetime, she could still become his stepmother. Isn't that an exciting thing?Lying on the bed, the girl smiled weakly, her decision already made. Using the child to exchange for what she wanted, it was worth it!o0oAt 7 a.m., after finishing his morning swim, Damian Desmond returned to the villa. It was still quiet, indicating that his little piglet was asleep, but that little brat... Who knows where he was?As he was thinking about it, he saw Puddy Forger carrying a dog from the second floor. As Damian Desmond raised his head, he caught sight of the little boy, and their eyes met in mid-air...Puddy Forger didn't avoid his gaze. Under his observation, he walked downstairs. As he passed by Damian Desmond, the man spoke first."Still mad at Dad?" The imposing man relaxed and straightened himself up. He wasn't just a kid, after all. The necessary rituals would be taught to him gradually.Why bother with a brat? Even if he didn
Education ended, and initially, everyone thought the three would go upstairs. However, Mr. Olivia Forger unexpectedly took the initiative to approach Puddy Forger, stooping down and looking at the boy gently, "Shall we take him out to play for a bit?"Mrs. Olivia Forger found his demeanor at this moment utterly different from his harsh tone when scolding his daughter earlier, which was somewhat amusing. She stood up and said, "Puddy, many people are taking their dogs for a walk outside the small park. Would you like to take Xu there to find a playmate?""Many people are taking their dogs for a walk out there?" Puddy's eyes immediately lit up."Yes, there are." Both grandparents nodded."In that case, let's go out for a walk." Puddy hugged Xu and walked ahead, with Taylor Forger following behind.In reality, Puddy wasn't interested in finding a playmate for Xu but instead selecting a mate for him."Fiona, why were you so impolite to Miss Bonet earlier?"Now that only two of them were l
In an apartment somewhere...Wilma Bonet opened the door, threw her keys and purse onto the sofa, and walked into the dining room where Aboli Brian was carrying the last plate of food."Smells delicious; I'm starving to death," Wilma Bonet reached out to grab a piece, but Aboli Brian skillfully avoided it. "Go wash your hands and bring two bowls of rice here."Wilma Bonet pouted and walked into the kitchen.The dining table was set with four dishes, obviously too much for the two of them. The sisters ate and talked."I went to the Forger's house today," Wilma Bonet calmly said after finishing her bowl of soup."So soon?" Aboli Brian stopped her actions upon hearing her sister's words."Just to deliver some documents.""And you thought I was officially visiting. How does it feel?""A luxury villa in Sentosa, what do you think?""Do you feel uncomfortable inside?""If it were you, would you feel comfortable?""That's why we're back here." Aboli Brian shrugged."I saw that fool's son tod
As for the previous rumors about the romantic relationship between Miss Forger, CEO Desmond, and CEO Hale, it's been boiling. Why does CEO Hale keep staring at Miss Forger? Hasn't their past relationship ended yet?But Miss Forger only glanced at CEO Hale and immediately averted her gaze. Is she afraid that CEO Desmond will get angry?As for Louis Richart and Loona Richart, the two brothers from the Richart Group didn't react and were focused solely on their laptops.In reality, Loona Richart's calmness was only superficial, as internally, she was boiling with anger.Today's meeting was originally one that her grandfather didn't allow her to attend. Still, she pleaded with her eldest brother Louis Richart for a long time, promising to study alongside him without saying a word. Unable to withstand her persistent clinging, Louis Richart finally agreed to let her come along.Under everyone's gaze, it was believed that she wouldn't accomplish anything. As an older brother, he naturally ho
Upon hearing that, the boss fell silent, and she believed that his indulgence towards her could be considered love during this time. If not love, then what else could it be? Could it be that she didn't feel anything at all? This heartless person treated her well, but it was all for nothing."That's how it is!" Seeing the boss's expressionless face and silence, Miss Forger felt uneasy and bowed her head.In reality, he didn't force her to do anything during this time, not even mentioning marriage. However, due to the sudden turn of events and to provide an answer to both families and outsiders, he agreed to the proposal of getting engaged first.He wasn't like six years ago when a word of marriage wouldn't allow anyone to object. He slowly followed her lead, allowing her to get accustomed to his work, life, and, most importantly, existence.She had always been relatively casual and indifferent, but she also noticed the changes in his behavior toward her. She had never truly experienced
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
