"If you don't want to be in a bind, there is another way," said MarkusTally was left speechless. Was there a way to compromise? The notion Markus raised had an immediate invigorating effect on her. "Tell me more.""Completely sever ties with Victor."Tally was taken aback. How was this a compromise? Any glimmer of hope in her eyes was immediately extinguished.She grabbed her file. "I'll get started on working overtime."What kind of choice was that? Markus was essentially asking her to throw herself into the lion's den.Markus' expression darkened as he cursed Tally under his breath.As she walked toward the door, Markus spoke softly, "I'm doing this for your good.""Thanks, but no thanks!"For her own good? It felt more like he was throwing her to the wolves.She had been the one to initiate things with Victor, and now that the crisis at Albert Group had been resolved, was she expected to cancel her agreement and end the engagement?Everyone in Harborlean knew the Gle

Victor was surprised when he received a call from Henry, Markus' assistant. His brows furrowed as he listened to the reason for Henry's call."Now?" exclaimed Victor. "Yes, Mr. Hunt wants to see you now," said Markus. Victor checked his wristwatch. It was almost midnight, and Markus wanted to meet him right away. He turned and spotted Ultrasounds Club. "Let's meet at the café right across from Ultrasounds Club."Ultrasounds Club stood as one of the flagship assets of the Glenn family. This was where Victor held sway. Although the Glenn family appeared to run legitimate businesses, Victor was anything but conventional.He steered clear of Walter and his second brother, Edward's real estate and energy dealings. His primary operations revolved around nightclubs.He owned close to a thousand similar businesses across the country.While it might seem like these nightclubs were just for entertainment, only Victor was privy to the hidden activities that occurred behind the scenes.

"Is this enough?" Markus inquired. "I can reclaim it myself," Victor replied, placing his coffee cup down and regarding Markus with nonchalance. He acted as if the offer didn't concern him."Oh, can you? It's been six months. If you could have reclaimed it …" Markus taunted. He didn't finish his sentence, but the implication was clear enough.It had been six months since Victor lost Flourean. He had been carrying the weight of embarrassment throughout this period. Victor had made numerous attempts to regain it, but all had been in vain. Even now, he had yet to identify the person who had cost him Flourean. Flourean remained a persistent thorn in his side.Markus continued speaking without waiting for Victor's reply. "If you agree, Flourean will be in your possession by tomorrow.""Tomorrow? You're quite confident, aren't you?"He had struggled to resolve this matter over the past six months, and now Markus claimed he could resolve it overnight.Victor instinctively clenched

In the car, Victor observed how meticulously Tally had dolled herself up. He smiled and began, "Markus and I met up yesterday.""Huh? Why?" Tally was shocked.She recalled her encounter with Markus the previous night. His inhumane behavior had left her feeling more appalled than if he had been skinning someone alive.Did he really need to push someone to the brink like that? She thought she might have a heart attack just thinking about it."He wanted me to call off our engagement," Victor said."You've got to be kidding me."Why was Markus meddling in her affairs?Tally's perception of Markus had changed entirely. She hadn't yet grasped or understood why Markus acted that way. At this point, she simply felt that Markus was making a fuss over nothing.Victor let out a sigh of relief when he noticed Tally's stunned expression. He could sense what Tally was thinking. He followed her thought process and began, "He was worried you wouldn't meet your 100-million-dollar target. He w

"Mr. Glenn Senior is in his room," the butler informed Victor with a smile.Hearing this, Tally suddenly realized it was her first time visiting the elderly man, and she hadn't brought a gift.As Victor led her down the hallway toward his grandfather's room, Tally was oblivious to the butler following them. She abruptly grabbed Victor's arm. "Wait!""What's the matter?" Victor turned to her, confused."I-I forgot to bring a gift. What should I do?" Tally asked, clearly concerned.Victor frowned. "Do you really need to bring a gift?"Both of them were novices in this regard and lacked experience.Tally reminisced about how Kathryn would visit her sister's house, always bearing gifts.This marked her first visit to the Glenn family, necessitating a thoughtful gift for the elder.Her mind was exhausted from overwork, and it had slipped her mind. Victor, on the other hand, wasn't aware of such etiquette.Tally rubbed her forehead and quickly turned around.Victor grabbed her.

Now that Victor thought of it, the scarf had originally been a gift to his grandfather from a friend overseas. He had considered the design too youthful and given it to Victor. Tally had never felt this embarrassed in her life.She chuckled dryly. "Oh, is that so? I thought it would suit you when I saw it for the first time."Tally finally understood what it felt like to hang by a thread. Fortunately, the topic didn't linger for too long. Mr. Glenn Senior pulled her aside and engaged in a lengthy conversation. He praised her keen eye and encouraged Victor to appreciate her well. He was cautious with his words. Anyone could tell how anxious the Glenn family was about Victor's marriage.Victor's brothers, Walter and Edward, came back at noon. Tally felt like she was on display upon their return. However, she wondered why Victor's parents weren't present. Then, it dawned on her that Victor's parents were overseas, so they weren't able to attend.Giselle sat on Tally's right and

"He's great! Of course he is!" exclaimed Giselle. No matter how Tally interpreted it, something about how Giselle said it felt off. After conversing with his brothers, Victor emerged from the room only to overhear Giselle complaining about how he used to bully her when they were children.The other brothers had always protected her. Only Victor had bullied her. She even cried a few times because he had hit her.Tally listened intently to her rant. "Was he that mischievous as a kid?""Yeah, you have no idea! We thought he didn't know how to care for girls. Tally, you can't let him do whatever he wants. "If he ever dares to lay a finger on you, make sure you stand up to him and show him who's boss. Otherwise, he'll bully you for the rest of your life," Giselle sneered.Victor must have subjected her to significant bullying to have left such a lasting trauma in her heart.Victor's expression darkened. "Little brat, I see you've grown up. You're teaching Tally how to go against

However, Tally quickly regained her composure. She couldn't help but wonder if Markus actually thought that she had sold herself to him. However, she wasn't willing to submit to his demands at this moment. "It's outside of work hours, Mr. Hunt. I believe you don't have control over that," Tally asserted. "Tally!" Markus seethed through clenched teeth over the phone.Tally continued, "Mr. Hunt, you need to allow your employees to enjoy their weekends, even if you don't. This kind of behavior won't be sustainable in the long term. No one can endure this treatment indefinitely."It was fine for a day or two during the workweek. However, enduring this treatment in the long run was beyond anyone's physical capabilities. When employees confronted tough circumstances that offered little leeway, they tended to tap into their inner resolve and determination.Markus' voice grew more dangerous as he replied, "You better tell me where you are right now.""It's Sunday. I am where I want
