Heather had no words as she simply stared at Tyrone, gritting her teeth. The expression on her face became more and more serious.Heather was scared. Although her face had darkened, it was still better than the cold expression she had worn earlier.A faint smile formed on Tyrone's stony expression, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. He went back to looking as unapproachable as usual. "You—"Heather's temper suddenly flared up as she roared, "What's the point, Mr. Elkin?" Ivy and Seth were shocked as they watched everything unfold before their eyes.Tyrone frowned and saw Heather stand up suddenly, looking at him icily. "I'm saying it one last time. I didn't steal your documents. If you don't believe me, you can call the police to investigate me."You think it's fun to hinder my resignation, leaving me unable to find any other work? Don't you think what you're doing is rather despicable?"Heather was so angry that she didn't care what she was saying. She simply wanted to
Once Heather was out of the restaurant, she raised her hand and hailed a cab.Before this, she had only heard about how cruel Tyrone was; now, she had seen it with her own eyes. She had wondered why he hadn't punished her, but it turned out that she had been a fool all this time. Why had she naïvely believed that Tyrone would spare a traitor like her?Now that Tyrone was stopping her from officially resigning, she wouldn't be able to survive after this. That was so brutal of him!At that moment, her phone started ringing.Heather calmed down and held up her phone, which displayed Tyrone's name. She didn't even give it a second thought before rejecting the call with a frown.Less than a second later, her phone rang again.Heather declined the call once more. Yet, her phone rang yet again. Heather became beyond annoyed as she continued to decline the calls.In the past, she hadn't wanted to cross Tyrone. That was why she had always deferred to him. However, now that they had fal
The Lamborghini stopped right in front of Heather, rendering her speechless.When the car door opened, Tyrone stepped out of the car.The handsome Tyrone was no longer wearing his suit jacket, leaving him in just his black trousers and white shirt. His attitude was so cold that others were naturally afraid of him."Sir, we have stopped her as you requested." The highest ranking member of the traffic policemen stepped forward with a smile on his face.The rest of them looked at Heather curiously. They were all wondering what her relationship with such an influential man in Royalton could be.Heather was at a complete loss for words. No wonder Tyrone hadn't been in a rush to chase after her. He had already had someone set up checkpoints on the road and had known that she wouldn't be able to escape."What's going on? Isn't he supposed to be a lecherous old man?" The driver looked at Tyrone with wide eyes."Lecherous old man?" Tyrone asked as he raised an eyebrow.The driver nodded
Tyrone parked the Lamborghini in the garage. Then, he opened the door of the back seat, only to find that Heather was already asleep.She was curled up in the backseat, her long hair a mess as she frowned deeply. She wasn't sleeping well at all.Heather was wearing a white dress, and Tyrone could see her sexy legs covered up in the white fabric.He looked at her for a moment before picking her up like a princess and walking over to the elevator.Heather was in a daze when she realized that someone was carrying her and walking off. She opened her eyes in a blur, and a familiar chandelier came into her line of view.Heather was stunned for a moment before she realized it was the chandelier in Tyrone's living room. She instantly woke up and sat up on the couch."You're awake?" Tyrone's voice came from the side.He was sitting on the other side of the couch. His shirt loosely hung on him with three of the topmost buttons undone, revealing his collarbones. He held a glass of water an
Heather refused to believe Tyrone. "Not every company's president is like you. I could always be the secretary for a woman. If you don't want me to starve, please approve of my resignation.""Last August, the president of Woody Textile gave up two of her secretaries to several foreign businessmen so that she could secure an order from overseas. "They had some unique interests, which led to one of them dying and the other being admitted into a mental health facility. Since both of them were orphans, all of this was swept under the rug."Heather was stunned. "Did that really happen?"Woody Textile was a famous company of no small size. Heather hadn't thought that something like that would have happened."Some companies will perform background checks when employing secretaries. They give priority to orphans and those from poor families. Do you want to guess why?" Tyrone's voice was icy.It was because if anything happened to an orphan, no one would bother the company. It was the sa
Tyrone's baritone voice was devoid of emotion.Heather could only look at him in shock. "If you know that Anna's the spy, why are you keeping her by your side?"Tyrone pinched Heather's cheek, enjoying the smoothness of her skin. He thought she looked quite cute when she was surprised."Anna's a small fry; she doesn't deserve much attention. Meanwhile, Sam has been doing well with Greg for the past few years, and he also controls some spies from the other branch companies. I need to keep Anna around to lure the others out."Heather suddenly realized what was happening. Anna was a spy planted to stay close to Tyrone. However, he had used this against them and turned Anna into bait.So, Tyrone knew about everything Anna wanted to do. He was simply waiting for the perfect time to spring his trap.A thought crossed Heather's mind as her eyes widened. "Wait, that means you knew that I wasn't the spy from the very beginning?""That's right.""Then, the tender—""The loss was intenti
Heather felt a chill run through her bones. Tyrone was indeed a cunning man!Tyrone lifted her chin and asked, "What are you thinking about?"Heather returned to her senses and swatted his hand away in an instant, as though she had been electrocuted. Tyrone's hand hung in mid-air as he frowned unhappily."Mr. Elkin, since you know that I'm not a spy and I am no longer of any use to you, I hope you'll approve my resignation. After this, I hope we never cross paths again!"Craig had been right about one thing—Heather needed to escape from Tyrone's side. The latter wasn't a man she could afford to provoke.It was enough that she had been used once. She didn't want to be used twice, thrice…Heather didn't realize that Tyrone had never needed to explain anything to anyone. Given his status, there was no need for him to do so.Yet, even though he had been so patient with her and explained everything, she had still concluded that she never wanted to see him again. What remained of Ty
In the evening, Heather went to work at the bar as usual.It was almost dawn when she got home after work. She lay down and slept after washing up. The sound of her phone ringing suddenly woke her up. Still in a daze, she opened her eyes groggily and looked at the phone screen to find that Caleb was the one calling. Why was he calling her so early?Heather answered the phone. "Mr. Hall, is something wrong?""Ms. Sutton, Mr. Elkin is sick and has been admitted to the hospital. Can you please come and take care of him?"Heather was shocked and asked, "What happened?""Gastric bleeding. Don't tell anyone else." Caleb's answers were short and to the point.Since Tyrone was the president of the company, if the news about him being admitted to the hospital leaked, it would make everyone start speculating. It might even affect Elkin Group's share prices.But how had he gotten gastric bleeding all of a sudden?"Is it…" Serious? Heather stopped just before she said the last word.
