"Isn't it good to do it in the office? It's a different experience."Henry smiled and turned around. He then pressed Lydia onto the desk. His hand went down her body, and he penetrated her.Ah!Lydia groaned. Her body trembled involuntarily. She felt completely out of control, deeply immersed in the process.They did not know that Becky was blushing as she stood outside the door. Her face was red, and her heart pounded.'How bold is Ms. Miller? Why would she do that kind of thing in the office?'Mr. Truman is amazing, too. They've been going at it for so long, and it's not over yet. If I can do it with him, I'll faint from excitement.'No, no, how can I think that?'Becky did not mean to eavesdrop. She was there to get Lydia's signature.However, Henry was handsome and domineering. Her heart would race, and she would feel inexplicably nervous whenever she saw him.After a moment, Lydia quickly gathered herself, blushing. She felt much easier, and the feeling of irritation ear
"Another way? What do you mean?""For example..." Henry pointed at Lydia.Lydia finally understood. She blushed with shame, then said angrily, "You're terrible.""There's nothing I can do about it." Henry was helpless."We can't do it here.""What?"Henry was only joking with her and was teasing her.After all, he could see that Lydia was under tremendous pressure. He even felt that Lydia should not have gone to Sky Avenue Group.Lydia looked challenged. However, for the sake of Henry's health, she gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go to the washroom. No one should be there now."An hour later, Lydia glared at Henry fiercely.She did not know what was wrong with her. She thought she had completely lost her mind; she must have thrown all her common sense out the window. She just did everything Henry wanted.Did she feel guilty for not being able to satisfy him?Henry did not expect that as well. Lydia had excellent academic qualifications and knowledge. However, she had no
Lydia walked forward, pretending as if nothing had happened. However, she did not know Henry could hear her entire conversation."Done?" Henry asked with a smile."Yes.""There's something I wanted to ask you. Lydia, are you happy working at the Sky Avenue Group?" Henry asked.Lydia was startled. What did he mean?She replied, "It's alright.""Alright? I don't think you're very happy. At least not as happy as you were at the Miller Group, right?""Well, yes." Lydia could not hide her feelings in front of Henry."Have you ever thought about why that is?"Lydia was silent."I don't know if you've thought about it. I thought about it just now. The most important reason is that you view the Sky Avenue Group as my mother's or my company."You have too much burden. You're afraid that the group will lose money if you do something wrong, and we will be unhappy. Am I right?" Henry asked further.Lydia nodded. Henry's words touched her heart. She would not have accepted Anna's invita
Henry did not expect any return; he did not care about the money. However, it was obvious that Lydia wanted to talk about it, so he naturally had to go along with her.Lydia wanted to show that the investment was reliable.She had engaged experts to perform detailed reviews. The outcome would be incredible once the Akemi Tech Corporation succeeded in battery development. The battery's charging speed would be amazing, and its durability was also high and extremely safe.There were simply no negative points about the battery.However, they still faced some problems that were difficult to break through. There was not much hope for the time being.However, Jensen's enthusiasm and confidence gave Lydia faith. She knew Jensen was a serious researcher. He would not say something that he could not achieve. Since he said it would take at most one year, he would definitely be able to deliver it.She believed in him. If Jennifer had not kept Lydia's money, Lydia would have invested in the b
Anna was stunned as she said, "Unhappy? Why?"Lydia was anxious. She tried her best to perform well, but Henry had destroyed it. Anna must be upset with her.She could only hint to Henry to stop talking nonsense. After all, no one liked people who only knew how to complain but not solve problems.Henry did not seem to notice her as he said, "Two reasons. Firstly, the company is yours, it's too restrictive. Secondly, it's still because the company is yours; she can't make decisions freely."Lydia nearly went crazy when she heard what Henry said. She wanted to grab the phone.However, Anna was an intelligent person. She understood the reasons as soon as she heard Henry's words. Lydia feared that Anna would be dissatisfied with her performance and felt constrained.It was also probable that the senior managers had some opinions about Lydia. Otherwise, Henry would not have said Lydia could not make the decisions.However, the more that happened, the more Anna admired Lydia. Any ordi
"Really? Do you remember what I told you earlier? No matter what Lydia asked for, you must do it?""That project will likely cause the company to lose millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.""Hundreds of millions? Do you think I can't afford to lose a few hundred million?" Anna asked angrily."Of course not! That amount is nothing to you." Allan's expression looked horrible."It's good you understand that. Besides, do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Are you afraid Lydia will take your position as the CEO?"Anna said coldly, "Well, you don't need to worry about that."There was no need for him to worry about that?Allan was delighted. It seemed Lydia would not be able to take over his position after all. Otherwise, why would Anna say that?"If Lydia wanted the CEO position, it would've already been hers."What?How could that be? Allan was stunned."I don't need to hide anything now. Lydia is my future daughter-in-law, and my assets will be hers eventually.
Lydia hung up the call. She was a little lost and unable to gather her thoughts.She felt that Anna was too nice to her; she was spoiling her.Henry almost scared her to death earlier. Lydia said unhappily, "Don't do that again. You almost scared me to my death.""What's there to be afraid of? You think too much."Henry smiled gently and said, "Don't you think my mother is kind to you? The more relaxed you are, the happier she'll be."Lydia was stunned. She agreed with Henry as she remembered the situation earlier. She asked, "Really?""Of course, because that's how you truly are," Henry said.Lydia finally understood it.A family should be open and honest to each other and speak candidly.It was tiring having to pretend when one was out in the world. It was too much if one needed to worry further at home.After figuring that out, Lydia felt much more relaxed and comfortable. She was often unhappy when she was with the Millers.She was happiest when she was working. She had
That was a rather wishful thought. However, Wilfred said, "If you're busy, Mr. Truman, I can manage it for you.""You?""Yes, yes. I know the company well. I used to help Mr. Hood with handling the company's business," Wilfred said nervously.Wilfred could follow Vito mainly because he had great socializing and interpersonal skills. Vito still decided most of the important things."If that's the case, you can manage the company in the interim. If you do it well, you can officially take over," Henry said.Usually, for large companies, there would be board meetings, elections, and other events. However, for the Hood Group, the shares owned by the Hood family were substantial; it was a family business.To put it bluntly, it was entirely up to the Hood family, who would be the executive chairman, and what the company's directions were.Of course, Henry was the new owner of the Hood Group."Yes, sure. I'll manage the company wholeheartedly," Wilfred said excitedly. He had never thou
