Henry was surprised. He understood why Nickie acted that way, so he chuckled quietly; he did not care about it anyway.Maybe it was because he did not plan to deal with Nickie at all. He was just trying to shift the conversation so Sheena would not look all grumpy.When Sheena heard that, she got even more annoyed.Henry raised his hand to stop her and said, "To be honest, it might be funny for you, but it seems we work for the same company."Everyone was surprised.'Isn't Henry with the Miller Group? How did he get involved with the Neptune Group?' they thought."It turns out you're just another nobody."Why didn't you stand up to greet Chelsea in return just now?" Nickie snorted coldly.Henry felt a little helpless. He did not pay much attention to that and was about to explain.However, Penny said, "Mr.Truman is not a nobody, and that's nothing for Chelsea."Chelsea felt she had embarrassed Nickie, so she quickly said, "It's my bad. Let's not talk about it anymore. I'll fi
Penny had been with Sheena for many years. She thought Sheena was always quite reserved. Her first requirement for previous filming jobs was no physical contact with male actors. However, it seemed like she was ready to throw herself into Henry immediately.Henry felt nervous, especially when Sheena leaned in and asked intentionally. He hurriedly said, "How can that be?""I wish you were," Sheena pouted."Umm… Forget about that. I'm done eating, and I still have things to do—""No!" Sheena interrupted him."It's rare to meet you. You must spend more time with me today."After days of longing, Sheena decided to stand firm and not let go.Henry was at a loss and said helplessly, "What are you doing? I'm married.""I know. I'm not asking you to take responsibility for anything; I won't mess up your family. Okay?"Powerful men have many women around them, and you're the strongest among them." Sheena implied that she was willing to be Henry's mistress.Henry shook his head and sai
Henry smiled. He thought Chelsea was a pure and charming girl, and she was even very considerate."Hello, I didn't expect to meet you here, Ms. Sawyer," Henry said."Yeah, I didn't expect it either. But Mr. Truman, are you really an employee of Neptune Group?" Chelsea asked curiously."Of course!" Henry confirmed."I think we'll have many chances to meet in the future, Ms. Sawyer."Chelsea's face turned slightly red and said hurriedly, "That's good. But I've never seen you in the company, though.""We'll have more opportunities to meet in the future. Why are you blushing? You didn't think I was interested in you, did you?"He did not notice how easily she blushed. Unlike Cheryl, Chelsea had a different kind of shy vulnerability that made people want to take care of her."No, no!" Chelsea became even more embarrassed.In fact, she did have that thought. After all, Henry had been looking at her intently, just like other men. The only difference was that she found those other men
"We'll see!" Howie said while he snapped a photo of Henry with his phone.He then turned to Chelsea and said, "Chelsea, what I told you before still stands. If you don't comply by today, don't blame me for being rude."Then, Howie stormed off. It was easy for Howie to find out who Henry was with his surname and photo.He wanted Henry to pay a hefty price for confronting him.As Howie left, Chelsea grew anxious and said, "Why did you confront him? You won't be able to survive here if you offended him.""Are you worried that I'll drag you into this?" Henry asked."Of course not!" Chelsea denied it immediately."This has nothing to do with me. Furthermore, Mr. Bass wouldn't let me off, even if you're not here."Maybe I can't stay in this company anymore.""Why? Did that old pervert want to take advantage of you?" Henry guessed, judging by Howie's looks and his parting words.Chelsea thought the description was spot-on. She said, "You're right. Mr. Bass is a shameless old pervert
"Can you tell me more about the rumors in the company?" Henry asked curiously."Why?" Chelsea replied."Just curious!""Maybe later, since I'm leaving the company soon anyway. It's getting late now, so we should hurry up.""Alright!"They needed an access card to get into the building, but Henry did not have one and felt awkward.Chelsea looked at him suspiciously, wondering why he did not have an access card if he was really an employee."I forgot it today," he said, sounding casual."Alright, come with me."Chelsea spoke to the security guard, explaining that he was a client, and they were let in together.The building was quite new, with clean elevators. They quickly reached the 15th floor, where Neptune Group occupied the 15th and 16th floors.Henry continued to follow Chelsea to enter the office as he did not have a keycard.Chelsea did not think much of it. She somehow felt Henry was not a bad person due to his handsome appearance and generosity.As they went further
Unexpectedly, Henry continued to guide them calmly, leaving the girls feeling enlightened and gaining significant insights.They were getting more excited and realized Henry was a design genius.Chelsea was stunned by Henry's impressive design skills and quickly won everyone over."Which university did you graduate from? Where do you work? You're amazing!" one girl asked."Do you have a girlfriend? If not, what do you think of me? Don't worry, I'll take care of everything.""Me too! I'll handle all the chores and take care of the household. I can even quit my job to support you.""I can give you four kids! Five! Six!"The comments were getting more and more outrageous, making Chelsea blush.The commotion attracted Nickie, who came out and coldly asked, "What are you all doing? Don't you have work to do?"Everyone quickly scattered back to their desks, leaving Henry behind.Meanwhile, Chelsea's palms were sweating. Even though Nickie usually treated her well, she was known to
Henry laughed when he heard that and said calmly, "You're not qualified to say that. Actually, you should be welcoming me.""Who do you think you are? My patience is limited. Don't blame me for calling the police if you don't leave now." Nickie was furious.She had harbored resentment toward Henry since they first met. She took the chance to let it all out.She would not have been so restrained if her subordinates had not sided with Henry that much.Chelsea quickly said, "You shouldn't have come in without permission, Mr. Truman. Please leave now.""No, I can't leave," Henry said. He was there to assume his role as the new CEO and could not just leave.Then, Howie showed up and said, "I've been looking for you everywhere, and you're causing trouble here."Security! Take him to the police station," Howie shouted into his phone angrily.Chelsea's face paled when she heard Howie's instruction. She said, "What are you doing, Mr. Truman? Leave now!"Nickie frowned as Chelsea sudden
Howie was furious. He did not want to fire Zoey, but he had to vent his anger, so he yelled at Henry, "Security! Where the hell are the security guards?""Here, here!" After a moment, the security guards came running.Howie shouted angrily toward the security guards, "Beat him up! If you break his legs, it's on me. Then take him to the police station and say he stole our confidential designs."As soon as the security guards heard that, they immediately attacked.Chelsea was terrified. Her face turned pale with worry, but she could do nothing.Nickie looked coldly at Henry, thinking he deserved it for not listening to her.Perhaps because of all the commotion, even Leonard's secretary, Hazel Jennings, hurried over.After all, that day was the day the new CEO took office, and the company could not afford any major problems."Stop!" Hazel rushed over and quickly said, "What's going on, Mr. Bass? The new CEO is arriving today. We can't afford any mess."Howie's expression changed
