"It was an executive from a certain company. This company is planning to build a new office building, which is quite a significant project."The thing is, this project was already in preparation to be handed over to Alex. Alex has put in a lot of effort to secure this project."Alex was another architect in the company."If these photos get leaked, people will undoubtedly speculate that you resorted to unethical means to compete for the project."It will make your situation at the company even more difficult in the future," Sheldon said, expressing his concern about the potential consequences.After hearing this, Natalie felt a chill running down her spine.Who could be behind such a plot to frame her?She believed that she had no personal grievances with Ethan, who was probably just an accomplice to the mastermind."Who took you there last night?" Sheldon inquired.He needed to investigate this matter thoroughly for Natalie's sake.He had questioned the man last night, but h
Natalie withdrew her gaze, feeling anxious as she tried to explain, "Mr. Yorkshire, the photo isn't what you think! I really didn't do anything like that, I …"However, Dennis couldn't stand to listen any longer. He impatiently waved his hand, interrupting her, "Stop talking! Just pack up and leave!"We can't tolerate troublemakers like you in our company.""Mr. Yorkshire! There's a misunderstanding in this matter!"Please, give me some time. I'll investigate and prove my innocence to everyone!" Natalie pleaded with a hint of desperation.But Dennis dismissed her words, scolding, "Enough! The whole company is upset about your behavior! If we keep you, how will those hardworking employees feel?"Hurry up and go! If you don't leave, I'll call security to escort you out!"Natalie felt deeply wronged and unwilling, but facing the company's decision, what else could she do?Her honesty was perceived as mere sophistry by those unwilling to believe her. No matter how much she said, it
Henry frowned and interrupted Jennifer, "Stop talking about her. I'm so tired of hearing it!"Jennifer grinned in satisfaction at Henry's words. She wanted him to see Natalie in a bad light. This way, Henry would hate Natalie, and he would think he made the right decision to divorce her.Jennifer quickly changed the topic. She asked with a smile, "Are you free right now?""Why?" Henry asked without looking up.Jennifer leaned against his desk and looked down at him. "Didn't we agree to visit the wedding venue today?""Yes, I haven't forgotten." Henry placed the signed documents aside and capped his pen. He stood up. "Let's go."Jennifer smiled with joy and hooked her arm around Henry's.Henry had the urge to push her away and disgust even flickered in his eyes. However, he forced himself to endure it.The real show had yet to begin. All his effort would be in vain if he couldn't hold himself back now.The two walked out of the company together. Naturally, this attracted many p
Natalie couldn't be bothered to explain herself to Henry. She didn't want to waste her energy on something this futile, which was why she didn't react to Jennifer's mockery."Look at that, Henry. She was your ex-wife. Yet now ... she has fallen to such a state."Maybe you should … help her?" Jennifer turned to Henry and asked.Henry sneered at Natalie. "Why should I? Didn't she bring this upon herself?"With that, he turned to Jennifer and changed the subject. "Aren't you here to pass the invitation to a friend? Let's go.""Alright, let's go. It's scorching hot today. I feel like I'm about to be roasted alive."Jennifer immediately nodded and linked her arm with Henry's before heading toward the building.Guilt flashed across Henry's eyes as they turned around. To ensure that Henry could punish those who schemed against Natalie, he had no choice but to hurt Natalie like this.Natalie was left standing alone in front of the building.A bitter smile played on her lips. She never
The people scrutinized Natalie and whispered among themselves before quickly walking away. This aroused Natalie and Sheldon's suspicions.Sheldon was quick to notice the poster hanging on the wall. He walked toward the poster to check it out.Wasn't this a poster about Natalie's incident? Her address was even printed on it!This infuriated Sheldon, and he tore the poster apart.However, as soon as he finished tearing one, he discovered there were many more lining the walls! Moreover, these posters were in very obvious locations!Sheldon rushed over like a madman, tearing down one poster after another.Who did this? Who was this hell-bent on ruining Natalie's reputation? Why couldn't they let her live a peaceful life? He swore to find out who the mastermind was!Yet Natalie was as calm as a clam.She had thought it through. Regardless of her opponent's tricks, she would face them all head-on. She would not give up like this.Admitting defeat would be playing right into her oppo
The makeup artist decided to give the couple some space and left the room when they saw Henry walking toward Jennifer.Jennifer had never dated or had any intimate contact with a man before. So, having Henry approach her made her heart skip a beat, whether it was out of nervousness or anticipation.She slowly closed her eyes.However, Henry simply took a seat on the nearby couch. He even looked irritated.Jennifer felt a bit disappointed, but still asked with concern, "What's wrong? It's our wedding today. Why do you look so annoyed?"Henry tilted his head and stared deeply at Jennifer. "What would you do if you found out someone was plotting something behind your back?"Jennifer shrugged. "Then I'll make sure they'll end up regretting it.""What if they were aiming at the people you care about?" Henry's eyes glinted mysteriously.Jennifer felt a bit uneasy a this. She felt there was some hidden meaning behind his words.But Jennifer told herself not to overthink it. She was p
After the host delivered a warm opening speech, they started the ceremony."Next, let's put our hands together and welcome today's stars! Let's give them our most sincere blessings by giving them the biggest round of applause!"The host started to clap, and soon, thunderous applause echoed in the hall.Everyone turned their heads toward the entrance where a beautiful couple stood–Henry and Jennifer.Henry wore a dignified suit, highlighting his outstanding bearing. Beside him, Jennifer looked like someone who had just walked out of a beautiful painting.The spotlight shone behind them, making them the most dazzling figures inside the hall.Thomas was among the guests. A satisfied smile played on his lips as he saw this."My daughter is finally getting married to the person she loves. I'm sure this is a wedding she will never forget."Cliff smiled back at him. "Henry was the one who arranged the wedding. He cares a lot about Jennifer."I knew it! With how beautiful Jennifer is,
All these years, Henry had never referred to Cliff as his dad. But when Henry did, Cliff only felt shivers running down his spine.However, Henry hadn't done anything out of line, so Cliff could only force a smile despite the uneasy feeling.Thomas lowered his voice and hissed, "What is he doing?"Cliff wanted to swear at him. How the fuck would he know?Yet he found himself patiently whispering back, "Let's wait and see what happens next.""Hello, Grandpa," Jennifer politely greeted from the stage.Although the guests might be fooled by Jennifer's act, Henry was secretly sneering at her.He didn't hide his disdain. "You're not worthy to be Grandpa's grandaughter-in-law."This sentence immediately caused a commotion among the audience and they started whispering among themselves.The crowd was confused.Was Henry insulting Jennifer? But wasn't he treating Jennifer like some precious jewelry moments ago? What was with the sudden change?Cliff and Thomas sensed the seriousness
