Fiona's heart suddenly trembled. She was completely exposed. What nonsense was Darwin still uttering? Wasn't he the proudest person? "Don't look at me like that." Darwin kissed her lips softly. Fiona turned her head in disgust. He wasn't furious either. "Secretary Woods, you're not alone," Darwin said calmly. "Your friend Ashton..." "Darwin!" Fiona exclaimed. Darwin laughed, "It seems I spoke incorrectly, your good friend Ashton." "Don't touch her!" Fiona pushed Darwin forcefully, her voice filled with urgency. "Be obedient, and I won't hurt anyone," Darwin grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his embrace, his tone surprisingly gentle. But to Fiona, it sounded like a thousand venomous snakes crawling over her body, chilling her to the bone. "And there's that Dagmar..." "The little programming kid..." "Your grandmother's nurse... this lady is quite interesting, she can solve a bunch of problems, enough to drive someone crazy." "Oh, and Solomons is going to invest in Teodora babe, s
On this journey.Fiona had also made up her mind. If she stayed, she would stay. But it was impossible for her to continue playing the role of a weak person.And so...Not long after the meeting began.The other side had set a trap.Fiona raised her eyes and mercilessly interrupted, exposing their scheme.“Director Longway,"Don't show us the fake financial reports you use to deceive others. It lacks sincerity, and cooperation is unlikely." The meeting room fell into silence. Director Longway was the first to frown and said, "Secretary Woods, what are you talking about?" Director Longway and Fiona had met a few times before. Previously, she had always been with Darwin, organizing and distributing materials, and taking meeting minutes. She had never spoken in meetings. Everyone knew about Fiona's relationship with Darwin. In private, Director Longway had often made fun of Fiona, saying that she was just like a water bottle, always there to quench Darwin's thirst. He mocked her disdai
Fiona was truly exhausted.Both physically and mentally.She knew that it would be useless to argue with Darwin any further.The fact that he agreed not to do that was already a relief for her.She simply let him be.The hotel’s large and comfortable bed.Fiona was in Darwin's arms, and soon after, she fell asleep.In a half-dreamy state, she felt Darwin’s gentle and soft kisses on her cheeks and ears.In a daze. It seemed like he was still saying..."I shouldn't have lost my temper at the cemetery and said those things. Can you forgive me?""I was wrong for treating you badly in the past, Fiona, from now on, I'll treat you well..."Fiona's heart tingled. She thought it must be a dream, right?How could Darwin...Really apologize to her, how could I be afraid of hurting her feelings? And how could he make promises for the future. Fiona will always remember. When she was with Darwin, he said those words frankly."Don't think there is a future between us, you are just a substitute for Li
Fiona: "..."Who allowed her to have a weakness controlled by someone else?Darwin was shirtless. He had always had good eating habits and exercised regularly. So his figure was excellent.Fiona had been infatuated for a while... alright, not just for a while, she had been infatuated until she found out that Darwin was getting married.Two years ago.Wyatt had a companion who was an old hand in the nightclub scene. She liked to hang out with Fiona. One time, she mysteriously said she wanted to show Fiona something good. She opened her private photo album on her phone. And showed dozens of men in various colored boxer briefs."These are all muscular men at the newly opened club," she said mysteriously to Fiona, "While Darwin is away on a business trip, why don't we go have some fun together?"Fiona looked at each of those men one by one. She had no interest at all. It's not that she was unworldly, but these professional players were nowhere near as attractive as Darwin in terms of loo
Fiona's anger from yesterday subsided. She had already organized the project information for Darwin before. Darwin was very interested. There was no problem with profitability. It's just a matter of how much profit."Let's get straight to the point." Fiona said calmly, "Regarding your financial report for the past six months, I have a rough idea. In simple terms, it's a loss.""Secretary Woods, this has nothing to do with our company's overall strength. Last year, another department took on a bad project, which resulted in a disastrous start to the year. The financial report was affected by this incident!" Director Longway quickly explained.The others chimed in as well."That's right, Secretary Woods. You can take a look at our other projects, they have all been profitable...""Great job!""Yeah, otherwise Mr. Solomon wouldn't consider working with us!"Everyone chimed in.Darwin remained silent. He just watched Fiona, waiting for her to speak."In the rapidly changing industry nowa
Everyone knew who Thalia's cousin was.With her sarcastic remark, the amount of information conveyed was truly shocking!"Substitute? What substitute?""This outfit of Secretary Woods' is indeed expensive. Just the pair of pearl earrings alone costs six figures!""Wow, a professional career woman? More like an ambitious woman!""That's right, if it weren't for Mr. Solomon, what kind of air could she put on?""Mr. Solomon is already engaged, so why does she cling to him... how shameless!"Fiona glanced at the people behind her.Many of them had just complimented her earlier.The gossipy ones immediately lowered their heads and pretended to be busy."Secretary Woods is quite formidable," Thalia sneered."Ms. Klein, Mr. Solomon's wedding is imminent. You better watch your mouth and stop spreading rumors everywhere. If Miss Ross hears about it and it affects the Ross family's alliance with the Solomons... be careful, or you'll be skinned alive."Fiona abandoned her previous submissive dem
Winter came unusually early in Bay City this year. When Fiona went to New Port, she only wore a thin coat. When she came back, she was standing at the crowded exit.Hathaway, beautiful and aristocratic, stood there, attracting many people's attention. Some recognized her. "Isn't she the heiress to the big conglomerate, the one who is engaged to the Solomons' heir?" "It's her! She's so stunning in person!" "Why is she at the airport so late?" "Obviously, to pick up her fiancé, look over there..." Darwin's face didn't look good. He instinctively looked at Fiona. Seeing her pale face, he felt anxious and annoyed. "I didn't know she was coming," Darwin whispered. "Isn't it normal for her to come to pick up her fiancé?" Fiona's tone was flat. "Mr. Solomon, you should go over there quickly. People have already recognized you. Don't let those with ill intentions take bad photos and make a big fuss." Darwin's face was as cold as ice. But he still walked in that direction. Fiona lowered
"How could I not recognize you."Rupert Wells was still the same as before, wearing silver-framed glasses, gentle and elegant like a spring breeze.But he looked more sturdy now, and his features had matured."Fiona, it's been a long time," he gazed at Fiona with a warm and gentle smile."Sir, it's been a while," Fiona responded softly."If you don't ask me, how would I have contacted you, Sir?" Ashton emphasized the word "sir," teasingly provoking.Fiona got to know Rupert Wells because of a physics tutoring class during the summer break.Ashton and Fiona attended the class together. In their teenage years, besides studying, they didn't have many worries, and the blossoming of youth added to it. The two of them slept together late at night. They loved discussing matters of the heart. I don't know how, but I firmly believe that Fiona and Rupert Wells have something going on. Until now, this obsession hasn't faded away. Even when choosing her princess, she didn't forget to include Rup
