Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 508
The financial summit, which was aimed at fostering global economic development and international collaboration, concluded with Shifter Corporation and Hardin Group securing a significant number of contracts. Their success made headlines overseas.Industry insiders knew that Shifter Corporation's dominance was no surprise as it was a titan with an extensive network of international connections. But Hardin Group puzzled many.Before Elijah took the helm, Hardin Group was an old family business on the brink of collapse. Elijah reformed the company, and Liesel's leadership injected fresh talent and Howard into their research team, which brought innovation that culminated in Hardin Group's impressive performance at the summit.It was late at night when Charles studied data about the financial summit on his laptop. His usually mild expression was replaced by a cold demeanor. Slowly, he removed his glasses, revealing piercing eyes brimming with predatory intensity.Liesel was a wild card.

A man with striking purple hair was stopped at the front desk.He presented an interview letter with an expression laced with irritation. The receptionist couldn't help but stare at his face. Her ears were tinged with red.The man had deep-set eyes, a sharp nose, and an almost otherworldly handsomeness. He exuded a wild, untamed energy. His expression was a mix of arrogance and defiance. He stood well over six feet tall, with broad shoulders, a lean waist, and long legs.As he strode through the entrance, the receptionist wondered if she'd accidentally joined an entertainment agency.Even the hottest Hollywood stars couldn't hold a candle to this guy."Thomas Keller… what a nice name," she murmured under her breath as she watched his retreating figure. "Even his name sounds like it belongs to a celebrity."But instead of heading to the elevator, Thomas pushed open the door to the stairwell.Inside, his phone crackled with a sharp voice."You'd better get that job, or you're not

Liesel excused herself. As she walked down the corridor, her eyes scanned the waiting area. She didn't see Austin's face in the crowd. Perhaps he was off exploring other parts of Hardin Group.Her gaze darkened momentarily, but she quickly dismissed the thought.The interviews had begun.Thomas leaned against the wall at the far end of the hallway while chewing gum. He observed the other applicants pacing as their faces taut with worry and anticipation.Whenever their gazes landed on him, they'd frown and quickly look away. Thomas glanced down at his outfit. He could see why they would react that way.He pulled out his phone and typed a message."Old man, think I'll get the job this time?"The reply came almost instantly, "I'm betting you will."Like hell he would. He was here to bomb the interview spectacularly.Thomas chuckled under his breath. Then, he slid the phone back into his pocket.Meanwhile, Felix, Hardin Group's vice president, received a call. Whatever was said o

"Excuse me, sorry to interrupt." Gemma pushed open the meeting room door and offered an apologetic smile to the candidate who was speaking confidently."Ms. Collins, is there something you need?""Where's Ms. Sharp?""Mr. Durham needed her for something. She went to the lab. You should be able to find her there.""That's even better. Mr. Wicks, come with me. I need to discuss something with you."Gemma exhaled quietly while beckoning to him. Without Liesel present, the pressure on her shoulders lightened considerably.One of the interviewers immediately stepped out. Gemma led him to the stairwell while lowering her voice as she spoke. Her tone was filled with urgency."Listen, you absolutely cannot let Ms. Sharp find out about us pulling strings for Thomas. She despises this kind of thing. Just keep it between us three, understand?""I understand. What's Thomas' full name?" Aaron nodded repeatedly."Thomas Keller," Gemma replied."He's the one with the purple hair and the fla

The young man approaching had a warm and inviting presence, the kind that effortlessly left a good impression. The women in the live stream couldn't help but chime in."He's got such a cute smile, especially with those canine teeth." "Finally, someone who doesn't seem scared of Thomas and his bad-boy vibes.""Thomas, talk to him already. You're just standing there bored anyway." "This guy has a boyish charm."The newcomer's cheerful demeanor clearly impressed the viewers, but Thomas frowned. His sharp eyes narrowed with suspicion.Though he had plenty of friends, Thomas wasn't exactly approachable. His rebellious style made him stand out, but it also kept people at a distance. Yet, here was this stranger, casually closing the gap.Thomas remembered seeing him earlier when they collected their interview badges. At the time, the guy's expression had been no different from the rest—judgmental and full of disdain. Now, out of nowhere, he was all smiles and friendliness. He was s

The live stream chat was flooded with praises. Each viewer enthusiastically showered Thomas with compliments.Austin stood frozen in place. His face was pale and his expression was stiff."Did you misunderstand something—" he began, seemingly prepared to offer an explanation."Mr. Thomas Keller, it's your turn for the interview," someone called from across the corridor.Thomas didn't spare Austin a glance. With confident strides, he walked away while revealing a sly smile. The real fun was about to begin.Austin's expression was icy."Thomas, it's showtime! Let's go!" The live-stream audience erupted in cheers and encouragement.At the entrance to the conference room, a coat rack stood against the wall.Thomas walked in, dragged the rack further along the wall, and hung his leather jacket on it. Taking his time, he adjusted the jacket to ensure the hidden camera captured both himself and the interviewers clearly.The three interviewers exchanged glances but didn't dare to comm

Thomas didn't consider himself a troublemaker. He even took his time strolling around the room. He gave the three interviewers the full view of his tattoo."What do you think?" he asked while pointing at the ferocious dragon head etched across his chest.The three interviewers were rendered speechless.Aaron quietly covered his face with his hand. This was beyond anything he could have imagined. Did Cameron know his son was pulling stunts like this?If someone handed Thomas a weapon, they genuinely believed he would storm out and cause havoc.In the live stream, comments started flooding in."Hahaha!""You're going all out, huh? Damn! If your dad finds out, he's going to have a meltdown!""Thomas has been a rebel since day one—this is why we love him!""Give these corporate types a real show, Thomas!""You're amazing, Thomas!"Thomas continued, "My previous boss said my tattoo was ugly and used that as an excuse to fire me. Ugly? Don't they know dragons are amazing?"Wait.

"My most memorable experience? Does dressing up as a ghost to scare my boss in the middle of the night count?"Thomas even struck a dramatic pose as he spoke. He suddenly pulled out a ghost costume and slipped it on. His phone blared eerie music, and he turned off the lights in the room, creating an atmosphere that was disturbingly authentic.The three interviewers sat frozen. They were completely at a loss for words. Meanwhile, the live stream erupted in laughter. "Thomas is at it again! Hahaha!"Sliding his phone into his pocket, Thomas began backing away ominously, only to suddenly lunge toward the panel. Though they knew it was an act, they flinched as they were genuinely concerned that he might throw a punch.Aaron, who was visibly shaken, scrambled to retreat. But in the next moment, Thomas reached out and yanked off his toupee. He exposed his bare scalp for all to see.Aaron froze in mortification. His face turned a deep shade of red. The other two interviewers slapped

"I remember you saying that you thought of Ophelia as your sister, then you got together with her. Are you trying to commit incest?" Jacob said mockingly. He was cutting straight to the chase.Before Edward could respond, Jacob asked Ophelia, "Since you like CEO and brother-sister literature so much, can you swear on your life that you were imagining Edward and not me?"Of course, he had to throw snide remarks at both of them.His mouth was truly venomous.He didn't even give Edward a chance to explain before sending another blade through his heart. "Didn't you say that you would take care of Ophelia for the rest of your life? "The Ford family sent you abroad to study, but you came back only to commit incest. It seems like you didn't learn much while you were overseas. If anything, the only thing you picked up overseas was loose morals toward love."Edward's smile stiffened. "Jacob, Ophelia and I have already talked about it. We aren't related by blood, and this is between us."

When Ophelia didn't ask further, Edward rubbed her back and asked, "Are you hungry? If you want to grab a bite, shall we head to Heritage Hotel?""I want to check out the food market at Alden University, and I want you to carry me." She paused to think for a moment. "Piggybacking is also fine."It seemed like Veronica's tantrum hadn't reduced her enthusiasm for the food market. Edward was relieved that it hadn't ruined her mood."Is the food there clean? I thought Jacob said no street food." The reason he brought up Jacob's name was because he knew that he would be defenseless against Ophelia's cuteness.Jacob also happened to be the only person that Ophelia was truly afraid of.Still, Ophelia didn't take it seriously. "He's not even here. He won't know if I secretly have some."As soon as she said that, a cold voice sounded from not far away."What is it that I won't know?"The person slowly emerging from the shadows was none other than Jacob.Videos of the incident between O

Edward narrowed his eyes, sensing that something wasn't right.What could make Denzel so cautious?"Will you tell me when we get home?" Edward patted Ophelia's head. The latter leaned into his touch guiltily.Denzel massaged his forehead.Whatever. The sooner they went away, the better. He didn't want to watch them be all lovey-dovey in front of him.After they left, the janitor sanitized the office. Denzel had no more work for the night except for the discussion that he had with Jacob tonight.Just as he thought about Jacob, he called."What does your text mean? What do you mean, 'Sorry for my beloved'?"Denzel was quiet for a moment. "Have you not seen the trends on Twitter in the past two days?"Jacob was even more puzzled after he checked. Besides the news about Ophelia getting bullied by Yvonne, there was nothing else. Wasn't he already handling this matter? Or could there be something else that he didn't know about?"Are you not aware that Edward and Ophelia were trendi

Meanwhile, in the long term, Dash would be a concern. Dash had a lot of nasty tricks up his sleeve. While he might not dare to piss Liesel off now, he most likely wouldn't let Ford Corporation off the hook.Of course, Edward knew all of this.It was because he knew this that he spent such a long time abroad, hiding from Ophelia. Still, he hadn't been able to control his feelings for her. He couldn't bring himself to let go of her.He didn't have any greater aspirations in this lifetime. He only wished that he could help Ophelia reach the stars. Then, he'd stay by her side and protect her. Anything else was outside his consideration."I know the consequences." Edward gazed down at Ophelia with a gentle smile."If Ophelia didn't like me or have feelings for me, I would be willing to just stay by her side and never cross that line. However, I'm fortunate that the person I love also loves me back. "Thus, no matter what the future brings, I can handle it."I think about how brightly

Denzel sent Jacob a text that said, "Sorry about your beloved."Jacob, who was already headed to the hospital to have a discussion with Denzel, was taken aback when he read the message.What did that mean?Before Denzel could explain, the door opened. Inside, Edward was hugging Ophelia.Denzel had a strange look in his eyes. He looked like he wanted to say something but was holding back. However, Edward didn't overthink it. He merely thanked Denzel and prepared to leave the hospital with Ophelia.Upon hearing that, Denzel's smile froze. "You're welcome."For some reason, it sounded like he was seething. It even sounded a little like "fuck off".Nevertheless, Edward didn't think too much of it. However, he overheard Denzel instructing the janitor to sanitize the entire office, especially the bed and the couch.Edward was speechless. So that was why Denzel had been so hostile earlier.Despite his typically calm and refined demeanor, Edward was furious and embarrassed. "I didn't

Edward had the foresight to turn Ophelia's face toward him so that Denzel's smile was no longer directed at her.Denzel was speechless.All of Denzel's elderly patients wanted to make him their son-in-law, while the young women would secretly fall for his good looks and dream of marrying him. And that wasn't all. There had even been young men who had been so charmed by his smile that they kept asking if he was also into guys.Therefore, Edward didn't want his future fiance to even look at Denzel for a second too long. In his eyes, Denzel was a seductive devil, which was why he had the nickname "Denzel Medusa".Thus, Edward said shamelessly, "If you're done with the wound dressing, then you may leave. I want to discuss some things with Ophelia and also get some rest."Denzel wished he could cut ties with Edward and have the hospital blacklist him.He massaged the spot between his eyebrows. "This is my office."Without any hesitation, Edward asked, "Aren't you single?"In this

"It's my fault. I'll definitely pay attention next time." Edward felt very guilty and sorry."So you want me to get hurt again?" Ophelia tugged on the silver chain around Edward's neck. Her eyes twinkled.She had bought this necklace for him when she was younger. She remembered that it had come with an oval locket, inside which she had inserted a photo of her getting hugged by him on her own accord.She couldn't really remember what the photo looked like anymore, but she had a rough idea. She had picked the photo that she thought she looked the best in.At the time, she had still been really young, but she had been inspired by a television show. She thought that by giving a family member or a lover a gift, they would always think of her whenever they looked at it.Kids were always naive like that. She thought that since he would think of her when he saw her gift anyway, she might as well put a picture of herself inside.Thus, the young Ophelia had picked out a silver necklace and

As if she could sense something, Ophelia looked up. Her indifferent gaze suddenly lit up, and her eyes curved as she smiled.Edward's throat tightened. At this moment, he didn't know whether to feel frustration or heartache.He had been a little late, and Ophelia had ended up getting bullied by a crazy old woman.Edward walked to her side and squeezed her hand gently. Ophelia had no intention of wasting her breath on Veronica. She was waiting for Edward to come and handle her.She pointed at Veronica and said straightforwardly, "She's bullying me."Without a second thought, she continued, "She accused me of bullying her daughter, Yvonne, which is why she came to stir up trouble."Edward frowned. The Ford family didn't have much of a partnership with the Zima family, and Edward had spent a few years studying abroad. The older generation never got to see him much, so Veronica naturally didn't recognize Edward as Matthew's adopted son.Thus, she just assumed that he was another For

"I'm not interested in getting revenge on a celebrity I used to be a fan of. If your daughter received any retribution, it's only because even God couldn't let it continue."If you have so much free time, it would benefit you more to come to church with me instead."Ophelia was about to walk off when Veronica leaped forward. She held onto Ophelia's leg again and refused to allow her to leave. "No, you can't walk away! Yvonne said that she doesn't have a future in the industry anymore after making you angry."You have to forgive her! Aren't you a fan? You can't just stop supporting her. You have to keep liking her. As the daughter of the Ford family, you can give her more opportunities, and she will definitely be able to rise again!" Veronica roared maniacally.Ophelia let out an exasperated chuckle. All of a sudden, she felt like the entire Zima family was full of lunatics.Unable to hold back anymore, she said angrily, "Yvonne has committed a crime. Do you think I'm moronic enoug
