Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 519
Actually, Liesel didn't mind these things. However, she was now managing the research department, and Howard was already a handful on his own. She didn't want to have to deal with another.She was already busy enough as it was recently, so she might not have the time to tame a second Howard. Not to mention, she wasn't sure how capable this person was.She sized him up. Her gaze swept over his unsettling purple hair.Yes, he was indeed a rebel. It wasn't going to be easy to handle him.Now that she had formed a preliminary judgment of him, her smile faded slightly.Thomas panicked. This time, he was completely flustered. All his arrogance from before had turned into embarrassment.Fuck, if he had known earlier that his soulmate was spearheading this department, he would have groomed himself properly! He would have dyed his hair dark and wore a black suit!"Ms. Sharp, this tattoo is just a sticker. I just thought it'd be fun to stick it on, but it'll come off after a few days!" he

All Thomas could think about was how excellent Liesel was. She had such a great character. Someone like her was perfect to become his wife.But what should he do now? How could he make sure that he could stay in Hardin Group and work alongside her?In just a few seconds, he went through an emotional rollercoaster. His emotions peaked then fell to rock bottom.Aaron kept brushing the hair on his forehead back. He said nervously, "Because you picked too few people, the HR department had to accept a few more."The other two interviewers also tried to explain."We lack too much manpower, so there was no other choice.""There's no one to clean the office, and we can't find anyone to take notes during meetings. See, Ms. Sharp, this is how much manpower we are lacking. We can lower the requirements appropriately for now and revisit them when we finally get the department up and running."New blood can always be trained. Academic background cannot speak for a candidate completely."The

Aaron's words actually did make sense.Thomas secretly let out a breath and unclenched his fists. He rubbed his hands on his knees, leaving wet sweat stains on the shiny leather material of his pants."Your last job was two years ago." Liesel regarded Thomas without a trace of a smile. "You're so young; this is the phase of your life that you should be hustling, so why is there a two-year gap in your career?"Her sharp gaze swept over his outfit. They were mostly from cheap, trendy brands. The leather on his shoes was already worn out, yet he didn't toss them. It didn't seem like he was from a well-to-do family.Despite not coming from a wealthy background, he still didn't work. It was inexcusable.He wasn't just rebellious; he was also lazy. This kind of employee would be very difficult to deal with. Liesel quietly shook her head.Thomas really wanted to wipe his face and sigh at the sky.In the past two years, he did nothing but modify motorbikes. Then, he'd invite his friend

Since Aaron had already brought this up, then Thomas could only continue the act. Otherwise, he'd give off the impression that he liked to fib, which was worse."Then, I was assigned to a different team. However, they isolated me and made me patrol the construction site alone at night."In truth, such things never happened. No one isolated him, much less bullied him. It was Thomas who one-sidedly bullied others. The only reason he went out at night was because he couldn't sleep and wanted to go on a stroll.Yet, he continued forlornly, "At the time, I never imagined that I would run into a group of troublemakers. I didn't know that some of my colleagues had made some enemies, and those people had called some villagers nearby to cause trouble."The villagers were very close-knit. Led by the perpetrator, they stormed the construction site and hurt my workers with a gardening hoe. I immediately flew into a rage and rushed over to fight them, injuring a few people. Therefore, my boss t

Thomas nodded obediently in response to Liesel's words."Also, it's your freedom to choose whether you like men or women. No one has the right to get involved."Actually, those words would have been very touching, except… Thomas really didn't like men!His mouth twitched. He could only laugh dryly, but he still felt warmth surface in his heart.Liesel was so great.After a few short questions, Liesel closed the interview with a final question. "What is your expected salary?"At Thomas' first job after graduation, he had ended up in a detention center because he was trying to save his workers. Then, after going through a criminal trial, he'd been abandoned by his peers because of his sexual orientation and lived the next two years of his life in loneliness.Knowing that he'd been through so much, Liesel wasn't going to dig deeper.She looked at the purple-haired Thomas with a gentle and soothing gaze.Thomas' heart jumped. He was both nervous and excited. Liesel was just so nic

With a pale face, Thomas planted his hand on the back of his chair and stood. With shaking knees, he forced himself to calm down before giving Liesel a deep bow. "Please give me a chance. I will work very hard!" he said lamely.Aaron and the other two interviewers reveled in his sorry state.Liesel walked around the desk and extended a hand to give him a handshake. Thomas immediately gripped her hand. He was stunned when he felt the softness of his palm."You're still young; there are plenty of opportunities out there. The research department has very high requirements, so your chances of getting hired are not high. I'd suggest you give the design department a shot. This is my name card. Take it and talk to the manager. He can find you a suitable position."After a few comforting words, she pressed a name card into his hand.Thomas' heart was bleeding. At the same time, he was lost in Liesel's gentle words of consolation and unable to escape from his infatuation. This mix of pai

What Thomas didn't see was Ethan—dressed in a black suit—pushing a wheelchair into Hardin Group. Upon catching sight of Thomas, Elijah lowered his gaze and said, "He looks familiar."Ethan immediately replied, "That's Thomas Keller, the son of Cameron Keller. It seems like Mr. Keller has his eye on Ms. Sharp and wants her to take his son under his wing."Cameron's son—that well-known rebel.Elijah remembered hearing that this person had a similar reputation to his. While he was known as Ashthorne's thug, Thomas was known as the thug of the neighboring city."Lili doesn't have time for that. Have someone turn down Mr. Keller's request."Ethan hesitated. "Mr. Keller offered an extra five percent on the new contract."How generous.Elijah's gaze darkened. "Do I need the money? Have someone turn him down.""Understood, Mr. Hardin."…After Thomas left, Aaron and the other interviewers went to the bathroom. Liesel stayed in the conference room. She was flipping through the remaini

Xavier looked like he was wondering why he was caught in their flirting. Liesel couldn't help but laugh. Elijah reached out to hold her hand. He massaged it gently. "Be good."As expected, she stopped playing around and smiled at him."Take Xavier to the research department to have a look. I saved him a room to learn and study in. It's right next to Howard's break room," Liesel said, chuckling. "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me. Of course, you can also bother Howard anytime."Naturally, she was in full support of Xavier bothering Howard.Xavier also caught the other meaning of Liesel's words, but he said nothing. Actually, she didn't have to say it. She was busy with Hardin Group's operations, and sometimes, she had to get involved in some of the projects and research, so she didn't have much free time. Only Howard was lazy and had free time on his hands."I get it."The employees in the research department were already a little demoralized because of

"You know how it is. It's always hard to strike a deal between two smart people."Charles laughed.He knew that when Liesel suggested a partnership with Ford Corporation to manufacture anti-cancer drugs, it was actually a huge trap.Liesel and Howard were both researchers. Who could say for sure that after they gave Ford Corporation the drug formula, they wouldn't refine the drug further and make something even more effective?Considering Liesel's and Howard's intelligence, there would undoubtedly be a more potent version of the drug. However, Liesel would never choose to continue working together with Ford Corporation. Therefore, he had decided to ask for a mile. He had asked to collaborate on the artificial intelligence project.It wasn't that he was being greedy.It was because Ford Corporation wasn't the same as it had been a year ago. He had to tread very carefully to avoid falling for someone's scheme again.Without Liesel and Drew, there were many tasks that only he and

"Do you not want to hug?" Liesel cocked her head at him. "Don't think I don't know you. I bet you already wanted to kiss me and hold me the moment you spotted Jacob. Otherwise, you wouldn't have tightened your arms around me."Hadn't Elijah done that to send Jacob a message that Liesel belonged to him?Having been together for so long, there wasn't anything that she didn't understand about him."In that case, thank you for giving me a chance and playing along." Since he couldn't think of an excuse, he just came clean. There was even a look of amusement on his face.He pulled her into his arms affectionately. She also hugged him back, like she was a child staking her territory."Should we add some more spice and kiss?"This was really becoming more and more provocative.Why not?A smile appeared on Elijah's face, as if he was saying to her, "Bring it on."And she did. She peppered Elijah's face with continuous pecks. Then, she yanked on his collar, like she was claiming him as

From a short distance away, Jacob could see Elijah's arm curled around Liesel's tiny waist. She seemed very dependent on him as she lay in his arms listlessly. It was a stark contrast to the way she behaved in public with other people.Whether it was with reporters or business partners, she always seemed like a steady pillar of strength. She was graceful and calm, but there was a hidden sharpness within her.Anyone who interacted with her could feel the hidden threat that was lurking inside of her.Yet, the Liesel now seemed to have shed all the sharp spikes on her body, revealing only the soft insides. She appeared gentle and submissive… Or rather, she only showed this side of her to her lover.He should have been the one to get all of this.He should have been her lover.He was the one who'd thrown all of this away. All he could do was watch as Elijah purposely pissed him off.He was a man too. Of course, he knew that Elijah was doing it on purpose.Of course, he resented Eli

Elijah seized Liesel's wrists while chuckling coldly. "So what if you're someone's wife? If I wanted you, all I'd have to do is tell him. Then, he'd definitely have someone clean you up nicely and send you straight into my bed."He lifted her chin with his finger. "Do you think that your husband is a decent man? Do you think that he'd disobey me for you?"Liesel swallowed. She was enraptured by the look in Elijah's eyes right now.He nibbled on her ear while patting her panicked and pale face. "If you're obedient, I'll treat you well. If you're unwilling to play along and make me happy, I'll kill your husband and lock you up in my home. You'll never see the light of day again."Stripping off her clothes, Liesel bit his earlobe and whispered, "It's such a waste that you didn't go into the acting industry with Chelsea."Elijah chuckled quietly, letting her hands roam all over him. They left a trail of fire in their wake. When he was all riled up and ready to go, Liesel suddenly hugg

Liesel left.Charles gazed at the still-warm cup of tea on the table. There was a chilling look in his eyes.This was one of the times he'd made the wrong move.After walking out of Charles' office, Liesel wasn't surprised to see Jacob. However, she didn't even stop and simply walked out.He trailed after her leisurely until she was nearly out of Ford Corporation. Just as he was about to call out to her, he heard a cheerful, gentle voice calling her name."Lili, I'm here to pick you up." Jacob's eyes darkened. When he looked up, he saw Elijah sitting in a wheelchair and smiling at Liesel.Liesel didn't mind at all that he was a cripple. With a grin on her face, she crouched down next to him. Then, she grabbed his hand and placed it against her cheek.Jacob's chest clenched when he saw that. It felt like arrows piercing his heart.Liesel could still feel Jacob's eyes on her, but she didn't care. She even pecked Elijah lightly on the lips in front of Jacob. Then, while pushing

"Charles, even though we worked together for three years, you still don't understand me at all."Liesel tapped her fingers against the desk. While it was quiet, it also sounded indescribably threatening."Have you not seen what happened to Dash?"If someone tries to snatch something from me, not only will I make their wishes come true, but I'll also make them pay the price."You can only take what I give you. If you insist on snatching what I'm unwilling to give… then you will find out the price you'll have to pay."She grinned, but it carried an obvious iciness.Dash was indeed the best example.He had tried to snatch collaboration opportunities from her, so she squashed him. And that wasn't all. She also bought his land and assets from him for dirt cheap.Dash tried to steal her data and establish his own vehicle manufacturing plant in Draskia, so she simply chased him and all his businesses out of Draskia.Anyone who tried to plot against her and steal from her suffered hor

"If you have something that even Jacob doesn't, you must be very loyal to him.""Thanks for the compliment." Charles chuckled quietly. "Of course, I am loyal to Mr. Ford. It's because I'm loyal to Mr. Ford that I kept the evidence just in case."If Matthew decided to betray Mr. Ford one day, then I could use this to retaliate against him. After all, you also know that Matthew is far from a nice person."Jacob placed a lot of importance on Matthew because his parents had passed away early, so he'd been raised by Matthew and Vincent since he was younger. He ended up viewing Matthew as somewhat of a father figure. His love for his family had ended up blinding him, making him unwilling to bring harm to Matthew.However, Charles was different. He didn't have any significant feelings toward Matthew. He only cared about protecting Jacob's interests.Matthew was a selfish person who only cared about his own interests. This was why Charles had gone against Jacob's orders and kept the evi

If it had been Elijah who'd done this, what would Liesel have done?Could she still be so righteous?However, Jacob's words only made her stifle a laugh. Without even turning around, she said sardonically, "If Elijah was this kind of person, then I would never have gotten together with him."Whether it comes to family or lovers, first of all, they should have the right principles. They should know what they should or shouldn't do."Even a child can tell what's right from wrong, but an adult like Matthew doesn't know where to draw the line. Jacob, one day he will pay the price for everything that he's done."In the end, Jacob didn't stop her from leaving.He couldn't help but clench his fists. His eyes darkened.Liesel had always been strongly opposed to evil. Making things worse, Drew was the scapegoat for Matthew's misdeeds this time.Over the years, Jacob had already gotten Matthew out of trouble countless times. He was getting tired of it.He really wanted to call out to Li

Natalie wanted to destroy Ford Corporation as soon as possible.Once there was a new leader in Ford Corporation, would Jacob still be so arrogant?Natalie laughed coldly. Then, she remembered the words she heard in the hospital, and her expression frosted over.She thought that since she was already in the same boat as Edward, and that Edward might become the future leader of Ford Corporation, she could go for him instead.After all, Edward was tall and handsome. In her eyes, he wasn't inferior to Jacob at all.However, she never thought… that Edward already had a lover, and that it was his sister, Ophelia, of all people.Till today, she still remembered how that bitch, Ophelia, had once insulted her because of her background. To defend Liesel, Ophelia had mocked her for being a bastard child.How come Ophelia deserved to be with Edward? They were siblings! Even if they weren't related by blood, they had still grown up as brother and sister. Weren't they afraid of getting expose
