Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 527
Liesel could feel Howard's attacks getting weaker. She quickly wrote another program, and in the next second, the door to Howard's break room opened.How come Howard had let her break through his firewall so quickly?No matter how she looked at it, he wasn't that understanding of a person.Cocking an eyebrow, she saw that Xavier had shut down Howard's computer.Exactly. The room that Liesel had arranged for Xavier was right next door to Howard's, so he'd just entered through the window.Howard was sitting on the couch with a cigarette hanging from his mouth, looking rough around the edges. He didn't seem anxious nor mad. He simply spat the unlit cigarette into the trash can at the side."So, why did you go through all that trouble to look for me?" he asked while rubbing his eyes. He did look rather tired, with dark circles lurking beneath his eyes."Xavier is planning to join the research department. Take him under your wing.""Oh, has he thought it through?" Howard's eyes lit

"You must be Elijah," Howard said leisurely.Before Elijah could say anything, Liesel's expression turned chilly. Looking down, she said coolly, "He is my fiance. He's the one I'm going to be spending the rest of my life with.""I didn't say anything." Howard shrugged lazily."You'd better not say anything in the future." Liesel regarded Howard. "He is the person I chose. No one can make any decisions for me. He's the only one that I'll love."Who was she implying?It was Heather.Howard caught onto that. His gaze darkened slightly, but he still kept up his uncaring facade. "That's your business. It has nothing to do with me.""Liesel, it's my fault," Xavier couldn't help but say. His voice was slightly hoarse.Actually, he still hadn't moved on from the nightmarish car accident the other day.To Xavier, there was nothing wrong with Elijah. The latter loved Liesel enough to give her everything. As a man himself, he knew that Liesel was all Elijah cared about and that he would

"People always say that family doesn't mean much when you're gravely ill. And that's not all. They're not even related by blood. They're just lovers.""If it were me… those assets might keep me happy for a while, but I don't think I could really accept taking care of him for the rest of my life."The researchers murmured amongst themselves. They thought that they were being quiet. However, Liesel and Elijah could actually hear every single word.Elijah's face remained calm, but his hand slowly tightened on the armrests.Liesel's grip also tightened.She couldn't bear to listen to this.She turned around, and her gaze was razor-sharp. "All of you, hand in your resignation letters to the HR department. Hardin Group will compensate you accordingly."Hardin Group didn't need these people.The employees exchanged glances. The leader of the group flushed. "Ms. Sharp, we—we didn't do anything wrong though…"They would be crazy to take a few months' worth of severance pay and leave Ha

When it came to writing reports, data analysis, and sorting documents, Austin completed all of it on his own. He was quick and delivered good work. Even with a workload that other employees couldn't even finish working overtime, he was always able to submit on time.As if to build relationships, he would always work overtime every day and help others with work.After half a month, he'd already blended in with everyone else. Everyone greeted him with a warm smile when they saw him, and they never ran out of praise for him.This made Liesel think back to her school days when she had been equally as stupid.In high school, she had done the same thing. She would always help people with the work that they couldn't finish, thinking that it was the best way to grow closer to others and become one of them.However, she was wrong.No matter how much labor an old ox did, it would never integrate into human society.Also, at the time, she had gone to a high school for the wealthy, while

It was hard to describe Liesel's radiant beauty, making it hard for anyone to resist her. Men and women alike stole a few more glances whenever they walked past her. Thomas Keller abruptly came to his senses and asked his companion to push the cart. "You can take this."His companion noticed Thomas' flushed face and understood instantly. He began teasing Thomas. "What? Not brave enough to walk past her? If you won't do it, I will."Thomas patted his sweaty palms against his blue uniform before adjusting the brim of his cap. He fixed his gaze in Liesel's direction.He stood rooted to the same spot and dared not to move. He was afraid that he might startle Liesel, who wasn't far away.Thomas' two companions teased him a while longer before wheeling the large boxes away. Initially, the two men were having a jolly time together, chatting and laughing. Yet they lowered their heads and stopped talking. They walked past Liesel in silence. Liesel took a few steps back. She stared at a

Liesel's frown faded away, and she looked at Thomas gently. "Before leaving the research department that day, I noticed that the logistics department was hiring. It doesn't matter what I do as long as it's a job. That's why I went for the interview," Thomas explained.Thomas couldn't tell Liesel that his father, Cameron Keller, had arranged for that job as a punishment for him. As long as Thomas could see Liesel daily, he was willing to take on any job. It didn't matter, even if he had to work as a laborer, food delivery driver, or security guard.Thomas, whose heart was beating like mad, remarked awkwardly. "My job at the logistics department is quite lucrative. I get about three thousand dollars a month."Thomas vowed to give up his salary every month to Liesel in the future. As he looked up, his sly gaze had turned innocent. The corners of her lips lifted, and Liesel couldn't help but chuckle. She always remained alert whenever she worked with those old codgers at Hardin Grou

All of Thomas' messy thoughts faded away. Instead, his heartbeat began racing like mad. The elevator space was so narrow. He couldn't help but touch his chest, fearing that Liesel could hear his pounding heartbeat."Got it, Ms. Sharp. I'll work hard," Thomas replied earnestly. He was willing to do anything for Liesel.Liesel scrutinized Thomas for a moment before smiling in relief. She knew how it felt to be stuck in a tough situation. She always couldn't help but give a chance to those struggling and lend them a hand."I asked you to learn a few things about logistics because I want you to know that you should always advance in your career. Never give up if there's something you're better at."The freight elevator doors slid open, and Liesel wheeled the cart inside the elevator. Thomas hurriedly trailed after her while paying attention to her words.If Cameron knew how obedient Thomas was out there, he would definitely cry tears of relief. "Save up some money first and settle

Thomas hurriedly nodded, and his ears had turned red. Liesel considered everything for him. She really was amazing, and that made him like her even more. There was a fork ahead of them. Thomas, who had been secretly joyful, froze instantly. As Liesel stopped, she suddenly felt like she had meddled too much. Some liked to work hard and achieve success, while others preferred to go with the flow. Everyone had their own ways of living. Liesel was being ridiculous by planning Thomas' life with her own ideas."Sorry, I always like making plans. All I can think of is getting promotions and higher pay." Liesel massaged her temples as she smiled helplessly. "You can do whatever you want. I'm just giving you a suggestion.""I know. Thank you, Ms. Sharp." Thomas gripped the cart handles tightly. Liesel's suggestion was fantastic, but Thomas couldn't see her if he went to work in the workshop. He might as well continue working as a laborer.There were two different routes ahead, and th

How could Yvonne say that her fans were for her to exploit? That was one way to drive her fans away completely. They weren't pathetic for wanting to idolize someone.Yvonne's remaining fans tagged her on Twitter to demand answers, but she dared not respond at all. A few of her die-hard fans were left dismayed and completely disappointed in her. This prompted them to announce their departure from the fandom. Meanwhile, her remaining fans were clueless and couldn't make much impact.The video exposing Yvonne's true colors triggered a new trend "A Discussion About The Relationship Between Idols And Their Fans". Many inevitably brought up Chelsea, and Damian's fans chimed in that he was even more gentle and considerate. He even beat up a worker for stalking his fans, and that revelation earned Damian more fans.The fiasco this time had caused a wave of discussion about fans in the entertainment industry. Fans were made aware of their status so they would understand that they weren't

"I don't believe idols are superior to their fans. We're equals—our bond is mutual. We're responsible for accompanying each other and growing together."Chelsea popped a signed photograph into a paper bag and handed it to her loyal fan next to her. She continued, "Some became my fans because of my looks and performance. "All these are definitely important, but I hope they continue being my fans in the future because of my character and excellent talents."I hope my fans will notice my efforts, and they'll do the same as I did—walk toward the future with determination. The fans' support and admiration will give me more confidence, and my hard work will also inspire my fans to be better."Chelsea confidently walked away from the crowd to Ophelia and took out a wet wipe to dry the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Becoming a fan doesn't mean you should exhaust yourself. "Idolizing others is also a great way to improve yourself. An idol is like a guiding light. If she doesn't hel

While Ophelia had been quite harsh, her eyes turned red as soon as she spun on her heel. She had been Yvonne's fan for so many years and idolized her. It wasn't easy for Ophelia to simply dislike her right away.But Ophelia knew that she would really be a fool if she continued looking up to Yvonne. The snippet of the exchange ended there. After that, Ophelia and the others left the backstage area with reddened eyes. It was crowded outside the performance venue. Many held red LED boards, and some even held Chelsea's fan merchandise. One glance at them told Ophelia that they were Chelsians.While it seemed crowded, everyone was actually standing in two lines in an orderly fashion. Chelsea cheerfully handed out small gift bags to her fans. Afraid that Chelsea might exhaust herself, some fans took the initiative to help her hand out the bags. Others obediently distributed hot bubble tea Chelsea had bought as well. Since the weather was getting colder, she was worried that the fans wo

A twisted expression crossed Yvonne's face. "Your love for me has always been superficial! You supported me because of my looks!"Once better and prettier idols debut, you'll immediately switch sides and support them! Why should I give back so much to fans like you?"Yvonne pointed at the door. "Look how many people have shown support for Chelsea after she debuted? How many of my fans have turned into Chelsians and how many of them even started insulting me online?"Your support has always been ridiculous and superficial! What's wrong with me for taking advantage of people like you? "Fans who stan idols have always been childish and ridiculous! Serve all of you right for being so useless! Those in their right minds would never keep up with any idols!""Have you gone mad?" Ophelia couldn't help but push Yvonne aside. Ophelia couldn't believe that Yvonne, whom she had admired for so many years, had uttered such unkind words. Ophelia threw the LED board to the ground. The utter fo

The paparazzo burst into laughter. He held his stomach as he rolled on the couch in glee. "Oh, wow! You still invited your fans here in your current situation. They're really your diehard fans."A vein throbbed on Yvonne's forehead. She couldn't help but hiss under her breath. "Aren't you my fans? Since you are, you should be on my side and continue helping me!""We might be fans, but does that mean you can treat us as fools?"While Ophelia's eyes had gone red, she did not hold back as she lashed out at Yvonne. "You already knew that we're just useless female students. Why did you even message us privately and invite us to the performance venue?"We worried about you. We showed up with light sticks and gifts, just hoping to let you know we were still here and that we still had your back. "And what did you do? What are fans to you, Yvonne? Are we even people in your eyes? Or are we just tools—things you can use and toss aside whenever you feel like it?"Yvonne froze. Meanwhile, t

Yvonne opened the door and was startled by the sight of Ophelia and her friends. She patted her chest. "When did you guys arrive? Don't you know how to knock on the door?"Ophelia and her two friends stared at Yvonne with reddened eyes and did not respond. Yvonne recalled the public's opinions toward her as well as the online criticism toward her fans. Their expressions made Yvonne feel rather sympathetic toward them. Since their eyes had turned red, she believed they must have cried out of exasperation after learning that Yvonne was being bullied in the group. They really did seem to be her true fans. "Come in." Yvonne gestured with her chin. After the three entered the lounge, Yvonne handed them three bottles of juice. "Have something to drink for now. I'll take you out for a bite later."Ophelia held the bottle of juice but did not drink it. Finally, Yvonne noticed that each of them was holding a cat doll. "Are you giving me these cat dolls as presents?"The three did not say

Yvonne's chest ached, making it hard for her to breathe. The words Ophelia once said had left her feeling extremely miserable. Yvonne sat at the table and sobbed."Chelsea became what others have always dreamed to be because she didn't need any persona. She always shone the brightest on stage. Chelsea can lead her fans into a brighter future, and you'll only lead us into darkness and nightmares."Those were Ophelia's last words before leaving. Until now, her words haunted Yvonne like a relentless nightmare. It was like a projector that couldn't be switched off, replaying over and over that she was nothing compared to Chelsea.How did that happen? Ophelia was Yvonne's fan, and Yvonne believed Ophelia, the daughter of the Fords, should always be her fan. Yvonne wiped her tears away. As soon as she turned around, she saw the cat doll Ophelia had given her as a final gift. These days, Yvonne took the cat doll with her everywhere. She still kept it with her even while filming a self-

At Ashthorne Studios, the director announced, "Alright, cut! That's a wrap, everyone. Great work today! You can all head off to the hotel and get some rest." Crew members chuckled and began filing out. They were chatting as they made their way to their rooms.But Yvonne, who was still on set, was fuming as she clutched her phone. She had seen Ophelia's reply, and it only made her angrier.One of her assistants, who was trailing behind with genuine concern, asked, "Yvonne, are you alright? Feeling unwell?""Get lost!" Yvonne snapped, glaring. "You're an eyesore!"The assistant shrank back, clearly frightened and hurt by her harsh tone.Yvonne hurried off to her hotel room with her phone clutched tightly as she replayed a particular video over and over. There was no mistaking that the person in the video was one of her biggest fans from back in the day, the same fan who had once waited for her at the airport in Huntaria.A seething mix of jealousy, anger, and bitter resentment chur

Ophelia was done with Yvonne. Unable to hold back her emotions any longer, she took to Twitter to attack her."Did you really think that every gift I painstakingly made was worthless? After years of devotion, the person I once adored has become completely unrecognizable. When I confronted her, she acted as if nothing was wrong."She even claimed that because I was her fan, I had no right to criticize her. I find that utterly absurd."I once asked her what a fan meant to her, and she dismissed us as shallow, saying our love was something that could be discarded. I always believed an idol should be the pillar of her fans' dreams, a beacon of hope. "But the Yvonne I loved—the one who shone so brightly in pursuit of her dreams—was gone."So, from that day on, I severed all ties. The doll I once gave her on Twitter was my final farewell gift. It was a proper goodbye, not a sign of regret. I stopped logging into that account because I wanted to leave with dignity."And don't say Chels
