Thomas felt like his ego had taken a big blow. Anyone could look down on him, but not Liesel. "They misunderstood the manual. The circuit board in this area…"Liesel interrupted Thomas. "This isn't your job. Go and move the boxes."Thomas, who had been prepared to prove himself, felt he had lost before he even started. He immediately looked down while feeling deflated. He wasn't highly educated, nor did he have good grades or any impressive achievements. That was why Liesel looked down on Thomas. Not only did she not let him look at the detailed manual, but she ordered him to move boxes.In Liesel's mind, perhaps he was only good enough to carry boxes. That thought caused Thomas' eyes to redden, making him feel terribly sad.Cameron often called Thomas a loser, saying that he could only live his life off dividends in the future. Back then, Thomas wasn't hurt at all because he believed he was capable. However, one denial from Liesel made Thomas feel extremely doubtful about hims

A few laborers stood not far away. They were smoking while gazing at Thomas with concern once in a while. "What happened to Thomas?""He wanted to look at the blueprints, but Ms. Sharp told him off.""His ego suffered a blow?""We're just laborers, so we can't mess with this high-end equipment. Those foreigners aren't easy to deal with either. Didn't you see how they treated Ms. Sharp? Let alone people like us, and we're merely laborers.""Thomas' is a high-spirited young man. I heard he once went to college.""Oh, he's still too young and not thick-skinned enough. Unlike older timers like us, we don't feel anything after being scolded. As long as Ms. Sharp doesn't cut my pay, anything is fine."Someone hushed them. "Ms. Sharp is coming our way."Everyone quickly fell silent and took a few strong puffs from their cigarettes. Their gazes followed Liesel closely. Night had fallen, and the parking lot was slightly dim. However, Liesel seemed radiant. Wherever she went, that pla

Thomas took a deep drag from the cigarette.A moment later, his coughing was so loud and violent it could've shaken the room."If you're not good at smoking, just leave it be. Smoking isn't a great habit. It's much better to stay clean and fresh." Liesel's gentle voice carried a hint of a smile.Thomas quickly put out the cigarette and lowered his head to hide his flushed face.Did that mean Liesel thought he was clean?He raised his head and quickly glanced at Liesel. His eyes were filled with affection.Liesel undid a few buttons on her jacket and loosened her tie. Unbothered by the dusty cart, she sat down next to Thomas.Thomas felt his body tense. Every nerve was on edge. Being close to his crush really made his heart race."The instrument was broken by the Gildrennians," Liesel said with a soft chuckle.Thomas stared at Liesel's profile, dumbfounded."Broken?" It took him a moment to process before he asked."Yes, it was assembled incorrectly. The panel is dead. It won

A warm current surged from Thomas' heart, and a tide of emotion swept over him in an instant.He took a few deep puffs through another cigarette while trying to suppress the urge to hug Liesel. His eyes grew even redder, and his body heated up.But Liesel mistook his reaction for sadness. She spoke gently, "Don't get involved in matters outside your responsibilities. If something goes wrong, others will easily pin the blame on you."She knew this all too well. When she first worked at Ford Corporation, the secretarial staff thought she was easy to bully, so they often pushed the blame onto her."I understand." Thomas nodded."I just contacted the Gildrennia team. They've reimbursed half of the purchase cost and are sending us a new machine. They'll also send over a few senior technicians." Liesel stood up and asked, "You can assemble that machine, right?"Reimbursing half of the purchase cost and sending a new machine was quite a loss for them. It was likely the cost would fall o

"You want a laborer to fix the machine?" The few Gildrennians looked at Liesel in disbelief.To them, this was completely absurd. What could a laborer possibly know? Could he even understand the Gildrennian blueprint?Thomas ignored their skepticism. He picked up a manual from the floor and quickly flipped through it. The instructions were indeed very detailed. In just a few minutes, Thomas had absorbed the blueprint and memorized all the steps."I'll give it a try." He picked up a screwdriver. Completely ignoring the Gildrennians' mocking glances, he proceeded to work. He swiftly dismantled the machine and reassembled the scattered parts, carefully piecing the machine back together.The Gildrennians thought it was laughable. A laborer thinking he could do what they couldn't?They gathered together, waiting to see Thomas fail. They had started off mocking him, but by the end, they were all left stunned.Likewise, Hardin Group's technicians went from impatience to complete shock.

Liesel finally showed a satisfied smile. She placed her hand on Thomas' shoulder and gently said, "Focus on learning during this time. Those Gildrennians are just tools. Don't mind them too much."Build a good relationship with Hardin Group's technicians. I'll move you to the Mechanical Engineering Department soon. The apprentices there earn at least two thousand dollars a month."Thomas was at a loss for words. His eyes were fixed on Liesel.Cameron loved him but only controlled his life. He never supported his ambitions. There were many times Cameron even scolded him for wasting time on frivolous things.But Liesel was different. She saw his potential and actively created opportunities for him to shine.Thomas felt a surge of emotion. He could only lower his head and gratefully say, "Thank you, Ms. Sharp. I won't let you down."Liesel didn't respond but continued to smile lightly."Will I still be able to see you once I'm in the Mechanical Engineering Department?" Thomas could
Regretful Tears Won't Bring Her Back Chapter 545
Thomas learned how to assemble machines from the few Gildrennian technicians. He was truly gifted. Within just a few days, he had surpassed his mentors and began working independently.He was fluent in all sorts of foreign languages, making communication seamless. He could even read complex papers and technical materials. If he had focused more on his studies back then, he would have been a prime candidate for success.At first, the Gildrennian technicians were quite resistant to him. But over time, they were won over and began to consider poaching him to their headquarters in Gildrennia.The technicians at Hardin Group recognized Thomas' potential. Valuing talent, they offered to transfer him to the Mechanical Engineering Department for focused training, without needing Liesel's suggestion.Liesel really did find a great opportunity for Thomas.Thomas didn't disappoint her. Once he joined the Mechanical Engineering Department, he immersed himself in learning. He studied the mater

The man's voice grew even more impatient. "Then what's the point of going?""But I've bought the tickets. Each one cost over a hundred dollars," the woman murmured."My friends want to go. Give me the tickets. I'll have them go instead.""Can't we go?""The back row is too far. Can I even hear anything from there? Get someone to deliver the tickets to me now!" The man's tone was full of commands."How about I find a scalper? They should have VIP tickets," the woman suggested reluctantly. She opened her contact list to search for someone.The video call continued.At the top of the stairs, around the corner, Thomas took out his phone and began texting Liesel. "This woman is being manipulated. If her boyfriend gets the tickets, he'll surely take another woman to the concert."Liesel nodded."Should we help her?" Thomas asked.They exchanged glances. Liesel hesitated. As a woman, of course, she wanted to help prevent this fiasco, but intervening in someone else's personal matter

"Dad, Mom. Yvonne has always been filming on set this whole time. How could she have offended Chelsea? It probably has nothing to do with Chelsea."As soon as Brandon finished speaking, Sebastian and Veronica thought his words made sense. However, Yvonne became sheepish and didn't say a word.She had sought out Sebastian, Veronica, and Brandon to seek justice for her, yet she felt extremely embarrassed. She continued sobbing, sounding sadder than ever."Yvonne, what's going on? Say something! I won't know what actually happened if you keep crying!" Veronica was so upset that she began tearing up.Yvonne threw herself into Veronica's arms. "Mom! What am I going to do? They're going to blacklist me from the industry. What should I do…"Brandon's eyes twitched. He felt that something wasn't right. He wondered if Yvonne had gone viral after offending someone in the entertainment industry.Brandon's heart raced as he scrolled through the Twitter trends. His heart sank instantly, and h

Yvonne had fallen to that point. She couldn't continue falling any further and get embroiled in more scandals. She averted her gaze as she took off in a hurry. Even at a distance, she could still hear the crew members mocking her name loudly while insulting her. As soon as Yvonne entered the elevator, she could no longer hold back her tears. By the time she left the elevator and reached the car, she was already a crying mess. She leaned against the steering wheel and sobbed nonstop. Once she had cried enough, she drove back to Zima Villa as her last hope. At that point, she was forced to return to beg her parents, Sebastian Zima and Veronica Pole. Meanwhile, Joseph had kept an eye on Ophelia's situation. He always had been one to keep up with the gossip and not interfere no matter how bad things got. He even intentionally messaged Edward, leaving him uneasy after learning what happened to Ophelia. Joseph: "Are you aware that Ophelia has been bullied?"Joseph: "Do you remembe

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-
