Chapter 543

Author: Cloud Drop
"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.

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.

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

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.

    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

    Alisha's crying suddenly stopped.Since she was working at the research institute, her intelligence was not in question. She had probably always known her boyfriend didn't truly care about her.Perhaps she had even wanted to escape this unhealthy relationship. But under the mental control over time, she had lost the ability to resist.Austin's appearance was an opportunity for a way out."I-I'll sell you the tickets." Alisha's voice was choked, but her tone had calmed.Upon hearing that, her boyfriend had lost all reason. He shouted and cursed, making a fool of himself. "You bitch! Those are my tickets! How dare you sell them? How could you date a boy toy behind my back? Are you crazy?""Shut up! I'm going to talk to Ms. Olsen about the concert. Please don't bother us." Austin seemed to have taken the phone from Alisha and ended the video call."Stop crying. Let me take you to wash your face. He doesn't deserve you…"The door opened with a slight creak, and the soft comforting

    Jeffrey's lips were dry, and fear was evident in his eyes. "No... I can't... I can't do that... They can't insult Heather..."Despite everything, he still refused to utter a single word against Heather.Natalie trembled with rage."You're the evil one all this time, and now you're pretending to be romantic? You love Heather, but did she love you? She betrayed you a long time ago! She never loved you!"She tried to frame you! Isn't that what you said? If it weren't for her plot, you wouldn't have ended up in bed with my mom, and I wouldn't even exist! Heather's the truly vile and malicious one! She ruined all our lives! She's the real sinner!"It was all Heather's fault.If not for Heather, her mother wouldn't have become a mistress, and she wouldn't have been an illegitimate child. It was all because of Heather that she could never hold her head high in life."Shut up! Don't talk about her like that!"Jeffrey's face twisted in fury as he slapped Natalie hard across the face. "S

    Natalie continued, "He just didn't want to raise a child who isn't his own flesh and blood. Is that a crime? Years ago, Zack was an upstanding teacher. Who could've predicted he'd later become a gambling addict? Who would've known that he'd do those despicable things?"My dad tried his best to find Xavier a better place. He's already done more than enough. It's unreasonable to expect him to keep caring for the disgrace left behind by his deceased wife for over a decade. Show me a man who would do that.""The ones in the wrong are the Scotts, not my dad!"The reporters were stunned.Nobody had expected this. How did Heather get involved?"H-Heather wouldn't do something like that. From what I heard, Xavier was born after Heather and Jeffrey divorced. Besides, Jeffrey cheated on Heather. Otherwise, how do you explain your existence as a love child?"Some reporters, who were fans of Heather, turned their cameras on Natalie. They challenged her accusations with fierce determination.

She was the one who had her notebook sold for an insane price recently and had won design awards abroad."The daughter of the Mallone family, raised as the heiress, could never be a weakling. I didn't believe for a second she was ever humiliated into suicide!"Another netizen commented, "Exactly! That's Heather we're talking about! Who would dare betray a woman like her? Do you know how ruthless she was in the business world? She could destroy your company with a single word! Liesel may seem harsh, but compared to Heather, Liesel is soft-hearted!""Who does Jeffrey think he is to betray Heather? If he tried, she'd castrate him in a heartbeat.

    Of course, Thomas heard of Elijah before and became indignant instantly. "I can definitely achieve whatever Elijah has! He always spends his time flirting with women. How could I not be better than him?" Thomas was disdainful. To him, Elijah was a spoiled heir just like himself. "You've not kept up with Elijah for so long." Cameron seemed to have aged a lot in a moment. "He's been pretending all this while. Have a look for yourself."Cameron had ordered someone to organize all information related to Elijah last night so Thomas could have a look once he was awake. Thomas looked through every page. The more he read, the more despondent he grew.Elijah pretended to be useless, but Thomas was truly incompetent. If Thomas had to make a point, the Kellers were far wealthier than the Hardins. In terms of looks, Elijah was known for being attractive. Thomas was even once worried that Liesel might find him too muscular.Thomas' eyes lit up as he read the last part of the files. It deta

    "I want rewards as I did last time." Howard really wanted to meet Heather, so he began asking for more rewards this time. "I'll give you the latest codes." Liesel forwarded the codes to Howard's computer with a glint in her eyes. "I've rewarded you, Mr. Durham. Time for you to work. You might have to work overtime tonight since there's plenty to do." Liesel rested her chin on her hand with a lazy smile.Howard already started typing to work on the series of codes. After some time, he fastened his white coat with stiff fingers. "I only need to work overtime for one night? I don't mind working overtime for another ten more nights." Howard simply wanted more codes. He looked at Liesel with a darkened gaze before adding, "As long as you reward me."Liesel couldn't help but laugh. "One night will do. If it's not enough, I'll reward you accordingly."Her words caused Howard's eyes to light up. She then stood up and walked around to the back of the chair before placing her hands on h

    "Let me explain things properly. The other person might forgive your deceit or even give you another chance."Even if the other person refused, Cameron would still pay for her to give Thomas another chance. Cameron had everything planned out.Thomas gazed at Cameron for a long time before finally saying, "It's Liesel Sharp.""Liesel Sharp. Ms. Sharp, right? Let me get ready before visiting her... Hold up! Who did you say you're in love with? Did you just say that you like Liesel?"I asked you to work at Hardin Group so she can mentor you. I never thought you'd actually fall for her! Have you lost your mind?"If Thomas had fallen for any other woman, Cameron might have been confident enough to use his own money or other methods to convince her to be with Thomas. But things were tricky if the woman Thomas had fallen for was Liesel.Cameron was wealthy, and so was Liesel. The Kellers were indeed the wealthiest family in Bloomfield and also somewhat influential. However, their influe

    "Elijah.""Yes, I'm here," Elijah answered."Elijah," Liesel yelled again. "Yes, I'm listening," Elijah replied again. He stroked her soft, long hair with a warm gaze. "I assume you've thought things through," Liesel said. She assumed that he had considered everything and gave up on the idea of leaving her so someone else would take care of her. Instead, he would always be with her.Elijah understood what Liesel meant. He gazed at her gently before leaning forward to kiss her on the forehead. "Yes, I've thought things through."Elijah would not hold Liesel back. He would propose to her if she could heal him and give her everything. If she fell for someone else during that time, he also would not forbid her from leaving him.Elijah loved Liesel, but she would always have her freedom. He knew very well that he loved her, but he always wanted her to be free forever.He wanted her to stay by his side because she loved him, not because she pitied him. It was the only way he could

    Liesel's gaze flickered as she waited for Elijah's response. Struggle was written all over his gaze as he looked past her. He was lost in a daze. Her words seemed to pull him into the future.Elijah watched Liesel slowly drifting away from him. He could only sit in his wheelchair as if he were a spectator and watch her run toward another man's arms from a distance.He saw how affectionate she was with the other man, doing things only lovers would do. The way she cast a charming smile at the other man…No. Absolutely not.Elijah was still unable to let Liesel go so easily. She was his lover, so he refused to let her leave. He drew her into his embrace with one arm and held her tightly. "Lili, I was wrong." The hoarseness in his voice was quite evident. "I can't accept the idea of you leaving me. I don't even want to imagine it. Please don't be with Thomas." To Liesel, the current Elijah seemed extremely fragile. A slight push could cause him to break down. She could feel his swe

    Liesel couldn't hold back her laughter at Elijah's expression. "Are you angry?" She had clearly seen his eye twitching. Elijah was an extremely attractive man who did not resemble Jacob and Tobey's aloof demeanor at all. Instead, Elijah had chiseled features and stunning eyes. His intense gaze would make anyone feel like he only had eyes for them. Elijah had the looks of a troublemaker, yet he seemed strangely vulnerable at that moment. Liesel reached out and gently poked his face. "Why no response? Didn't someone say that Thomas' family and looks match me well? Didn't he even want to let me go so I could be with him? Why is this person so quiet now?"Elijah said nothing. He looked down while clearly feeling disheartened. "I remember you're always the best at explaining how life works to me. Why aren't you saying anything? Thomas has already confessed that he really loves me. Don't you want to know my answer?"Liesel leaned against Elijah. She pressed her forehead against his

    Liesel was really capable of making Thomas fall for her. Had she known who he truly was and decided he could be of use? Was she planning to rise higher in the ranks?Elijah was lovesick for Liesel, but Austin still remembered how ruthless Elijah could be. If Elijah found out that Liesel had cheated on him, he might even want to ruin her completely and never protect her again.After all, how could anyone stand being cheated on? By then, not only would Austin have Elijah get back at Liesel, but Austin wanted the whole internet to know how scandalous Liesel could be. If Cameron knew how Liesel had seduced Thomas despite having a fiancé, Cameron would never let her off easily as well.As glorious as Liesel was now, she would be equally as miserable in the future. Despite being wealthy and powerful, she was still fragile no matter how capable she was. Austin wouldn't even have to do anything. All he had to do was lead her to the top before pushing her off. Liesel would crash and bur

    Jacob glanced at Liesel, who looked at him with sarcasm in her eyes. There was no affection for him at all. "You refused to accept me and decided to go for Elijah. Now that he's crippled, you're choosing that man over me? Liesel, what can he even give you?"Jacob looked downward at Kitty in Liesel's arms. Kitty seemed to feel Jacob's disdain toward itself and began to tremble. "He even picked up this present from the streets."Indeed, Jacob had been keeping tabs on Liesel and was even here to spy on her. Otherwise, how else would he have known that Thomas was by her side? Liesel stopped petting Kitty. At that moment, her smirk faded away. "What does that have to do with you? Mr. Ford, have you forgotten who you are? You're merely my ex-husband, whom I've already divorced. You don't have the right to interfere in anything I do."Liesel mentioned him as her ex-husband to trigger him. Jacob couldn't help but clench his fists while staring at her icily."Must you trigger me?""I

    "Can I take a day off?" Thomas asked. Liesel understood how he was feeling at that moment and smiled. "If one day isn't enough, you can take a few more days off."Liesel was still so gentle. She was so kind that Thomas felt more despair inwardly. Before leaving, he stopped to intentionally remind her. "Ms. Sharp, be careful of Austin whenever I'm not around."Although Thomas wasn't permitted to join the meeting earlier, he heard from those working at the research department that Austin was clearly harboring sinister motives."Why are you so certain that Austin's the problem and not me?""That's impossible. Ms. Sharp, you're the best person in this entire world. You would never betray the company." Thomas' words were filled with utmost confidence toward Liesel. "What if I stole company secrets and went to jail for that?" Liesel asked with an arched eyebrow. "That's not possible! Ms. Sharp, you would never do anything like that.""I said 'what if'.""There's no 'what if'."
