Joanna's assistant ran into the big office. As soon as she entered the main office, she started shouting,

“Quickly, quickly everyone, put away all the unnecessary things on your tables, especially all the snacks and cosmetics. Put it all away at once. Someone's going to come around later”

She said with a tone filled with hyperventilation.

“Who is it?” Ella asked from amid the crowd.

The assistant put on an arrogant expression, “The president, of course. who else would it be?”

“What!?” The crowd in the big office all gasped in shock. “How come the President suddenly nursed the idea of inspecting our department?”

“Who knows about that? Anyway, you all should hurry up and clean your spaces. If you fail to do so and the President gets offended by this, just want to be scolded afterward”

    Joanna's face was void of color after being berated like this. How could she have forgotten? Zayn had always been a man of his word. When it's about his work, it was always a big no that he could not tolerate anyone questioning his authority or decisions. She had just made a big mistake now by breaking his rules just to make things difficult for Bethany.

I brought them here to finally meet you. Their assessment is also required for you to fully become the chief designer of the Oceania project”. ‘Are they really that important?’ Bethany was a little taken aback but she quickly calmed down.

    Could Joanna not have done it? As she was lost in a daze, thinking about this, Zayn nodded his head slightly and answered, “Go ahead.”“Okay, thank you, Mr. Meyer." Bethany immediately suppressed her suspicion and left the conference room.After she left, Zayn narrowed his eyes and looked at Joanna. “Tell me, do you do this?”Joanna had an incredulous expression on her face as she spoke. "Zayn, do you suspect me as well?”“It's not that I'm suspecting you. I'm only asking because you have targeted her in the past,” Zayn said in a cold, emotionless tone.Joanna clobbered her feet against the floor lightly at his trust; she looked seemingly angry as well. “I admit that I have targeted her before, but it wasn't me who did this. If it was me, why didn't I stop her from going to the surveillance room?”Upon hearing what she said, Zayn lowered his head and was lost in thought for a few seconds.Joanna knew that he was a little swayed by her words. A sinister smile soon broke out on her thin

    "Yes.” Bethany hesitated before replying. “That's why I need your help with this, Jenna." Bethany looked at her cute face through the screen. However, as she looked at her, her eyes became more complicated at this point. She had the intention of involving the little girl, but she is the only one who can find out who was responsible for everything within a short time. "Alright, I'll find the person who bullied you, Miss Burnett. I won't let them get away with this." Jenna clenched her fists and gritted her teeth as she spoke with a look of determination in her eyes. Hearing this, Bethany blew her a flying kiss. Jenna simply looked at her with a solemn gaze. Just as silence ensued between them, Erica walked into the room carrying a glass of milk and snacks. “Jenna, here are your snacks. Have a bite,” Erica said as she walked into the room. Jenna looked in her direction without saying a word. She stared back at the phone. Then, she kept the phone on the bed and went to the closet to

    The two fell into the elevator together, and the elevator door closed at the same time.With a thud, the elevator wobbled vigorously. Bethany fell to the ground of the elevator, and Zayn fell onto her.Both of them looked into each other's eyes, and they were immediately stunned for a while.Bethany looked dumbly at the man in front of her; her mind was clouded with confusion.Zayn was also surprised by the current situation they are in. He lowered his head to look at her red face and her slightly parted lips. His eyes slowly darkened at this.Soon after, Zayn came back to his senses and quickly moved away as he tried to get up from on top of Bethany.After standing up, he settled himself before saying in a deep voice, “I'm sorry. I was rude to you just now."“It's... it's okay." Bethany also heaved herself up from the floor.Then she replied to him in a weak, low voice and didn't dare to look at him.She could feel that her heartbeat was pounding particularly fast at this point, and h

    "What are you saying?" Joanna acted as though she could not comprehend a thing. Bethany squinted her brown eyes, "You know fully well what I am saying. It may look like Ella did this but you are the mastermind. You told her to do so”. The day before when Zayn finished inspecting the design department and was about to leave, Joanna cough towards her direction. At that time, Bethany was confused by Joanna's action, but it all fell into place when she saw the surveillance records, it was Joanna motioning for Ella to head out. Joanna probably instructed Ella to mess with her design at this moment. " You are saying I told her to so that? Have you got any proof?” Joanna crossed her arm and laughed as though she had just heard the funniest joke ever. Bethany fixed her air and said calmly, "I don't have any proof, that is why when you threw a glance at Ella, I didn't expose you Joanna was too good at concealing herself; she didn't leave a trace that she was involved. Things could turn a

    Hearing his words, Mr.Meyer turned to look at him with seriousness.The expression appeared as though something had been awakened in his mind.“Do you really think so? If that's the case then we don't deserve to call ourselves her family, how could we fail to find her?” He viciously blames himself.“Why are you blaming yourself, old master Meyer? It's not even confirmed that the young mistress is alive yet. On top of that, the situation was too complicated and no one knew the truth.” Mr.Meyer Sr looked ghastly at the dark view of the sea and muttered.“If there's a chance that my dear Giselle is out there somewhere, I'll turn the whole world down to bring her back no matter what”His firm tone and cold expressions were a testament to his serious he was.“What are you planning to do, Master Meyer?

    Back in the hospital. The smile on Jessica’s face faded as soon as Zayn was gone.After he left, the smile on Jessica's face disappeared and she put on a cold face. The next moment, she pulled open the bedside drawer, took out a document, and opened it. She was a little sad. But soon she thought of something else and slowly touched on these words, revealing a frightening smile. Just then, she heard a soft knock on the door before Jeff walked into the room with his stethoscope in his hands. He carefully examined her and said.“Ms.Ferguson, there is nothing to worry about.If you look after yourself well, you'll be fine” “Dr.Emerson, why isn't Ms.Quest visiting you anymore? Did you two have a lover’s quarrel?” Jessica asked seriously with a pretentious smile. Jeff was caught off-guard. However, the mention of Bethany’s name caused his eyes to turn red with hate.

    “I'm dying, Zayn. I'm dying from everything, there's no reason to continue!” Jessica sounded so weak as if she had given up on life.A few weeks back, Zayn had motivated her to continue living no matter what.However, seeing that he had given up on her, Jessica decided she had no reason to live anymore.“What are you talking about, Jessica? You shouldn't give up so soon. I'm here with you now, I was a little busy and neglected you for a while, I'm so sorry” Zayn was apologetic as he took her hands into his and kissed them.Her thin hand was utterly cold and devoid of life.

I don't want to trouble you so don't worry about me”Even though it sounded as though Jessica was being considerate.

    Once Zayn left, they turned to look at each other with complicated gazes. “Why would Zayn hurriedly leave in the middle of an important family meal? What was so urgent that he couldn't care less about Grandpa’s health before dashing off? Who knows if Zayn truly cares about Grandpa!”Joanna broke the silence with her rhetorical questions.Even though it sounded as if she was worried about the old man, she was simply trying to ignite the burning flame in his heart.She could vividly remember that Mr.Meyer Sr still held a grudge against Zayn for what happened to Giselle Medina.

She scoffed before saying.“Maybe, he's really busy today, Zayn’s never left Grandpa alone before especially while he's sick”At this time, everyone noticed the dark aura looming around Mr.Meyer Sr, he was getting offended at Joanna’s remarks but he couldn't say a word since he was telling the truth.Zayn had always
