Chapter 220

"Wendy, you're so brave! I applaud you!"

"In Johnsonville, there's no one who can make me suffer yet! Not slapping her twice was me showing restraint."

"Wendy, you're awesome!"

"Hearing you say that, it makes sense why Francis and Mandy are together—they're two peas in a pod."

"A pair of oddballs."

"Luke didn't take the opportunity to exploit him and help Mulligan acquire Destiny—his professionalism is top-notch."

"JL Capital's reputation in the investment banking circle is well-deserved."

"Look at you, all proud. Now tell me, how was Mr. Walker's hand? Was it broad and strong, warm and secure?"

"I was so shocked by his actions that I didn't have the mental capacity to notice anything else."

I didn't particularly notice if his hand was broad and strong or warm. But the moment Luke appeared in the reception room, I felt a deep sense of security. Maybe that's what Wendy meant by a sense of safety?

"No worries, Jen. You'll have another chance to fully appreciate it next time."
