As an experienced and steely president, Yumi had imposed strict requirements for the job applicants.After flipping through all the resumes that were submitted, there was a disappointed look on her face.Then, she swept her falcon-like gaze toward the group of job applicants, ignoring each and every one of those exhausted faces.Ultimately, her gaze fell on one graceful and dashing physique. Although he was no longer the young master who was radiating with brilliance, he had never failed to amaze anyone with his coolness and indifference. A great astonishment emerged in Yumi's eyes. Slowly yet surely, it evolved into a determined smile.Yumi was the Severe’s family’s daughter-in-law. Although she rarely returned to the Severe’s residence, she had learned a secret from Sera. Jay was back, and he had lost his memory too.In order to protect Jay, Angeline was rigorous in keeping his identity a secret.Yumi was not a good and virtuous person. Besides, she was still brooding over Gr
Unexpectedly, after several years of girding up her loins, Angeline, who had been in a position of power and influence for so long, actually carried such a sharp edge."Trying to steal applicants from me, Ms. Severe? I’m sorry, but you’re one step late." Yumi laughed.She had never regarded Angeline as her sister-in-law.Although Yumi was Angeline's sister-in-law, she would never take on this obligation.Angeline blurted in a domineering manner, “It’s also possible to scrap a contract after it’s signed!"Yumi stared at Jay. "Make sure you take a look at the consequences of breaching the contract before you decide whether you want to breach it or not."Jay did not care about the consequences of breaching the contract, though what he did not like was how Angeline was behaving like a vanquisher."What are you trying to do?" he questioned her furiously.When Angeline turned to look at him, the frost on her face dissipated completely. She said with a smile, "Her tiny company doesn’t
Jay turned back, gritted his teeth, and growled. "What do you want?"Angeline replied, "Come to Grand Asia. Pick whatever position you want, list out the annual salary you’d like, and get everything from branded cars to big houses."Jay's face darkened. "I don’t have that high of a net worth."Angeline stuck her tongue out. She seemed to have overshot the mark.This guy was still unaware of how valuable his capabilities actually were.Angeline pondered for a while before saying to Grayson, "Grayson, dismiss Zayne. From tomorrow onward, he’ll be my personal assistant."Grayson could not help but laugh. Was Ms. Severe trying to put him close to her in order to take advantage of him?Master Ares was clearly more suited for the Cyber Security Department.Jay darted her a speechless glance, looking extremely reluctant. "I’ll come to work tomorrow."Angeline nodded with a smile and ordered Grayson, "Send him home."Grayson was secretly delighted. "Okay," he responded in a very sono
Jay turned him down straight away. "It’s a hassle to move."Grayson, "..." Yeap, that was definitely his way of dealing with a situation."Daddy." Suddenly, a kiddy voice interrupted their conversation.Marilyn held Tiger’s hands and was just returning from the vegetable market. The vegetables in the basket looked very much wilted and even slightly yellowish.Grayson’s falcon-like pupils suddenly contracted. Did this woman actually pick vegetables like that to cook? To feed Tom, Dick, and Harry?Grayson's heart was clouded in a layer of obscurity for some reason.Marilyn had always been someone who would move at the sight of money, hence when she noticed Grayson driving a luxury car, she immediately wanted to curry favor with him."Who is this, darling?""A colleague," Jay replied.Marilyn let out an ingratiating smile. "If he’s your colleague, then invite him in to take a seat. It’s really impolite to make him stand out here."Jay looked reluctant.Even so, Grayson nodded
Grayson turned on the tap and splashed cold water onto his dashing face. In the mirror, Grayson tried his best to manage his expression, gradually concealing the violent and ruthless look on his face.He then tried to squeeze out a smile while facing the mirror, yet this smile looked even more hideous than his crying face.In the end, he gave up fixing his facial expression altogether as tears flowed out of his eyes.Three years ago, the scene of Jay braving the danger alone in order to rescue them started flashing in his head like a movie.He was their everything.However, he sacrificed himself to save everyone.Grayson was about to burst into tears. He raised his head, drew out the tissues next to him, and wiped his misty eyes vigorously before crumpling the tissues soaked with his tears into a ball. He tossed it into the trash can.Grayson nearly slipped to the ground at the sight of a Durex condom packet in the trash.Master Ares and this woman… How heartbroken would Ms.
After Grayson left, Marilyn started grumbling endlessly, "I know you’re a man of high morals and that’s why you refuse to accept alms from others, but can’t you see what kind of life we’re living? We don’t have a single penny, and all the vegetables we ate today were the leftovers from the farmer’s market. How are we supposed to live a life like this?”There was a hint of anger in Jay’s eyes. "And you served our guest with vegetables like that?"His icy tone sent Marilyn shuddering with fear. She then cried and said, "No housewife can cook a meal without food and vegetables. What do you suppose I do?”Jay roared. "Bread alone is enough to fill someone’s stomach."Having said that, he turned around and left abruptly.He shut himself in the bedroom and inadvertently swept his gaze across the Hacker Empire books on the bedside table.A singsong voice rang out in his mind. ‘Mr. Ben, these are my mommy’s favorite books!’They were strangers who had never met, yet even so, she was abl
After Grayson returned to the company, he pondered over and over again before eventually informing Angeline of Jay's situation.Grayson said in a choking voice, "Ms. Severe, he’s not doing well at all. The vegetables they eat are wilted and yellow. They were a little spicy as well, none of which is good for his stomach."Angeline was stunned for a very long time after hearing what he said."I just gave him money, didn’t I?""Marilyn accidentally lost the bank card and all the money in the card was transferred out."There was a spark of anger in Angeline’s eyes. "I want you to check and see who on earth has stolen that bank card. Once you find that culprit, I want you to punish him severely.”Grayson clenched his fist. "I will.""Go on then."When Grayson left, he suddenly remembered something else when he got to the door. His countenance turned vague as he turned around to look at Angeline.Angeline was reading documents with her head lowered.Grayson felt awful.For the pas
Jay gave Angeline a provocative stare. "Are you threatening me?"A hint of guiltiness emanated from Angeline’s eyes.Though at the thought of how dutiful he was at serving Marilyn at home, a surge of jealousy overwhelmed her.He would serve Marilyn at night and serve her in the day!That was only fair!"So what if I am?" Angeline said.Jay's eyes darkened. "I’d rather have Tempest die with dignity than to live with humiliation."Angeline, "..."Her tone softened as the tension on her face eased. Her voice carried a hint of compromise. "What do you want to do?""I'm going to the Cyber Security Department."Angeline looked furiously at him.The president's office was on the ninth floor.The Cyber Security Department on the sixth floor.They were separated by three floors.Was that to say that she would have to go downstairs if she wanted to see him?When Angeline looked at Jay’s stubborn expression, she suddenly felt a pang in her heart. Reluctantly, she summoned Grays
