"Might Mr. Wood?" Fiona made a gesture of cutting her throat. When Shawn gets angry, whoever goes near him dies. She doesn't want to end up dead.Gale replied, "He's in a good mood. If someone's in a bad mood, that's me."Fiona sighed in relief. "That's good, that's good!""What?""Well, ma'am, why are you upset? Mr. Wood is utterly devoted to you. You are blessed!" Fiona said.Gale sighed heavily, "Glamorous on the outside, tormented on the inside."Fiona was puzzled."Never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. Fiona, you're still single, right? Wait until you have someone, and you'll understand."Fiona scratched her head, "I'm focusing on my career for now.""It's been so many years. I have two children, and I can still work. Why are you still single? Doesn't Mr. Shawn care about your personal affairs?""Well...""Let me talk to him later. I'll tell him not to work like a mule. Your career is important, but your personal life shouldn't be neglected!"Gale wav
"No, no. Gale, you know, when I see Mr. Wood, I get nervous, even flustered. I can't even make eye contact with him. Fiona is Mr. Wood's personal secretary; when I see her, I get just as nervous and flustered! It is impossible, not to mention she is a girl!" Peach quickly refused."I haven't said anything yet.""But that's what you mean!"Gale nodded. "Yes, exactly. You and Fiona get along well, you know each other inside out. What if it actually works out?"Peach shook her head vigorously. "No need, no need. It is inappropriate, not a chance!"Gale suppressed a laugh, playing more with the idea of teasing her.Gale understood why Shawn liked to tease her for no reason. It turned out it was quite amusing to tease someone and observe their reactions.Of course, Gale could not possibly try to match Fiona and Peach. Peach's heart belonged to Sam, and she knew that. She just mentioned Fiona to make a point."Peach, you haven't really spent time with Fiona. How can you be sure it's
Why the sudden visit?Seeing Peach's unusual expression, Gale asked, "What's wrong? What's going on? You look like life has been drained from you.""Mr. Carson is here..."Gale perked up at once. "Sam? What a coincidence!"She was just about to have a heart-to-heart with Peach. Since Peach did not like Fiona, why not try with someone she liked? Gale knew Peach liked Sam, and she would help her pursue him. Sam had even delivered himself to her door. That made things even easier.Peach panicked. "Oh no, oh no. Why did Mr. Carson came without informing me? I'm not prepared! I haven't even put on makeup, I am dressed so casually. How can I meet him like this!"Gale got up and pushed her into the rest area. "Go, do your makeup and change your clothes.""But Mr. Carson...""I'll handle it for you!""No, Gale. If Mr. Wood finds out...""It's fine, don't worry about it." Gale waved her hand. "Go quickly, make sure to appear beautifully!"Peach was completely flustered, her mind buzz
"No changes. I'm surprised you still remember." Gale replied. "We've been friends for almost twenty years, from elementary school to college graduation. How could I forget your preferences and habits?"However, sitting face to face and having a calm and peaceful conversation was actually quite rare. So many people drift apart as life goes by. Sam just smiled and sipped his tea. He had matured a lot; he was no longer the impulsive young man he used to be. Gale looked at herself again; she had changed too. She became quiet and gentle, with a motherly and nurturing aura.They had gone through so much; who could maintain their original appearance?"How have you been lately? I want to hear the truth," Gale asked."Very good, really good. I know you've been doing well too." Sam heard about Gale from the news, gossip, and the whispers in high society. She had two children, shares in the Wood Group, and is married to Shawn. She was the envy of the whole city.However, Gale did not
"Maybe you're not even aware of it. Truth be told, you don't have to personally come all the way here since you have a secretary. However, you still chose to make the trip yourself," Gale said."Have you ever thought that maybe you want to see her and talk to her?""Perhaps, amidst your busy schedule, being around Peach relaxes you?"Sam kept his head lowered. After a while, he said, "She's really quite adorable.""I think so too."Having said enough, Gale decided to stop. Patience was key. It is necessary to break through that layer of hesitation when it comes to love. She could not force the issue all at once. She just needed to seed the thought in his head.Peach had long fallen for him. As long as Sam opened up a bit and took the initiative, the two of them could likely become a couple.Just then, a knock on the door interrupted them, and Peach rushed in."Mr. Carson, I'm sorry. I had something urgent, so I couldn't make it earlier. I asked Gale to entertain you in my place
"At the end of the year, we will be changing the spokesperson for Lovito. Who do you think will become the new global spokesperson for the brand?""Is it going to be a male or female celebrity?""I don't know. It's not something we can decide.""I remember Summer really likes...""Oh, Summer has to decide on this, or Gale will have the final say."They were whispering, but Gale heard them.The spokesperson for Lovito? Her eyes darted around, and she immediately had a candidate in mind! A good spokesperson would boost jewellery sales and represent the brand image. So, Gale thought of a female celebrity, Ivy Park.She was stunning, with delicate features. She had a commanding presence and did not give off an innocent, helpless vibe. She was the queen of product endorsements as a double award-winning actress with millions of fans. The clothes and bags she wore became bestsellers.Ivy Park had not been in the entertainment industry for just two years. In this short time, she had ac
He furrowed his brows slightly. "Are you accusing me?""Fiona said you were meeting a female celebrity, but when I came in, I only saw you. I can't help but suspect you've hidden her away," Gale replied.His expression darkened. "Nonsense, she just went to the restroom.""Oh, that's it then." Gale stuck out her tongue. She believed Shawn, but teasing him a bit was irresistible. How could he possibly be interested in anyone other than her?"Speaking of which, did you meet Sam today?" Shawn, hands behind his back, asked nonchalantly."How do you know? Are you following me?"He casually replied, "There's nothing I don't know when it comes to company affairs."Gale scoffed. "Pfft. Yes, I did meet him. We spent some time alone in the meeting room, and had a chat over tea. What's wrong with that?""It's fine.""Then why ask?"Shawn's gaze fell on her, mysteriously saying, "Wait till you get home tonight."Gale instantly regretted her earlier bravado. The courage she had just displ
Lulu was determined to give Gale a taste of her own medicine. Lulu walked up to Gale and arrogantly asked, "Do you know who I am?"Gale nodded. "Of course, Lulu. I've seen your TV dramas. They are quite terrible. You lack acting skills and a poor command of dialogue. You've been heavily criticized online. You are mentally resilient to be able to endure all that. If it were me, I would have left the entertainment industry long ago, enrolled in an acting class to improve my skills.""How I act is none of your business. I came to Wood Group today because Mr. Wood invited me to sign a contract. I am the next spokesperson for Lovito!""Oh, are you sure you are signing that spokesperson contract?"Confidently, Lulu nodded. "Of course!"She was a current star, backed by the top agency in the entertainment industry, with abundant resources and connections. She could even meet Mr. Wood. Securing the spokesperson position was surely in the bag."Too bad Shawn can't sign you. Given your tem
