Without beating around the bush, Sadie got straight to the point. "Miss Lily, I've heard about your conflict with Harriet. I also know she offended you first. Otherwise, someone of your distinguished status wouldn't stoop to having conflicts with her!"Of course, my issues with Harriet are similar to yours. She provoked me first."Since we share a common enemy, why not join forces against her? Let's give her a taste of her own medicine. How does that sound?"Sadie knew how to manipulate people well. Her words not only pleased Lily but also reignited her animosity towards Harriet.And next, all Sadie had to do was wait for this foolish woman to take the bait and agree to team up with her against Harriet.After hearing Sadie's proposal, Lily fell into thought. Indeed, she was eager for Harriet to suffer because of Delbert.Lily's jealousy prevailed under Sadie's tempting offer, and she quickly agreed to cooperate.Hiding her complex thoughts, Lily looked at Sadie with a warm s
Harriet didn't deserve it! And how could Delbert prefer a woman like Harriet, who was good for nothing and only relied on her brothers, over a noble lady of her stature? The more Lily thought about it at home, the angrier she got. After collaborating with Sadie and taking her advice, she found an excuse to leave home, pretending to come on behalf of her brother Liam to discuss a "partnership" with Harriet. She intended to use this cooperation to make Harriet suffer.As she saw Harriet's office just ahead, Lily snorted disdainfully and pushed the door open."Lily?" Seeing the impolite visitor was Lily, Harriet couldn't help but frown, "What are you doing here?"Lily's arrogant and domineering demeanor made it clear she was here specifically for Harriet. Putting aside how Lily knew of her whereabouts, just by looking at Lily's disdainful expression, it was evident that she had no good intentions.The sudden arrival of the heiress from the Lynch family at their company, look
Upon hearing that, the employees, though still harboring resentment towards Harriet, couldn't help but snort with laughter."Harriet, don't go too far!" Lily pointed at Harriet, furious.Seeing Lily's frustration, Harriet took a sip of her water to moisten her throat, and continued speaking in an even tone, "Miss Lily, you said you came on behalf of your brother, Liam, to discuss a partnership with us? Then why has our company received no prior notice?"If this’s such a significant collaboration as you claim, then given Mr. Liam's reputation for meticulousness, he would have informed our company in advance and arranged a proper meeting. Why would he send you in such a rash manner?"Harriet's lips curled into a sly smile. "Miss Lily, by using your brother's name to deceive so many people in our company, causing us all this unnecessary trouble, what exactly is your intention?"Could it be that you, relying on your status as the Lynch family’s heiress, has become accustomed to acti
She was certain that if she weren't Liam's sister and if her brother didn't have a relationship with Delbert, she wouldn’t live to see another sunrise.At this moment, she dared not trouble Harriet any further. Instead, every cell in her body screamed at her to flee from this dangerous place as quickly as possible.Seeing Delbert's arrival, the employees also didn't dare to make a sound. The office fell into an eerie silence at once."Leave now!"Delbert had repeatedly let Lily off the hook out of respect for his good friend, Liam.Harriet watched with raised eyebrows as Lily stood there petrified.When Lily saw Harriet's reaction, her rage flared up again but was quickly quashed by a piercingly cold glare from Delbert. She bit back her anger and tears and left dejectedly.Once home, Lily couldn't hold back any longer. Her tears fell like pearls off a string."Liam!"Seeing Liam nearby, she ran to him and began sobbing uncontrollably, spilling out everything that happened th
With these thoughts, Lily's sense of injustice grew stronger. She turned around, slammed the door, and went back to her room to continue talking to Sadie about their next plan to embarrass Harriet.Meanwhile, Liam actually wasn’t as angry as Lily.A hint of interest flickered in his eyes, and the corners of his lips curved up with a subtle smile.The news of Harriet and Delbert commuting together was something he had deliberately leaked to his sister that morning.He revealed this information because he had recently discovered that Harriet was frequently seen at a certain company and her name appeared in the position of general manager on the company's organizational chart.And that company belonged to his rival, Levi.Since his sister Lily liked Delbert and always disdained Harriet, he thought of using Lily directly when he was worried about how to probe into Harriet's situation at that company.Given Lily's disdain for Harriet, she would definitely go looking for trouble upon
The boss personally came to the press conference, indicating that the Weston Group's approach to their cooperation was very sincere. After Harriet briefly greeted Joseph, the press conference officially began. Throughout the press conference, Harriet remained calm and composed, speaking confidently when facing questions and doubts from the reporters. That instantly established a positive image of her in the eyes of the cooperating party and the journalists present.Many initially thought that Harriet, being a young manager and a young woman, wasn’t very reliable. Many reporters came to the interview with a skeptical attitude. However, as the press conference began, many reporters secretly apologized for underestimating Harriet.How could she be unreliable?This was clearly a case of outstanding youth!Harriet keenly noticed the change in the expressions of the reporters from disdain at the beginning to re-evaluation. She couldn't help but smile. It wasn’t in vain that she had been
Reporters picked up their phones one after another and saw several pictures, which were evidence of Harriet cutting corners. That directly nailed Harriet.The reporters could no longer contain their curiosity and crowded around Harriet to inquire. After all, a newly appointed general manager's first cooperation with another company involved cutting corners, and it was with the highly prestigious old group, the Weston Group in Imperium. That was big news! If they could be the first to report this news, it would be a great achievement!They didn't want to miss out! The reporters rushed forward to Harriet. Many of them had even rushed onto the stage with their microphones held out directly in front of Harriet."Ms. Harriet, please clarify what happened?"They were determined not to let her leave until she admitted to cutting corners.Meanwhile, Joseph, who was also on stage as a business partner, learned that Harriet had cut corners in the goods she provided him with. He immediately
"If anything bad happens to Harriet, today's press conference will turn into a memorial service!" The reporters who were caught in his fierce gaze were immediately scared and dared not take another step forward. They stood still, their legs trembling. Especially the group of reporters at the front were so frightened that they almost knelt down to beg for mercy.Delbert was truly terrifying! In an instant, the noisy and chaotic venue quieted down, and everyone held breath as they nervously watched Delbert who exuded a terrifying aura from head to toe.Seeing that the venue had finally quieted down and the frantic reporters gradually regained their composure, shrinking back to the side and not daring to make a sound, Delbert withdrew his cold gaze. He lowered his eyes and gently carried Harriet up in his arms. The gaze he directed at her was different from the previous coldness. It was filled with tender concern.His thin lips parted, and his voice was tender with a hint of in
