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
When Harriet first joined the company as the general manager, few shareholders showed her a friendly face. Now with the drama, the course of this meeting was unlikely to be smooth. While Harriet was hesitating, Delbert's low and warm voice suddenly reached her ears. "Don't be afraid. I'm here with you. No matter what happens, I’ll face it together with you, Harriet." Encouraged by Delbert's words, Harriet took a deep breath, stepped forward, pushed open the doors of the conference room, and walked in shoulder to shoulder with Delbert.Upon seeing Harriet, one of the shareholders, who had been harboring resentment since yesterday's drama, exploded with anger. He stood up, slamming his hand on the table and berating her. "How dare you to cut corners on such a major deal with the Weston Group? You really have some nerve, Harriet! For a bit of petty profit, you have caused the company to lose so much. If it weren't for the fact that you are the sister of Mr. Levi, we would have expell
Harriet stepped out from behind Delbert. Her eyes were cold as she sneered and retorted mercilessly, "What do you mean by 'just an assistant'? Who do you think you are, and how noble do you think your status is? A bunch of rabble!"She deliberately emphasized the last four words with a forceful tone and an icy chill that lingered."Yeah! A bunch of rabble!"Just as Harriet finished speaking, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.A commanding and icy voice burst forth!A group of bodyguards dressed in neat black tailored suits entered first. Their appearance alone signaled their high status.After they took their positions, slow footsteps followed. It was clear that these were from the person behind them.The room fell silent.Almost everyone present was stunned upon seeing the three influential figures who had just entered.The shareholders were simply shocked by their arrival and stood still.Garry, who had been with Levi for a long time, knew v
"Levi, Justin, Oliver, what are you doing here?" Harriet was very happy to see her three brothers and quickly greeted them. Delbert also nodded towards the three men. Their attitude towards Delbert was significantly better this time. "Hmm, we came to see how you're doing." Levi's cold gaze swept over the shareholders in the meeting room, a flash of coldness in his eyes that disappeared instantly when he saw Harriet.They were discussing business together today when they noticed the news that Harriet's collaboration had been canceled due to allegations of cutting corners. None of them believed Harriet would do such a thing. After Levi had people investigate, they indeed found evidence. It turned out that one of the company's shareholders had tampered with the goods delivered to the partner, and that shareholder was under Garry's command. No wonder Levi wasn’t in a good mood towards Garry at this moment.Afterwards, that shareholder also fabricated evidence of Harriet cut
