Cedric had a cold smile on his face. "As expected from you, Ms. Jefferson. Even now, you act like nothing's wrong. Why don't you ask yourself, honestly, what kind of mess you've caused recently?"Mavis frowned, looking at the board members, all of whom were frowning too."I'm not aware of any mistakes I've made recently, Uncle Cedric. If there's something on your mind, just say it.""Fine, I'll be direct! Do you have any idea what kind of damage your trash-collecting fiancé has caused our group?"Mavis remained calm. "I'm not sure. Please, go ahead and tell me what impact it's had."Cedric sneered and pulled out a stack of documents, slamming them onto the table. "As everyone knows, Lyson Group is one of the strongest subsidiaries under the Lormford Chamber of Commerce. We've had a long-standing partnership with them. "Recently, Lyson Group has a project worth three billion dollars, and our company has been negotiating to secure that deal. Everything was on track for a contract

One of the board members spoke up, clearly frustrated. "Ms. Jefferson, if you and your fiancé just apologize, this will all blow over. Why insist on being stubborn and harming our interests?""Exactly! Without Lyson Group's deal, how are we supposed to recover our losses? And what about the setback to our plans with the Lormford Chamber of Commerce? Who's going to bear that cost?""Yeah, Ms. Jefferson, sometimes you have to make sacrifices for the greater good. You can't be so selfish!"Voices rang out from all directions, filling the room with chaos. A cold smile flashed across Hugh's face. Everything was unfolding just as he had planned. Mavis had only two options—step down or apologize alongside Timothy. Either choice would be a devastating blow to her, especially the latter.It might seem like a simple apology, but in reality, it would force her to concede. Once she lost her authority, the board would soon crumble into disarray, and Hugh would make his move then."Ms. Jeffer

Timothy immediately dialed the number Mavis had given him. It was too late for her to stop him, as a deep male voice had already answered from the other end, greeting them.Even Cedric's expression shifted, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. Everyone in the room had their eyes glued to Timothy, nervous about what nonsense he was about to spout. What came out of his mouth the next moment made Mavis's vision go dark. Timothy, in his usual carefree manner, asked, "Are you the person in charge of Lyson Group?"The person on the other end hesitated for a few seconds before responding, "Yes, who's this?"Mavis shot Timothy a pleading look, silently begging him to hang up the phone. However, Timothy acted like he didn't notice. Instead, he yelled into the phone, "What's with the attitude? Don't try to play games with me. Let me ask you—are you really planning to stop the collaboration between Lyson Group and Jefferson Group? "Here's a word of advice—if you know what's good for

A man's voice came through the phone."Is this Ms. Jefferson? I'm the representative from Lyson Group in charge of the partnership with your company. I want to sincerely apologize for the earlier decision to suspend our collaboration."Starting now, all collaborations will resume as planned. Furthermore, the Lyson Group will be increasing our investment in this project by an additional one billion dollars.""W-What?"Mavis froze, completely stunned. She was unable to believe what she was hearing. How was that possible? Was she dreaming?Timothy had just insulted the guy, yet he was calling back to apologize. On top of that, they were increasing the investment by an extra billion dollars!The meeting room was dead silent, the voice from the phone echoing in the room. Everyone was in shock.Cedric's face turned a ghastly shade of gray, trembling as he muttered, "This… This can't be real."Timothy allowed an imperceptible smirk to form on his face. "What do you mean it can't be re

"Mavis, who is this guy?"Shauna looked over Timothy, noting his shabby appearance, her brow furrowing in disgust.Mavis rubbed her forehead, exhaustion and helplessness clear in her expression. "He's my fiancé.""What? Him?"Shauna recoiled as if she'd seen a ghost, taking two steps back. She scanned Timothy from head to toe before practically shouting, "Mavis, are you out of your mind? You haven't broken off the engagement with this guy? And you brought him to the company?"Mavis bit her lip, a bitter smile on her face. She didn't even know how to explain it.Shaking her head, she tried to change the subject. "Shauna, what brings you here today?""Good thing I did come! Otherwise, I wouldn't have known this guy followed you into your office! I'll call security right now to have him thrown out!"Shauna turned to call the guards, her face full of anger.As Mavis's best friend, she had always wanted her to marry into a good family. The moment she found out that Mavis's fiancé c

Mavis raised an eyebrow, curious about the photos. "What's this?"Shauna's eyes sparkled, and her tone softened significantly. "Last night, I was at a bar and I met a hero! I secretly took some photos of him.""A hero?""Yup! This hero not only took on a bunch of thugs at the bar, but he also saved two women! He was amazing! Everyone at the bar said he was really handsome!"Shauna's face was full of admiration and worship, her demeanor shifting to that of a lovesick woman. Mavis was a bit surprised to see that. However, it was natural for women to be attracted to strong, handsome men with a sense of justice. Hearing about someone who fought off a dozen thugs and rescued women was definitely exciting. Even Mavis was curious about him.Seeing Shauna's starry-eyed expression, Mavis couldn't help but smile wryly. "I see. You met someone you're interested in at the bar but were too shy to ask for his contact information, so you took these photos?"Shauna blushed slightly, looking em

Timothy was momentarily confused by the voice on the other end of the line. "Who is this?""You bastard, have you forgotten the shameful things you did last night? You're so despicable for pretending not to know me!"Timothy was bewildered. "I honestly don't know who you are, woman. What did I do wrong? Who are you?"Suddenly, a woman came to mind. Could it be Kara from the bar the previous night? He had interacted with her then.He tentatively asked, "Are you Kara?"When she was silent, he scratched his head as he smiled wryly. "Well, it must be you then. However, what shameful things did I do? Is this perhaps a misunderstanding?"Kara said coldly, "I'm giving you 15 minutes to come back to the hotel, or I'll jump off the building!""Go ahead, I don't care. I didn't do anything to you!""Fine! Just remember you said that!"Then, Timothy heard the sound of footsteps, followed by the rushing wind. He felt a jolt of fear. Was she serious about that?Kara's voice was laced with

"Come in and close the door!" Kara said.With a loud bang, Timothy stepped into the room and shut the door behind him. Sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, he gazed at Kara's alluring figure beneath the robe with a knowing look. Kara was on the bed, feeling uncomfortable under his scrutiny, as if ants were crawling over her. She grabbed a pillow and hurled it at Timothy, who caught it effortlessly. "Ms. Reed, can we just talk about this?" he said, sounding frustrated.Kara, tears streaming down her face, pointed at him. "How dare you! You bastard! You took advantage of me while I was drunk! I'm going to make you pay!"Crying and furious, Kara lunged at Timothy, who immediately frowned."Hey, calm down!""I can't calm down!" Kara sobbed, clawing at him in frustration, choking on her tears.Timothy sighed, seeing her wild behavior. He gritted his teeth, grabbed her hands, and then wrapped his arms around her waist, pinning her to the couch. The position was incredibly i
