"Seems like someone just has privileges. They can go to work whenever they want. What kind of leader doesn't feel responsible for the team? She had just gotten the job, and she started to take leave. Won't that slow down the work we're doing? Are we just going to stop moving forward because she didn't show up to work?" asked Queenie.Queenie did not wait for Molly to appear and concluded that Moly would not come. She began to express her dissatisfaction and even wanted to sway the hearts of the rest of the team.Benjamin was at a side, and he overheard Queenie's words. He glanced at her lightly. Then, he said, "I will keep up with her progress."Queenie somehow could hear the meaning behind Benjamin's words as if he was protecting Molly. Queenie suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and did not say anything after that.Queenie just frowned and had some doubts in her heart.'Is Molly feeling unwell, or did she not return from the kidnapping?'Queenie thought of that, and the pictur
Tony stood behind Sean.Sean put his hands on the table. There was a cup of hot tea and a stack of documents next to his hand.That stack of documents caught the eyes of the crowd. "The purpose of the meeting today is to inform everyone that I, as the person in charge of the Anderson Corporation will withdraw the vice general manager, Michael's overseas authority."Taking him at his word, there was a sudden uproar at the meeting. The crowd was looking at both Sean and Michael. The crowd did not understand why Michael's authority was being taken away suddenly.They wondered if the Anderson family was fighting among themselves."One month ago, Michael invested in the overseas market in the name of the Anderson Corporation without the company's permission. Unexpectedly, the company he invested in was a shell company. Thus, the investment was a failure." Tony stood in front of the table.He was holding a hardback book. He then opened the book and reported as he looked at it."Mi
Sean had been running the company for years. Under his leadership, the Anderson Corporation had become a well-established company in Northfolk. They were unassailable. The crowd thought that Michael was mad and talking nonsense because his power was taken away.Sean was calm. He stared at Michael who was sitting not far away from him. He was expressionless as he said, "What document?"As Sean spoke, Michael stood up angrily. He then put a briefcase on the table. He opened the briefcase roughly as he took out the document that he forced Sean to sign yesterday. He opened the document violently. He wanted to publicly present it. However, his face was suddenly stiff. He did not even have the time to calm his anger. It was like someone froze him."What the F*ck. What happened?!"Michael was stunned. He then held the document close to his eyes. The document was very close to his face. He stared at it with wide eyes angrily for a long time.Everyone in the room looked at Michael wi
The shareholders and the top management remained silent. They agreed with the decision. They even scolded Michael in their mind.'Michael is a bast*rd!'Someone was mad. He raised his hand as he angrily said, "We have no objection to this. It's his mess. It's not fair to use our money to help him clean up his mess!"Right after he said that, the others spoke up."I agree! What makes him think that he can use the company's assets to make up for his own mistakes?""Michael should compensate us for our loss!""Not only must he clean up the mess, but he should also compensate for our daily loss during that period!"…It could be seen that the crowd was unhappy."Mr. Anderson Sr. and Sean, I think Michael should give up his shares if he can't fix the problem completely. This is the consequence of damaging the company!" one of the shareholders said. Suddenly, there was a dead silence. Everyone looked at the man.Their eyes were filled with greed.The company's shares were way mo
The cold light in his eyes dispersed toward Michael. His eyes were filled with anger, and he looked like an angry lion that was roaring. It was because of Molly.Michael had a deep fear. The hairs on his body were standing up. But, he did not back away.Mr. Anderson Sr. felt the rage between Sean and Michael. He remained silent as he looked through the documents near Sean. He then left angrily. Sean and Michael left after that too.In the afternoon, police officers went to Michael's house. "What are you doing?!" Michael's mood was bad. He was furious when the two police officers pinned him down indiscriminately."Don't think that you can just do whatever you want just because you're the police. I'm from the Anderson family. I'm the Anderson Corporation's vice general manager. Why am I being arrested?" Michael wanted to break free. But, his arms were being pressed tightly. His eyes were filled with rage. "We are in Northfolk! How dare you touch me? Do you have some kind of dea
Michael not only kidnapped molly, but he was also guilty of some other offenses."Father, how can the Anderson family save him if he successfully committed a crime? If this spreads out, the Anderson family would be an embarrassment. Don't tell me if one of the Anderson family members commits a crime, he or she doesn't need to be punished legally. The Anderson family is not all-powerful in Northfolk."Sean's lips were filled with sarcasm.He knew his father knew about what Michael had done in the Anderson family for the past few years.It was just that Ricky turned a blind eye to Michael's wrongdoings again and again out of brotherhood.But, Sean was not like his father. He would not tolerate Michael's wrongdoings.Ricky wanted to say something. But, when he saw his son's determined eyes, he sighed. He did not say what he wanted to say initially. "You're right. But, your grandfather will definitely ask you about it.""I'll explain to grandfather."Ricky backed down when he heard
When Molly returned home after treating Sean, it was already very late and misty outside.The house was very quiet. The only sound that could be heard is the gears rotating in the mechanical clock. She felt very cold before entering the house, but the warmness filled her up as soon as she took a few steps into the house.'What?'Molly walked into the living room, and she was surprised to see Grandpa Dave sitting there.Grandpa Dave would usually be resting in his room at this time. She was a little confused. She walked to the sofa and sat down. Then, she asked out of concern, "Grandpa, why are you still up? You can't sleep?"Grandpa Dave put on a gentle smile after seeing her. "Are you done with the treatment? Are you tired?"Grandpa Dave felt a twinge in his heart as he looked at Molly."I'm good. Don't worry. I just can't fall asleep. I probably had too much for dinner just now," Grandpa Dave said softly. He took Molly's hand and put it on top of his chunky hand before p
Grandpa Dave raised his hand and softly patted the back of Molly's hand again. He sounded earnest as he told Molly with a smile, "Time flies like an arrow. The journey of life is very long, and you'll meet a lot of people. Some of them are not going to stay in your life, but some of them could be very important to you and those are the ones that you have to treasure."Don't miss out on any opportunity in your life and regret it in the future. There's no turning back once it's over…" Grandpa Dave said softly, but the empty living room suddenly felt lonesome. The atmosphere became tense before Molly and Grandpa Dave knew it.However, some things never change, but people do.Grandpa Dave started to feel sleepy. Molly watched him go back to his room after chatting with him for a while. Then, she went to the backyard alone, and she sat there for a very long time.Her surrounding was silent, but her mind was so noisy, that it felt like a bustling city in the daytime. The next morni
