All Chapters of Let Me Go, Domineering Presidents: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Joaquin (Extra)5Whenever we were out socializing with our clients, out of my own selfish motives, I tried not to let Yulissa take a single sip of alcohol.I would rather drink more on my own than let her have alcohol. But she always liked to drink on my behalf.According to her, it was part of her duty as my secretary.To prevent her from drinking, I had to make an excuse that I had severe astigmatism and couldn't drive at night. By telling her that I needed her to send me home, she would be forced to abstain from alcohol.That went on until I drank so much once that I was hospitalized for stomach bleeding. The doctor banned me from drinking, so I had to stop for some time.During the fourth year of her employment in my company, she got drunk for the first time at one of the social events I brought her to.The client we met with that day was difficult to deal with. We drank a mixture of red, imported, and white wine to please him. So, it did not take long for her to become in

3Zachary was the first one to react. He impatiently removed his hand from the same garment I was holding and said, "I thought you would lay low for a few days after falling into the water. Are you so eager to go out that you're here now?"Judging from Zachary's impatient expression, I could tell that he must have thought that I was stalking them.Dude, didn't you have eyes to see with?The driver behind me was carrying a dozen of bags. It was obvious that I was here first.I didn't have any favorable feelings toward the "murderer" who killed the original Liliana Hill.Not even when he possessed the distinctive facial features, thin lips, and dark eyes that a male lead ought to have...Thinking of those depictions, I suddenly wanted to laugh for no reason. I didn't understand why I wanted to laugh, but I already laughed out loud.Zachary frowned even more as he watched me laugh heartlessly."Liliana Hill, what are you laughing at?"I couldn't even laugh?Was every CEO such a

7I chose a green off-shoulder dress, and my wavy hair was neatly tied behind my head, leaving only a few strands of curly hair on my forehead to soften the angles.Looking at myself after dressing up, I couldn't help but exclaim inwardly, "Liliana Hill certainly looks good. She becomes more attractive after applying makeup. She's still a beautiful woman, despite the fact that she doesn't appear to be as delicate and alluring as Natalie Hill. People can't help but glance at her because of her lively and vibrant face."I struggled to understand why she persisted in pestering Zachary.After dressing up, I went outside to look for Zachary. He was dressed in a well-tailored black suit and sat on the couch casually. He looked just like a male model. The author really gave him a good figure. All of the girls around him couldn't stop peeking at him.Zachary didn't say anything sarcastic when he saw me approaching."Let's go."Along the way, none of us said a word. Looking at the luxury

11I was finally relieved after a few uneventful days.I began to reflect on the situation as the female lead always did. What did this imply?I'd given him a kiss. How could Julian stay so calm?I almost thought what had happened before was an illusion.Thus, I went to find Julian for tutoring again. As always, he was kind and courteous. It appeared as though the previous events had only been a dream. I couldn't help but feel intense frustration.I was already quite obvious. Why didn't Julian say anything?Did this imply that he was subtly rejecting me?I began to have doubts about myself."Lili, what's the matter with you? Isn't Further Mathematics your favorite class?"The bell hadn't rung, so Julian hadn't arrived yet. The classroom was incredibly noisy. I rested my head and arms on the table listlessly and didn't want to answer Jasmine's question at all.Jasmine continued to speak despite the fact that I didn't respond. "Because of whom are you acting this way? I heard

15"I've been searching for you for a long time, Lili. Why didn't you pick up the phone?"After getting out of the taxi, I wandered around the campus aimlessly. I had no idea how long I had been walking. Suddenly, I saw Julian hurrying toward me, looking worried.I had read the novel and knew that Julian would get a bad ending after getting close to the female lead. Why did I still insist on doing what I wanted to do?Was I too selfish?It turned out that it was extremely easy to destroy a person's confidence."I can't seem to find you anywhere, and your friend, Jasmine Quinn, has no idea where you are. I'm really worried."Julian didn't even wait for me to say anything. He spoke as quickly as a machine gun.Seeing his sweaty forehead, I couldn't help but feel guiltier.What should I do if such a good person was ruined by my selfishness?"Lili, don't stress over the rumors online." Noticing that I remained silent, Julian slowed down and assured me, saying, "I'll take care of
