"Does that mean I'm just supposed to just accept being victimized?" Suzy laughed bitterly. "Winter, I'm out of options now. I'm too afraid to go back to my old workplace. My parents still haven't forgiven me. Winter, I..."Winter reassured her, "Don't be upset, Suzy. I'll help you. Are you looking for a job? I can ask Xavier to arrange something for you at Frotconn, or maybe at City Ring Corp? It's my family's company!"Winter felt guilty toward Suzy, but more importantly, she feared Suzy might become distant or cut ties with her after this incident, which could jeopardize her previous actions…"Winter, you're so kind to me!" Suzy hugged Winter tightly. "I won't cause you any trouble, Winter. I don't need Frotconn or City Ring Corp. Do you need someone by your side? Can I work for you instead?""Me?" Winter pointed at herself in surprise. "You mean you want to join me in the entertainment industry? But I don't need anyone. I have a manager and an assistant. Besides, Suzy, you're my

Noelle noticed that Charles' mood seemed off ever since he returned from the Hoffman residence the other day. Although she found it strange, Charles did not say anything in particular, so Noelle could not do much about it.As days passed, she adapted well to her role in the project department. She successfully completed most of the tasks Brian assigned her independently. Brian would still often take Noelle on field trips to inspect the project in West City.Brian reviewed Noelle's project plan and found her ideas quite mature.One day, Noelle accompanied Brian on another outing. When they returned around noon, they spotted a young woman helping an elegant, dignified woman out of a car at the entrance of Colossus Group's building.The woman's demeanor suggested she was someone of high status.Noelle walked behind Brian as they discussed some details about their meeting with the survey team. Suddenly, they heard the young woman say, "Aunt Clary, do you think Charles will be angry if

"Outrageous!" Clarisse was furious at Charles' words. "Is this how you speak to me?"Charles remained silent.Clarisse sighed. "You won't return to the Hoffman residence, so I had no choice but to come find you."Hearing Clarisse's softened tone, Charles smirked with disdain. "Mother, you must be mistaken. I've always been this way. Grandpa and Dad never found any issue with it.""That's them. They don't care about you, so naturally, they don't mind if you return or not. But Charlie, I'm your mother.""Oh, you remember now you're my mother? When I needed your care, you weren't there. Now that I don't need it, you show up." Charles' tone turned cold, his face showing impatience."I'm working. If you have business matters, schedule an appointment with my secretary. For personal matters, wait until after work!""Charles!" Clarisse gritted her teeth. "I didn't come to discuss this. You should know I wouldn't come from Capiton to Brookville if it weren't for you.""Then you should g

Charles left without looking back, leaving Clarisse standing pale-faced at his office door. "Charlie, is this really how you treat your mother?" Unfortunately, Charles did not answer.The security guards felt confused, but since Charles was Collosus Group's big boss, his words were like law. They were paid to do their job, so they naturally followed Charles' orders. "Ma'am, please leave with this young lady. This is a company, and we can't let outsiders in freely.""Am I an outsider? I'm Mr. Hoffman's mother!""But you're not a Collosus Group employee!"Janet felt utterly humiliated. When had she ever not been the center of attention? In Capiton, which rich young man did not treat her kindly? The Baker family members all adored her like a treasure.This was the first time Janet felt so embarrassed, especially since the person humiliating her was the man she liked so much.Janet's eyes quickly reddened as she grabbed Clarisse's hand. "Aunt Clary, what should I do? Charles seem

Having gained no advantage from her visit to Charles, Clarisse returned directly to the Hoffman residence. Janet supported Clarisse the whole way, her expression no better than Clarisse's.Although Janet was very dissatisfied with Charles' attitude toward her, she did not dare say anything to his face. She could only follow Clarisse, as she was now the only one supporting Janet's relationship with Charles.Clarisse easily saw through Janet's thoughts. Noticing her low spirits, she patted Janet's hand. "Janet, you must be tired too. Why don't you go upstairs and rest? I have some things to discuss with your uncle."After sending Janet away, Clarisse immediately called for the butler. "Where's Mateo?"James had served Maxwell for a long time and held a high position in the Hoffman household.He was even a few years older than Mateo and Henry. He had never quite liked Mateo's wife, especially given Clarisse's early departure from the Hoffman family. It was something he had always cri

Clarisse's expression darkened as she set her teacup down forcefully. "Mateo, I don't want to discuss these things with you. I don't know what your mindset is in saying all this. I came to you today for just one thing.""Go ahead," Mateo said, his lips twitching. He knew she must have had a reason to approach him so voluntarily. "What do you need from me?""Regarding Charlie and Janet's marriage, it's been delayed for so many years now. When do you think we should arrange their wedding?" Clarisse asked politely, suppressing her usual haughty demeanor.Mateo's brows furrowed upon hearing this. He looked at Clarisse, his eyes filled with complexity. "You know Charlie won't agree to this. Why are you so persistent? Janet could have anyone. Why does it have to be Charlie?"Clarisse grew impatient. "Mateo, just give me a straight answer. Do you agree or not? What's wrong with Janet? I think she's far better than that Kelly!"Mateo felt helpless. "This has nothing to do with Kelly. We'r

"I want Janet to join Colossus Group."Mateo's eyes snapped open. "That's impossible!""Why is it impossible? Are you afraid Janet isn't qualified? She graduated from the Central University of Finance and Economics with a relevant major." Clarisse fixed Mateo with a sharp gaze. "This is my only request, Mateo. Are you saying you can't even manage this?""You should know that Charlie is currently managing Colossus Group," Mateo replied, reluctant to get involved.The last time he interfered with Colossus Group, it had displeased Charlie greatly. Mateo was not afraid of his son, but he saw no reason to strain their relationship over someone else.However, Clarisse was stubbornly persistent, not considering the consequences. "You said I was forcing Charlie. Fine, I won't force him now. I'm just asking for Janet to work at the company. "They lack a connection because they don't spend enough time together. I believe if they spend more time together, Charlie will naturally see Janet's

On Tuesday morning, when Charles exited the underground parking garage, Ronald immediately fell into step beside him. "Mr. Hoffman, I've mostly taken care of the matter you asked me to handle. Suzy has now gone to the film studio to work with Winter."Charles paused briefly, a glimmer flashing in his eyes before he curved his lips. "What did Suzy say?""She seems a bit impatient and wants to get revenge on Winter right away.""Didn't she ask why you were helping her?" Charles took the notebook from Ronald, furrowing his brows slightly as he saw the emails. "Any movement from Kerlsberg?""Mr. Hunter doesn't seem to be making any moves," Ronald reported, then hesitated. "Ms. Anderson appears to have gone to Kerlsberg as well."Ronald carefully observed Charles' expression as he mentioned the name 'Ms. Anderson', but seeing no reaction, he continued, "It's unclear why Ms. Anderson went to Kerlsberg. Mr. Hoffman, should we have someone keep an eye on her?""No need." Charles waved hi

"Charles, h-how can you say that? I've been so accommodating to you. I came all the way from Capiton just to be with you. How can you speak to me like this?" Janet retorted."Don't want to hear it? You think I'm not speaking nicely? Then leave right now. I've made myself very clear. I won't marry you, so stop wasting your time on me. Otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind!" Charles said impatiently.He then slammed the door shut, completely cutting Janet off outside. Janet did not expect Charles to be so heartless and nearly got hit by the door as it closed.Janet's eyes turned red with tears almost flowing. She clenched her fists and glared fiercely at Ronald and Becky. "What are you looking at? Have you never seen such a beautiful woman before? Keep staring, and I'll have Charles fire you both."Ronald smiled coldly but did not bother with Janet further. He turned to Becky, "Has Mr. Hoffman's schedule been arranged for today?"Becky said respectfully, "It's been arranged, Mr

Mateo sighed. "Charlie, I know this situation is difficult for you, but you must agree to it. Your mother rarely asks me for anything, yet she's doing so for Janet."As he spoke, his eyes showed signs of fatigue. "Consider this a father's plea. If we don't let your mother try, she won't give up.""Dad, I don't know what happened between you and her in the past, nor am I interested in knowing. But I hope you understand that I'm no longer the young child I once was. You can't control my thoughts anymore.""I understand!"Charles chuckled lightly, twirling a pen in his hand. "Whatever is going on between you and my mother, you'd better resolve it yourselves. Don't let it get to the point where I have to intervene."Mateo's face stiffened, and then he laughed awkwardly. "I've failed as a father, haven't I? We should've resolved these issues ourselves, but instead, we've dragged you into it. Your sister blames me, you blame me, and Liliana as well..."Mateo closed his eyes wearily and
