Chapter 160

She was a 28-year-old master's graduate who had studied abroad and sported a chic ear-length bob, oozing intelligence and efficiency.Mia snorted dismissively: "After four to five years as customer service manager, your position has been downgraded, not promoted. You're telling me you have no complaints?""I respect the leadership's decisions," replied Eva calmly. "It is an honor to assist Haley."After her statement, she walked up to the manager's office door and knocked."Coward!" Mia criticized disdainfully. "Some returnee with a master's degree you are, not even knowing how to fight for your own rights!"Just then, the office door opened for Eva, and Mia's words clearly reached Haley's ears.Peering through the gap in the door, Haley caught sight of the uniquely dressed Mia.This person seemed familiar...Squinting, she pondered for a moment before it clicked.Five years ago, at her eighteenth birthday celebration, this person had appeared alo

Chapter 161

Exiting the manager's office, Eva looked deflated.Mia snorted, "New boss and the new boss is targeting you first, Eva. If you want to stay with the DeRoss Group, maybe say a few sweet words to me. I might just ask Emily to let you stick around."Eva's gaze was complicated as she looked at her. "Aren't you worried at all?""Worried about what?" Mia scoffed. "I'm Emily's bestie. She hangs on my every word!"Mia was privy to the scheme that had framed Haley, a secret that gave her leverage over Emily. It meant that Emily rarely said 'no' to her.She looked down at Eva with arrogance. "You gave me tough looks when you were manager. But I'm not one to sweat the small stuff. Just apologize, and I'll call Emily for you."Eva's expression darkened. Was it her giving Mia tough looks, or Mia deliberately stirring up trouble?She drew in a deep breath. "No thanks."She strode quickly into the records room.Mia sneered, "Almost out on your ear, and still car

Chapter 162

Eva quickly passed the performance report to her.Haley flipped through the pages, her lips curling into a frosty smirk.The report consisted of peer evaluations, management scores, and finally the administrative department's rating. Mia's scores from peers and management were dismal, not even reaching twenty points, but somehow the admin department had granted her a perfect score of one hundred.This pattern of fraudulent grading was so blatant over the past two years. Or perhaps Emily believed that no one would dare to question it, so they didn't even bother to construct plausible forgeries?"Per the DeRoss Group's policy, three consecutive months of poor performance results in termination," Haley said coolly. "Now, you can collect this month's wages from administration."Mia's eyes widened. "You're firing me? On what grounds, Haley?""The grounds laid out in these performance reports," Haley replied icily, tossing them onto the table. "Twenty months of fai

Emily's eyes were icy, her fingers slowly curling into a fist.It wasn't enough that she'd been pushed out of the boardroom, but that wretch Haley had the audacity to target her friend!"Emily, the whole company's buzzing...saying the DeRoss Group will soon be Haley's domain. They're even claiming she's better suited as the heir than you," Mia said through clenched teeth. "It's just too bad I can't stay at the company any longer, or I'd make sure to give a piece of my mind to anyone who speaks ill of you.""I won't let you get fired. Just wait and see."Emily hung up the phone, her perfectly made-up face seething with anger."That little snake, Haley! She’s playing the game on a whole other level," Flora said, hearing the conversation loud and clear. She slapped her hand on the table and said icily, "Emily, we can’t just sit around and wait for disaster."Biting her lip, Emily replied, "Mom, you think I don't want to just eliminate that little wretch? But Kei

Was this really not disturbing her? It was clearly a way to force Mrs. Patterson to take a stand!How could Madam DeRoss not guess what was on Emily's mind?Confined to her home, she still caught wind of the DeRoss Group's affairs from the household staff.With cloudy yet sharp eyes, she said slowly, "I've heard about you stepping down from the board and resigning as General Manager. This doesn't seem directly related to Haley."Emily choked on her words.If it weren't for Emily herself, no one would have scrutinized the misappropriation of funds. How could it have nothing to do with Haley?Biting the inside of her cheek, Emily said with a hint of grievance, "Grandma, I know I've done wrong, and I accept my dismissal from the company... but what did my friend do wrong? She's been with the company for two years and brought in quite a few new clients. As soon as my sister took charge of the client department, she fired my friend. Isn't that just targeting me in

Chapter 165

In the world of high society, wealth and power create a visible hierarchy among people.But there's one sphere where neither can hold sway, and that is the realm of culture and the arts.Consider the painters, the artists, violinists, pianists... If one of these virtuosos emerges from a rich family, that family's standing in the elite circle becomes unrivaled...Emily clenched her fingers with a surge of excitement.Keith was paving this path for her, surely hoping she'd one day have the confidence to marry into the Winston family."Grandmother, I understand, and I will practice diligently," she said.Her face aglow with joy, Emily left the elderly lady's room.Flora hurried over to her: "How did it go? What did the old lady say?"Emily recounted the conversation about her piano practice.Flora furrowed her brow, "Doesn't that sound a bit odd? Is Keith really that generous?""Mom, I've told you before, Keith really listens to me. I told him ho

Chapter 166

"Hello there! Are you looking to buy a piano for your child? Is it for a boy or a girl?" a sales associate greeted them warmly.Haley had Todd hold his sister’s hand while she followed the associate to look at pianos.As one of Cuenca's top piano shops, even the most affordable piano here hits a price point that's just shy of six figures, with some creeping towards a cool million.Fortunately, Haley wasn't strapped for cash. Even if she were, she wouldn't dream of cutting corners for her child.She had begun her piano journey alongside Emily at the age of five, both of them dedicating over a decade to the craft. Sure, they'd fallen off in recent years, but the foundation still held strong.After testing several pianos, Haley settled on one, declaring, “The sound of this piano is quite remarkable, especially the vibrato—pure perfection.”The sales associate beamed, “It seems you have a fine ear for pianos. This is our pride and joy.”“I know a bit, just en

Chapter 167

Exiting the piano store, Haley found her two children waiting at the door, hand in hand.Seeing Emily approaching, Todd quickly ushered Angela outside. The last time they'd run into Emily at the preschool, Angela had nightmares for nights. Todd couldn't dare risk another direct encounter between his sister and Emily."Mommy, didn't you get a piano?" Todd inquired, looking up.Haley was about to respond when her phone began to vibrate in her pocket. She glanced at the caller ID, her expression tinged with surprise.It had been a year since this person had last reached out to her."Mr. Albert, what made you think of calling me?""I'm in Cuenca for a piano tour and thought of you—this is your hometown, isn't it?" The slightly aged voice spoke from the other end of the line. "Do you remember what I told you a year ago?"Haley paused, her voice softening, "I've lost the childhood passion I had for the piano...""But you have a gift for it. Why not harness

Ivan's brows furrowed even deeper. "You're taking lessons here at the Winston family estate?"There was a distinct impatience in his tone.Emily took a deep breath, striving to remain composed. "As you know, my grandmother isn't well, bedridden for many years. Practicing at the DeRoss estate would disturb her rest. Besides, Keith arranged for this piano teacher, and I'd like him to supervise my practice."Finishing her explanation, Emily gazed at the man on the sofa, her eyes shimmering. However, Ivan didn't spare her a glance, merely surveying the piano with a knitted brow.Keith's decisions were something he rarely interfered with, and even though it went against his personal preferences, he would not voice any objections.Emily let out an inward sigh of relief. She had feared being publicly humiliated if he had demanded she remove the piano.Just then, Keith descended from the second floor and noticed the new addition to the living room corner. "Mother, wh

Alice was thirty-two this year, at an age where a woman's charm and grace are fully bloomed.She had golden hair, with her golden curls cascading over her shoulders. Her green eyes, pronounced nose, and her entire being exuded elegance.Ivan was ready to leave, contract in hand.He had no interest in Emily's endeavors; if she wanted to practice piano during the day, he simply wouldn’t come home.As he was about to step out, he caught a glimpse of Alice entering.Surprise flickered across his face.Keith had found Emily a globally renowned piano prodigy as a teacher...He had been astounded by Alice's performance when he once attended her concert...Retracting his step, he extended a hand toward Alice. "Miss Alice."With a gracious smile, Alice responded, "Mrs. Winston, I've heard so much about you. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you today."Seeing the scene unfold before her, Emily couldn’t help but feel a trace of surprise. She had been
