Chapter 61

The sight of Kyle bowing and fawning before Ernie left everyone in the conference room stunned and disbelieving, especially Blair.She could not believe her eyes, wondering if it was all just a dream."Mr. Willcox, he's just an actor hired by Leona. Don't let them fool you!" Blair tried to warn Kyle.Kyle's face grew paler upon hearing Blair's words, breaking out in cold sweats.He glared at Blair and yelled angrily, "Shut up! Who do you think you are? Do you want to get fired? This is my boss, a shareholder of Wealthtrack!"Blair was shocked, and her legs almost gave out on her.Ernie was Kyle's superior and a shareholder of Wealthtrack Financial Corporation!What had she done?She had nearly struck someone of such high importance!Ernie looked at Kyle with disdain and scoffed."Kyle, it's been a while, and it seems like you've gotten bolder. Your damn manager just tried to strike me, even wanting me to leave.""Mr. Passey, I'm so sorry!" Kyle said quickly, panic written al

"Oh, alright," Leona said as she sat down and picked up the pen to sign the contract.Just as she was about to sign it, she suddenly stopped and looked at Ernie suspiciously."Did Matthias send you?"Leona was not foolish; only Matthias could orchestrate something like this.The thought made her a bit angry, as she did not want to rely on Matthias' influence; she wanted to achieve success on her own."Matthias? Who is Matthias?" Ernie asked, genuinely confused.Victor had not mentioned anyone by that name.However, Ernie was quick on his feet and replied with a smile, "Ms. Whitney, I don't know anyone named Matthias. I'm here to sign the contract not because of you but because Blair's behavior was so awful that I wanted to deal with someone else."As a shareholder of Wealthtrack, signing this contract is like moving my money from one account to another."Just sign the contract. I have other matters to attend to."Ernie sat back in his chair with a haughty expression, though h

Chapter 63

Blair spent the entire day anxiously awaiting disciplinary action from the company.Yet, as the day dragged on, nothing happened.It was as if the morning's events had never occurred, leaving Blair utterly bewildered.As the workday drew close, Matthias waited patiently beside the car he had bought for Leona.The car was covered in black cloth, and he was excited to surprise her.Matthias' eyes lit up when he saw Leona emerge from the building, her face glowing with joy."Matt, let's not take the bus today! I just closed a major deal and earned a huge commission. Let's take a cab home!" Leona called out excitedly as she approached.Matthias smiled, pleased to see Leona so happy.He planned to reward Alpha later for doing a great job!Matthias was about to reveal the surprise when a mocking voice suddenly sounded."Taking a cab? Leona, what have you been doing these past three years? Why are you still so broke?"It was Blair.Blair had assumed Leona must have some powerful b

"Leona, while you've been doing nothing for the past three years, I've been pushing forward. I'm way ahead of you now!"Blair's tone was laced with disdain, and she felt a surge of satisfaction as she finally avenged the humiliation she felt earlier.Leona bit her lip, obviously affected by Blair's words.She had not been doing nothing for the past three years. In fact, she had worked harder than anyone else, never taking a single day off and juggling multiple part-time jobs!All because she had to hide from the Whitney family while supporting Danielle.Even though it made her life demanding, it was also fulfilling."Honey, is this your colleague? How do you work with someone who has such a foul mouth? It's unbearable!" Matthias chimed in.He put his arm around Leona's shoulder, his gaze coldly fixed on Blair.Blair's expression darkened immediately.She glared at Matthias with contempt and retorted, "Shut up! Who do you think you are to talk to me like that? You're just a nob

Chapter 65

When Matthias and Leona returned home, their relationship was no longer distant and formal.Instead, Leona often showed a softer side, and their bond gradually returned to its former warmth.When Danielle saw the car Matthias had given Leona, she felt jealous.She pouted and refused to smile at Matthias."Daddy, you're being unfair! Mommy got a gift for going to work, but why didn't I get anything for going to school?" Danielle complained, her eyes starting to tear up.She said, "Daddy doesn't love me anymore! Daddy only loves Mommy! Nobody loves me!"Leona gave a helpless smile.She wanted to comfort Danielle, but the little girl turned away, ignoring her.Matthias chuckled as he took out a small jewelry box.Danielle was just about to cry when a glimmer of light caught her eye."How could I forget about you, Dani? I promised you stars from the sky, but stars are too far away, so I spent days getting them just for you!"Matthias held a necklace adorned with tiny stars, each

Chapter 66

A month had passed since Leona started her job, and thanks to Ernie's deal, Blair could not openly trouble Leona anymore.However, Blair still abused her manager's power to make Leona run errands and handle various insignificant tasks.Throughout the month, Leona was burdened with mundane chores in the sales department.Her colleagues also took turns ordering her around, whether fetching packages or taking out the trash.Despite that, Leona held no complaints.The tasks, though tiring in Blair's eyes, were a far cry from the part-time jobs Leona had taken over the past three years.Alpha would also report to Matthias about Leona's situation daily.A few times, Matthias almost retaliated against those mistreating her, even contemplating severe punishment for them and their families.However, he restrained himself as he knew that if he acted out, Leona would not feel grateful but resentful.Their relationship had finally improved, and he did not want to jeopardize it."Remember

Chapter 67

Blair was secretly overjoyed.While Leona was entitled to the commission, Blair and Joseph took that money for themselves.After all, they believed Leona was just a nobody, and that was a great chance to make Leona pay for offending Blair!Besides, Joseph also wanted to use that opportunity to put pressure on Leona.Even though Blair was reluctant, she could not stop it.Nonetheless, the thought of keeping the commission that Leona earned pleased Blair."I—" Leona opened her mouth, her face filled with frustration and hurt."Know your place!" Blair mocked and left.Leona stood there, stunned, struggling to process what had just happened.She had expected to earn 150,000 dollars in commission that month, only to have it taken away.The sense of loss was overwhelming, and no matter how positive she tried to be, it was hard to accept.As her colleagues left for the day, each one passed by Leona with smug expressions.They envied her for achieving 15 million dollars in sales, s

Leona's expression remained unchanged as she fixed her gaze on Joseph, her fists clenched tightly."I'm from the Griffin family of Havenwood. You might not know what that means, but let me put it this way—the Wealthtrack Financial Corporation, which seems so powerful to you, is nothing compared to the Griffin family," Joseph said, looking at Leona with disdain.Leona's eyes flickered with a hint of confusion, but she was clearly taken aback.The Griffin family was also one of the top families in Havenwood."Mr. Griffin, since you're from the Griffin family, 150,000 dollars should be a drop in the bucket for you. Why make things difficult for a mere employee like me?" Leona took a deep breath, her face marked with resentment.Joseph laughed. "Of course, 150,000 dollars is nothing to me. Sometimes, my expenses in a single night exceed that amount."Then, he stared at Leona, his gaze intense."Why am I making things difficult for you? Don't you understand?"Leona's eyes widened wi

Chapter 69

Joseph looked arrogantly at Leona, convinced her ignorance of the Griffin family's power led her to make such naive statements."Mr. Griffin, aren't you worried that the Griffin family might face the same fate as the Stoermer family?" Leona asked.She had retreated to the door but found it would not budge. Her anxiety grew."The Stoermer family? What are you talking about?" Joseph raised an eyebrow, confused.In truth, he was just a distant relative of the Griffin family and was unaware that the Stoermer family had already been eliminated.Seeing Leona's attempts to open the door, Joseph's smile widened.He taunted her. "Leona, you're not getting away. I have people outside keeping watch; you can't open the door."Tonight, you'll stay here with me just like Blair has done so. She was quite cooperative back then. I wonder if you're as skilled as she is."Joseph could not hold back any longer and lunged toward Leona.She screamed in fright and scrambled to avoid him."There's n

Chapter 70

In his office, Joseph slowly approached the unconscious Leona.His two men stood guard, smirking as they anticipated him to finish quickly so they could enjoy Leona themselves.Joseph had done that many times before, and they had benefited handsomely from associating with him.Suddenly, footsteps echoed down the corridor.Before they could react, a figure swiftly approached.One of them shouted, "Who's there? Are you looking for trouble? Mr. Griffin has important business tonight. If you don't want to die, get lost!"Just as he said that, his eyes widened in shock.The intruder had reached him and had him by the throat!Matthias tightened his grip and kicked the other guy.Within seconds, both of Joseph's men were lifeless.Matthias kicked the door open with force.Joseph had just reached Leona and was about to strip her when the door was kicked open, causing him to freeze in terror."Damn it! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Don't you know I have important business t
