Chapter 361

Sophie was sitting by the window and staring outside.“What are you looking at?” I asked.“The stars.”“Are you okay?” I looked outside. “It’s going to rain tomorrow. There aren’t any stars tonight.”“If there are stars in your heart, you’ll see them.”I patted Sophie on the head, but she pushed my hand away. “Go to sleep, pregnant lady.”“What’s wrong with being pregnant? Don’t make fun of pregnant women.” She could keep looking if she wanted. I lay down to sleep.Just as I was about to get comfortable, her phone rang.She checked it and declined the call. “Was that Lance again?” I asked.“Yeah.”“Did you tell him?”“I did. I told him that I don’t like being with a player.”“What did he say?”“He said, ‘you have to try everything life offers.’”“And how did you respond?”“I told him he’s never tried dying, so why not try that?”Sophie and I were skilled at arguing. No one could match us, but what did it matter? Life was not a debate where the winner got everything.

Chapter 362

Freeman Corporation was a family business. So, anyone with the last name, “Freeman,” had shares in the company.My dad and uncle each owned 30%. The other 40% was split between Sophie, Bryce, Oliver, and me, with each of us having 10%.Since Bryce passed away without children, my uncle decided to give his 10% to Sophie. However, she did not want it, so that 10% was still sitting there.The executives were all eyeing it. The company had a rule that executives who had worked there for 20 years or more could receive shares as bonuses. My dad and uncle had planned to give 5% each as bonuses, but they did not need to anymore.That 10% share was a prize that everyone wanted.These bonuses were useful. It helped keep people loyal to the company. Big companies were worried that experienced employees who knew the company well might leave. This would result in a big loss.It also helped to keep the shareholders in check.However, Oscar was not friendly with me. He was probably worried tha

Chapter 363

According to my knowledge, Freeman Corporation had taken over Cameron Hill, but I was not sure about the details.One of our branches handled land development, so I called Sophie. She had just arrived at the office and had not even taken a sip of water.“What’s up, Ms. Chairman?”“Check the details on Cameron Hill.”“Okay, hang on.”A while later, Sophie called me back. “Cameron Hill is government-allocated land. Zach didn’t pay the full amount previously. The contract says that if construction doesn’t start within six months, the government can reclaim the land, keep the money, and re-auction it to other companies.”“Zach agreed to that? He must’ve been really confident about the project back then,” I said.“Everything was fine until Cecilia screwed it up.”“Got it.”“Why are you so interested in Cameron Hill?”“It’s one of your branch’s key projects for the second half of the year.”“What? I haven’t even looked at the plans for the second half yet!”“There’s no rush. Just

“Yonder Trading won’t just last five months. It’ll last five years or more. As long as I’m alive, Yonder Trading will survive,” Zach said while he looked at me. It was as if he was making a promise.This was an office, not a wedding. I did not need such dramatic declarations.I smiled and took a sip of water. “Talk is cheap, Zach. You’ve been in business long enough to know that words don’t prove anything. But I’ll keep the contract. Once I’ve decided, I’ll let you know.”“Alright.” He placed his hands on the table but did not get up. Instead, he asked, “Want to have lunch together?”“I’m eating in the company cafeteria. If you don’t mind that, you can join me.”Most of the executives ate in the cafeteria unless they had appointments. I needed to get to know everyone better for them to accept me.“Sure,” Zach said without hesitation.When we entered the cafeteria at lunch hour, everyone stared at us.The cafeteria had two sections: one for regular employees and one for executiv

“I trust you.” He gave me another piece of pork rib. “The food in your cafeteria is delicious. I wonder if I can come here often for lunch?”“You can. Just mention my name.”Zach left after lunch, and I went back to my office to rest. There was a couch in the office, so I could take a comfortable nap.As I passed the staff lounge, I overheard several women talking about me and Zach.“Ms. Freeman is such a love-struck fool. After Zach hurt her like that, she still brought him to the office on her first day.”“Yeah. How could she be the acting chairman? I don’t know what Mr. Freeman was thinking.”“She’s lucky to be born with everything handed to her. She’s the heiress to Freeman Corporation.”“If she runs the company, it’ll probably be called Gordon Corporation in a few years.”“After the Gordon family kicked him out and Cecilia cheated on him, Zach is now clinging to Ms. Freeman.”“He’s not only clinging, but he’s also using her as a rebound.”“Hahaha. Neither of them is an

Chapter 366

Nathan Sullivan was a bit chubby and short. He was not even as tall as my bookshelf. His hair was also messy, like a dog had licked it. Even flies would not land on it.He stood before my desk and adjusted his glasses. “What’s up, Cassia?”I noticed that he called me by my first name instead of “Ms. Freeman.” That meant he did not respect my position as acting chairman.I stared at him in silence until he started to feel uncomfortable.He cleared his throat awkwardly and said, “Cass…”Then, he stopped and quickly corrected himself. “Ms. Freeman.”“Is your computer broken?” I asked out of the blue, and he was confused.“Huh?”“If your computer isn’t broken, check the project application I just submitted in the system.”“Ms. Freeman, I don’t think Yonder Trading is the best choice—”“I don’t need your opinion on contracts over ten million.” I interrupted him.A department manager should not be able to question my decisions. They saw me as someone with no authority.He was sho

Chapter 367

“I don’t discuss business after work.”“We don’t have any personal stuff to talk about.”He made it sound like I wanted to talk about personal matters with him. I could not care less about his problems.“I’m hanging up, then,” I said.“I’ll drop by Freeman Corporation tomorrow morning to see you.” Then, he hung up.‘That jerk.’ My heart was racing with anger.He treated Sophie terribly but acted as if nothing ever happened. Even if he had no feelings for her, what was wrong with talking sincerely with her?Was it so hard to thank Sophie for all the care she had given him?Cameron Hill was a big opportunity, so everyone with power wanted a piece of it.If Freeman Corporation had teamed up with Jenkins Corporation to acquire Cameron Hill, it could have become a top project. However, Gordon Corporation had acquired it, and it had been sitting idle for almost six months. If the approval for the project expired before any progress was made, the hill would be viewed as abandoned. As

Chapter 368

She was confident and easygoing. Before I could say anything, Oliver blurted out, “Do you even know where we’re going? What if it’s not on the way?”He was being very rude to her.I smiled and said, “Sure, get in.”I did not care if it was convenient or not. I would take her wherever she needed to go.Oliver looked annoyed, but I nudged him. “Move over.”The girl got in and sat across from me. She was wearing skinny jeans that showed off her long legs. I could also smell a light fruity perfume on her.She was gorgeous and the kind of girl you would call the queen on campus. She was bold and impossible to miss.I could not tell if her double eyelids were natural or not, but they looked perfect.She smiled and said, “I’m Mabel Wilton. I’ve seen you in magazines. You’re even prettier in person.”I knew that I looked good, and she sounded genuine. “Thanks. Where are you going?” I said.“Just drop me off at the subway station ahead.”“We can take you wherever you need to go.”“O

Chapter 369

“She likes Oliver. It’s so obvious that I could tell without looking.”“You don’t use your eyes anymore?” I shot back in annoyance. “Whatever. We’re already here.”“Girls these days are sneaky. Just look at Cecilia.”“Don’t mention her.”When we got back to the table, Mabel was trying to chat with Oliver. However, he was busy on his phone.As I approached, he immediately put his phone down and helped me into my chair. “Cassia, I ordered a carbonara and a bruschetta. Do you want anything else?”“You decide. Just ask Ms. Wilton if she wants something.”“Just call me Mabel,” she said warmly. “Can I call you Cassia?”“Sure.”While we waited for our food, Mabel’s phone kept ringing. She would glance at it and quickly decline the calls.Looking a little flustered, she said, “Sorry about that. I’ll turn it off.”She did not even have to explain. I was pretty sure it was that rich guy calling. Sophie leaned over and whispered, “That guy’s either not as good-looking as Oliver or not

Chapter 370

Julian was acting crazy again. Even though Wilson Corporation was struggling, he was still out here spending money like it was nothing. He wasted so much money. I also noticed Mabel looking at him with mockery and disdain.She probably knew about the Wilson family’s situation. That was why she rejected his advances.She was not stupid. She seemed to have a good sense of what was coming.I observed Julian quietly while Sophie smiled and said to the manager, “This guy is the president of Wilson Corporation, and he’s worth a fortune. A small restaurant like yours isn’t even a challenge for him. You should get your boss here. Mr. Wilson will buy this place for double the price.”The manager was shocked. Getting a big ego boost from Sophie’s words, Julian pointed at the manager and said, “Get your boss. I’m buying this restaurant, and you can kick these people out.”“We’ll wait.” Sophie sat down to continue eating. “Once you buy it, you can ask us to leave.”“Sophie, are you trying
