Chapter 111

Natalie couldn't accept it. Her heart ached horribly.Jacob gave her a profound look and said, "Liesel majored in Financial Management, and she also took other electives related to business. During her time in school, she saved numerous companies from unfavorable contracts. "She graduated from Alden University as valedictorian with a perfect GPA. The nonprofit companies that she proposed are still generating a profit and giving back to society today."Therefore, you and Liesel were never the same. Her proposals are visionary, while yours are worth nothing."Not to mention, she had been my wife at the time. She had dared to become the guarantor because even if something did happen, she had my deep pockets to back her up. I could help her repay those billions of dollars. "But what about you?" Jacob continued. "How much money can you fork out? Do you even have millions of dollars on you?"Natalie was completely dumbstruck. Meanwhile, Elijah was laughing heartily at the side, clear

"Did you say that I can't separate my personal life from my professional one?" Jacob said in a heavy tone. "Natalie, you're not wrong. Indeed, I haven't been able to separate those two."Natalie's furious face froze. "If I was really being fair, then the person who should be in your position now is Liesel and not you, Natalie. And, with your capabilities, you aren't even worthy of stepping through the doors of Ford Corporation."Actually, Jacob knew all of this deep down. However, he still opened the back door for Natalie to enter and sent Liesel to the project department. Now, Natalie actually had the gall to say that he wasn't keeping his personal and professional lives separate. It was ridiculous."If you want me to be fairer like you said, then you should leave Ford Corporation at once," he said icily. "Since you joined the company, you should already be aware of Liesel's abilities."Natalie had kept a constant watch over Liesel's performance. However, it wasn't out of care b

Liesel had a feeling that this deal was not going to happen. However, she'd never thought that Natalie could actually be so foolish. She was so idiotic that it made Liesel want to laugh.But was Jacob really going to do as he said?Liesel's solemn gaze slowly landed on him. "Mr. Ford, can you really make that decision?"Could he really ruthlessly chase Natalie out of Ford Corporation?Jacob looked down slightly, and their gazes met. He merely stared at her without any reaction, but that in itself was enough of a response.He wasn't sure.Indeed, he wasn't even sure if his heart would soften and if he would open the back door for Natalie again in the future.It was ridiculous. Earlier, he'd talked about separating his personal and professional life, but now, he couldn't even guarantee that he'd do this.What else could she ask for?Liesel's smile was mocking. "I won't ask this again."With that, she turned around to leave the office. But suddenly, she heard his voice. "Alden U

Elijah beamed. Evidently, he'd heard what Liesel said. The amusement in his eyes deepened. "It's really difficult to hear you say those words to me. Don't worry. Not only will I come back safe, but I'll even bring you some local specialties."With that, he drove off.Why had Elijah intervened in this matter?Actually, he could have rejected Dash's contract outright. Still, he came to Ford Corporation's office, and he didn't even try to retort when Jacob suggested he go overseas to evaluate the partnership.He and Jacob weren't considered good friends, so how was Jacob able to make him do something?Drew saw the truth—Elijah had come because of Liesel, and he was also going abroad to do the evaluation for Leisel.Even though Elijah had personal motives, at least he was sincere enough. He thought that someone as smart as Liesel would be able to spot it."From the perspective of Mr. Ford's secretary, I actually don't like Elijah that much. However, if I was looking at it from your

"Two years ago, at the negotiation meeting that was held at the Polly Hotel in Fruece, I had completely trampled all over Dash. In the end, he transferred the overseas project to Ford Corporation at a price 20 percent lower than the asking offer. So, why do you think Dash chose you and not me?" Liesel leaned down close to Natalie. There was an obvious chill in her voice. "He didn't choose me because I'm too intelligent. He chose you because you are stupid enough."Each word she uttered was dripping with ridicule."Liesel!" Natalie was so mad that she wanted to hit her.Liesel nonchalantly poured herself a cup of water. In the same cool tone, she said, "Do you really want to fight me now? Are you going to use the hand that's in a plaster cast? If so, I can indulge you."Natalie's eyes darkened. Even maneuvering the wheelchair made her hand hurt. How could she really go up against Liesel? She had no choice but to just gnash her teeth. "I'll prove to you that Dash didn't make a mist

Liesel silently put her glass down and turned to look at Jacob.Today, he was wearing a midnight blue suit with a luxury watch worth millions. His platinum tie clip was in the shape of an iris. As one looked upward, they would be drawn to his strikingly handsome face.Midnight blue was his favorite color.Liesel glanced down at her red gown as she couldn't help but smile.From afar, many might see their red-blue combination and assume they were a couple. What a shame they were already divorced.After the divorce, Liesel's flourishing beauty was something Jacob had never seen before. It was as if she had transformed into a completely different person now.His eyes slightly darkened. As she raised her head at that moment, her composed gaze met his arrogant one. A hint of incomprehensible allure in her gaze seemed to tease him.Though it wasn't her intention, Liesel's misleading gaze would always contradict how she felt.Standing tall on the wide balcony, Jacob's dominant presence

Liesel's calm gaze matched her stunning face. Under the soft lights, she seemed breathtakingly gorgeous in her red gown.Her slender fingers brushed over the swing's ropes. She tightened her grip as she looked away from Jacob.The low hum of a cello came from the banquet hall, akin to a river flowing through the silent night. It was a performance by the students of Alden University's music faculty.Glancing at her watch, Liesel murmured, "Looks like it's almost Ophelia's turn."Earlier, she had promised Ophelia to go on stage for a piano duet with her.Jacob gave a faint grunt in response. He was paying no attention to this matter. Perhaps he thought this was nothing much as Ophelia could handle this on her own."I'll head backstage to meet Ophelia." Liesel glanced at him and was about to leave. Just then, a female student, Vivian Larson, suddenly rushed past and bumped into her.Liesel stopped in her tracks and turned around, only to see her delicate figure from behind. Dressed

It felt like the oppressive presence of someone who had long stood at the pinnacle of power and prestige. This was almost the exact same feeling Vivian got from Jacob.So, this was… his secretary? Vivian felt a lump in her throat. For a moment, she deeply regretted acting recklessly without much thought."Ms. Secretary…" Her voice was dry.Before Vivian could utter an apology, Liesel gently tapped the wooden railing beside her. On the railing sat a stunning bouquet of irises, which accentuated her beauty.Liesel's voice carried a faint hint of amusement. "I'm not his secretary anymore."It felt that she had deliberately chosen this moment to speak. "I'm just the manager. You can call me Ms. Sharp."So, Liesel was not his secretary. Her words seemed to draw clear boundaries between herself and Jacob.Vivian was stunned by her words. Yet, Liesel remained composed. She smiled calmly."Ms. Sharp, I didn't mean to bump into you on purpose. I just got too excited when I saw Mr. Ford.

Vivian's face turned pale at his words. Her lips trembled, and for a long moment, she couldn't find the words to respond.She couldn't blame Lucian for this.Lucian held a deep admiration for both Jacob and Liesel, and he was Liesel's mentor. He had often said that Jacob and Liesel were the most outstanding, intelligent, and courageous entrepreneurs he had ever taught.Lucian held Liesel in such high regard. If he knew she was twisting the truth to flatter Jacob, he would surely be upset.Vivian was at a loss for words.Her every thought seemed laid bare under their sharp gazes. Panic and fear flashed across her face as everyone watched her.She knew well that from the moment she tried to use her cleverness to get ahead, everyone had been waiting for her to fail.They were all jealous and envious, hoping to see her humiliated. No one wanted her to truly succeed and climb the social ladder.At this moment, Vivian was so nervous and frightened that she wanted to cry.Liesel look

Liesel gently sought her opinion.Vivian's heart fluttered.How could someone who had been admitted to Alden University and was valued by Lucian be anything but intelligent? Liesel certainly wasn't foolish.Liesel understood her situation. She knew that everyone was watching her. Those people were waiting for her to fail. They were hoping to see her embarrassed and humiliated. However, Liesel offered her an out and even lifted her up with praise.Liesel was like a living legend in the finance faculty at Alden University. The charity organizations she founded for disabled individuals and women who had lost the chance to attend school were still operating, and they were even profitable enough to help more people each year.That was her gift to Alden University, and also the greatest contribution to those in need.For this reason, she was seen almost as a figure of reverence among some students in the finance faculty. She was the example Lucian always spoke of, an outstanding gradua
