Chapter 681

Frowning, Chelsea reached for the blanket to wrap herself tighter before letting Tobey leave.Tobey chuckled softly. As he stood up, he couldn't help pinching her cheek before heading out of the bedroom.A few minutes later, he was back.Chelsea, who was still groggy and exhausted, felt herself being pulled into his strong embrace.She felt at ease. Without even opening her eyes, she snuggled into him and found a comfortable position before falling back into a deep sleep.The next morning, Chelsea's alarm hadn't gone off yet, but she was already half awake.Lately, she'd been waking up early for training, so her body had adjusted to the routine. But after last night's activities with Tobey, she felt sore and sluggish. She didn't want to get up.That darn man remembered her agreeing to go to the training camp late today, and he took full advantage of it.Luckily, he didn't leave a mark on her neck. Otherwise, she would've definitely exploded in anger.Now, she refused to open h

The thing was, Jimmy wasn't entirely wrong.It was Tobey who had proposed marriage and used Liesel's name to pressure Chelsea to marry him.That was why he had rushed to buy a pair of wedding rings. They had to have them.Pursing her lips, Chelsea said, "But I work in showbiz. Do you want me to wear this ring and have my fans stop supporting me?"She was thinking ahead.She had never intended to rely on Tobey. In her mind, she and Tobey were always going to split up, so the wedding ring was irrelevant.That was why, from the start, she hadn't planned on making their relationship public.How could she put it?To her, Tobey was the kind of man she couldn't show off. Yes, that was how she saw him."Just wear it when we're with Liesel and the others. Otherwise, they'll start talking again," Tobey suggested.Oh, so she didn't need to wear it during competitions.Chelsea let out a relieved breath and lowered her eyes. She slipped her soft fingers through his. She gripped his hand

Chapter 683

Social media exploded with outrage."Drew's betrayal of Ford Corporation was inevitable, wasn't it? First, Liesel left for Hardin Group. Of course, Drew would have his own agenda. Among the Iron Triangle of Ford Corporation, only Charles, Jacob's childhood friend, remains.""This is sickening. Liesel's leaving doesn't really count as a betrayal. She divorced Jacob, after all, so staying at Ford Corporation would've been awkward. But Drew? What's his excuse?"Jacob gave him everything. And yet, he stole confidential information and embezzled a fortune! Jacob had given him money and shares, only to end up raising an ingrate!""Ungrateful bastard!""He deserves to rot in prison!"Most of the netizens condemned Drew's betrayal. Because of his ties to Liesel, she was caught in the storm too. Ford Corporation's shareholders and loyalists smeared her name, calling her and Drew birds of a feather.Some even claimed Drew had turned against Ford Corporation because Liesel had influenced h

Drew didn't want Liesel to see him like this."I need to know the truth, Drew."Liesel felt a pang of sadness at the sight of him. Back then, she had known that Ford Corporation wasn't a place he could stay for long. It was no longer the right fit for him. She had wanted to help him find another path, but she had underestimated Charles' ruthlessness.Both she and Drew knew too many of Ford Corporation's secrets. The only reason she had managed to leave safely was because Jacob carried guilt toward her. But Drew? They had no such reservations about him.With all the classified information he possessed, there was no way Ford Corporation would just let Drew walk away and start fresh somewhere else.In the future Charles had mapped out for him, Drew was supposed to remain an unremarkable employee until the day he retired and faded into obscurity.Drew's voice was hoarse. "Forget about me. Just let it be."He was exhausted.He wasn't naive. He knew exactly who had set him up. And he

As Liesel stepped into Ford Corporation, hushed whispers rippled through the employees.They used to see her as a savior. If she had stayed, the smart system and anticancer drugs would have belonged to Ford Corporation, not Hardin Group.But now, she was a traitor in their eyes, the one who had stripped Ford Corporation of what should have been theirs.They thought this way only because Liesel had threatened their personal interests. People were inherently selfish creatures.Natalie spotted Liesel from a distance as soon as the latter arrived at Ford Corporation. Hiding in a corner, she watched closely, and the smile on her face grew colder by the second.Liesel noticed her too. She raised her gaze slightly and saw the nameplate pinned to Natalie's chest—Head of Administrative Department.Her? Head of Administrative Department?Liesel's expression darkened.Natalie strutted over in her high heels. More and more employees took advantage of a break, strolling around as if they we

Liesel's parents had died in a car accident caused by a drunk driver. In their final moments, they had shielded her with their bodies, whispering that she was their most precious treasure. There was no way anyone could claim she had stolen her family's fortune.It was all nonsense fueled by Natalie's jealousy and bitterness."You know exactly why Ford Corporation fell apart," snapped the HR manager. Her voice was dripping with disdain. "It was because of you."You seduced the vice president, broke up his marriage, and then stole his ex-wife's position. You pushed Ms. Sharp out of the company and into the arms of Hardin Group."If it weren't for you, she'd still be with Mr. Ford, negotiating deals and representing Ford Corporation at the financial summit. But no, you had to play the homewrecker and act like the victim. How shameless can you be?"The other employees, who were quietly observing the confrontation, began to murmur in agreement. They knew something felt fishy and suspec

"That idiot Natalie left?" Charles clicked his tongue. "Apologies, I have no idea what got into her. She insisted on causing trouble for you."Charles' casual apology was devoid of any sincerity.Liesel lowered her gaze slightly. "Every department at Ford Corporation has cameras. You knew I was coming today, and you knew Natalie was a ticking time bomb."Charles had anticipated Natalie's outburst and let it happen. Like an owner unleashing a rabid dog, he waited until Liesel dealt with the mess before sauntering in with his hollow apologies.Charles' polite smile faltered. "We both know how these things work. No need to spell it out. As long as we're both clear, that's enough.""I'm not the type to swallow my pride, so you'll have to endure a few unpleasant truths." Liesel chuckled dryly.Charles' eyes narrowed. "Elijah must really be treating you well. You've gotten bold.""Or maybe I've always had an attitude problem," Liesel shot back. She had always been like that. It was on

"Who do you think it is?" Liesel's voice was calm. "Could it be Matthew? The same man who's tried to screw me over more times than I can count?"She didn't bother to sugarcoat it.Matthew was Jacob's uncle, the man who helped raise him after his father died. For a while, Jacob even saw him as a father figure and idolized him.Charles' expression darkened as he stared at Liesel.Liesel hit the mark.Matthew was the real culprit. He'd funneled Ford Corporation's funds into offshore accounts, stolen corporate secrets, and sold them overseas to buy influence and connections. Every last crime was traced back to him.Jacob wanted to protect Matthew, so he needed to sacrifice Drew.Drew had probably guessed it was him. That's why he'd sat in that interrogation room, silent as a stone."What a bastard. Are there any decent people left in the Ford family?" Liesel laughed.Charles' face grew darker. "Ms. Sharp, some thoughts are better left unsaid. Mr. Ford is an honorable man. He'd nev

"You're as arrogant as ever," Charles muttered. "I guess we're ending this on a sour note today."Liesel ignored him, leaving nothing but the sharp outline of her retreating figure.On the other hand, Charles felt a weight settle in his chest. It wasn't going to be easy from now on.He'd assumed Liesel would know better than to get involved. They could've kept to their lanes, but she'd proven him wrong.Charles would have to deal with Drew sooner rather than later. If Liesel really started digging, they'd uncover things that could burn Ford Corporation to the ground.His gaze shifted to the phone sitting on the table, which was still connected to an open call. "You heard all that, didn't you? This isn't me refusing to help Matthew, I just can't. You know what Liesel's like."On the other end of the line, Edward rubbed his temples. "I'll handle it. Thanks for trying."The two weren't on friendly terms. Charles had called Edward the moment he knew Liesel was coming to Ford Corpora

"Will this be us someday too? We know plenty of things… What if we're forced to take the fall one day? When Ms. Sharp was here, at least someone had our backs. But now that she's gone, who would care if people like us lived or died?"Drew can't even protect himself. What chance do we have?"The short-haired secretary sounded like she was trying to convince herself, but her words carried an unmistakable sense of shared dread.It was true. Drew had once been a high-ranking figure in Ford Corporation, yet when it came time to cut him loose, they didn't hesitate. Compared to him, the other secretaries were nobodies.Back then, whenever they messed things up, Liesel had been there to clean up the aftermath. But without her, no one would care for them.The atmosphere in the secretarial department grew heavy.But no one dared to quit during hard times. Nobody wanted to. Sure, Ford Corporation paid handsomely, and though anxiety crept in, they knew fortune favored the bold. They'd been h
