Semua Bab Love and Devotion: No Longer His to Claim: Bab 461 - Bab 470

After a short pause, Angela continued, "But you insulted my mother. She is everything to me. Someone like you isn't even worthy of mentioning her name."Angela gazed coldly at the woman on the ground, her expression turning even more icy. Jennifer, however, seemed utterly baffled, as if she hadn't even understood what Angela had said."Leave now. If there's a next time, I won't go easy on you." Angela found this whole encounter utterly dull and waved her hand, dismissing the clueless Jennifer.Jennifer's face flushed red and pale in turns, like she had just swallowed something disgusting. In the end, she tucked her tail between her legs and left in humiliation."Wow, Angie, you were amazing just now! That was a total one-sided beatdown. You think so highly of her, but to me, she's nothing." Zack looked at Angela with sparkling admiration, almost starstruck by her.Angela, however, calmly remarked, "She's Ursula Abbott's niece. I can't underestimate her. Who knows if she's hiding a

Jennifer was momentarily stunned, feeling a bit at a loss.What did Dexter mean by that?What was she trying to do? Wasn't she just playing the role of a devoted woman, trying to sabotage Dexter and Angela's love to boost her own popularity and gain more resources?But why was she even thinking about her objectives all of a sudden?"Mr. Bamford, what do you mean by that?" Jennifer asked in astonishment, genuinely confused.Dexter was visibly impatient. "Drop the act. I'll give you three seconds to decide whether you want to tell the truth or not."Jennifer felt a chill run down her spine.She had been found out? How was that possible? Was it that obvious? She was the top of her acting class—who could out-do her when it came to acting?"Three, two—""I'll talk! I'll talk!" Jennifer couldn't hold it together anymore. Dexter's sharp eyes and commanding presence were simply too much."I… I just wanted to make my path in the entertainment industry smoother."There was no need for

"Jennifer Abbott." Daphne handed a document to Angela.Angela was slightly taken aback, glancing at Daphne with a look of appreciation.The document was clear and concise, summarizing the recent online events with accompanying images, ultimately concluding that Jennifer was here to provoke her and stir up another wave of public opinion."As expected of someone personally assigned to me by Austin—you're impressively thorough." Angela smiled at Daphne, who was only about 24 or 25 years old, with admiration in her gaze.Daphne gave a shy smile, her round eyes bright. "Mr. Howard sent me here to assist you, Ms. Graham. If I didn't give my all, I'd feel bad. However…""What is it?"With just a quick read-through of the document, Angela had already come up with a countermeasure. She planned to turn the situation around and see what Jennifer's true intentions were, then strike where it hurt the most."There have been a lot of doubts about you in the company these past few days. Many pe

Erwin got even more frustrated as he thought about it. The company had spent years building its public image, and he wasn't about to let some newcomer destroy it."Mr. Mack, please have a seat and hear me out first." Angela maintained a gentle and warm attitude. It was hard to be mad at someone who was being nice, so Erwin swallowed back some of his harsher words upon seeing her respectful demeanor."What exactly is going on between you and Dexter now?" he asked directly.Angela's smile faded, her expression turning serious. "Mr. Bamford and I are already divorced. We have nothing to do with each other anymore, and I will handle any remaining matters as soon as possible. Please don't worry."It was important to adopt the right attitude when acknowledging an issue.Just then, Daphne hurried in, looking anxious. She had been about to speak when she noticed Erwin in the room and hesitated."What's going on? Just say it," Erwin prompted.Daphne glanced at Angela, who gave her a no

Although Angela and Dexter had already parted ways, the fact that Angela and Fiona could still maintain a good relationship indirectly proved that Angela herself had done nothing seriously wrong.In other words, their divorce was likely an amicable one, with both parties reaching a mutual agreement and cutting ties without conflict."Ms. Graham, they're really something. A lot of people are now talking about how well you and Madam Fiona get along," Daphne remarked with a smile over lunch.Angela said indifferently, "Did you find the people I asked for? How's the progress?"To her, public opinion was trivial. That matter was already in the past.Daphne was momentarily stunned before replying, "I tried, but HR isn't being very helpful. It seems they're unwilling to cooperate."Without even looking up, Angela said, "If they won't cooperate, just have Raquel and Harry handle it. They must find eight people within three days who are good-looking, in great shape, and have prior livestr
