Semua Bab Regretting the Rest of His Years: Bab 11 - Bab 20

At the same time, Sasha listened to Heidi's rant with a resigned expression."Sasha, I swear, Mr. Gallagher is such a fucking idiot. I've never met a more love-struck boss in my life. I'm telling you. As long as that troublemaker Natalie is around, Mr. Gallagher will be bankrupt in two years."As Heidi vented, Sasha remained calm. "Enough complaining, Heidi. What happens with Aidan and Natalie is no longer my concern."I've recommended a few companies to you and already spoken with the marketing managers there. You can go directly for the interviews, and there's a high chance you'll get selected."Hearing Sasha's words, Heidi was instantly moved to tears."Sasha, can I come work with you instead? I don't want to work for anyone else. I just want to work with you. I'll take half the salary."Sasha paused, considering the offer.Since burying Ella, she had opened a high-end private restaurant in her hometown, specializing in business banquets.But business in that field relied he

The man's name was Daniel Marsh. He was Sasha's former boss at the upscale nightclub she once worked at.Back when she was new to the industry, she had no idea what caught his attention. But for some reason, he personally took her under his wing for a while.It was thanks to his guidance that she quickly rose through the ranks at the club.And it was also because of the skills he taught her that she was able to navigate Aidan's company without obstacles.Even when she was nearly assaulted by the diseased heir and Aidan broke his hand, she wouldn't have escaped unscathed if Daniel hadn't stepped in.At that thought, Sasha suppressed the unease in her chest and stepped forward respectfully. "It's been a while, Mr. Marsh. I hope you've been well."Daniel remained as cold and unreadable as ever.Even from 30 feet away, Sasha could still feel the oppressive air around him.He gave her a sidelong glance and said flatly, "Your tactics are getting sloppy, Sasha. Is this really what I t

Meanwhile, Aidan was not doing well.Ever since Heidi and her team had resigned, he had been buried in a mountain of tasks. Everything from employee salaries to company decisions required his personal involvement.Ever since Natalie ran out crying that day, he hadn't tried to console her like he used to. In fact, he had even started rejecting her calls.But what he didn't expect was for Natalie's mother, Joanna Wade, to show up.As soon as she walked into the office, she slapped Aidan in front of the entire staff before he had a chance to greet her."Aidan, do you even know what's been happening? Natalie's been crying at home every day because of you! Is this how you take care of my daughter?"I'm telling you. Even if you're rich now and managed to win her over, it's only because your ancestors are smiling down on you. You're just an orphan, after all."I never approved of you and Natalie being together. It was Natalie who insisted, and I was forced to agree. But now you've made

Sasha flinched instinctively. But after a moment, she composed herself.Aidan had long become a figure of the past to her. His presence no longer mattered, whether he showed up or not.Once she had accepted that, Sasha adjusted her brown fur coat and walked out of the office.In stark contrast to Sasha's calm demeanor, Aidan stood nervously in the dining hall of the private restaurant, feeling like an 18-year-old boy again.He straightened his tie, then quickly checked his hair in the mirror under the orange-yellow lights.He frowned in frustration when he saw a yellow stain on his shirt.He shouldn't have rushed here. He should have gone to the hotel to change before coming.When his fingers brushed against the ring hidden in his suit pocket, the frustration only grew.But when he saw Sasha walking out of the elevator, his chest tightened painfully.It had only been a few months, but Sasha had grown even more beautiful. Her delicate features, framed by her long, curly hair, m

But Daniel wasn't just saying empty words. It was as if he truly believed that his proposal had been successful.Suddenly, Sasha's private restaurant was flooded with customers.Before she could even process what was happening, Heidi told her mysteriously, "You're done for, Sasha! Completely done for!"I just overheard something from a customer. Do you know what I heard? Mr. Marsh has publicly announced that he's preparing to get married to the woman he loves, and that woman is you!"Sasha's pupils shrank in shock.In her panic to stand up, she accidentally knocked over a glass on the table, shattering it into pieces.Heidi looked at her flustered expression and sighed helplessly. "Sasha, I know you're scared of Mr. Marsh, but you can't keep avoiding this. If you don't like him, you need to tell him clearly as soon as possible. He's not someone we can afford to offend."Sasha's gaze landed on the emerald ring sitting on her desk.Of course, she knew she couldn't afford to offen
