    that Gwendolyn had sat at the head of the table before even realizing what thetter had said.

    She fixed her gaze on Suzanna and made no response Gwendolyn’sughter unnerved Suzanna, and

    backward.


    Just as she was about to turn and leave, four men in police uniforms appeared at the conference


    room’s door and knocked politely.


    “Excuse me.


    May we know who’s Suzanna Kleppen?” As soon as Suzanna heard that they were looking for her, she


    was stunned.


    “What is it about?” Seeing that she was the one who responded, the policemen immediately walked


    toward her with stern expressions.


    She was so frightened that the color drained from her face.


    “Have you… made a mistake? I’m a good andw-abiding citizen!” “We’ll be the judge of whether or


    not you’re innocent.


    Pleasee with us.


    ” “No! I’m not going!” Mr. Ward and Mr. Ulmer are inside, so there’s no way of hiding what I did.


    I had hoped Jonathan would be able to protect me, but I never expected him to end up in the doghouse


    quicker than me.


    In any case, I can’t get thrown into jail.


    Once I go there, my career and future will be in utter shambles!” Something seemed to ur to her,


    and she hurried over to Gwendolyn.


    Tossing aside her pride, she crouched at Gwendolyn’s feet, tugged at her hand, and pleaded, “Was it


    you who told them toe? Gwendolyn… Ms. Shalders, I admit defeat.


    I apologize I only harbored malicious intent toward you because of a moment of jealousy.


    Please spare me, will you?” Gwendolyn gently lifted Suzanna’s chin with the tip of her finger and stared


    straight into thetter’s eyes.


    Grinning, she remarked, “Your apology reeks of fear and hope.


    You know better than me just how sincere it is.


    ” “No! I mean every word I said! I was wrong, Ms. Shalders.


    It was my fault.


    ” “If you were merely trying to pick a fight with me for rivial reasons, I’d only fire you for conspiring with


    Jonathan Flint to take over my position.


    However, you gave me such a surprise.


    I underestimated you.


    If I don’t send you to jail, it’d be an insult to that impressive performance you put onst night.


    ” Although Suzanna bowed her head and sobbed bitterly, she was seething with rage inwardly.


    This b*tch sure spouts a load of crazy talk! She’s such a bully! Once I get out of this predicament, I’ll


    definitely find a chance to get rid of her.

    heart, she feigned a look of remorse and opened her mouth to say something.


    Suddenly, she recalled a specific word Gwendolyn had just said.


    “Did you say you’re going to fire me?” How dare she say things like that when she’s only a director


    Does the entirepany belong to her because she’s friendly with the boss? Bending down slightly,


    Gwendolyn leaned near Suzanna’s car with a smile that did not reach her eyes.


    “I never told you this, but you’re standing on Gwendolyn Shalders Harris’ territory.


    ” She spoke slowly and clearly when she mentioned her name, and her eyes glittered.


    The seat at the head of the table was like a throne.


    However, despite Gwendolyn’s petite size, she did not seem out of ce as she sat there.


    On the contrary, she exuded a distinguished and cial air.


    Thud! Suzanna slumped onto the floor.


    She said… that this is herpany.


    She said herst name is… Harris.


    Suzanna covered her mouth, and her eyes became as round as saucers.


    She was too shocked to speak.


    Even when the policemen stepped forward to escort her away, she still had yet to snap out of her grief


    and despair.


    After getting rid of two lousy employees, I can finally get a couple of days of peace.


    Gwendolyn was busy working at her desk just before noon when Elisha knocked on the door and


    walked in.


    Thetter said impassively, “Ms. Shalders.


    Mr. Harris has something urgent to discuss with you and asked you to go to his office when you’re done


    with your work.


    ” Treyton has something urgent to discuss with me? Judging from the look on her face, it doesn’t seem


    like it’s good NEWS.


    Gwendolyn did not waste any time.


    She took two minutes to put away her things, then headed swiftly to the office on the highest floor.


    As soon as she opened the door, she saw Treyton sitting at the desk with his back toward her.


    His head was tilted upward slightly as though he was admiring the mural on the wall.


    “Treyton?” Since they were the only ones in the office, she did not have to pretend anymore.


    He spun around and said, “Surprise!” In his hand was a lunch box.


    He opened the lid, and the smell of fragrant herbs and spices filled the air.


    “Flora said I’m mistreating you because I always let you have food from the cafeteria for lunch, so she


    made your favorite grilled beef and sent it over.


    Are you surprised?” “Is this what you meant by ‘something urgent?” she asked, amused by his childish

    lunch box, then got up and strode toward her with a doting smile tugging at the corners of his lips.


    “It goes without saying that the task of ensuring my dearest princess doesn’t go hungry is a top priority.


    ” Although Gwendolyn was silent, the twinkle in her eyes betrayed her feelings.


    He led her over to the couch and sat her down.


    Several dishes had already been set out on the coffee.

    She took a whiff.


    As expected, Flora is an excellent cook.


    Fer cooking is way better than the cafeteria’s food.


    As she ate, she said, “It’s delicious, but there’s no need to do so in the future.


    If I keeping to your office to have lunch with you, sooner orter, your subordinates will be


    suspicious.


    ” Treyton could not refrain fromughing.


    “Since you got here, Flora doesn’t listen to me.


    You should tell her yourself when you go back tonight.


    ” She nodded, then lowered her head and carried on eating.


    She was rather hungry indeed and unable to resist Flora’s tasty cooking.


    Hence, she ate with such gusto that her cheeks were bulging with food.


    Seeing her eating like a squirrel was so dorky and adorable to him that he could not stop himself from


    touching the tip of her nose affectionately.


    Gwendolyn smiled at him and continued eating.


    The atmosphere inside the office was lively as they chattered away while eating.


    Suddenly, Elisha knocked on the door and entered the room.


    He stood near the door, and said softly, “Mr. Harris, Ms. Ferguson is here.


    ” Gwendolyn looked up and nced at Treyton subconsciously.


    However, she saw that his expression darkened instantly.


    Elisha also wore a strange look on his face.


    “She has been waiting outside for a while.


    Should I show her in?” “I’m busy,” he answered without a second thought.


    Hence, Elisha had no choice but to leave begrudgingly.


    After the door closed behind her, the warm and friendly atmosphere in the office was restored.


    Treyton speared a piece of juicy grilled beef with his fork and ced it on Gwendolyn’s te.


    “Eat up.


    You’re too thin.


    ” Distracted by her thoughts, she ventured, “Treyton, you seem to dislike your fiancée a lot.


    ” His expression turned grave, and he radiated a cial aura.


    He uttered in disgust, “Fiancée? She’s not worthy of that title.


    She’s nothing but a shameless little snob.


    ” Observing the look on his face, it appeared there was more to the couple’s engagement than met the


    eye.

    further as he did not seem willing to talk about it.


    However, she could not help feeling somewhat curious about his remark that his fiancée was


    shameless.


    How weird of a person would that woman have to be to make someone as gentle as Treyton so


    disgusted by her? Noticing the wicked smile ying on her lips, he piped up.


    “What evil n are you hatching? Hurry up and eat.


    ” Gwendolyn nodded obediently.


    She finished eating ten minutester.


    Walking out of the office, she immediately spotted Eloise, who was still pestering Elisha.


    It was clear that Eloise had been arguing until she was blue in the face, and she spoke in an


    increasingly threatening tone.


    Looking away, Gwendolyn stared straight ahead as she headed toward the elevator.


    “Stop right there!” Suddenly, a high-pitched voice rang out behind her, and she felt someone grab her


    wrist.


    Eloise stepped in front of her and peered at her.


    “It’s you! Why are youing out of Trey’s office?” Gwendolyn arched a brow and shot her an easy
