Chapter 3
The lobby on the first floor was empty. L took the elevator directly to the 28th floor where the
president office was located. As soon as she got off the elevator, she heard Mike informing the media,
"I will soon be engaged to Sara Ellsworth, daughter of the president of Ellsworth Group. Thanks for
your best wishes. Thank you!"
He will soon... be engaged to Sara Ellsworth... daughter of the president of Ellsworth Group! Sara? Her
bestie over the past 11 years?
Another bomb was dropped on L. Zoe, behind her, turned furious after hearing those words and
intended to beat him.
L plucked hard at his hem of clothes and shook her head at him, as she wanted to learn what Mike
would continue to say.
"Mr. Braxton, it is said that you are dating Carl Nixon''s daughter, L. Now you are going to be
engaged to Miss Ellsworth. Can you exin that?"
Mike, being the General Manager of Nixon Group at the young age of 24, was listed among the most
desirable golden bachelors in the upper ss. Not to mention, his gentle, learned and refined
appearance made him more popr to girls. That was also the reason why L liked him in the first
ce, wasn''t it?
"Yes, I was dating her. But it''s been a long time since we broke up." Mike answered the media, with a
consistent gentle facial expression and a soft tone.
What he said, however, pierced L''s heart like a sharp knife.
She suddenly recalled that she felt ufortable right after drinking the ss of red wine that Mike
handed her, and it was Sara that walked her upstairs.
"Hahaha..." Sneer came from behind, which was so loud that everyone in the hall can hear it, when the
reporters took close-ups of Mike.
All of them looked back curiously and found that the woman who sneered loudly looked familiar.
"L! She is L Nixon! Carl''s beloved daughter!" An experienced reporter recognized L. Just then,
all reporters ran to her, and L was closely surrounded.
Mike''s face didn''t look very well when he saw L. Why was she here in thepany? Where had she
been after drinking the red wine? Mike didn''t love her at all. What he desires was her body, and he was
so close to get thatst night. But he could not find her after greeting Carl, wasting such a good
chance. Damn it!
"Miss Nixon, why do youugh?"
"Do you know anything about President Nixon?"
"Why did you break up with General Manager Braxton?"
The reporters kept raising questions. L looked at nothing but Mike''s displeased face, staring at him
as if he was her enemy.
He made no exnation. Could she draw a conclusion that Mike and his father robbed her father''s
company, abandoned her who has nothing at all then, and was going to be betrothed to her best
friend?
She could not me on anyone else, because Zoe had warned her that Sara was not pure-minded and
she ignored it.
"What do you guys want to know? I will tell you anything. Why did we break up? Well, do you know
what I nicknamed him? Three-Sec Braxton! Yes, hests short in bed. An apple of Sodom. And Sara
Ellsworth, a home wrecker, had an affair with Three-Sec Braxton when we were still together. Now they
join hands to frame up my dad and upy hispany. I will be at daggers drawn with them from this
moment on!"
Everyone kept silent within a few seconds after L finished talking. Mike looked at her with a twisted
face. One third of what she
said was correct. And how dared she call him Three-Sec Braxton? They had been together for three
years. He really should have screwed her to show her if he can onlyst for three seconds.
"L, I understand how you feel right now. Nevertheless, you are over the top by making things up like
this. Conclusive evidence against Mr. Nixon has been provided. My father and I are very disappointed
too. And Sara..." Mike adjusted his mood and resumed his gentle voice. But before he could finish it,
L went into the president office directly with the help of Zoe, not giving him even a nce.
In such a case, the reporters had to focus on Mike again.

Zoe didn''t go into the office together. Instead, he waited outside.
L gently pushed the door and walked into the room. Carl, sitting at the desk and resting his forehead
in the right hand with eyes closed, was immersed in thought.
"Dad..."
"L, here youe." Carl smiled, which brought tears to L''s eyes, as his smile was so unnatural
that it was uglier than crying.
"Dad, don''t be sad. Grandma and I will stay with you, OK?" L tried to make her voice easy and
rxed, but she failed and sobbed when she saw some grey hairs on Carl''s head.
All of a sudden, she realized how unfilial she was, as her dad had provided her such an extravagant life
while she had never thought of repaying him or easing his burden.
"L, I will not be able to offer you whatever you want in the future..." Carl looked at the data on the
computer, feeling as if a knife was cutting his heart.
"Dad, I don''t want anything. I just hope that grandma, you and I can live together, safe and sound." L
walked towards her dad, and gently hugged him who has been protecting her since she was born.
Looking at his sensible daughter, Carl felt much better, and patted the back of her hand. After standing
up slowly from the chair, he packed up his belongings and left.
Carl and L walked out of the office together, while Mike had left. The reporters were still waiting for
them. As soon as they saw Carl, they rushed at him.
"Mr. Nixon, is there anything you want to say about the usations?"
"Mr. Jacob Braxton has expressed that he would not call you to ount for your guilt after you
resigned from the president post. What do you think?"
"President Nixon..."
Carl did not want to exin a word for those fabricated charges at all. Not wanting her dad to suffer
more of this, L said, still with pride, "Why do youpel my dad to admit things that he has never
done? He was framed by those despicable people. There will be evidence proving my father''s
innocence someday."
"Miss Nixon, is Jacob the despicable people that you said?" A reporter was anxious to stir up trouble
and immediately caught the main point.
"I think I have made myself clear. You will know the truth someday." Though knowing nothing about the
business of thepany, L was not timid and would not let others bully her dad wantonly. Jacob,
Mike and Sara, let''s wait and see! Seeing the perseverance on her small face, the man sitting in front
of the television lifted the edges of his sexy lips slightly.
"Boss, Nixon Group has been transferred. Shall we still acquire the group as nned?" The assistant
Joey Cole checked the information that has just been collected. All things were alright, except the
transfer.
All of a sudden, she realized how unfilial she was, as her dad had provided her such an extravagant life
while she had never thought of repaying him or easing his burden.
