Chapter 1069


    Jay walked away with a steely resolve.


    Marilyn slouched on the ground dejectedly, tears of sorrow streaming down her face. With a vast,


    hazy, and hopeless future ahead of her, she racked her brains to think of a way out.


    She remembered Ken''s words. ''Do you know who Ben really is, Marilyn? You''ve picked up a


    treasure! Listen, he’s Jay Ares, the former president of Grand Asia with a worth of trillions. You’d


    better clutch onto this gold bar tightly because when he returns to his position one day, you can just


    pluck off a single hair from his sheep wool and you and Tiger will be able to lead a life of pleasure."


    Marilyn gritted her teeth. "I won’t give up on you, Ben."


    Grand Asia''s office building.


    Angeline crossed her arms and stood in front of the french windows on the ninth floor, staring down


    at Grand Asia’s main entrance.


    She would raise her wrist to look at her watch from time to time. A quarter of an hour had passed


    since the working day started, but Jay had yet to show up. She was beginning to feel anxious now.


    Even though he and Marilyn were not married, they


    had lived together under the same roof for so many years, hence he would more or less look at their


    rtionship differently.


    There was no doubt that his mood would be affected after knowing that Marilyn had used and


    deceived him.


    She was worried that his health would be affected if h e got too angry.


    Though when she saw the familiar figure appearing at Grand Asia''s main entrance at this very


    moment, Angeline’s taut nerves finally loosened up.


    In order to distract him from his worries, Angeline decided to assign a few tasks for him. She rolled


    up therge stack of documents on her desk before turning around and walking out.


    Jay made a beeline for the Cyber Security Department. After taking several peeps at him and


    noticing that he looked like his normal, calm self, Grayson secretly let out a sigh of relief.


    Not long after that, Angeline walked up to Jay with arge stack of documents, dropping them all on


    his desk before ordering, "Ben, I need you to handle these documents for me. They’re urgent. Hand


    them in before you get off work today."


    Jay stared at the documents that had piled up like a tiny hill on his desk before turning to look at


    Angeline speechlessly.


    This brat had to be picking a quarrel with him on purpose, right?


    "I won''t be able to finish it," he said.


    Stunned, Angeline said, "Just do as much as you can."


    Jay,


    Jay pushed the documents to one corner of the desk, then switched on theputer, ignoring the


    stack of documentspletely.


    Angeline looked extremely gloomy and puzzled. She might be a fearsome female president who


    everyone was terrified of, but she had no authority over him at all.


    "These documents are urgent. Deal with them first." She pushed the documents to him.


    Jay questioned, "Are you sure they’re really that important?"


    Angeline,"..."


    "Of course, they''re important."


    Jay said sarcastically. "Turns out that you can just ''do as much as you can’ when ites to Grand


    Asia’s urgent documents."


    Angeline,"..."


    Her face turned crimson red with anger. "That''s because I''m worried you''ll be too exhausted."


    As soon as she said those words, rustling sounds could be hearding from behind them. Jay


    and


    Angeline turned around and saw the employees pulling out tissues to plug their ears.

    "Please continue, Ms. Severe. We won''t listen."


    All of them were snickering uncontrobly.


    Jay stared speechlessly at Angeline. His gaze was clearly a condemning one that was meant to


    say,'' Choose your words wisely in public’.


    However, he had underestimated Angelinas brazenness. Angeline roared at the employees without


    warning. "I want all of you to turn around and close your eyes."


    The employees followed her instructions and turned around while closing their eyes.


    Jay looked at Angeline. "What are you trying to do?"


    Angeline said, "You’d better listen up. I''m going to confess to you now."


    Jay was so astonished that he could hardly keep his tall frame still. He had never seen a girl


    pursuing a guy, not even on TV.


    Nevertheless, he nodded for some odd reason and epted her request to confess to him.
