Chapter 175 Not Just Give Up My Love That Easily
"She is doing fine. I brought her breakfast and some soy milk when I left the apartment, " Shirley hid
her disappointment and answered honestly.
"Em... Thank you. I have... I have asked Spark to find another apartment for you. If it is ready, you can
move in today, " He wanted to tell her about the apartment downtown. He had changed his mind since
it was a high-ss one, and
Shirley couldn''t possibly afford it. If she did move in there, it would arouse J''s suspicion.
"Move? Is it really necessary to move, Mr. Si?" Shirley hesitated.
Daniel sat back on the chair and lit a cigarette, "You don''t need to worry about it. I will cover the rent.
The apartment would be big enough for the both of you. It will be morefortable."
The ce Shirley rented was good for one, but it was fairly small for two people.
Shirley nodded eventually and said, "Thank you, Mr. Si."
Shirley realized that Daniel had already taken J under his own wing. He was thanking her for
taking care of J.
"Here is 500 grand. If it''s not enough, you can call Spark anytime you want, " Daniel picked up the

check he prepared and ced it on the edge of the desk.
Shirley did not reach for the check and said, "Oh no. Thank you, Mr. Si, but I have savings. It is enough
for J and I."
Daniel was so kind to J. Shirley was envious.
"Take it, please. J doesn''t have any idea what things are worth. Just buy anything she asks for, and
call Spark if it''s not enough, " Daniel knew J very well. J had no concept of money. Shirley
actually spent more when they stayed together.
"I will make sure that all of the money will be spent for J. Is there anything else, Mr. Si?" Shirley
eventually picked up the check.
Daniel took a drag on his cigarette, expelled the smoke slowly, and said, "Call me after she falls asleep
tonight."
...
Shirley was on the verge of tears. Why couldn''t she get someone like Daniel?
"Yes, I will."
"Umm... you can get back to work now." Daniel flicked the ash from his cigarette and started making
phone calls.
Since Spark acted quickly, he got the perfect apartment for them before noon. He told Shirley right
away that they could move in any time they wanted.
When Shirley got back home at noon, J still seemed a little depressed. She was talking to her
sworn mother, "Yes, I know what you mean, Mother*. I will get home soon."
Shirley brought her lunch and opened the takeout box for her.
"Umm... I don''t want to see him again... That''s it." J took the chopsticks from Shirley. She was
confused about the feast in front of her.
It seemed that Shirley got lunch from Quan Ju Restaurant, but she was not the type of person who
would go there for lunch.
Shirley saw the confusion on J''s face and sat down in front of her, "Your brother told me that you
liked Quan Ju Restaurant."
What Shirley said cleared up the confusion, but J lost her appetite. Thest time she had a row
with Daniel, the takeout he got was also from Quan Ju Restaurant.
She put the chopsticks down and concentrated on the phone call. Her sworn mother L persuaded
her on the phone, "Jane, don''t feel so bad. You should hear the exnation from Daniel first. He is a
good kid. I am his mother, and I know it for sure."
"But I have seen it with my own eyes, Mother*, "
J did not think there was any other exnation for it.
"Jane, I am not defending him, but what you saw might not be the truth. If he really wasn''t reliable, I
wouldn''t force you to be with him. If you two do get marriedter on, but end up unhappy together, your
dad, your mom, and even I would me myself for consenting to it. He can be trusted. Believe me."
J nodded her head and said, "I understand, Mother*, "
She thought that Daniel was truly blessed, as his mom always believed in him.
"Jane, I am not just your sworn mother. I had always treated you as my biological daughter. You know
that, don''t you?" L''s'' face was full of sadness. They were just talking about Daniel and J''s
wedding the day before yesterday.
J would listen to L because L had always been kind to her, like her mom.
"Mother*, you always treat me well. I will listen his exnation...ter..." Jpromised.
L came out of the mansion, adjusted her shawl, and got in the car with a driver. "Yes, that''s right, my
Jane. You don''t need to think about it now. Just rx and take care of yourself. Don''t do anything
stupid, understand?"
"Uh-huh. I won''t."
''It was just a man. It was not worth it. I should keep living my life. Eat well. Sleep well. Don''t make loved
ones worry about me.'' She made up her mind.
After J put down the phone, she picked up the chopsticks again and started to eat her lunch.
As she thought about what L said while eating, she started to believe it. L was right. ''I should not
just give up my love that easily.'' J thought to herself.
"Shirley, I have to go and find Daniel. Don''t wait for me." She should hear what he had to say and give
him a chance.
J rushed out of the apartment right after she spoke. Shirley failed to stop her even she wanted to.
Half an hourter, a woman quickly walked toward thepany''s entrance. Even though she was over
40 years old, she looked like a 30-year old. She was wearing a royal blue shawl and white cropped
pants,pleting her outfit with white heels and red limited-edition handbags.
"Good afternoon! Mrs. Si."
"Good afternoon! Mrs. Si."
"Good afternoon! Mrs. Si."
...
The staff greeted her warmly. Although L was not in the mood, she smiled politely.
The girl from the reception walked toward Mrs. Si when she saw her. She directed Mrs. Si to the
exclusive elevator after the receptionist knew that she was looking for Mr. Si.
On the 88th floor
All the secretaries immediately stood up when they saw Mrs. Si. "Good afternoon, Mrs. Si." they all
greeted.
"Where is Daniel?" L was impatient. She walked toward the CEO''s office and opened the door
herself as she asked them the question.
When she walked into the office, L saw Daniel with a woman.
The woman wrapped her arms around Daniel and put her hands on his shoulder.
Before Daniel could react to the hug, the door opened.
Taken aback, Ivanka let go of Daniel at once and stepped aside.
"Mom, " Daniel said coldly without any expression on his face.
L suppressed her anger, walked in front of Ivanka, and judged her from head to toe.
Seeing L made Ivanka very nervous. "Good afternoon, Mrs. Si, " she said in a low voice.
There was a long silence in the office. L did not say a single word. She was so furious with Daniel
that she did not know where to begin.
"Who is this woman?" L said coldly, looking at her son.
"Poe Yi''s daughter."
L understood everything when she heard the name. She pped Ivanka in the face.
Ivanka''s head shook to one side, with her face donning a big, red handprint.
Daniel witnessed all this indifferently, but there was no emotion on his face.
Ivanka took a deep breath. Instead of being angry, she looked directly into L''s eyes and said, "Mrs.
Si, you must have misunderstood. I was also setup by Poe Yi."
