Chapter 103
After the viral news about Rory was quickly silenced, the issue soon died down. That Sunday,
Becky decided to stay home and rx. Later in the afternoon, Jessie called to ask if she wanted to
have a drink in Louisa’s bar that night.
Not wanting to go out, Becky refused. She went to bed early that night and woke up before the sun
rose the following day.

It was still early. When Becky parted the curtains, it was still dark out.
She picked up her phone and checked her schedule for the day. There were a lot of things to do.
She had two meetings in the morning and a lunch party at noon.
She sighed slightly. She had a full day ahead of her.
It was rare for Becky to get up so early, so she made the most of it and made herself a hearty
breakfast. By the time she made it to the office, it was only eight forty-five.
Talia had just arrived as well and the two met at the elevator in the parking lot. “Good morning, Miss
Ramos.”
Becky nodded with a smile. “Good morning, Talia.”
Although Talia technically worked for Stevie, she was a qualified secretary to Becky.
Elvin tried to call Becky the previous Saturday when it was revealed that she was Steve’s daughter,
but she didn’t answer.
When Becky arrived at her floor, Elvin was walking over from the other end of the corridor. The
second he saw Becky, his body obviously stiffened.
He always thought that Becky was just some bigwig’s mistress, which would’ve exined how she
suddenly became the manager of Fairway Group. He had no idea that she was in fact Stevie’s only
daughter. Not only Fairway Group but also Harvester Group would be hers in the future.
Elvin had been making things difficult for her since Becky joined thepany. Now that he knew
who she was, he hadn’t slept in two nights, wrought with anxiety.
He had nned to ask Becky out on Saturday to try to curry favor with her, but Becky didn’t answer
his calls. Now he was very nervous to see her in the flesh.
“Good morning.”
Despite his nervousness, Elvin was still a sophisticated man. He managed to greet her without
betraying his true emotions.
Becky looked at him with a faint smile and replied, “Good morning.”
Elvin nodded and strode into the meeting room first.
Now that it was known to all that she was Steve’s daughter, their usual Monday meeting became a
bit more interesting.
Becky found it interesting that Elvin constantlyplimented her, iming that she was promising
and full of potential.
Elvin had held his position for over twenty years, and the employees always tried to stay on his
good side. Now, he found it hard to find the words to tter Becky.
He couldn’t treat her as he did before because Becky’s status was higher than his. But he was used
to being at the top of the hierarchy and he found it hard to suck up to her. The atmosphere was a
little awkward.
Becky looked at Elvin and smiled. “Thank you for your praise.”
Her casual words were like a p in Elvin’s face.
The morning meeting ended with a tense and awkward atmosphere. Then, it was time for Becky’s
second morning meeting, which was about the project in the East Vige.
Although it was a smaller meeting, it turned out to be quite lengthy because they had changed the
n.
It was almost twelve o’clock when the meeting ended. If it weren’t for the fact that Becky needed to
go to a lunch appointment at half past twelve, it might’vested even longer.
After everyone else left, Becky fixed her makeup and was about to leave for the hotel.
As soon as she was ready to go, Talia knocked on the door and said, “Miss Ramos, Denise Casper
is here.”
At the mention of that name, Becky raised her eyebrows. “What is she doing here?”
Talia bit her lip and said, “I think she’s here to apologize to you.”
Becky smirked. “Tsk. I won’t see her.”
She didn’t want Denise to spoil her mood.
