As soon as Frank f
finished speaking, several shareholders chimed in

“Yeah, it’s the same for me. Everything is in chaos! What used to be done by three people is now
dumped on one! Who can handle that?”
“If this keeps going on, I’m afraid that Empyria Group is bound for bankruptcy!”
“Let’s be honest, even though you are the founder of Empyria Group, Ms. Lewis, you have been
absent from thepany in recent years, and you have to change things slowly, not all at once!”
Ang didn’t respond to theirments. Instead, she looked calmily at Brenda and said, “Show me
the recent business activities of the department Mr. ck is in charge of”
Frank was startled “Ms. Lewis, what do you mean? You don’t trust me?”
Ang took the documents Brenda handed to her, smiling. “Mr. ck, I trust data more than you.
After all, data doesn’t lie.
“Your” Frank was furious, his face livid Ang, however, had already closed the file and was looking
at him, her eyes filled with coldness.
“ording to this report, Mr. ck, your department is currently handling only five projects. Three
of these projects are due in six months, while the remaining two, which started a year ago, are yet
to bepleted
“You shouldn’tin to me but reflect why you couldn’tplete even two projects in a year
with so many people in your department!”
Frank’s face turned pale with Ang’s words, feeling unterly humiliated. Gritting his teeth, he said.
“Those two projects are in their final stages, and everyone else is busy with their own projects. We
can’t just drop everything else to clean up these two messes, right?”
Ang remained stem. That’s your business to figure out. I don’t need a report on how you n to
handle it. I want results. Also, your department hasn’t secured any partnerships this year. If your
teams can’t make profit for thepany, I’ll consider shutting them down by the year’s end”
Frank’s face was ashen, and he stared at Ang. “Ms. Lewis, thispany isn’t just yours. You
can’t make decisions on your own.”
Ang raised an eyebrow at him, speaking slowly. “Then let’s wait and see the profits at the end of
the year. If your department continues to lose money, it will also affect the dividends of other
shareholders”
At these words, the way all the shareholders looked at Frank changed. Those who had nned to
sing the same tune with Frank felt a chill sent down their spines.
Ang didn’t look at Frank again, speaking indifferently. I will set quarterly and annual ns for
each department. Those who are too far off the mark by year’s end will either have to hand over
their department to someone else or shut it down”
Seeing that no one else spoke, Ang stood up. “If there’s nothing else, let’s call it a day?
Frank stared intently at her retreating figure, his eyes filled with coldnes!
Ang was busy with her work for the next few days, barely talking to Keh. They only saw each
other when leaving in the morning and returning in the evening
Soon, it was the day before Brenda’s birthday. After work, Ang went straight to Jovelle Fashion
to pick up the dress she had made for Brenda.
As soon as she entered the mall, she met Jennifer and Donna Sinir, arm in arm, shopping
together.
Both of them were surprised upon seeing Ang
Donna frowned at her, “Ang, what are you doing here!!”
“I have some things to take care of
Although Donna was her husband’s mother, Ang was well aware that Donna had always favored
Jennifer and firmly believed she should be Keh’s wife. No matter how much Ang tried to
please her over the years, she was never in Donna’s eyes.
But Ang hade to terms with it and no longer treated Donna as seriously as before.
Seeing Ang about to leave, Donna said with a hint of dissatisfaction, “I want to buy a couple of
dresses. Since we’ve run into each other here.e over and give me your opinion.”
Donna used to end up with dresses that didn’t quite suit her. After shopping with Ang a few
times, she found out that Ang always had a knack for picking out the perfect dresses for her.
She would always receivepliments from otherdies afterward, so she used to have Ang by
her sale while shopping
Today, she was shopping with Jennifer, and although Jennifer picked out some pretty dresses, they
somehow didn’t feel as perfect as the ones
Ang chos.
Hearing Donna’smanding tone, Ang replied indifferently, “I have other things to do. You
should ask Jennifer to help you.”
With that, Ang turned and left directly.
Donna was fuming with anger. She stared coldly at Ang’s retreating figure and gritted her teeth.
Im so mad. I never should have let her marry Keh!”
“Mrs. Sinir, please don’t be upset, It’s just the way Ang is, and it wasn’t her intention”
Donna’s face immediately soured, her brow furrowing without a word.
Jennifer looked at her, seemingly hesitant to speak, then stammered, “Mrs. Sinir… There’s
something about Ang… I’m not sure if 1 should tell
you
“What is it! Just say it
“Recently, Ang was seen fooling around with a gigolo at a bar. It got caught on camera and was
disyed on the screen during my grandfather’s birthday party… Most of the noble families in
Lithoria save it.
Donna was furious and couldn’t believe it. “She really did that?”
Jennifer nodded, her face filled with sorrow. “I don’t know why Ang would do such a thing.
Keh tried to defend her and even announced their marriage in public
Donna gritted her teeth in anger. She had always had reservations about Ang. Now, Ang had
even gone as far as to cheat on Keh!
“Jennie, I have something else to do, so I can’t continue shopping with you today. Do visit me when
y
you’re free.”
“Sure, Mrs. Sinchir. But please, don’t sell anyone that I was the one who told you this. Otherwise,
Ang will think I’m speaking ill of her behind
her back”
Donna gripped her hand, nodding “Don’t worry, Jennie. I won’t say a word.”
Watching Donna leave hurriedly, Jennifer sneered smugly.
After a while, Ang had just picked up the dress from the store when she received a call from
Keh.
He spoke coldly. “Where are you?”
“I’m at the entrance of Imperial Mall, What’s up?”
“Wait there. I’ll be there in thirty minutes”
Ang was about to ask what was wrong, but Keh had already hung up.
In less than half an hour, Keh’s car pulled up in front of Ang
Noticing that Keh was driving himself today, Ang put her gown in the back seat and sat on
the passenger’s side.
“What’s so urgent that you needed to see me?” she asked.
Keh’s face was cold as he drove. “We’re going to deal with your scandal about the gigolo!”
Ang frowned, puzzled, “What do you mean?””
“You’ll see when we get there.”
A Keh drove up to the entrance of Sinir Manor, Ang began to understand what he
meant..
Recalling her recent encounter with Donna and Jennifer at the Imperial Mall, Ang couldn’t help
but scoff at how quickly the Sinir family had learned that,
As they entered the living room, Donna sat on the sofa, her expression cold.
Upon seeing Ang, Donna red at her as if she wanted to p Ang right then and call her a
bitch.
“Keh, Eheard Ang was picking out gigolos at a bar. Is that true?” she asked.
Keh’s face was sullen, “Who’s been gossiping to you?”
Donna mmed her cup down on the table, seething with anger. “It doesn’t matter who told me!
What
matters is whether it’s true of Holl”
12:21 PM
Keh was about to deny it, but Ang suddenly spoke up from behind him. “It’s true. But
It’s true. But you didn’t ask us here just to confirm this, right?”
Before they arrived, Donna had already watched the surveince footage. She was so furious she
could barely catch her breath.
Donna looked at Ang with a disdainful expression. “I’m d you dare to admit it! I called both of
you here today because there’s another matter to discuss!”
Ang looked at Donna calmly, waiting for her to continue.
“Ang, marrying Keh was always a step up for you. In these three years, you haven’t given
Keh a child, and now you’ve cheated on him. The Sinir family can’t tolerate this. You should
divorce Keh”
