ã€ŠLove Of Wind And Cloudsã€‹


 Chapter 1

    It¡¯s pouring rain again. Nancy sat by the window looking out at the paved road fading in the water curtain. Many years have passed but her heart still hasn¡¯t forgotten the past. The time spent with the man she loved created a dreamlike love story.

    She is the daughter of a maid in Nathan¡¯s family. Later, when her mother died, she stayed at his family¡¯s house and continued to work. The original master-servant rtionship gradually turned into pure love.

    The dream wedding seemed like it was about to happen but suddenly disappeared because on the day the two of them finished taking wedding photos, his mother met her privately.

    Cam said the financial situation of the Southernpany is not very positive, bank loans are due but there is no money to pay. The heiress of SN Group, Rosalind, also Nathan¡¯s ssmate, offered to help thepany ovee difficult times but on the condition that she be his wife.

    So, Nancy agreed to leave because she felt she owed them too much. Nathan¡¯s mother was very kind to her mother and her, and her tuition was also paid for by his mother.

    She knew it would be difficult for her to repay Cam¡¯s kindness. Now that Cam had begged, she couldn¡¯t shamelessly linger.

    Winter passed, spring came, and seven years passed in the blink of an eye since the day she left that house that contained a sky of memories. The joy and pain seemed to have been buried over the years, but life likes to tease people, so it forced her to meet him again.

    It was a winter afternoon, the weather was chilly with raindrops, and the sky was a gray color.

    Over three years working at Global Group, Nancyes homete almost every day, but today is an exception because she has moved to the group¡¯s headquarters.

    And tomorrow morning, she has to go to province C to arrange and choose scenes for the movie that is about to start filming.

    Nancy looked up at the clock and realized it was already half past five in the afternoon and everyone had gone home a long time ago, so she quickly stood up to arrange documents. Her appearance was a bit tired but her movements were still quick.

    The light purple umbre had just opened when she heard a voice behind her.

    ¡°Can you let my friend share an umbre and go to the parking lot? He is having a cold.¡±

    Nancy turned to look at the two men, both wearing suits and looking tall. The person who had just spoken smiled and seemed friendly, while the person next to him had a cold face and deep eyes that looked even grayer than today¡¯s sky.

    Because she had a cold, her voice through the mask was a bit muffled.

    ¡°Okay.¡±Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    Dn didn¡¯t say a word, walked up, and stood under the umbre. Nancy reflexively stood on tiptoe, raised the umbre high, then turned to the man who had just talked to her and said.

    ¡°Come with us.¡±

    The situation of a short girl standing between two tall men and holding an umbre for them was too inappropriate for the situation. So Nancy immediately looked up at Dn and spoke.

    ¡°Sir, the tallest person should stand in the middle and hold an umbre so that no one gets wet.¡±

    Dn bent down and stared at her. Paul was startled when he heard that.

    ¡°It¡¯s better if I hold it.¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s okay.¡±

    Dn said as he reached out to take the umbre. Although the umbre is quiterge, it cannotpletely cover three adults lined up in a row.

    Seeing that, Nancy quickly stepped forward so that the two people hitchhiking her umbre wouldn¡¯t get wet.

    The path from the main door to the parking lot was not too far, but because they had to coordinate with each other to avoid trampling on each other, no one dared to go fast.

    After a few minutes, they finally arrived.

    ¡°Thank you.¡± Paul bowed his head slightly and lowered his voice.

    ¡°Do not formal.¡±

    Nancy received the umbre from Dn¡¯s hand, replied softly, then turned and walked away.

    After returning the umbre, Dn opened the car door and sat in, while his assistant quickly leaned forward to talk to Nancy.

    ¡°My name is Paul Allen.¡±

    ¡°Nancy Pelosi.¡±

    She didn¡¯t turn around, just raised her hand high, waved, raised her voice in response, and walked quickly to the gate.

    Paul watched her slender figure disappear into the rain and he saw his boss¡¯s figure also moving in that direction.

    ¡°Where will we go now, boss?¡±

    Paul asked while wearing his seatbelt but didn¡¯t hear anyone answer. Looking up in the rearview mirror, he didn¡¯t see Dn anywhere and when he turned around to look behind him, it was empty.

    He was extremely surprised because he saw his boss get in the car first. Suddenly remembering what happened earlier, he panicked and realized he wasn¡¯t mistaken, so he quickly drove to chase.

    The rain is getting heavier and heavier. Dn looked right and left, trying to find the girl covering the purple umbre earlier.

    Before his eyes were colorful umbres mixed. However, none of them were her.

    Amidst the crowded traffic ofte afternoon, he sighed helplessly in the rain, his face full of disappointment, and trudged back to Global Corporation.

    The road was now gradually sparse, under the light of the streetmp, Nancy reached out to catch thest bus. As soon as Dn saw her, he suddenly woke up and rushed over.

    The bus left the curb and ran straight. He chased after her and called out her name, the cry mixed with the sound of the rain sounded pitiful.

    ¡°Nancy, Nancy¡­ stop for me, Nancy¡­¡±

    Dn cried until his voice was hoarse and he ran until his legs were weak. The scene from seven years ago appeared in his mind again, a mess appeared before his eyes and then faded, faded¡­

 Chapter 2

    It wasn¡¯t until he heard the door open and saw the petite nurse entering and bowing that he realized he was in the hospital. He was a bit dissatisfied with himself because he fainted on the road.

    ¡°You no longer have a fever.¡± The nurse smiled slightly and spoke softly.

    Dn did not answer, reached for the phone, and dialed Paul¡¯s number.

    ¡°Come pick me up.¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m going through hospital discharge procedures, I¡¯ll be right here, boss.¡±

    Paul quickly received the hospital bill receipt and ran to the hospital room. Last night, Paul had to lie to Dn¡¯s mother that he was entertaining guests and was so drunk that he slept over at thepany and did not dare tell the truth.

    Just ten minutester, the shiny car left the hospital and sped down the road.

    Paul drove while looking at the rearview mirror. His mouth seemed to want to say something but then stopped. He hesitated for a long time, his appearance quite funny.

    ¡°What¡¯s the problem?¡± Dn asked, his face still lowered to the phone, not looking up.

    ¡°Boss, are you going home now or going somewhere?¡±

    ¡°Go to thepany.¡±

    ¡°Yes, but don¡¯t you rest a bit?¡±

    ¡°No need. Please help me find information about the girl we met yesterday.¡±

    ¡°Boss, rest assured.¡± Paul smiled triumphantly because investigating others is his specialty.

    Globan Group today weed one group of customers after another. Because Dn didn¡¯t feel well, he just stayed in his office, leaving diplomatic matters to Stephen.

    Stephen received guests from morning to afternoon, so his throat was dry and his face was listless.

    As soon as Stephen entered Dn¡¯s office, he mmed his hands on the table and spoke with resentment.

    ¡°Brother, I want to change jobs.¡±

    ¡°Why?¡±

    ¡°No reason, I don¡¯t want to have to receive guests like this all day.¡±

    ¡°Just for today.¡±

    ¡°If there is today, there will be tomorrow, I am a real photographer, so why don¡¯t you let me work in the entertainment and media field? That ce will promote my talent.¡±

    ¡°Haven¡¯t you received nearly a dozen groups of guests today? You did very well.¡±

    ¡°But I¡¯m very bored because it¡¯s not my forte. Dn, please send Mr. Lyle to manage this construction part, let me rece him to manage the entertainment part.¡±

    ¡°No way.¡±

    ¡°Why?¡±

    ¡°Young master, this is work, not a game. Don¡¯t worry, in a few days, someone wille to help you, in your free time you can go to Lyle¡¯s ce to satisfy your passion. As for this project director position, it certainly cannot be changed.¡±

    After Stephen heard Dn¡¯sst words, his face became sad, he left the desk andy down on the sofa.

    Stephen¡¯s father was originally a shareholder of Global Group. Now that he is older, he wants to return to the countryside to live a leisurely life.

    As soon as Stephen finished studying abroad, his father lured him here to help with a few things.

    Although Stephen does not have any expertise rted to business, because he is the son of a businessman, business blood flows in him.

    Not long after he arrived at Global Corporation, from an ordinary employee, he was quickly promoted.

    In the end, his position was this, below one person and above many people, deputy general director who was also project manager.

    So he knew he had been tricked by his father and that the guy named Dn was also on his father¡¯s side.

    Stephen originally intended to work as a small employee so he could continue to pursue his passion, but as a result, he now sits in a ce where no one else dares to sit.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    They told him to wait until they found a suitable person to take over this position and then release him. But as a result, over the years, there has been no one more suitable than him. Life is so unfair to him.

    Global Group is a transnational multi-industry corporation, including key industries in finance, investment, real estate, healthcare, education, fashion, media, and entertainment¡­ with countlessrge and small headquarters, restaurant chains, hotels, and resorts spread throughout the country and abroad.

    Dn and Stephen are the next two heirs. Dn¡¯s mother handed over all management of the corporation to him and withdrew from the business market.

    As for Stephen, although the shares are still in his father¡¯s name, he is Neil¡¯s only son.

    In the past, when the Southernpany was on the verge of bankruptcy and Dn was seriously injured, Neil, also his mother¡¯s old ssmate, appeared and agreed to contribute capital to help.

    Later, when Dn returned to take over thepany, he changed the name of the Southernpany to Global, and he also changed his name. The Nathan of the past is the Dn of the present.

    Hearing a knock on the door, both guys looked up at the same time.

    Paul held a thin stack of papers in his hand and nced sideways and then vertically.

    When he saw Stephen lying on the sofa, he paused for a few seconds, but then quickly walked over and gave the documents to Dn.

    Looking at Paul¡¯s appearance from the moment he entered until now, Stephen always felt something was wrong.

    Looking up at Dn who was focusing on the pages, Stephen saw that the more he read, the darker and grimmer his face became.

    Stephen didn¡¯t know anything serious had happened, so he couldn¡¯t lie still and quickly got up.

    ¡°What happened?¡±

    ¡°Nothing. Aren¡¯t you nning to go home? You¡¯re not tired yet?¡± Dn quickly folded the documents and opened the drawer to put them in.

    ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense, I¡¯m asking you?¡±

    ¡°Not thepany¡¯s business.¡± Dn replied concisely.

    ¡°So it¡¯s your business?¡± Stephen rested his chin on the desk and blinked.

    ¡°Deputy general manager, just now I saw the goddess Rosalind in the main lobby.¡± Paul spoke to break the awkward atmosphere.

    ¡°Are you talking about actress Rosalind who ys the female lead in the movie Bright Moonlight?¡± Stephen stood up straight and eagerly asked.

    ¡°Right. It¡¯s her.¡±

    ¡°Wow. Paul, thank you for your information. Beauty, here Ie.¡±

    After saying that, Stephen quickly jumped out of the room and went straight.

 Chapter 3

    Dn leaned back slightly in his swivel chair and looked at Paul.

    ¡°Say it.¡±

    ¡°Her name is Nancy Pelosi, twenty-eight years old, graduated from University Z majoring in Literature. Previously, she worked as amunications officer at the group¡¯s branch in province D and she just came here yesterday as part of the rotation n for elite employees. Currently, she is working in the editorial team. I heard that writer Song¡¯s work Bright Moonlight was adapted into a movie thanks to her contact and negotiation. Mr. Lyle loves this female employee very much.¡±

    ¡°That¡¯s all?¡± Dn squinted and asked.

    ¡°Yes, I have not yet determined her current whereabouts. Today she followed Mr. Lyle to province C to choose a filming location for a new movie.¡± Paul answered honestly.

    ¡°Province C? The Sunny House project that Miss E proposed to transfer to us is there, right?¡±

    ¡°Yes, but you said you weren¡¯t interested¡­¡±

    ¡°Contact her, we¡¯ll be there tomorrow morning.¡± Dn said as he stood up, took his vest, put it on, and walked quickly towards the door.

    Paul looked at Dn in surprise and then quickly chased after him.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    God only knows what happened yesterday. Originally, Paul drove to look for Dn but didn¡¯t know whether to turn left or right. In the end, following a hunch, he quickly turned left.

    He drove for a while and then suddenly saw a traffic ident so he panicked and went to see.

    When he determined that person was not his boss, he quickly drove in the opposite direction but got stuck in traffic. It took him half an hour to return to Global Corporation and he saw Dn lying unconscious on the side of the road.

    Judging by the situation from early morning until now, Paul is sure his boss and the girl named Nancy have some hidden secret.

    When Dn returned the umbre to her yesterday, he didn¡¯t even say thank you to her. Could it be that he¡¯s looking for her now to thank her?

    The more Paul thought, the more confused his head became, but he still followed Dn downstairs.

    In front of the main lobby, bustling with the sounds of cameras and reporters, there were also the voices of employees who, although it was time to get off work, refused to go home and lingered in thepany to look at their idols.

    Normally, reporters are never allowed to enter thepany and make much noise. But this is Lyle¡¯s advertising tactic, so Dn doesn¡¯t care.

    Although Paul followed Dn closely, he still nced at the area surrounded by reporters. He wondered why he couldn¡¯t see Stephen anywhere. Wasn¡¯t it Stephen who ran down here?

    ¡°Miss Rosalind, this time you came here to continue cooperating in filming with Global Group, right?¡± A male reporter spoke up.

    ¡°I heard that you left SN Group to work for Global Group, is this true?¡± Another female reporter¡¯s voice rang out.

    ¡°Miss Rosalind, can you reveal a little about your ns? When will you release a new movie?¡±

    Some people asked questions and some people took pictures, making this area extremely bustling. Five or six bodyguards were surrounding Rosalind to protect her.

    Today Rosalind is wearing an elegant ck dress, the upper half of her face is covered byrge fashion sses, and her curls of hair fall evenly on her shoulders.

    ¡°Today I came here to take promotional photos, and the uing film project is still in the negotiation stage. I will notify you when there are official results, thank you.¡± She smiled softly and friendlyly.

    After finishing speaking, Rosalind waved goodbye to them and went straight into the photography room.

    Stephen was standing there and in his hand was a digital camera. When he saw Rosalind enter, he immediately turned professional.

    She looked at him and expressed surprise.

    ¡°Isn¡¯t Mr. Lyle going to take pictures for me today?¡±

    ¡°Ah, Mr. Lyle is busy so I will rece him. I guarantee to make you satisfied.¡±

    Rosalind nodded slightly, quickly went inside to change her outfit, and then came back out. Everyone¡¯s praise softly rang out as soon as she stepped out of the dressing room.

    Stephen took pictures continuously, capturing every precious expression on her face. This time Global Groupunches new products, the jewelry designs in the Eternal Love collection perfectly match Rosalind¡¯s noble appearance and temperament.

    When the photo shoot ended, it was already dark. The car carrying Rosalind gradually moved. Her long fingers lightly touched the phone screen and a phone number appeared.

    ¡°Dn, I just finished work, are you free tonight? I want to have a meal with you.¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m busy. Maybe you¡¯re also tired from working all day. We will meet another day.¡±

    The sound of hanging up on the other side rang out very quickly while Rosalind still hadn¡¯t had time to turn off the phone. She raised her hand to lower the car¡¯s windshield.

    The wind outside blew in and blew her loose hair, her delicate face had a hint of sadness.

    Seven years, it¡¯s been seven years, and she knows that in Dn¡¯s mind, he still holds the image of that girl. From the day Nancy left, he closed his heart and rushed to work like a moth to a me.

    Rosalind smiled bitterly, she was a goddess in the eyes of many people but could not make that man¡¯s eyes look in her direction even once.

    When he fell to the bottom of despair, she was the one next to him, but that meant nothing to him.

    The night wind made the rose bushes on the balcony tremble slightly, and the full moonlight of mid-month made the man¡¯s silhouette appear on the wall.

    Dn shook the ss of wine in his hand. He doesn¡¯t like jubnt parties or bustling restaurants, he just wants to be alone in the quiet night and gnaw away his pain.

    His feelings for that girlsted for more than twenty years. He doesn¡¯t know when he started loving her, perhaps the moment he saw the chubby baby walking in the yard and picking all the white chrysanthemums.

 Chapter 4

    That adorable chubby face made him unable to be angry so he ran next to the little girl and took the flower petals from her hand and threw them away for fear that she would put them in her mouth to chew and swallow.

    Dn was satisfied with that love under the same roof. He was convinced that Nancy would belong to him forever until the day she suddenly said goodbye.

    The day she left, he went crazy and disregarded his dignity and self-respect to hold on to her. Because he was chasing the taxi carrying her, he had a terrible ident, his face waspletely disfigured and his ribs were broken several times.

    After spending two long years on the operating table, the day the bandages were removed, he looked at himself in the mirror and thought he was a stranger.

    At that moment, he hated that girl so much and he wanted to see her again to make her pay everything, the price for betraying his sincerity.

    He lifted his wine ss into the air and smiled bitterly.

    ¡°Nancy Pelosi, congrats on our reunion.¡±

    After speaking, he drank the ss of wine in one gulp. Tonight will continue to be a sleepless night for him, this feeling of being only half-drunk makes it difficult for him to sleep peacefully.

    The darkness gradually dissipated and the sunlight slowly appeared on the sea. Nancy wandered on the deserted beach, enjoying looking at the round sand balls made by sand crabs.

    She bent down and gently touched them with her fingers, and they immediately shattered.

    A love affair that is not blessed by rtives will break up, which she already knows, but her heart is still sad.

    She went to sit on the rock and looked out at the horizon. The winter wind gently caressed her chubby face.

    From a distance, Lyle slowly walked closer to her. He still remembers two years ago, when he went to province D, he met her.

    To him, Nancy is an interesting, enthusiastic, strong, and decisive person at work but stupid in everyday life.

    At that time, she took on the task of guiding the terrain for the film crew. However, when he dropped her off on the main road to catch the bus, she waspletely unable to determine whether the up or down bus was the right way to her house.

    During one of their conversations, Lyle identally talked about his n to adapt online literary works into movies. The work he most wanted to work on was Bright Moonlight by writer Song, but he couldn¡¯t contact that writer.

    And after only a few days when he returned to the city, Nancy called to tell him that Song agreed to allow her work to be adapted but on the condition that Nancy directly edit it.

    A yearter, the film was released, bringing resounding sess, bringing the names of actress Rosalind of SN Group and actor Daniel of Global Group to the ranks of stars.

    ¡°Aren¡¯t you cold?¡± Lyle asked.

    ¡°Just a bit.¡± She replied softly.

    ¡°Today we go up the mountain to choose a few more locations and we¡¯re done.¡±

    ¡°Yes, brother.¡±

    At exactly eight thirty minutes, the three people quickly moved up the mountain to find the next location.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    The film director for this movie Under the Abyss is Kent, a quite young, vibrant, and extremely enthusiastic film director.

    Yesterday, he only chose scenes on the beach but he acted like it was very serious, criticizing this beach for being deserted, that beach being so crowded, and other beaches not being beautiful.

    He said that art is a deceitful moonlight, but it cannot be too deceitful. Nancy and Lyle also had to give in to him.

    It waste afternoon when they finished walking around the mountain, so they stopped next to a stream. The sound of the wind rushing through the trees creates a wild sound.

    Lyle held the camera in his hand and signaled Nancy to pose beautifully so he could take a photo of her.

    ¡°You have to stand like this, back foot, front foot, strike, strike.¡± Kent said while modeling for her to see.

    ¡°I¡¯m not wearing ancient clothes, how can I stand like that? I doubt your ability as a director.¡± Nancy red.

    I just want you to have a beautiful set of photos, rest assured, under Mr. Lyle¡¯s lens, you will look beautiful no matter what you do.

    Lyle could only burst intoughter when he heard the conversation. On a business trip two years ago, Kent was also present, so Nancy and him were quite friendly.

    One is twenty-eight years old and the other is thirty years old, but every time they see each other, they argue.

    When they returned to the hotel and prepared to go to dinner, the clock hands were gradually moving toward seven o¡¯clock in the evening.

    At the same time, Dn was also on his way from the city to province C. He feverishly looked to both sides of the road. The unexpected meetingsted from morning to noon but still failed to reach an agreement and continued into the afternoon, causing E to wait for him until her neck grew longer.

    As soon as the car stopped in front of the luxury restaurant, Dn quickly entered and looked around. He saw E still waiting for him in her business attire, her eyes were like two bullets.

    ¡°Miss E, I¡¯m so sorry.¡± Dn bowed his head and said.

    ¡°I wait longer for you than for my lover.¡± E replied.

    ¡°Sorry, miss.¡±

    ¡°Have you had dinner yet?¡±

    ¡°Not yet.¡±

    Initially, E nned to wait until she met Dn, then she would scold the arrogant chairman and then cut off her rtionship with him and stop cooperating.

    But when she saw him like this, she felt pitiful. His appearance was very haggard after a stressful day at work and sitting in the car for several hours.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go, behind this restaurant is the sea, you will feel less tired when you go there.¡±

    E said and quickly went ahead. Dn also quickly followed her.

 Chapter 5

    After Paul parked the car, he quickly ran into the restaurant. He looks even more pathetic than his boss.

    As soon as the meeting ended, he was hungry, but because he didn¡¯t want to make his bosste for work, he tried to endure it.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    His position is truly miserable, not as happy as everyone thinks, the president¡¯s assistant and driver.

    He saw that Dn used manpower very skillfully. In Global Group, except for normal employees, all senior personnel must hold concurrent duties.

    Stephen only holds two positions butins all day long, while Lyle holds the position of deputy general director andmunications director, managing entertainment, fashion, and photography.

    Even though Paul is Dn¡¯s assistant, he still admires Lyle very much. In his heart, Lyle is like having seventy-two magical transformations.

    ¡°Hello Miss E, my name is Paul, I¡¯m Mr. Dn¡¯s assistant. It was me who contacted you yesterday.¡± Paul tried to appear cheerful and introduced himself.

    ¡°Hello, I¡¯m here both noon and afternoon.¡± E also tried to smile.

    ¡°I¡¯m sorry for not informing you sooner, and causing you to wait.¡± He bowed his head to show remorse.

    Dn¡¯s appearance made E feel pitiful, but Paul¡¯s appearance made her feel funny. His eyes were like a lost dog. It seemed like he was so hungry that he was dizzy.

    The night sea breeze blew in, carrying salty air, and Dn felt his hair be sticky.

    Paul kept focusing on eating. When the two people next to him raised their sses of wine, he was busy putting meat in his mouth and when he picked up the ss of wine, everyone had already put their sses down.

    His appearance as if he had been starved for eight lifetimes made Eugh out loud. Thanks to her two male partners, her staff had a delicious meal.

    Yesterday afternoon, she received a call from Paul, so today, she hurriedly ordered specialties for a party to wee them. In the end, she waited for them for many hours.

    After hearing that they woulde here in the evening, she had to pack the dishes and bring them back to thepany.

    ¡°Tomorrow I will take you two to visit the project.¡± E raised her ss of wine and said.

    ¡°I heard you say the project is very feasible, but why don¡¯t you continue implementing it and transfer it to me?¡± Dn wondered.

    ¡°Ourpany cannot turn capital in time, and the project is almost overdue, if it is not carried out, it will be revoked. It is not simply a money-making project but also my father¡¯s wish when he was alive.¡± She exined, her voice a little sad.

    Looking at E¡¯s face, Dn felt that this girl had some simrities to his mother from before. It is not easy for a woman to struggle in the business world.

    ¡°I¡¯ve already ruined your day. If you have work tomorrow morning, just handle it first, we will wait. We will go visit the project in the afternoon.¡± Dn spoke softly.

    ¡°Okay, thank you, then see you at three o¡¯clock tomorrow afternoon.¡± She smiled and expressed gratitude.

    Not far away, three people including Nancy, Lyle, and Kent were also eating together. Kent has a plump body and although he had nned to lose weight, when he saw the two people next to him eating deliciously, he decided to be fat one more day.

    ¡°Mr. Lyle, yesterday I heard someone at thepany say that Mr. Stephen personally took photos to promote jewelry products this time.¡± Kent quickly drank a bowl of oyster porridge and spoke up.

    ¡°I asked him. Stephen is also a professional photographer.¡±

    ¡°I heard that he seems to admire Rosalind very much.¡± Kent chuckled.

    ¡°Really? I think he just admires Selena in the movie Bright Moonlight.¡± Lyle replied as he put the shrimp he had just peeled into Nancy¡¯s bowl.

    Hearing the two of them mention Rosalind, Nancy¡¯s movements slightly paused.

    At first, she waspletely unaware that the movie Bright Moonlight was a coborative project between two corporations. It wasn¡¯t until the day Lyle sent her a photo of the main cast that she found out.

    She also did not expect that Rosalind could perfectly transform into the role of Selena.

    ¡°Nancy, do you want to eat that shrimp?¡± Kent looked at Nancy¡¯s cup and asked.

    ¡°This is what Lyle peeled for me, of course, I will eat it.¡±

    ¡°Nancy, tell me the truth, writer Song is a rtive of yours, right?¡±

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? I¡¯m not rted to her.¡±

    After hearing what Nancy said, Kent smiled and continued asking.

    ¡°Song is female, right? You just said her, right?¡±

    ¡°Actually¡­ I can¡¯t determine Song¡¯s gender, that person¡¯s voice is half male, half female, I¡¯m not sure.¡± She quickly answered.

    ¡°Why are you the only one able to contact Song? I¡¯m so doubtful.¡±

    ¡°There is nothing suspicious. I just sent an email to that person and clearly stated Mr. Lyle¡¯s wishes, but I didn¡¯t expect that person to agree. It was because I persistently bothered Song that I received such results.¡±

    Kent had just opened his mouth to ask more when Lyle stuffed a huge shrimp in with a urging word.

    ¡°Eat quickly and go back to the hotel to rest. We have to leave early tomorrow.¡±

    After eating, the three of them returned to the hotel. Nancy entered the room, gently pushed the door open, and stepped out onto the balcony, reaching out to poke the vines that hung in front of her.

    The moonlight of the winter night on the sea tonight looked so cold that it made her feel numb.

    Many years have passed, neither too long nor too short, she restrained herself from looking for any news about Nathan.

    However, when she saw Rosalind¡¯s photo, she couldn¡¯t control herself and continuously searched for all information rted to Rosalind.

    Rosalind is still single, if so, where did Nathan go? The data about the Southernpany on the intepletely disappeared, and the old headquarters was also reced by a luxurious coffee shop.

    She wondered if it was because he didn¡¯t marry Rosalind that the Southernpany was wiped out.

 Chapter 6

    Nancy leaned her back against the wall and sighed. If she had known this oue, she would not have left him, she would have stayed by his side and held his hand through the storm.

    Maybe both of them will just be ordinary employees in somepany, or open a wholesale store together, or maybe they will take each other to the countryside and raise livestock and crops.

    After leaving Nathan¡¯s house, Nancy left behind the magnificent city and went to the mountains to live with her friend Jolie and her husband.

    Jolie only finished high school, then quit school and went to work to support her boyfriend¡¯s education.

    However, the sry of a new graduate like Mason was not enough to take care of Jolie and their children, so the whole family decided to return to their hometown to continue their parents¡¯ farming career.

    Four years in the peaceful and quiet mountains somewhat eased the pain in Nancy¡¯s heart, but the sadness remained forever.

    On the other side of the wall, Dn was also leaning back and looking at the sky and sea.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    The white waves ran in and out, the lights of the train flickering in the distance were returning.

    Dn raised the ss of wine to his lips and drank it all. He doesn¡¯t know when he became an alcoholic. If he wasn¡¯t drunk, he wouldn¡¯t be able to sleep peacefully.

    The cold of winter made his whole body extremely sore, and the wound in his heart was even more painful.

    It was just dawn, Nancy, Lyle, and Kent quickly left the hotel. Kent yawned continuously and after getting in the car, he continued to snore.

    He said that except when he has to film, waking up early is torture for him.

    Nancy looked at his appearance in the rearview mirror and couldn¡¯t helpughing. He eats a lot and sleeps a lot, so it¡¯s natural for him to be fat.

    ¡°Mr. Lyle, please give me leave tomorrow.¡± Nancy turned to Lyle and said.

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡±

    ¡°Tomorrow is my mother¡¯s death anniversary.¡±

    ¡°Okay, let me take you there.¡±

    As soon as Lyle finished speaking, the phone rang. The phone number disyed on the screen belongs to his assistant, Mina.

    ¡°I¡¯m listening.¡±

    ¡®Mr. Lyle, when are youing back? The partner requests to meet with you toe up with design ideas for jewelry to apany their uing collection.¡± Mina¡¯s voice is very urgent.

    ¡°I¡¯m on my way back.¡±

    ¡°Then I¡¯ll make an appointment to meet them tomorrow.¡±

    Hearing Mina arrange the schedule, Lyle immediately turned to Nancy, she smiled and signaled him to ept.

    ¡°Okay, make an appointment and let me know the time.¡±

    Lyle reached out to turn off the phone and looked at Nancy apologetically. He had just opened his mouth to say he would take her back to visit her mother¡¯s grave when something unexpected happened.

    ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Lyle spoke hesitantly.

    ¡°It¡¯s okay. I like taking the bus better.¡± Nancy happily replied.

    ¡°Are you criticizing my car?¡±

    ¡°No, if you give me the wheel, I¡¯ll sell it and make a lot of money.¡±

    After hearing what she said, Lyle couldn¡¯t help butugh. This girl is as funny as Stephen.

    The car continued to speed along the road, the blue sea gradually disappeared, and behind Nancy was the sound of Kent¡¯s steady breathing.

    The phone ringing woke up Dn. Yesterday he drank almost a bottle of wine so his head is still spinning. As soon as he got out of bed, he was dizzy and fell. He looked extremely pathetic.

    Paul waited for a long time but didn¡¯t see Dn appear, so he was extremely worried, his heart wanted to jump out of his chest.

    The day he was epted as Dn¡¯s assistant, Dn¡¯s mother entrusted her son to his care. In addition to the monthly sry he received at thepany, he also pocketed an additional amount of money from his boss¡¯s mother, so he felt his responsibilities increased with those green and red bills.

    As if it had be a habit, Dn quickly showered and changed clothes. The appearance when he appeared at the door was very handsome and neat, very different from the shabby image just now.

    ¡°Where are they?¡±

    ¡°Yes, boss, I just discovered that they were staying in the same hotel as us, that girl shared the same wall as your room, but early this morning they returned to the city.¡±

    ¡°Why so quickly?¡±

    ¡°Yes, they are excellent employees, they work faster than others, that¡¯s why everyone lets them go together, finish work early and return early.¡±

    Dn sighed, his face showing slight disappointment. He wondered why he kept passing by her like that. Maybe it¡¯s because he and she no longer have a chance to be together.

    At this time, on the eighth floor of Global Group, Stephen put his hands in his pockets and eyes glued to the main gate. The sunlight passing through the ss window adorned his handsome face.

    He was so frustrated that he couldn¡¯t stand it anymore. Why did two high-ranking figures of Global Group disappear, leaving him alone in this busy workce?

    Dn threw him a power of attorney and then threw him a bunch of documents.

    He signed so diligently that he could no longer feel his two fingers and it seemed like his fingerprints werepletely worn off. Fortunately, he did not have to put his finger on the timekeeper.

    Seeing Lyle¡¯s car drive into the gate, Stephen immediately followed. When he saw three peopleing out of the car, two men and one woman, he quickly closed the curtain and waited for a while.

    When Stephen guessed that Lyle had reached the fifth floor, he began to leave. The elevator door had just opened when two handsome guys faced each other.

    ¡°Is Mr. Lyle back from the outing?¡±

    ¡°What are you talking about? I go to work.¡±

    Stephen paced back and forth, clutching his chin, watching Lyle.

    ¡°You don¡¯t have to do things like this yourself, you should stay here and help me.¡±

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? A general director and a deputy general director but can¡¯t handle the work in time? Still have to wait for me?¡±

    ¡°There is no general manager, from morning until now I have been dancing with fire by myself. Our President remembered you so he followed in your footsteps and went to province C.¡±

    ¡°Is Dn gone?¡± Lyle was surprised.

    ¡°That¡¯s right, from yesterday. He said he was interested in the Sunny House project.¡±

 Chapter 7

    Lyle frowned slightly. This kid always has a clear schedule and n, and rarely follows his emotions, so why did he make such a sudden decision now?

    After thinking for a few seconds, Lyle turned to Stephen, who was blinking and examining him.

    ¡°Later, send me promotional photos of the Eternal Love jewelry set.¡±

    After finishing speaking, he quickly walked back to the office, leaving Stephen standing there with a confused face.

    Stephen thought they were going out together. But it seems that¡¯s not the case.

    At precisely three o¡¯clock in the afternoon, E took Dn and Paul to visit the project.

    Their car drove through several roads before arriving. It is a fairlyrge and t area ofnd, with the back facing the mountain and the front facing the sea.

    ¡°What is that ce?¡± Dn pointed to the end of thend and asked.

    ¡°It¡¯s an orphanage.¡± E replied softly.

    After speaking, she took them there. When the children saw a guesting in, they all stood up to say hello. An elderly nun came forward and greeted E in a low voice.

    ¡°Hello Miss E.¡±

    ¡°Yes, hello, this is Mr. Dn and Mr. Paul. Today I brought them to visit thisnd.¡±

    ¡°Hello, you two.¡±

    Paul and Dn both bowed slightly and turned to look at the children who were attentively pasting colorful shells to create countless souvenirs.

    A little girl ran to give Dn a peacock made from a snail shell.

    ¡°For you, uncle.¡±

    ¡°Why did you suddenly give it to me?¡± Dn took it and asked.

    ¡°Because you let us stay here. You don¡¯t force us to move away.¡±

    Dn turned to look at E as if asking a question, so she offered to take him to see all the areas in the orphanage.

    Paul was fascinated by the colorful snail shells. He swooped down and glued them into the shape of a rooster. He was so infatuated that he didn¡¯t care about his boss anymore.

    Going through all the rooms, Dn saw inside there were children with congenital disabilities lying in cribs and beds, their innocent eyes looking toward the door.

    ¡°There were many people interested in this project, but they all wanted the orphanage to move to another ce, so I did not agree.¡± E slowly said.

    ¡°So why did you propose a transfer to me? From the perspective of an investor, I would be just like them.¡±

    ¡°But as a human being, you wouldn¡¯t do that.¡±

    ¡°Reason?¡±

    ¡°Mr. Dn is a good person, I know very well what you do. During these years, you have always been quietly involved in volunteer work. I hope you agree to take on this project but don¡¯t force them to leave.¡±

    Dn looked at the peacock in his hand and then at the little girl¡¯s face. That little girl reminds him of Nancy. The image of a little girl with chubby cheeks and slightly sad eyes filled his mind.

    He wondered if E was in his stomach. She knew he couldn¡¯t bear to chase these orphaned children away.

    As soon as they got out to where the children were gathered, Paul finished making the cock. He smiled happily and seemed very satisfied.

    ¡°I will think about it and answer youter.¡± Dn held out his hand.

    ¡°Thank you for taking the time toe down here.¡± E shook his hand and nodded slightly.

    When Dn returned to the city, it was already past eight o¡¯clock in the evening. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Rosalind and his mother sitting and chatting. He looked at them with an expressionless face.

    ¡°Why did youe here?¡±Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    ¡°What do you ask? She came to visit me.¡±

    ¡°Mom, are you not feeling well?¡± Dn turned to Cam and squinted his eyes.

    ¡°It¡¯s been a long time since I¡¯ve seen your mother, so I came here¡­¡± Rosalind noticed that the atmosphere was not good so she immediately stood up to exin.

    ¡°You¡¯re a big star now, it wouldn¡¯t be nice for reporters to see youing to my house.¡±

    After saying that, Dn quickly went up the stairs. Rosalind nkly watched his figure. She wondered if this man had a heart after all. How could he be so heartless?

    But the colder he was, the more she wanted him.

    ¡°Don¡¯t be sad, maybe during the surgery he received too much blood from strangers so his personality changed. Sometimes I wonder if he is still Nathan.¡± Cam¡¯s face looks a little sad.

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, I¡¯lle again another day, goodbye.¡±

    Rosalind quickly walked to the car and sat in, resting her head on the steering wheel and crying for a while.

    Then, she raised her eyes and looked up to the upper floor, where the window was still bright with electric light.

    She felt so pitiful because she was always busy chasing after him but never received a response from him.

    Rosalind met him in graduate school. Nathan seven years ago was a warm, gentle guy who always cared about helping people. She loved him for that reason, and finally, her heart skipped a beat.

    Until one evening, after the year-end party, she secretly followed him home and saw him passionately hugging and kissing a girl under the ginkgo tree. At that moment, her heart felt like it was broken.

    The next morning, just after seven o¡¯clock, on Dn¡¯s orders, Paul appeared in front of the editing room to observe the staff.

    He nced sideways and vertically for a long time but didn¡¯t see Nancy anywhere.

    As soon as Mina arrived, seeing his appearance, she immediately suspected he had bad intentions.

    ¡°What are you doing here?¡±

    ¡°Mina, you made me almost faint.¡± Paul said while holding his chest.

    ¡°I¡¯m asking you. Oh, or the president¡¯s assistant wants to be the son-inw of the editorial department, right?¡± Mina smiled and winked.

    ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense. Ah, why doesn¡¯t Miss Nancy go to work today?¡±

    ¡°She asked for leave. Today is Friday, so Mr. Lyle allows her to take the rest of the week off. Oh, you smell so fast. She¡¯s only been here a few days.¡±

 Chapter 8

    After Mina finished speaking, she quickly went into the room.

    Paul was sure that his boss and that girl had been cursed. His boss chased her for several days but in the end he could not meet her.

    Paul pursed his lips and walked back up to the eighth floor. He almost walked into the deputy general director¡¯s office by mistake, but fortunately, after knocking twice, he discovered it so he passed by.

    Inside the room, Lyle was attentively editing the photos and then emailing them to Rosalind, so he didn¡¯t notice any noise outside. He silently praised Stephen¡¯s skills.

    After sending the email, he took out his phone and dialed the number to call her.

    ¡°Rosalind, I just sent you the photos, do you think they satisfy you?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m looking at them, they¡¯re so beautiful. That new photographer doesn¡¯t seem bad.¡±

    ¡°He is the deputy general director of Global Group, his name is Stephen.¡±

    ¡°You said Stephen was that person?¡±

    ¡°Uh. Then I will proceed with posting.¡±

    ¡°Yes.¡±

    Rosalind put the phone on the table and stared into space for a long time. If Stephen¡¯s father hadn¡¯t helped the Southernpany in the past, perhaps she would have been Dn¡¯s legal wife by now.

    Thest day of the working week at Global Group is always busier than any other day. Nancy had just finished editing the script when she received a phone call from Lyle calling her to his office.

    The big bosses were all on the highest floors and she only knew he was on the eighth floor, not which room he was in.

    Nancy looked up as she walked. She saw two deputy general manager¡¯s rooms next to each other, one was Stephen¡¯s room, and the other was Lyle¡¯s room.

    She raised her hand to knock when the door suddenly opened, making her startled. In front of her was a tall man with light brown hair and bright eyes with a smile. He looks a lot like the male protagonist in a romantic billionaire movie.

    ¡°Pleasee in here.¡±

    Lyle¡¯s voice made Nancy quickly regain herposure. She even thought she was in the wrong room. So, she quickly slipped through the gap and went straight inside.

    Lyle pointed to the sofa and told her to sit and then walked away from the desk. Seeing Stephen still standing there, he squinted his eyes and asked.

    ¡°Haven¡¯t you left yet?¡±

    ¡°Go now, leave now.¡±

    Stephen shrugged and jumped out of the room. However, he did not leave but just stood outside the door.

    Lyle took the stack of documents and gave them to Nancy.

    ¡°I thought you¡¯d go back to work early next week, why so urgent?¡±

    ¡°Because I came back early, I went to thepany.¡±

    ¡°Wynn is about to release his debut MV. The script will follow the direction of a sad love story. Please help him write it. Here is the list of songs.¡±Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°When does it start?¡±

    ¡°Next month. Is there enough time for you to do it?¡±

    ¡°Yes, you can rest assured. Ah, the person who walked out of your room just now is also the boss? He¡¯s on the eighth floor.¡±

    ¡°Yes, he is Stephen, deputy general director, and project director.¡±

    Nancy nodded slightly. She had heard of him for a long time, but now she met him face to face.

    After bowing to Lyle, she quickly walked out. Just as she turned around to close the door, she ran into Stephen again. Before, she didn¡¯t know his identity, but now she knew, so she bowed politely.

    When Stephen saw the petite girl with the lovely round face, he seemed to be spellbound and kept looking at her.

    She greeted him without hearing his response so she walked past him.

    Suddenly a voice called out from behind her.

    ¡°Hey, what¡¯s your name?¡±

    ¡°My name is Nancy.¡± Nancy turned her head and calmly responded.

    ¡°Selena?¡±

    ¡°No, Nancy.¡±

    ¡°Are you free tonight? Let¡¯s go have dinner together.¡± Stephen smiled, quickly walked to her side and flirted.

    ¡°Deputy general manager, do you have a fever?¡± She widened her eyes in surprise.

    ¡°Why are you asking that?¡± Stephen raised his hand to touch his forehead. He felt that it was not hot.

    ¡°Do you and I know each other?¡±

    ¡°Now we know each other. My first impression of you was very good, I liked you already. Please agree.¡±

    ¡°No, I¡¯m busy, goodbye.¡±

    After saying that, she turned around and left.

    Suddenly she encountered a perverted boss, like a handsome, rich man passing by Cindere with a dirty face and falling in love. And the next day, he would bring a pnquin to take her back to his house.

    Although Nancy loves to write novels, she has never written this kind of love on paper.

    The male and female protagonists under her pen have to go through many ups and downs, joys, anger, and sorrows before gradually developing feelings, not like buying fish.

    Stephen looked at her back andughed. He couldn¡¯t imagine that he had just been rejected. After all, this was the first time he flirted with an employee since joining Global Group.

    He secretly thought that maybe because he worked too much, his handsomeness had decreased. So he decided that tomorrow he would go and rejuvenate his appearance.

    Theter in the afternoon, the colder it became. It was only five o¡¯clock in the afternoon but it looked dark and there were scattered lights on both sides of the road. The car carrying Dn sped out of the gate.

    Seeing the girl standing alone at the bus stop, her figure familiar, he urgently urged Paul.

    ¡°Stop the car quickly.¡±

    The assistant quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road. Before he could understand anything, Dn pointed his hand behind him.

    ¡°Didn¡¯t you say she asked for leave for the rest of the week?¡±

    Paul looked at his boss¡¯s finger, his face now bing stupid. Mina told Lyle to allow Nancy to take the rest of the week off, so why is she here now, wearing thepany uniform?

    Before he could answer, Dn opened the car door and jumped out.

 Chapter 9

    The phone rang continuously, Nancy quickly reached into her bag to rummage. She was in such a hurry that she dropped the stack of documents Lyle gave her to the ground, just as the wind blew and blew them up, scattering them everywhere.

    Looking ahead and looking back, she saw that the street was deserted, so she quickly rushed out to pick them up.

    Suddenly a light shed, and when she raised her head, the car was too close, she could only hear a man screaming.

    Next was the feeling of being wrapped in a warm embrace, the hug was so tight that it made it difficult for her to breathe.

    Gradually regainingposure, she slightly moved her feet and looked up.

    Seeing in front of her was a tall man wearing a suit, eyes as deep as the bottom of an abyss, she quickly pushed him away, her voice still trembling.

    ¡°Thank¡­ thank you.¡±

    Dn¡¯s eyes did not leave Nancy¡¯s face, his hands still held tightly and did not let go.

    On the other side of the street, thest bus had just passed by, and the sound of the turn signal made her suddenly wake up and turn around.

    Paul rushed forward, his face pale because he thought he was about to lose his refuge.

    Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask, he saw Dn¡¯s eyes so he remained silent.

    ¡°Is that thest bus of the day?¡± Dn asked.

    Nancy nodded slightly. Dn immediately took her hand and led her across the street, pushing her into the car.

    ¡°Tell me the address, and we will take you home.¡± Dn spoke seriously.

    ¡°Don¡¯t bother, I¡¯ll take a taxi.¡±

    ¡°Address?¡±

    ¡°Huh? Ah. No. 277, Street X.¡±

    She didn¡¯t understand why she suddenly revealed her whereabouts to strangers like that.

    This man¡¯s tone seemed very powerful, somewhat simr to Nathan¡¯s, but Nathan had always spoken to her gently and slowly.

    It waste, Nancy closed theputer and walked out to the balcony. The night wind blew past, making her feel cool.

    This house belongs to a kind girl. Because she had to move back to her hometown to take care of her sick mother, Nancy rented it.

    Remembering what happened in the afternoon, Nancy still felt a bit scared. She felt that the earth was round, she met the man who shared her umbre again and she was saved by him.

    The moment she was in that person¡¯s arms, she seemed to feel something very familiar.

    She started to miss Nathan. Many years passed, and she counted each cold winter wind, that image was far away, no longer hoped to meet again. She didn¡¯t know if he still remembered or if he had forgotten.

    The night gradually disappears, and morning approaches. The morning dew drops on the rose petals gently broke in half, and the scent of smoke from the coffee cup made Dn feel so relieved.

    After all this time, he was finally able to see Nancy again, hold her in his arms, and take her home.

    Dn was rxing with soft music when the phone on the table vibrated slightly, and Stephen¡¯s name appeared on the screen.

    ¡°What¡¯s up?¡± Dn asked.

    ¡°Do you want to drink coffee?¡± Stephen asked back.

    ¡°I¡¯m drinking coffee at home.¡±

    ¡°The president is stingy. If you drink coffee at home, who will the coffee shop sell it to?¡±

    ¡°For you.¡±

    After listening, Stephen immediately hung up. He can¡¯t turn himself into an autistic person like Dn, so he¡¯s determined to find a girlfriend this winter.

    After finishing his cup of tea, he leisurely drove to the hair salon. When the hair salon owner saw Stephen, he felt like he had found gold. He smiled softly and his eyes narrowed.

    If there wasn¡¯t a good barber here, even if someone gave him more money he wouldn¡¯te because this ce is quite far.

    The hair salon is a bit shabby but very clean. Besides, he¡¯s gotten used to it and has habits he doesn¡¯t want to give up.

    As soon as the barber finished cutting Stephen¡¯s hair, he walked out and saw the haughty employee he met yesterday, so he quickly followed, leaving the car in front of the hair salon.

    Looking at the girl carrying many bags but walking, he guessed her house was probably nearby.

    In Nancy¡¯s hands, there were boxes used to store documents and food recently purchased from the supermarket.

    After walking a while, she felt like someone was following her, so she walked quickly.

    Stephen saw her suddenly speed up so he quickly followed. When he reached the alley, he lost sight of her.

    As he looked back and forth, he suddenly heard a pop right in the middle of his face. He felt as if a meteorite had fallen, so he quickly covered his face with his hands and screamed.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°Deputy General Manager.¡± Nancy was scared and stuttered.

    Stephen opened his eyes to look at the girl. If it were anyone else, he would beat her up, but she was the muse in his heart so he couldn¡¯t take action.

    ¡°You¡¯re bleeding.¡± Nancy¡¯s voice trembled.

    ¡°Nancy, are you a member of an evil cult? Why do you act so cruelly?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡±

    Seeing Nancy showing remorse, Stephen immediately took the opportunity and demandedpensation from her. Finally, Nancy had to take him home.

    Although the wound was small, Stephen¡¯s nose was swollen and looked like a clown.

    She gently wiped away the blood and then applied medicine to him. He feigned pain and groaned. At such a close distance, he saw her eyes were sad.

    ¡°It¡¯s done, it will probably take a few days for the swelling to go away.¡± Nancy pretended to regret it.

    ¡°What should I do? I am the face of Global Group, I have many appointments next week. How much do you hate me to act so harshly?¡± Stephen spoke up.

    ¡°No, I didn¡¯t know it was you, I thought some pervert was following me, so¡­¡± She tried to exin.

    ¡°So¡­ now you¡¯re letting that pervert into your house.¡±

    ¡°Can you leave yet?¡±

    ¡°Not yet. I have to get somepensation, I haven¡¯t eaten anything this morning.¡±

 Chapter 10

    After speaking, Stephen ran to the bag of food, quickly grabbed the fish, and took it to ughter.

    Nancy was so surprised that she became dumb and didn¡¯t react. She looked at Stephen¡¯s agile hands and secretly admired him.

    ¡°Do you know how to cook?¡± She asked.

    ¡°Of course, when I studied abroad, I also cooked my meals.¡± Stephen proudly boasted.

    ¡°My boss cooked for me like this, I wonder how many good things I have done?¡±

    ¡°If you don¡¯t criticize me, I will cook for you all my life.¡± Stephen winked mischievously.

    Nancy smiled slightly, simply because she thought it was just a joke. Carrying the bunch of vegetables to the table, she picked them up while reminiscing.

    Before, when she was at Nathan¡¯s house, every time she cooked, he woulde down to help her like this, he would do all the fish and meat, and she just had to pick up the vegetables.

    Soon Stephen finished cooking. Nancy looked at him, he looked professional like a chef.

    In her imagination, a rich young man like Stephen would never have to do these things.

    ¡°Is it delicious?¡± Stephen looked at her with expectant eyes.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    ¡°Very delicious. If you¡¯re unemployed, you can open a restaurant.¡±

    ¡°I think so, too.¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m just kidding, you¡¯re a deputy general manager, how can you open a restaurant?¡±

    Nancy only bought enough food for herself for two meals, but now another man suddenly appeared so all the food was gone.

    Stephen ate very enthusiastically, he felt extremely delicious. If he coulde here every day to eat, he would soon be obese.

    After eating, both of them went to the living room to drink tea and chat. That happy and cheerful scene caught the eyes of the man standing outside looking in because the curtains were still open.

    Dn clenched his hands, pursed his lips, and looked at them for a long time, then quietly turned the car around and drove quickly home. When he arrived, he went straight upstairs and into his room.

    Hearing the sound of the door mming shut, Cam shook her head sadly.

    This afternoon, her son was a little happy when he left the house, but now his face is frowning again.

    Because Cam saw that Rosalind had no hope of winning Dn¡¯s affection, for many years she actively set up matches for countless girls for him, but he waspletely indifferent.

    If she talked too much, he would go see them, and the next day she would be med by that girl. And now, she knew that he was drinking in his room.

    In the sunless room, the ss of wine in Dn¡¯s hand was empty. The tablemp wasn¡¯t too bright, but it was enough for him to see the bride¡¯s face.

    The wedding photo of her and him has always hung above the bed for many years. She said she didn¡¯t love him, but he saw in that smile a sky of happiness.

    In the past, she and he were as close as a pair of birds. He entered his first love with all sincerity, not thinking that one day the wind would leave the clouds.

    The image of her smiling and happily drinking tea with Stephen appeared again in front of him. He felt that she lived a very good life. After a few days, she could make new friends.

    Dn¡¯s heart ached. He wondered why he was the only one suffering. Her heartless words from the past echoed in his ears: ¡°I don¡¯t love you at all. If I don¡¯t need a ce to stay and need money to pay tuition, do you think I will agree to stay with you? Now that I¡¯ve graduated, I can take care of myself, so why should I force myself?¡±

    The sound of the ss falling was like the sound of Dn¡¯s heart breaking. He stood up, reached out, and gently touched the bride¡¯s face in the photo, smiling bitterly.

    ¡°My wife, I will make you agree to be with me again.¡±

    Lying down on the bed, Dn struggled for a long time and then gradually fell asleep. He slept until afternoon and night, not waking up to eat or drink anything.

    It wasn¡¯t until the rm clock rang that he got out of bed and prepared to go to thepany.

    On the first morning of the new week, snow fell. In front of thepany gate, everyone hurriedly entered.

    When Stephen saw the girl wearing a cotton jacket, he immediately remembered the bear his mother gave him on his fifth birthday.

    ¡°Nancy.¡± He called as he ran to Nancy¡¯s side.

    ¡°Deputy general director, hello, your nose¡­¡±

    ¡°The swelling has subsided, thanks to you, I¡¯ve received a lot of attention this morning.¡±

    Hearing his tone, Nancy could onlyugh. Fortunately, Mina had just arrived and encountered Stephen so she stopped to ask, so Nancy quickly ran away, giving them space.

    While chatting with Stephen, Mina received a call from a customer, so she quickly said goodbye to him and went straight to Lyle¡¯s office.

    Seeing that Nancy was also here, Mina smiled, nodded slightly and put the documents on the desk.

    ¡°Mr. Lyle, the partner has just sent a notice, saying that their boss is still not satisfied with the design ideas for this jewelry set.¡±

    ¡°Okay. Let me look again.¡± He nodded slightly.

    Mina bowed again and then ran away. Lyle manages so many things, so as his assistant, she also has a lot of hard work.

    In one day, if someone watches the camera, they will see this beautiful girl running up and down, running back and forth between floors and departments continuously.

    Perhaps thanks to that, Mina has had a slim figure for many years while other employees had to go on weight loss regimens.

    ¡°Design inspired by winter?¡± Nancy asked softly.

    ¡°Right.¡± Lyle said as he pushed the manuscript towards her.

    ¡°Do you think white snowkes with hot-colored gemstones are a good idea?¡±

    ¡°What is its name?¡±

    ¡°Flowers bloom in the middle of winter, and snow falls in the middle of summer.¡±

 Chapter 11

    After speaking, and seeing Lyle looking out the window without answering, Nancy felt a little confused.

    ¡°I¡¯m just talking nonsense, I¡¯m not familiar with this field.¡±

    ¡°No. I¡¯m picturing them, they¡¯re really beautiful.¡± He replied.

    Nancy quickly folded the manuscript. Initially, she came to consult Lyle about script ideas for Wynn¡¯s uing MV, but in the end, she talked about jewelry fashion. She felt like she was talking too much.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    ¡°Then I¡¯ll just follow the original idea.¡± She lowered her voice.

    ¡°Okay, when it¡¯s done, send it to me.¡±

    ¡°Yes, goodbye.¡±

    Waiting for Nancy to leave, Lyle reached out and picked up the magazine, smiling and looking at it.

    The face on the cover of this month¡¯s fashion magazine is Rosalind. Her cold beauty when transformed into an ice goddess received countlesspliments from everyone.

    At this moment, the girl he was thinking about was sitting by the window and lost in a stream of uncertain thoughts. Inside the room was her manager, Alisa.

    ¡°Rosalind, your page is growing exponentially.¡± Alisa¡¯s face showed satisfaction as she looked at theputer screen.

    ¡°So what? I don¡¯t care.¡± Rosalind caressed the pot of roses on the window sill and replied indifferently.

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? Shouldn¡¯t you be happy?¡± Alisa frowned and asked.

    ¡°I feel like a disoriented person.¡±

    ¡°You see, you worked so hard to get into this profession and then say you have no direction.¡±

    Rosalind put down the flower pot and sighed. As the sole heir of SN Group, she doesn¡¯t have to stay upte and wake up early to film.

    Since childhood, she has wanted to be a real actress. But now she has a bigger dream that dominates all her thoughts, sadness, and happiness, which is Dn.

    Witnessing his entire recovery process made her love him even more.

    For two years, Rosalind persistently stayed in country A to have the opportunity to take care of Dn even though her father was so angry that he wanted to disown his daughter. In return, there was still only Dn¡¯s indifferent attitude.

    Dn was willing to spend money to hire a private nurse while the Southernpany was having difficulties and did not let her touch him.

    Over the years, seeing him still lonely, she tried to console herself that perhaps he was too hurt from his past love so he was temporarily unwilling to open up.

    While Rosalind missed and thought about Dn, Dn was still attentively handling his work quickly to enter the meeting in the early afternoon.

    As thepany¡¯s business prospers, the number of meetings also increases.

    On busy work days, the watch seems to oppose everything, spinning freely.

    The meeting between the board of directors and senior staff ended at nearly five o¡¯clock in the afternoon. The bosses stood up and went straight to their offices, while the assistants stayed behind to collect documents.

    After the day Paul went to inquire about Nancy¡¯s whereabouts, he was noticed by Mina. From the moment she saw that girl move back to thepany and be close to Lyle, she assumed that Nancy was her boss¡¯s muse.

    At noon, not long after she left, she heard Lyle call, announcing that there would be a meeting in the design department tomorrow morning, so she was sure her thoughts were correct.

    She secretly thought that because Nancy was next to her boss, he was able toe up with such an idea so quickly.

    ¡°Mr. Paul.¡± Mina spoke up.

    ¡°Mina, you called me, right?¡± Paul asked stupidly.

    ¡°Of course, is there someone else here?¡±

    ¡°Do you have anything to ask me?¡±

    ¡°I just want to remind you that editor Nancy is the person in Mr. Lyle¡¯s heart. Don¡¯t be ignorant. Even though you are the president¡¯s assistant, if he puts you two on the scale, he will choose Mr. Lyle.¡±

    After saying that, Mina quickly walked past Paul. He raised his hand to adjust his sses, his face showing concern.

    He was thinking hard. If what Mina says is true, will the brotherhood between Lyle and Dn surelyst?

    This morning, Dn suddenly told him to let Dn drive by himself from now on and said that he had worked hard over the years so he should take some time to find a girlfriend.

    Paul didn¡¯t understand why Mina thought he had feelings for Nancy. Even though he has been single for many years, he still clearly distinguishes between which food to eat and which food to worship and does not dare to mix up the food.

    It was time to get off work, and although Stephen begged to take Nancy home, she steadfastly refused.

    She doesn¡¯t want other employees to talk about her. This morning, they just said hello outside the door, and already someone was talking nonsense.

    So, Stephen stopped the car some distance from the bus stop and waited for her to get on the bus before leaving. As soon as the bus left the curb, Dn¡¯s car followed.

    Nancy bought some cakes and went to the park. She felt a bit tired so she didn¡¯t want to cook.

    The scene was quiet, the old swing made a creaking sound. As she was dreamily rxing, a sudden coughing sound startled her and she almost choked.

    When she looked up and saw the tall man standing before her, she quickly swallowed the piece of cake and stood up.

    ¡°Why are you here?¡±

    ¡°You dropped it in the car yesterday.¡±

    Dn said and handed back the snowke keychain. Nancy smiled and took it, she thought it fell along the road.

    ¡°Thank you, I¡¯m so sorry to bother you, but¡­ I still don¡¯t know your name.¡± Nancy hesitantly spoke.

    ¡°Dn.¡±

    ¡°Your name resembles the name of the president of Global Group.¡±

    ¡°Do you know the president?¡±

    ¡°No, just heard, how can an ordinary employee like me know him?¡±

    Listening to her, Dn could only look at the sky and the earth. It turns out she thinks he is an old man.

    That¡¯s right, up until now, Lyle has always appeared for Global Group. Besides the senior staff and their assistants, none of the employees knew him.

 Chapter 12

    All day, Dn was in a bad mood, but when he saw Nancy refuse to get in Stephen¡¯s car in the afternoon, he felt veryfortable.

    Walking to the swing next to her, he gently sat down. Nancy saw that and sat down too.

    Deep down, she secretly appreciated the man who ran all the way here just to return the keychain to her.

    ¡°Which department do you work in?¡± She asked softly.

    ¡°On the eighth floor.¡±

    ¡°Are you an assistant?¡±

    ¡°Yes.¡±

    ¡°Someday I¡¯ll invite you to a meal to thank you. Can you give me your phone number?¡±

    ¡°Okay.¡±

    After saving each other¡¯s phone numbers, Nancy lifted her head and looked up at the sky. The soft smile on her lips seemed to dispel the ice in the hearts of the people next to her, rekindling old love.

    At this moment, Dn no longer hates her, he just wants to hold on to his love.

    After a while, Nancy proactively stood up, said goodbye to Dn, and returned home.

    He stood silently watching her lovely figure until it waspletely gone before he lifted his feet and walked out to the car.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    As soon as he arrived home, he saw his mother and the maid waiting at the door. When he asked, they said nothing happened so he went straight to his room.

    Because he was driving himself today, Cam was a little worried. Since the day that terrible ident happened, her son seems to have never sat behind the wheel.

    At ten o¡¯clock in the morning, everyone in the design room hurriedly returned to work because the meeting onlysted an hour.

    Mina breathed a sigh of relief, arranged the documents, and brought them back to the office.

    After hearing her briefly present the idea for the new jewelry set, customers also seemed quite satisfied.

    As soon as Lyle walked out, he was rushing to the next meeting. Today a group of customers from abroad arrived.

    When he arrived, Dn and Stephen were already sitting in the conference room. Stephen is the director in charge of the project, so he was present early.

    Initially, when Stephen was promoted to this chair, he used the excuse that he had no expertise to refuse.

    But Dn said the project director does not necessarily have to be a technical expert and he said he believes Stephen will do a very good job.

    Then, Dn gave Stephen a long list ofpetencies, attributes, and soft skills¡­

    Stephen looked at that and saw that he could meet the requirements, so he epted the position.

    As a result, he¡¯s been doing well all these years, and sometimes he even admires Dn¡¯s eyes.

    Stephen had heard a rumor about Dn being dumped by his greedy fiancee before getting married, so he was very curious.

    Stephen secretly thought that perhaps it was because Dn loved that girl so much that he was confused and couldn¡¯t see how good or bad she was.

    Exactly five minutester, the meeting started. Everyone listened attentively as Stephen presented details about the design of the Green Dream luxury resort. He looks so different from his usual crazy appearance now.

    ¡°We are very satisfied with the design of Global Group, but our side wants this project to bepleted sooner.¡± A male foreign customer spoke up.

    ¡°Our initial estimate is three years, and Global Group will try to speed up the progress. Wemit to handing over the project on the anniversary of yourpany¡¯s establishment.¡± Stephen said.

    ¡°Can it be faster? Such progress is too slow.¡± He continued to insist.

    ¡°Ourpany, in addition to making profits, also wants to bring the best and safest things to customers. Ifpleting the project early affects the quality, we absolutely cannot do it. I sincerely apologize.¡±

    After listening to Dn¡¯s words, the foreign partners nodded and expressed satisfaction. The group leader proactively stood up and extended his hand towards him.

    ¡°The Chairman is right, we should not do things that make us regretter just for immediate gain. I like your way of working. Let¡¯s work together happily in the future.¡±

    ¡°Happy cooperation.¡± Dn smiled and replied.

    The two men¡¯s handshake also ended the meeting. Lyle and Stephen took their partners to the restaurant for lunch. And Dn did not go with them but returned to the office.

    Sitting in the swivel chair and turning back and forth, he kept hesitating before Nancy¡¯s contact number. He¡¯s afraid that if he rushes too much, it will cause the opposite reaction.

    Paul was extremely worried when he saw his boss looking absent-minded like someone who had just fallen in love.

    Last night, Cam called him, wondering about Dn driving himself. He could only answer that it was his boss¡¯s order.

    Although Cam vaguely guessed that Dn intended to pursue someone, Paul insisted that he was not, it was just because his boss was worried about him being single for a long time so he gave him some free time to find his other half.

    Today continues to be a busy day for both bosses and employees. In the afternoon, Nancy left thepany early, she needed some inspiration for this script.

    She heard that Wynn will fly back from country A tomorrow. She also wants to meet him once to build a suitable character image.

    Outside, the snow falls more and more. Nancy answered Kent¡¯s phone call and quickly walked towards the main door. Because the main actors had some requests to change the script, Kent asked her to revise it.

    Just as she put the phone in her bag, she bumped into a young man who was eagerly entering, causing both of them to fall in the middle of the hall.

    Nancy quickly stood up, looking over at the young man who was also crawling up. The cap on his head flew away, revealing a white face with dyed brown hair.

    ¡°Wynn, you are Wynn, right?¡± Nancy eximed as if she had caught gold.

    Wynn put his cap back on, turned to look at the girl, and nodded slightly. His face was bewildered because he had not yet recognized who the object in front of him was.

 Chapter 13

    ¡°I heard Mr. Lyle say you won¡¯t be returning home until tomorrow.¡± Nancy walked closer to Wynn and continued.

    ¡°I returned home a day earlier than nned, but¡­ who are you? You know me? I still haven¡¯t debuted.¡± Wynn asked shyly.

    ¡°Ah. Let me introduce myself, I¡¯m Nancy, I¡¯m also the person in charge of writing the script for your first MV.¡± She answered while holding out her hand.

    ¡°You are editor Nancy, the person behind a series of adapted works by writer Song, right?¡±

    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s me. Do you have time tomorrow? I need to talk a bit about the character¡­¡±

    ¡°We can talk now.¡±

    Before Nancy could finish speaking, Wynn grabbed her and dragged her out. She was so surprised that she could only follow in his footsteps.

    This guy looks so skinny but is so strong. Looking at the car he drove, she guessed that he was also a wealthy man, probably a young boy from some family who dreamed of bing a star, so his father sent him to Global Group for promotion.

    Wynn took Nancy around the streets and stopped at a small cafe with a very artistic look. The tables and chairs are painted white to match the winter snow scene.

    ¡°What kind of personality will the character you create for me have?¡± Wynn rested his chin on his hand, looked at Nancy, and winked mischievously.

    ¡°Mr. Lyle oriented the script towards a sad love story, so the male lead will have many hidden corners in his soul, but you look like this¡­¡±

    ¡°You keep writing so that the main character¡¯s fate is tragic, from beginning to end he is rejected, and then he is so heartbroken that hemits suicide.¡± Wynn quickly interrupted her words.

    ¡°But that would be so sad. At least at first, there must have been a deep love and then because of some misunderstanding, the two characters had to separate, which is what torments the audience. Also, I won¡¯t let the male lead die.¡± Nancy exined strongly.

    Before Wynn could say anything more, he saw Rosalind and Alisa appear. His cheerful face suddenly turned indifferent.

    ¡°Wynn, have you just returned home?¡± Rosalind approached Wynn and asked.

    ¡°Do famous stars also go to ces like that?¡± Wynn smiled sarcastically.

    ¡°What are you saying? I¡¯ve always been very ordinary.¡±

    After speaking, Rosalind¡¯s eyes moved to Nancy. Although she only saw Nancy once, she clearly remembered the face of the girl under the ginkgo tree in the past.

    Nancy also just stood up at this time. The two girls looked at each other for a long time, not saying a word.

    ¡°You two know each other, why don¡¯t you say hello? The title of goddess that Miss Rosalind got was thanks to Miss Nancy.¡± Wynn spoke up.

    ¡°Are you the editor Nancy?¡± Rosalind squinted her eyes and asked.

    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s me.¡± Nancy answered briefly.

    Rosalind had heard the name of editor Nancy before, but she did not think that life could have such rare situations.

    At this moment, fear arose in her. Could it be that this girl and Dn have rekindled their old love, and the broken mirror has healed?

    However, Rosalind still tried to appear calm and smiled.

    ¡°Thank you, Bright Moonlight has brought my name closer to the audience.¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s because you act well that the role is so sessful. I don¡¯t dare take credit.¡±

    As soon as Nancy finished speaking, Wynn suddenly stood up, stuffed the payment under the coffee cup, grabbed her hand, pulled her out of the cafe, pushed her into the car, and drove away.

    Alisa looked after them, bewildered, and Rosalind couldn¡¯t understand why this boy hated her so much.

    In the past, she studied for a master¡¯s degree in business administration at the same time as the theater and film academy, and Wynn and Daniel also studied there.

    However, after Wynn graduated, he changed his direction to singing.

    Rosalind was Lyle¡¯s ssmate. Lyle went to work right after graduating from college and did not go to graduate school like her.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    In the past, although the rtionship between her and Wynn was not close, they still talked normally, but a few yearster when they met again, he didn¡¯t even want to talk to her.

    ¡°Alisa, I heard that Wynn is about to debut, I want to star in the MV with him.¡± Rosalind turned to Alisa and asked in a low voice.

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you? A famous person like you appears with a nameless kid?¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s okay. Anything that can help me get involved with Global Group, I will do.¡±

    After speaking, Rosalind quickly walked to the car. Alisa shook her head, bored, and ran after her.

    Previously, Daniel rmended Rosalind for the role of Selena. Although she didn¡¯t like him at all, because she wanted to have something to do with Dn, she agreed.

    The roads are covered with a thickyer of snow. When the luxury car reaches this road, it slows down.

    Nancy looked at Wynn and wondered what kind of grudge he had against Rosalind that made him look like someone had eaten all his cake.

    ¡°Where is your house? I¡¯ll take you home.¡± Wynn asked, his eyes still attentively observing the front.

    ¡°No. 277, Street X.¡± Nancy replied.

    When the car arrived at her house, he dropped her off and drove away very quickly.

    Nancy watched until the supercar disappeared before searching for the key to open the gate.

    Just as she put the key in the lock, a man¡¯s voice suddenly spoke up right next to her.

    ¡°Miss Nancy.¡±

    ¡°Mr. Dn, why are you here?¡± Nancy asked in surprise as a greeting.

    ¡°You said you wanted to invite me to a meal, but I waited forever without seeing your call.¡±

    ¡°Ah. So let¡¯s go now.¡±

    Dn smiled and quickly walked to the car. Nancy also took back the key and followed him closely.

    She also didn¡¯t think that he woulde to find her because of the meal she had just promised yesterday.

 Chapter 14

    She had just opened the back door and was about to get in when he suddenly spoke.

    ¡°Please take the seat next to me.¡±

    ¡°What?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m afraid that if I drive too fast, I¡¯ll make you motion sick. Sitting in the front seat is better.¡±

    ¡°Oh, okay.¡± She replied and obediently did as he said.

    As soon as Nancy sat down, Dn suddenly leaned over and put his arm around her, causing both of their faces to be a very short distance apart. She was so surprised that she became motionless.

    When he returned to his ce, she breathed a sigh of relief. Turns out he was just helping her put on her seat belt.

    ¡°What would you like to eat? Where?¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s up to you, you¡¯re the main character.¡±

    Dn smiled slightly, drove the car towards the main road, and stopped in front of the gate of a luxury restaurant.

    Nancy saw that and felt a bit sorry for her wallet. She secretly thought that this man knew how to choose. She consoled herself by thinking that her life was worth this much.

    The light radiating from the chandeliers hanging from the ceiling makes the space even more luxurious. Dn thoughtfully picked up food and peeled shrimp for Nancy.

    She was a bit shy so she kept eating, not daring to look up at him. Only when she saw that the meal was almost over did she quietly speak up.

    ¡°I¡¯m going to the bathroom for a moment.¡±

    After finishing speaking, Nancy quickly stood up and walked quickly while keeping her head bowed.

    She needed to adjust her face to normal because she was afraid that when she paid to leave, being seen by him would make her extremely embarrassed.

    Looking at her face in the mirror, which was red, she silently scolded herself, no wonder she kept feeling hot.

    Is it because she was single for so long that when she saw a man, she became like this?

    But clearly, she had interacted with and sat down to eat with many men but never had this feeling.

    When she regained herposure, she quickly returned to the table and saw Dn waiting, his hands in his pockets, his feet tapping the floor, he seemed very happy.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Dn tilted his head slightly, signaling.

    ¡°Let me pay first.¡± Nancy stood on tiptoe to look for the waiter.

    ¡°I¡¯ve already paid.¡±

    ¡°Why did you pay? I¡¯m the one who invited you.¡±

    ¡°Then let¡¯s go eat sweet soup. You will pay for that portion.¡±

    Dn said and turned away quickly, smiling. Nancy¡¯s stupid and bewildered expression made him feel like he was back in the past.

    The two of them stopped at a sweet soup restaurant on the side of the road.

    Snow is still falling heavily. She missed Nathan again. This is where he often takes her to eat every weekend.

    Why did she feel that the man sitting opposite her was very familiar? Today, she intended to ask Rosalind about Nathan¡¯s news, but before she could open her mouth, Wynn dragged her away.

    The space fell into silence. Looking at the wedding ring on Dn¡¯s ring finger, Nancy used an excuse to start a conversation to avoid embarrassment.

    ¡°How many children do you have?¡±

    ¡°Why do you ask that?¡± Dn raised his eyebrows in surprise.

    ¡°Because¡­¡± Nancy pointed at the ring.

    ¡°Still not.¡±

    ¡°Oh, you probably don¡¯t want to have children yet, right?¡±

    ¡°I am still not married.¡±

    Nancy¡¯s face turned stupid. She bent down and quickly ate the bowl of sweet soup. At the same time, the phone ringing in Dn¡¯s pocket rang. He quickly picked up the phone and spoke politely.

    ¡°Mom.¡±

    ¡°You haven¡¯te back yet?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m going to eat with my colleagues. Mom and Aunt Jenny can eat first, don¡¯t wait for me.¡±

    Nancy nced at the man who left his mother alone at home to go to dinner with her, and then had to pay for her, and suddenly felt sorry for that mother. She turned to the restaurant owner and called out.

    ¡°Uncle, please give me two servings of sweet red bean and lotus seed soup to take home.¡±

    ¡°You want to eat two more servings of sweet soup, huh? Eating too much is not good.¡± Dn asked worriedly.

    ¡°No, I bought them for your mother and Aunt Jenny. Warm vor suitable for cold winter days like this.¡± She shook her head, smiled, and replied.

    Dn looked at her without blinking. His Nancy is still as observant as ever. There was a bit of warmth creeping into his seemingly frozen heart.

    Last night, after meeting her and returning, he slept soundly without needing alcohol. He hopes to quickly win her heart so that he will no longer have long, restless nights.

    After paying, both of them went to the car. Nancy didn¡¯t need Dn to say anything else, she opened the car door herself and sat next to him so he could take her home.

    ¡°Goodbye, have a good night.¡± She turned to Dn and spoke softly as soon as the car stopped in front of the gate.

    ¡°Good night.¡± He nodded slightly.

    Hearing her say good night, watching her disappear behind the gate, Dn felt his heart flutter, as if the young man from seven years ago had returned to the man who was over thirty years old.

    He smiled happily, pressed the elerator, and drove straight home.

    When Cam and Jenny saw Dn return, they were extremely happy. The two of them were still worried because they were afraid that he hadn¡¯t driven for a long time and wouldn¡¯t get used to it.

    ¡°What is this?¡± Cam took the bag from her son¡¯s hand and was extremely surprised.

    ¡°Red bean sweet soup with lotus seeds. I heard that when it¡¯s cold, you should eat this.¡± He answered.

    Dn had gone upstairs and was out of sight, but the two women were still standing nkly looking at each other.

    The other day he left home happy but when he returned he was frowning. Today he bought sweet soup like this, so they don¡¯t know if there will be any more trouble tomorrow.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Thinking about that, Cam was extremely worried but also very happy and touched, she felt like Nathan had returned.

 Chapter 15

    When the clock struck eleven thirty, everyone left the office one by one and went to the cafeteria.

    As soon as Nancy sat down, Stephen suddenly appeared, standing right in front of her, holding a portion of rice in his hand.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.

    ¡°Can I sit here? Do you mind?¡± Stephen happily spoke up.

    ¡°No disturb.¡±

    Even though she said that, she felt extremely ufortable because countless eyes were focused on them.

    Usually, big bosses nevere to the employee cafeteria, but suddenly today Stephen came so everyone was surprised.

    Nancy tried to eat as quickly as possible. She had a cold, was tired, and didn¡¯t want to eat rice, but right now she looked like she could eat the whole world.

    When Stephen saw her eating quickly, he looked bewildered.

    ¡°You should eat slowly, it¡¯s not like you don¡¯t chew, right?¡± He asked with wide eyes.

    ¡°I¡¯m done eating, I¡¯ll leave now.¡±

    Nancy put thest spoonful of rice into her mouth and quickly stood up while Stephen¡¯s rice was still intact.

    He smiled to himself and then chewed and chewed to finish. Lately, he and Dn are both busy with projects early next year so they don¡¯t have time for themselves anymore.

    Today he arranged some time toe see her, but she avoided him.

    At noon, all the editorial staff were out of the office, leaving only Nancy alone.

    She took a small mat and spread it on the floor to take a nap. Because she still hasn¡¯t recovered from her cold, she doesn¡¯t feel very well.

    ¡°Nancy.¡±

    The sudden call made her startled and almost jumped. When she turned to look, she saw Stephen staring at her.

    ¡°Mr. Stephen, are you trying to threaten me to death?¡± She put her hands on her chest and red.

    ¡°Take it.¡± Stephen gave her a bag of medicine and fruit.

    ¡°This is¡­¡±

    ¡°If you have a cold like this, you should take antibiotics and eat more citrus fruits. I wrote the morning dose and evening dose, don¡¯t be mistaken.¡±

    After speaking, Stephen stood up and left. The tall figure in the designer suit gradually disappeared.

    Nancy quickly stood up, ran out, and called out.

    ¡°Deputy general director, thank you.¡±

    ¡°Go take your lunch break, goodbye.¡± Stephen did not turn his head, just waved his hand.

    He intended to tell her that he had to go abroad on business for a week but saw that she was avoiding him, so he didn¡¯t tell her.

    He told himself that he had to be a little more gentle, otherwise, he was afraid that every time he appeared, that teddy bear would run away.

    Paul had been witnessing everything so he was extremely confused. It seemed that Stephen also had feelings for this editor.

    Just now, when he overheard the staff talking to each other about Stephen suddenlying to eat with the staff, he was not surprised.

    But when he heard them say that Stephen had eaten with Nancy, he immediately came here to investigate.

    Paul felt that his boss¡¯s fate was miserable. Many years had passed before his boss noticed a girl, but now two of his associates were staring at that girl. Paul didn¡¯t know whether he should tell Dn or not.

    After thinking about it, in the end, he decided to keep quiet, pretending he didn¡¯t hear, didn¡¯t see, and didn¡¯t know.

    While he was in a tangle of spection, the phone vibrated slightly, he quickly picked it up, and on the other end of the line was Kent¡¯s voice.

    ¡°Mr. Paul, I heard that you are familiar with director E, right?¡±

    ¡°I know her. But what¡¯s wrong?¡±

    ¡°The hotel I borrowed the other day as a filming location suddenly got repaired. The situation is that I haven¡¯t been able to find a suitable recement. Can you help me borrow her Chessboard hotel? In this area, only this hotel is the most suitable for the scenario¡¯s requirements.¡±

    ¡°Hey, Director Kent, why don¡¯t you go to Global Group¡¯s hotel to film?¡±

    ¡°Assistant Kent, the character in this movie is amoner, very poor, and staying in those five-star hotels is not appropriate at all. Please help for art.¡±

    Paul shook his head in boredom. This guy always wants to make things difficult for himself and then make others miserable.

    Seeing that it was already afternoon work hours, he called E.

    ¡°Hello Miss E, I am Paul.¡±

    ¡°Yes, I have your phone number, is something wrong?¡± A small female voice spoke up.

    ¡°Ah, our film crew has a problem with the filming location. Can you arrange for them to borrow the Chessboard Hotel for a week?¡±

    ¡°Of course, I agree, please tell them to call me directly.¡±

    ¡°Thank you.¡±

    ¡°Nothing. Oh, and about the Sunny House project, do you have any information?¡±

    ¡°The president hasn¡¯t said anything yet, I¡¯ll remind him.¡±

    ¡°Yes, thank you.¡±

    E put the phone back in her bag, her eyes looking towards the distant beach. The eternal silver waves run one after another to the shore.

    Since her father¡¯s death, she has had to carry the Gxypany by herself. Sometimes she feels so tired. It all seemed too overwhelming for a little girl like her.

    She waited for a phone call from Global Group every second and every minute. If Dn refuses, she will have no choice but toply with the wishes of those who want to transfer the project.

    As dusk gradually fell, Nancy nced at the right corner of theputer screen and saw that it was almost five o¡¯clock in the afternoon.

    The other employees all left one by one, but she tried to stay. The ideas were pouring out so she had to quickly write them down, otherwise she was afraid she would forget them in a moment.

    She was so engrossed in typing that she lost track of time. When she looked up, it was already dark.

    It seemed that she had to take two buses because the direct bus to her home was gone.

 Chapter 16

    After packing up the documents and turning off theputer, Nancy quickly grabbed her bag and stood up.

    As soon as she stepped out of the room, the electric light suddenly went out, the space was engulfed in ck.

    She quickly searched for her phone, but couldn¡¯t find it.

    There were very close footsteps walking down the hallway, the light from that direction was enough for Nancy to recognize a tall figure.

    She was scared and quickly groped back into the room. Unfortunately, she couldn¡¯t see anything so she bumped into the edge of the desk and fell.

    A few secondster, the light from the phone shined directly on her scared and painful face.

    ¡°Are you okay?¡±

    Dn quickly ran to Nancy¡¯s side and helped her up, his face showing concern.

    She clung to him, trying to get up, her left wrist and leg were both in pain, seemingly unable to walk anymore.

    At this moment, the building suddenly lit up again, causing her to shyly let go of Dn and step back slightly.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    He bent down to pick up her bag and suddenly lifted her in his arms.

    ¡°Mr. Dn, what are you doing?¡± She widened her eyes in surprise.

    ¡°Your leg must be sprained, let me help.¡±

    He carried her to the elevator door. She understood and reached out to press the button.

    Looking at the girl¡¯s face, which was now contorted in pain, he felt that she was extremely adorable, and he was also heartbroken. This girl looks a lot fatterpared to seven years ago.

    The car drove straight to a specialized clinic, the doctor adjusted her arms and legs, and after bandaging, turned to Dn to give instructions.

    ¡°Your wife¡¯s arms and legs are all sprained, so she will have to limit her movements for the next few days.¡±

    ¡°I know, thank you, doctor.¡±

    Nancy intended to exin, but the way Dn responded was like tacitly admitting to the doctor that she was his wife.

    So she ignored it, thinking that she didn¡¯t know him at all, so even if he misunderstood, it wouldn¡¯t matter.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go somewhere for dinner.¡± Dn turned to Nancy and suggested as soon as he finished fastening his seat belt.

    ¡°Okay.¡± She smiled and agreed.

    Both of them continued towards the main road. While driving past the huge mansion located right in the center, Dn conveniently pointed out to Nancy that it was the home of star Daniel, who yed the main role in the script she edited herself.

    Inside the mansion, the man was swinging on a swing under the canopy of an Indian oak tree when he suddenly sneezed several times.

    Daniel silently cursed and wondered who mentioned his name at this hour. He is the heir of Emery, the banking tycoon.

    Although he was passionate about acting, because he followed his father¡¯s wishes, he studied at two universities at the same time.

    The day he held a master¡¯s degree in banking and finance, Emery agreed to let him enter the entertainment industry to satisfy his passion.

    But Emery said that one year before he leaves the chairmanship, Daniel must return to take over the bank.

    During the years studying together at the Academy of Theater and Cinema, he fell in love with the beauty Rosalind and has always been like that until now.

    When the two of them worked together in the movie Bright Moonlight, it was the happiest time for him because he could see and be close to Rosalind more.

    Everyone in the film crew spected that they loved each other because their acting was sopatible.

    However, when the movie just finished filming, even having a dinner date together was extremely difficult.

    Thinking for a long time, his fingers found the number he had memorized and pressed the call button.

    ¡°Rosalind, it¡¯s me, let¡¯s meet tomorrow and have a meal together.¡±

    ¡°I have to shoot amercial tomorrow, I¡¯m very busy.¡± Rosalind¡¯s voice seemed ufortable.

    ¡°What about the day after tomorrow?¡±

    ¡°My schedule this month is full.¡±

    ¡°Rosalind, you shouldn¡¯t refuse me forever like that, what happened before¡­¡±

    ¡°Daniel, are you threatening me?¡±

    ¡°No, but I also have my limits.¡±

    ¡°Then please text me the address tomorrow when you arrive.¡±

    Rosalind¡¯s thin, white hand gripped the phone tightly, and soon blue veins appeared. Daniel used old stories to threaten her again.

    If she knew it wouldn¡¯t change anything, she wouldn¡¯t have done it. Over the years, the shadow of sin still surrounds her every night.

    Rushing to the wine cab, she took out a bottle of wine. Her hand trembled, causing the red liquid to flow into the ss and scatter all over the table.

    She drank half a bottle of wine in a row, tears falling from her eyes. That ck mark she never wants anyone else to know about.

    Alisa came homete again today because she was busy negotiating advertising contracts. In therge and luxurious house, there was only the sound of Rosalind¡¯s cries.

    The darkness is sometimes the obsession of one person but brings happiness to another, and that happy person is Dn.

    Today, he continued to eat at the same table with Nancy, so he was very happy.

    When the car arrived at the gate of the house, Dn stopped and turned to look at Nancy, who was already dozing off.

    Just now, after eating, she took the medicine that Stephen bought for her at noon and took it, so she fell asleep, and Dn deliberately drove around to make the road farther.

    Looking at her chubby face like the moonlight on a full moon night, he couldn¡¯t control his emotions, so he gently approached her and kissed her on her forehead. His lovesick eyes sparkled with a happy smile.

    ¡°Mr. Dn.¡± Nancy suddenly woke up. She was surprised to see the man¡¯s face at a close distance.

    ¡°Ah, I wanted to wake you up, but you were sleeping too soundly.¡± Dn was a little confused.

    ¡°Probably because of the cold medicine.¡± Nancy shyly med cold medicine.

    ¡°Give me the key.¡± He put his hand out in front of her and said gently.

 Chapter 17

    Dn took the key in his hand, got out of the car, opened the gate, went to open the door, then turned around, carried Nancy inside, and put her on the bed.

    Looking at her sitting like an invalid, he couldn¡¯t bear to leave and didn¡¯t know what to say to get her to let him stay so he kept hesitating.

    ¡°Please go home. Lock the door and throw the key into the yard for me. Tomorrow I¡¯ll be less sore and I¡¯ll pick it up myself.¡± She smiled and spoke.

    ¡°Are you okay?¡±

    ¡°Of course.¡±

    Dn nodded slightly and did as she said. As he walked out the gate, he suddenly remembered he had left his car keys on the table so he turned back.

    When he entered the room, he couldn¡¯t see Nancy anywhere, so he quickly ran around the house looking for her. Finally, he stopped in front of the bathroom door.

    ¡°Miss Nancy, are you in there?¡± His voice clearly showed concern.

    Nancy was lying t on the floor, unable to stand up. She intended to take a shower before going to bed, but before she could get dressed, she slipped and fell, causing pain all over her body.

    ¡°Nancy, what¡¯s wrong with you? Please answer me quickly.¡± Dn hurriedly knocked on the door.

    ¡°Don¡¯te in here, please, don¡¯te in here.¡± Nancy grimaced.

    Hearing her voice like that, he could guess what was behind that door, so he quickly ran into the bedroom, rummaged around, and finally took out arge towel.

    ¡°I¡¯ll give you the towel, wrap yourself up and I¡¯ll carry you out.¡±

    After speaking, he quickly opened the door and threw the towel in. Nancy tried to move closer to the towel, struggled to wrap it around her body, and then called out.

    Dn opened the door and looked at the girl curled up on the floor. Her bun hair had a few strands still wet, water dripping down her white neck, making his face turn red.

    He awkwardly bent down and carried her out, put her back on the bed, hurriedly pulled the nket to cover her whole body, and ran straight to the balcony.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Nancy was a bit scared at first, but seeing Dn¡¯s appearance, she couldn¡¯t help butugh. His face looks cold but he¡¯s a shy guy.

    Outside on the balcony, Dn was also smiling to himself. He nced at the clumsy girl lying like a log in the room, and he felt even more ridiculous.

    After a while, he tried to regain his seriousness and then went back in, hesitantly suggesting.

    ¡°Can I¡­ can I stay? You¡¯re like this, it makes me feel uneasy.¡±

    ¡°There¡¯s a nket and a pillow in the closet, please take them and go to the living room.¡±

    ¡°Okay.¡± He replied briefly and went to the closet to search.

    After lying down on the sofa, Dn called Cam and told her that he wouldn¡¯t be home tonight. Then, he looked towards the stairs and suddenly smiled slightly.

    The winter night was cold but Dn felt extremely warm, perhaps because he was close to her, because a lonely heart would be even colder.

    During this time, every night he stood in front of her house and looked up until the light went out before returning to his house.

    Nathan¡¯s identity, he wants to bury forever. If she doesn¡¯t love Nathan, then just let him drift into oblivion, he will use this new identity to conquer that heart.

    When Dn fell asleep, the ne carrying Stephen had justnded at the airport in country Y.

    He dragged his suitcase to the arrival gate, telling himself that after this business trip, he would hire a personal assistant so that when he went on business trips, he would have someone to carry his things.

    Dn also said that before, but he kept saying he didn¡¯t need it. It¡¯s only been a few years, but now just pulling the suitcase makes him feel tired. He thought he was probably old.

    Steven and two blonde girls just walked in, warmly shook hands, and greeted Stephen. A girl quickly took the suitcase from Stephen¡¯s hand.

    Now he has changed his mind and thinks there is no need to hire an assistant anymore. If every partner is this thoughtful, why does he need an assistant?

    They took him to a luxury restaurant to have a meal. He was so tired after sitting on the ne for a few hours that he couldn¡¯t eat much, nor did he want to drink.

    He used to love parties like this, surrounded by many hot girls, but now he doesn¡¯t want them anymore.

    After eating, Stephen offered to go back to the hotel to rest and not go out anymore.

    The sky of Y country is also covered with snow. Looking out the window, his eyes were dreamy. This was the first time he went away and he wanted toe back quickly like this.

    The face of the cute girl wearing a warm cotton jacket kept circling in his mind forever.

    Tomorrow is Christmas, if he wasn¡¯t here, he would invite that teddy bear out.

    ¡°Nancy, Merry Christmas.¡±

    At exactly seven o¡¯clock in the morning, Mina was in front of Nancy¡¯s house. Last night, Dn texted her the address and told her toe early, and told her to buy two portions of food to bring here.

    Her beloved car was undergoing maintenance, so she had to take the bus for several trips.

    Seeing the president appear with disheveled hair and wrinkled clothes, Mina thought there was something wrong with her eyes.

    When she followed him into the house and upstairs, she was even more stunned when the door suddenly opened and Nancy limped out.

    ¡°You can dress yourself?¡± Dn asked.

    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s just a little longer than usual. Hello Miss Mina.¡± Nancy replied shyly and bowed to Lyle¡¯s assistant.

    ¡°Ah, I was afraid you couldn¡¯t move so I asked her to help. Everyone is a colleague.¡± Dn¡¯s face suddenly turned red.

    ¡°Mr. Dn asked, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be you.¡±

    Mina said as she turned to look at Dn. She felt so sorry for Lyle. Her boss was robbed of his muse by someone else.

    Looking at Nancy¡¯s appearance, Mina guessed that the noble president must have been starving for a long time to make this girl in such a state.

 Chapter 18

    ¡°You two just go to work, I¡¯ll call Mr. Lyleter to ask for a few days off.¡± Nancy spoke up.

    ¡°It will take a whole week.¡± Dn sighed, his face showing worry.

    ¡°I¡¯ll leave the food here.¡± Mina said as she ced the bag on the table.

    ¡°You only have one door key?¡± Dn continued to speak.

    ¡°No, I have two.¡± Nancy replied.

    ¡°Then let me lock the gate for you. You don¡¯t have to go out. I¡¯lle back this afternoon.¡±

    After Dn finished speaking, he walked away very quickly. Mina also quickly followed and got into the car with him.

    Through the rearview mirror, seeing Mina looking at him intently, he curled his mouth.

    ¡°What¡¯s up?¡±

    ¡°Nothing, I just wonder if the president of Global Group is about to have a wife?¡± Mina crossed her arms and asked.

    ¡°Right.¡±

    ¡°Right? President, when did you know her?¡± She asked urgently, almost wanting to jump up.

    ¡°I¡¯ve only known her recently, but I¡¯ve already determined it.¡±

    Mina couldn¡¯t say anything more. Looks like Lyle has run out of chances. She felt bitter for her boss.

    Arriving at thepany, Dn dropped Mina off in front of the gate and drove straight. A little distance away, Wynn witnessed it all.

    At first, he was about to turn into the gate, but because his mother was calling, he had to stop and answer the phone.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    For a long time, he had a crush on Mina, but she always saw him as a kid. The two of them met when Wynn was still studying at the Academy, at that time Mina was a colleague of Lyle, his half-brother.

    The first time he saw her solemnly dressed in thepany uniform, with her hair tied in a bun and her serene face following his brother home to ask for instructions on how to prepare bidding documents, he felt like he had lost his soul.

    The rtionship between Wynn, Lyle, and Dn is also extremely close. Wynn and Lyle¡¯s father is Dn¡¯s father¡¯s older brother.

    In the past, his grandfather entrusted the entire Southernpany to Dn¡¯s father to manage. His father was not satisfied so he left home.

    When Lyle was four years old, his mother died. The situation was difficult, but his father was determined not to go back to ask for help from his family. He sent Lyle to his grandmother to take care of him and then went abroad to make a living.

    There, he met and married the daughter of arge rancher, who was Wynn¡¯s mother, and gave birth to him.

    Although Wynn¡¯s parents wanted to take Lyle to live with them, he did not agree, so he grew up with his grandmother and his father regrly sent money to support him.

    When Wynn had just graduated from middle school, his parents brought him to live with Lyle because they were afraid that the two brothers would not have feelings for each other.

    Initially, upon graduating, Lyle applied to work for arge corporation. When Dn returned to take over thepany, he came to see Lyle and wanted Lyle to return with him to revive the family business.

    Although Lyle had a bad impression of his father¡¯s family, seeing his cousin return from death, he ignored everything and agreed, and Mina also followed him from there.

    After Lyle¡¯s father knew what happened to his nephew, he no longer hated Dn and let his two sons follow each other into the Global corporation.

    As soon as Dn got home, he quickly ran straight upstairs. Cam kept looking at her son¡¯s back. Even though his clothes were a bit wrinkled, his face still looked very happy, so she felt very reassured.

    Her husband passed away when he was quite young, so she took over the family¡¯s finances.

    Many years of working in the business world have made her extremely tired. Now Dn is running the group very well, so she knows her son is also under a lot of pressure.

    If it weren¡¯t for the Southernpany¡¯s financial difficulties, in the past she would not have let that girl leave her son.

    That was Cam¡¯s lifelong torment. She never thought that Dn¡¯s heart had gone with Nancy.

    Seeing that her son was old but still alone every night, borrowing alcohol to forget his love, she felt extremely sad.

    Dn raised his hand to caress the bride¡¯s face in the photo, dreaming of the day he could enter the wedding hall with her.

    He hopes that she will fall in love with him in the present and be his wife. Even if sheter discovered his true identity, it wouldn¡¯t matter because they were already married.

    After showering and changing clothes, he quickly returned to work at thepany.

    Paul has been lurking in front of the president¡¯s office door since early morning until now. He waited for his boss like waiting for his mother toe home from the market.

    Yesterday he promised E that he would help her ask Dn about the Sunny House project.

    She already lent the hotel to the film crew. Could it be that now she asked him for help and he didn¡¯t help? All he has to do is ask, and the purchasing is up to his boss.

    But when Dn arrived, Paul¡¯s mouth was still as tight as a m shell, unable to say anything.

    Seeing him sneak around all day, Dn couldn¡¯t help but ask first.

    ¡°What¡¯s up?¡±

    ¡°Boss, do you have any ns for the Sunny House project?¡± Paul quickly asked.

    ¡°What do you think?¡±

    ¡°Ah, the restaurant and hotelplex in that location has great potential for exploitation, we have the advantage of thendscape.¡±

    ¡°Tell her I agree. But because I don¡¯t destroy the orphanage, I want to build a road through the mountain with an overpass, across it.¡±

    ¡°Yes, I¡¯ll contact her right away.¡± Paul happily replied and ran away.

    In the deputy general manager¡¯s office, the pile of documents gradually dwindled with Lyle¡¯s hand movements.

    Mina stood next to him, looked at him with sympathetic eyes, and suddenly sighed.

 Chapter 19

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Lyle asked, his hands still scribbling on the pages.

    ¡°Oh, no, I¡¯m thinking when Nancy can go back to work.¡± Mina blurted out.

    ¡°It will probably take a week. Yesterday she came homete and thepany had a power outage so she fell.¡±

    ¡°That¡¯s what she said to you?¡±

    ¡°Yes, so stop thinking so hard.¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t think about anything.¡±

    Mina¡¯s face fell, she took the documents in Lyle¡¯s hand and left the office.

    It seemed that her boss believed Nancy absolutely, but Dn asserted that he had targeted that girl.

    He also told her not to reveal to Nancy that he was the president of Global Group. Is this called testing the heart of his dream person?

    She didn¡¯t know whether she should tell Lyle or not. In the end, for nobler reasons, she, like Paul, decided to keep silent.

    After distributing documents to departments, Mina went straight to the jewelry factory.

    The designs in the Winter Flowers and Summer Snow collection have beenpleted, tonight, they will be presented by models on Christmas Eve.

    While she was engrossed in watching, she suddenly heard her name being called.

    ¡°Miss Mina.¡± Wynn said as he quickly walked closer to her.

    ¡°Oh, Wynn. Why did youe here?¡± Mina squinted her eyes and smiled.

    ¡°I walked around.¡± He said as he raised his hand to caress the ne.

    ¡°How does it look?¡± Mina looked at him, expecting ament.

    ¡°The design is very beautiful, not confused with other products, unique in shape and unique in color. Abination of aesthetic sophistication and creativity.¡±

    ¡°Based on editor Nancy¡¯s idea, can you believe it?¡±

    ¡°That girl seems like Lyle, she can participate in anything.¡±

    Wynn said and nced at Mina who was smiling brightly. The sparkling jewelry around her could not obscure her beauty.

    In his eyes, she was as beautiful as a proud rose, making him unable to say he loved her even though he really wanted to.

    He was afraid that if she refused him, it would mean he would have difficulty talking and meeting normally with her.

    So for many years, he waited silently like a man walking alone with unrequited love.

    The sky gradually turned to afternoon and thenpletely dark. The light shimmers in the luxurious space and the light scent from the candle radiates gently.

    Daniel looked at the girl sitting opposite him, her beautiful face had not been happy since the moment she got in the car until now.

    ¡°I will participate in a big project soon, you¡­¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m very busy, these days I mainly domercials and represent brands, so I don¡¯t want to go back to acting yet.¡± Rosalind spoke up, interrupting Daniel¡¯s words.

    ¡°But I heard you agreed to act in Wynn¡¯s MV.¡±

    ¡°He is Lyle¡¯s younger brother and Lyle is my ssmate, I just want to help him a little.¡± Rosalind finished speaking and continued to bend down to eat.

    Daniel¡¯s fingers tightened around the stem of the wine ss, seemingly wanting to break it. He knew it was just a redundant reason.

    In the past, when Nathan had an ident, Rosalind also followed that man to country A for two consecutive years. When she returned, she said that Nathan had settled abroad and got married.

    But all these years, she still hasn¡¯t given him a chance. It¡¯s not a coincidence that he joined Global Group.

    Just because he saw Rosalind constantly epting to be a brand representative for this group, he suspected that she was interested in someone on the executive board.

    Daniel was always wondering whether that person was Lyle or Stephen. As for President Dn, he had never seen him before and he didn¡¯t know if Dn was old or young.

    ¡°I¡¯m done eating, I have to shoot an advertisement early tomorrow.¡± Rosalind said softly, putting down her fork and using a napkin to wipe her mouth.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°Let me take you home.¡±

    ¡°I called Alisa¡­¡±

    ¡°Rosalind.¡± Daniel growled.

    ¡°Okay.¡±

    She reluctantly nodded in agreement and followed him to the car after paying.

    On the way home, no one said a word to anyone. The two hearts of two lonely people cannot find the same beat.

    Rosalind clearly knew Daniel¡¯s feelings for her, but she loved Dn so she couldn¡¯t ept it.

    Daniel dropped Rosalind right at the gate and left. The car disappeared into the gloomy snow.

    Rosalind stood there for a long time, looking up at the church steeple in the distance, where the streak of light from a strange star was shining.

    Honestly, she wanted to go find Dn, but she didn¡¯t dare, she was afraid he would get angry.

    She once thought that if she knew anything that could threaten him to stay by her side, she would do it, but there was nothing. Dn now does not depend on anyone and has no weaknesses.

    Suddenly, she remembered Nancy again, she was sure that girl probably didn¡¯t know the truth.

    No one will have the courage to stay by someone¡¯s side when they know that person has be depressed and reached the brink of the abyss because of their betrayal.

    Rosalind promised Dn that she would keep his ident a secret for the rest of her life, so she couldn¡¯t say it. Only a few people close to Dn know this secret.

    The former employee of the Southernpany who transferred over has never seen Cam¡¯s son because he was only busy studying and never set foot in thepany.

    His dream is not to continue his parents¡¯ career but to be a university lecturer.

    Rosalind kept looking at the sky and the ground and thinking vaguely, so when Alisa stopped the car right in front of her, she still didn¡¯t know.

    When the female assistant spoke up, she was startled.

    ¡°You¡¯re going to visit your dad, why don¡¯t you ask Daniel to take you there too?¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t want my father to misunderstand and then associate me with him.¡± Rosalind replied as she got into the car.

    ¡°Next week we start filming for Wynn¡¯s MV, are you happy?¡±

    ¡°Yes, Alisa has never let me down.¡± Rosalind winked mischievously.

    ¡°Thanks to Mr. Lyle. I said you wanted it, so he followed your wishes.¡±

    ¡°Lyle?¡±

    ¡°Um, who do you think I can contact?¡± Alisa asked and turned the steering wheel.

    As soon as the car arrived at the intersection, the traffic light turned red. Her car was parked parallel to Dn¡¯s car but no one noticed.

 Chapter 20

    Dn impatiently looked up at the traffic light and counted the numbers.

    Today, Lyle was busy attending the fashion show, so he had to meet with Miss Lisa of the Roberts family on behalf of Lyle to negotiate the uing jewelry design and manufacturing order.

    The Roberts family is also a major partner of the Global group, otherwise, he would have asked Paul to meet Lisa on his behalf.

    By the time Dn arrived at Nancy¡¯s house, the clock struck eight o¡¯clock in the evening.

    Inside, she stopped waiting and limped down to the kitchen. She had just taken out a package of instant noodles and was about to cook a temporary meal when she saw him barge in.

    ¡°I¡¯m sorry, you¡¯re hungry, right?¡± Dn asked in a gasp.

    ¡°I thought you weren¡¯ting.¡± Nancy opened her eyes wide.

    ¡°I have an urgent matter. I can¡¯t call you.¡± He said as he quickly put food on the table.

    ¡°Really? Maybe my phone ran out of battery, I was so busy writing the script that I didn¡¯t notice.¡±Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Looking up at the man in front of her, she felt like she and he had been close since a previous life.

    This afternoon, he called to tell her to wait for him to buy food, but she waited for a long time without seeing him. She thought he had forgotten.

    For many Christmas seasons, she was alone, but today suddenly there was another person in the house, making her heart warm.

    She missed Nathan again. Maybe she never forgot him, but at times like this, she missed him so much.

    The winter night meal passed quietly. While Dn was washing the dishes, Nancy stood next to him, smiling slightly, but unfortunately, he turned to see her.

    ¡°What¡¯s up? Are youughing at me?¡± Dn frowned.

    ¡°All male employees of Global Group seem to be good at doing housework.¡± Nancy replied calmly.

    ¡°Is there anyone besides me?¡± He asked slowly.

    ¡°Oh, no.¡± She quickly turned away and hobbled to the living room.

    Dn knew Nancy was talking about Stephen. He quickly washed the dishes, ced them on the shelf, and followed her.

    On TV, the fashion show was being broadcast live, and the lens filmed close-ups of the jewelry designs.

    Sometimes the screen also showed Lyle and Mina sitting in the front row, in addition to Wynn.

    Nancy didn¡¯t expect that she just randomly said an idea, but Lyle could turn it into a real product. Seeing Dn also watching attentively, she blurted out.

    ¡°Aren¡¯t you going out?¡±

    ¡°Go out?¡±

    ¡°Yes, going out to celebrate Christmas. Today the street is very crowded.¡±

    ¡°Do you want to go?¡±

    Nancy wanted to chase him away so he could return to his mother, but she didn¡¯t know if he identally or intentionally didn¡¯t understand what she meant.

    While she was bewildered, Dn ran up to her room to get a coat, ran down and gently put it on for her, then carried her to the car.

    The car drove through a few roads and stopped in front of an amusement park.

    The space here is filled with the magical shimmer of thousands of sparkling stars, and the rows of dry, leafless trees are covered with poetic and romantic white snow.

    Dn carried Nancy around in front of the admiring eyes of many people. She was embarrassed and didn¡¯t dare look at anyone and felt regretful for not refusing his offer from the beginning.

    It was gettingte and the crowd had thinned out. Dn carried Nancy out of the amusement park and took her home.

    When the car arrived, she quickly told him to leave because her leg was better. She had to take the opportunity to speak before he suggested staying.

    Looking at her urgent look, he felt a bit funny. After carrying her into the house, he quickly went back to the car and returned a momentter, carrying an apple.

    ¡°Merry Christmas.¡±

    Dn took Nancy¡¯s hand, put the apple in, and walked away very quickly. He bought that apple with twenty-four coins, believing that he would receive true love from the person he liked.

    As soon as he touched the steering wheel, the light on the window went out, the clock struck midnight, and the church bell rang, signaling the transition between the old year and the new year.

    This time Wynn¡¯s MV was directed by Kent. Kent has been traveling with the film crew for a month now, so he looks a bit thinner.

    Paul didn¡¯t understand how Kent was devoted to art, but during a week of borrowing E¡¯s hotel, Paul was constantly criticized by her because the film crew kept breaking sses, tiles, tables¡­

    When Paul was scolded, he turned to Kent and med himself, saying that it was because he ate at home and took care of the world that he was so miserable.

    Kent heard himin and said that this is a family matter, not a world matter because it alles down to one thing, the Global corporation.

    Paul couldn¡¯t say as much as Kent so he had to stay silent. However, Paul liked the way Kent devoted himself to his work, taking care of every millimeter of film.

    There was little snowfall in the afternoon, so Kent took the opportunity to film outdoor scenes first.

    Nancy heard that Rosalind would be paired with Wynn, so she intentionally went to the filming location to find an opportunity to inquire about Nathan. Mina also came to support Wynn.

    Two girls stood next to each other, chatting and smiling.

    In the image of a rich boy, Wynn is much more handsome. He already looks rich, but if he refines his appearance more, he¡¯ll be super rich.

    The opening scene is a scene of two people holding hands walking on a white snowy road, an extremely romantic frame.

    Wynn¡¯s fate is miserable. If he hates something, God will immediately give it to him.

    He¡¯s not famous yet so he has no say in choosing his co-stars. He didn¡¯t understand why his beloved brother brought his ssmate to be paired with him.

 Chapter 21

    At first, Nancy was quite worried because Wynn¡¯s attitude the day he met Rosalind confused her, and she didn¡¯t know if he could keep pace with his co-star¡¯s feelings or not.

    But now everything seems to be quite okay. That means on-screen and reality arepletely unrted.

    But when it came to the scene where the two main characters kiss, Wynn said he didn¡¯t have the emotions to act and asked Nancy to change the script, forcing Kent to skip this expensive scene.

    Of course, no one agrees with him.

    ¡°You don¡¯t need to kiss, just pretend.¡± Nancy begged.

    ¡°That¡¯s right, I¡¯ll choose the right camera angle, you act with your eyes a lot and that¡¯s fine.¡± Kent also spoke up.

    ¡°How to pretend? I don¡¯t know, you wrote the script,e and teach me.¡± Wynn huffed.

    Rosalind looked at Wynn¡¯s appearance and became angry. He should have been grateful to her, but he showed an unpleasant attitude for the whole film crew to watch a good drama. But because she thought of Dn, she tried to hold back her anger.

    ¡°Nancy, please guide him in acting.¡± Kent urged.

    ¡°I only know how to write, I don¡¯t know how to act.¡±

    ¡°Please Nancy, he is Lyle¡¯s younger brother, please follow his wishes a bit, I don¡¯t want to cut this scene.¡± Kent begged.

    Nancy nced at the stubborn male protagonist. It turns out he¡¯s Lyle¡¯s younger brother, that¡¯s why he¡¯s so arrogant.

    No wonder Kent had to hand over the film crew to the deputy director and then quickly return here to film for him.

    Before she knew what to do, Kent pulled her in front of Wynn, threw her there, and eagerly returned to his seat.

    Nancy bit her lip, ring at Wynn. If she knew in advance that this guy would make things difficult for her, she would have stayed at thepany and note here to do anything.

    At first, he read the script but had no objections.

    ¡°Hey, if you don¡¯t want it, why didn¡¯t you say it when you read the script?¡± Nancy spoke up angrily.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    ¡°How do I know Lyle will let me act with the goddess?¡± Wynn answered leisurely.

    ¡°I¡¯m not an actor, how can I guide you to act? Tell Kent to guide you.¡±

    Mina stood outside watching the two of them arguing and couldn¡¯t help but hold her stomach andugh hysterically.

    Seeing Minae to cheer, Wynn was very happy, but because of that, he became even more hesitant to film such sensitive scenes.

    Furthermore, Wynn also had the same thought as Mina, that his brother noticed this editor so he sought revenge on his brother.

    ¡°Let¡¯s start.¡±

    After finishing speaking, Wynn leaned closer to Nancy¡¯s face. She could smell his breath carrying the scent of mint.

    The scene was extremely romantic when suddenly a hand fragrant with expensive perfume reached out, blocking the middle, and separating the faces of the reluctant lovers.

    ¡°Mr. Stephen, are you back?¡±

    ¡°Yes, Nancy, am I here on time?¡± Stephen winked at her.

    ¡°Mr. Stephen, we are filming.¡± Wynn interjected.

    ¡°Your co-star is Rosalind, not Nancy.¡±

    ¡°It was Lyle ying tricks on me, I don¡¯t want to act with a star.¡±

    ¡°Distortion is better than nothing, why are you upset?¡±

    After speaking, Stephen grabbed Nancy¡¯s hand and pulled her away from the camera lens.

    His initial schedule was to go on a business trip for just a week, but Dn suddenly told him to fly from country Y to country A to continue negotiating another contract, so itsted two weeks.

    At the same time, Rosalind also recognized the person taking her photo so she immediately approached to say hello.

    ¡°Hello Mr. Stephen, that day I did not know that the person taking my photo was the deputy general director of Global Group. What a pleasure.¡±

    ¡°Mr. Lyle asked me to take a photo for you, so I did. Fortunately, you are beautiful.¡± Stephen replied humbly.

    ¡°Thank you for thepliment. I have to continue filming, goodbye.¡± Rosalind politely bowed her head and walked in front of the camera.

    Finally, instead of kissing on the lips, they changed to kissing the forehead.

    After filming, Wynn immediately ran to where Mina was sitting to drink water. Both of them had the same expression when they saw Stephen and Nancy talking andughing happily.

    Wynn thinks his future sister-inw is about to be stolen by Stephen, and Mina is worried because she sees her boss has another rival.

    Next, the film crew moved to filming interior scenes.

    When Rosalind arrived at the bathroom, Nancy quickly followed, but when she got to the women¡¯s bathroom, she lost track of her.

    ¡°Nancy, you follow me, what¡¯s going on?¡± Rosalind suddenly appeared behind and spoke.

    ¡°Miss Rosalind, do you know where Nathan is?¡±

    Hearing Nancy¡¯s question, Rosalind smiled brightly. It turned out she guessed right, this girl still didn¡¯t recognize him.

    Sighing softly, Rosalind softly spoke.

    ¡°Nathan has settled in country A and is also married.¡±

    ¡°Married?¡± Nancy asked again in shock.

    ¡°Yes, when you left, he would rather let the Southernpany go bankrupt than be with me. Ultimately he married another woman. Men are really easy to change.¡±

    The sound of Rosalind¡¯s high heels rang out and then faded away. Nancy stood still in one ce for a long time before slowly leaving the building, her lonely footsteps wandering on the vast street.

    The afternoon wind blew her tangled hair, and sad snow covered the walkway.

    She imagined the winter scene in that strangend, he was happy with his wife and children.

    She was just sad but didn¡¯t dare me him. She looked up at the distant sky, her fragile hands catching each white snowke. So she really lost him.

    The waves of life have pushed him and her to two strange ces. She told herself that she would only be sad for one day today, tomorrow she would live happily and sincerely wish him happiness.

 Chapter 22

    The cold night gradually fell, the street lights were scattered, and the wind was rustling, cold to her core.

    The sound of passersby whispering rang in Nancy¡¯s ears and she thought Nathan was talking andughing with her.

    Memories of the past kepting back to her, making her feel sad, tears falling from her eyes.

    After many years, this was the first time she couldn¡¯t control herself and burst into tears. She felt like she was jealous of that woman.

    From a distance, Stephen looked at Nancy through the car window. He waited all afternoon but didn¡¯t see her return, so he went looking for her and followed her all the way here, watching her wandering on the street like a soulless person.

    Now suddenly she cried like rain, making him unable to bear it, he drove over and quickly got out of the car.

    ¡°Deputy general director.¡±

    As soon as Nancy finished speaking, Stephen wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly. She felt sorry for herself and cried even harder.

    A few couples passed by, saw them and immediately pointed at them and whispered.

    Stephen didn¡¯t know what made her cry, but he felt his heart sobbing along with her sobs.

    He patiently waited for her to calm down before driving her home.

    ¡°Mr. Stephen, thank you for today and the previous day.¡± She got out of the car and spoke in a low voice.

    ¡°Nancy, if you don¡¯t mind, consider me your friend.¡±

    Nancy looked at Stephen, nodded slightly, and signaled for him to go home.

    Waiting for the car topletely disappear, she turned to face the gate. Just as she fumbled to put the key into the lock, a hand reached out and grabbed her hand tightly.

    ¡°Mr. Dn, in the future, don¡¯te here again.¡± Nancy spoke tiredly.

    ¡°Why?¡±

    ¡°I like being alone, except when I have to go out to work, I just want to be alone. Thank you for being with me recently.¡±

    ¡°What is your rtionship with Stephen?¡±

    Hearing Dn¡¯s question, Nancy was extremely confused. His deep eyes were like stray stars shining straight at her.

    ¡°Are friends.¡± She replied briefly.

    ¡°Only that?¡±

    ¡°Right. I have to go inside the house, goodbye.¡±

    Dn stood still, watching as Nancy¡¯s figure disappeared behind the gate and then appeared in the first-floor window.

    Through the gap in the curtain, she raised her eyes to look down and when she saw him still standing there, she reached out and pulled the curtain closed.

    She does not want to have any rtionship above the level of friendship with the upper ss.

    Even though Dn said he was an assistant, she saw that his body was covered in branded goods, including Rolex watches, and diamond rings, and even the shirts he wore were from famous brands.

    She didn¡¯t want to cling to the crane¡¯s leg and then fall again.

    Nancy is smart enough to realize that there is a reason for the care and kindness that Dn gives her, so she wants to quickly extinguish the newly ignited fire of love in the man¡¯s heart.

    Dn waited until the lights went out before getting into the car. His bones ached again.

    His hand quickly reached for the bottle of painkillers. The doctor warned him not to let himself get too cold.

    Raising his hand to gently caress the image of the schoolgirl with her hair braided on both sides, always kept in his wallet, his heart was filled with nostalgia. Even when he was next to her, he still missed her very much.

    ¡°Nancy, for me to live well, I will make youe back to me at all costs.¡± He trembled and spoke.

    The night ends, morninges again, and a new day begins. The phone rings continuously.

    Not only the editorial department, but other departments are also busy because the end of the year is a sprint time.

    Seeing the phone on the desk vibrating slightly, Nancy quickly picked it up.

    ¡°Mr. Lyle.¡±

    ¡°Come to my office for a moment.¡±

    ¡°Yes.¡±

    After the response, Nancy quickly ran out of the editing room and headed towards the elevator.

    As soon as she pressed the open button, she encountered Wynn. She bowed slightly and walked in.

    ¡°Eighth floor?¡± He asked.

    ¡°Right.¡± She answered.

    When they arrived at the deputy general director¡¯s office, both of them entered at the same time.

    Wynn came and sat on the sofa, reached out, and poured a cup of hot tea, taking a sip.

    ¡°Please write a script based on these two short stories.¡± Lyle said as he handed the document to Nancy.

    ¡°The movie premieres on New Year¡¯s, right?¡± She asked softly.

    ¡°Right. I thought about it again and again and still thought I should give it to you.¡±

    ¡°You can rest assured. I¡¯ll try.¡±

    Nancy happily epted the mission and said goodbye to both Lyle and Wynn and left the room.

    Waiting for her to leave, Lyle came and sat opposite Wynn. Looking at his younger brother¡¯s half-angry, half-frustrated face, he just smiled slightly and asked softly.

    ¡°What do you need?¡±

    ¡°Big brother, you want me to be angry to death, right? There are so many people but you don¡¯t choose, why does it have to be that person?¡± Wynn was angry.

    ¡°This is a job, you should distinguish between public and private.¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t understand, after all the things she did, can you still be normal? Mr. Dn¡­¡±

    ¡°You promised not to mention this again.¡± Lyle said seriously.

    ¡°Just this once, tell her to stay away from me.¡± Wynn said angrily and ran out.

    Since joining Global Corporation, Wynn has always stayed at the dormitory for interns because Lyle wouldn¡¯t let him go home and confiscated the key.

    He had to rush into the office to talk to his brother because when he called and just said a few words, his brother said he was busy and hung up.

    Just returning from the deputy general director¡¯s office to the editing room, Nancy saw a bouquet of bright roses ced on her desk, apanied by a card with Stephen¡¯s name on it.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

 Chapter 23

    The other employees were all surprised up until now, some were smiling, and some were frowning.

    Nancy hugged the bouquet and ced it on the floor. She only went to Lyle¡¯s office for a little while, but when she came back, she saw this.

    She heard Donna say that Stephen personally brought the flowers here. It seems that if she avoids this pine tree, she will encounter another pine tree.

    Lunchtime came, and the previous scene continued. Stephen walked down to the canteen to wait.

    Although Nancy deliberately pretended not to see him, took her meal, and went to the corner to sit, he still tried toe next to her.

    ¡°Why are you bringing flowers to my office?¡± Nancy asked angrily.

    ¡°Haven¡¯t you already agreed to be my friend? I give flowers to congratte us.¡±

    Nancy sighed in frustration, running out of words to say to Stephen. No one gives flowers to celebrate making friends. Furthermore, it was a bouquet of roses.

    ¡°But giving flowers is not enough, let¡¯s go out to eat after work.¡± He continued to speak.

    ¡°Deputy general director, don¡¯t be so exaggerated.¡± She wrinkled her forehead and frowned.

    ¡°If you refuse, I will bring flowers to you tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow too.¡±Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    ¡°Are you terrorizing me?¡±

    ¡°Just consider it that way. How do you decide?¡±

    ¡°Okay, okay, I will obey you.¡±

    After sessfully forcing Nancy to ept the invitation, Stephenughed happily. He felt that thepany¡¯s lunch was delicious and he decided not to go out for lunch from now on.

    At this moment, from the eighth-floor office, Dn¡¯s eyes were focused on the man and woman eating together on theputer screen, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his hands were clenched as if he wanted to break the pen.

    Could it be that this girl has feelings for Stephen that¡¯s why she chased him away?

    Thanks to observing her through the camera every day like this, the day the power went out, he knew that she was still in the editing room.

    There were two knocks outside and Paul appeared. He had just bought lunch so he brought it up here. Seeing the boss frowning, he quickly put it down and ran away.

    Before Dn could see Paul¡¯s face, Paul disappeared behind the door.

    Dn was about to stand up when his phone screen lit up. He didn¡¯t see who was calling but still reached out to pick up the phone.

    ¡°Dn.¡± Rosalind¡¯s voice rang out gently on the other end of the phone.

    ¡°What¡¯s up?¡±

    ¡°Let¡¯s meet tonight and have dinner together, okay?¡±

    ¡°I have something to do¡­¡±

    ¡°Nancy, she is working at Global Group, do you know?¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡±

    ¡°Should I tell her about you or not?¡±

    ¡°Rosalind, don¡¯t forget that you promised me.¡±

    ¡°I just want to have a meal with you, is it that difficult?¡±

    ¡°Come and text me the address.¡±

    As soon as the sentence ended, Dn hung up the phone, his hand squeezing tightly as if he wanted to crush the phone.

    Invisible fear crept into his heart that had suffered so much damage.

    He was afraid of losing Nancy again, afraid that if she knew he was Nathan, she would leave again, and even the slightest chance for him to win her heart would be gone.

    Now only Nancy¡¯s love can ease the pain in his heart. He could not force her heart to love him, nor could he force his heart to stop loving her.

    Dn took the stack of documents and continued to sign, but after he finished signing, he saw that it was all Nancy¡¯s name, so he took out his phone and called Paul.

    ¡°Yes, I¡¯m listening.¡± The assistant¡¯s voice was choked because his mouth was full of rice.

    ¡°After lunchter, tell the staff to reprint all the documents from this morning and bring them in for me.¡±

    Nancy had to admit that Stephen was very outstanding. Although he is not a famous person, with such a bright appearance, he attracts attention wherever he goes. She felt like she was also glowing when walking next to him.

    Because Stephen did such ostentatious things, everyone in thepany now thought they were dating, so when it was time to get off work, Nancy didn¡¯t hesitate to sit in his car.

    She wanted the rumors to reach the eighth floor so Dn could retreat. After all, Stephen had said from the beginning that he wanted to be friends with her, so it would be easier to behave.

    The magnificent city is also very small, or maybe it¡¯s because this restaurant is so delicious that everyone wants toe.

    After paying, Stephen went to the parking lot to get the car, and Nancy stood at the gate and waited.

    She was looking around when she saw Rosalind and Dn entering at the same time.

    ¡°Editor Nancy, what a coincidence, are you also having dinner here?¡± Rosalind spoke up.

    ¡°Yes, I¡¯m going with Stephen.¡±

    ¡°It seems like you two are very close.¡± Rosalind said while paying attention to Dn¡¯s face.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go inside.¡±

    Dn said and walked away very quickly, his face showing no emotion. Rosalind also hurriedly followed.

    Nancy looked back at their backs, and smiled slightly, she guessed they were a couple.

    Although Dn is only an assistant, he seems to be from a rich family. It seems that Rosalind has been able to forget Nathan and ept new feelings.

    Nancy thinks she¡¯s thinking too much, so she¡¯s afraid Dn has feelings for her.

    As soon as Stephen¡¯s car left the restaurant gate, the dishes that Rosalind had pre-ordered also appeared on the table.

    The space fell into silence. She saw that Dn was only focusing on eating, so she hesitantly spoke.

    ¡°Nancy¡­¡±

    ¡°Don¡¯t remind her in front of me, I¡¯m eating.¡± Dn did not raise his head and interrupted.

    ¡°The more you act like this, the more it proves that you care for her.¡±

    ¡°Rosalind, can you forgive someone who once brought you to the edge of life and death? Can you still love that person?¡±

    ¡°I can¡¯t¡­¡±

    ¡°Me too, but she is doing a good job at Global Group and bringing profits to the group. I¡¯m a business person, I keep what¡¯s profitable.¡±

    ¡°Then why did you say the other day you didn¡¯t know her?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m Dn. Dn doesn¡¯t know the girl named Nancy.¡±

    Hearing Dn¡¯s excuse, Rosalind stopped asking. She also hoped that what he said today was true.

    If over the years, he dated a few other girls or agreed to be with her, maybe she would believe him.

    She hoped Nancy would fall in love with Stephen. As long as Nancy loves Stephen, Dn will have no more expectations.

 Chapter 24

    After leaving the restaurant, Stephen drove for a long time and stopped in front of a children¡¯s amusement park.

    He pulled Nancy inside, not forgetting to take the camera with him, and kept talking.

    ¡°Nancy, let¡¯se in here and y for a bit and then go home. Forget about unhappy things, don¡¯t let yourself be sad for too long.¡±

    ¡°Okay.¡± She replied softly.

    Although this is a park for children, adultse inrge numbers, and couples also use this as a date spot. The space is filled with shimmering, magical electric light.

    Stephen held Nancy¡¯s hand and crept into the bustling crowd.

    ¡°Nancy, let¡¯s y the merry-go-round.¡± Stephen spoke up.

    ¡°That¡¯s for children to y with.¡± Nancy said shyly.

    ¡°You don¡¯t look any different than a child, please climb up.¡± As he spoke, he pushed her closer to the merry-go-round.

    Fortunately, there were a few more couples also ying the merry-go-round, so Nancy didn¡¯t feel too embarrassed.

    After finishing the round, she noticed that outside, Stephen was holding a camera towards her.

    Leaving the merry-go-round, Stephen took Nancy to other game booths and showed off his talent for picking up animals.

    The stuffed animal hung loosely on the crane, falling every time it got close. The more enthusiastic Nancy cheered, the more Stephen couldn¡¯t concentrate, causing the stuffed animal to keep falling back and forth.

    The children impatiently waited for him to finish ying so they could y. Their parents were equally impatient.

    Nancy saw this and immediately urged Stephen to leave. In the end, he couldn¡¯t get any, so he went to the stuffed animal stall and bought a huge teddy bear to give to her.

    As soon as the car arrived at the gate, Stephen quickly got out and opened the back door, then held out the teddy bear. Nancy took it, smiling brightly.

    ¡°Thank you, deputy general director, I was very happy today.¡±

    ¡°Keep up the good work. By this day, what happened yesterday will be in the past. I don¡¯t want to see you cry anymore.¡± He winked and said softly.

    ¡°Just that once.¡± She shyly bowed her head.

    ¡°In the future, call me by name, don¡¯t call me deputy general director anymore, we are friends.¡± His face frowned slightly.

    ¡°I know, thank you, Stephen.¡± She nodded slightly and agreed.

    ¡°That¡¯s right. Go inside the house, good night.¡±

    Stephen smiled with satisfaction and returned to the driver¡¯s seat, pressing the elerator.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    Waiting for the car topletely disappear, Nancy raised her hand to look for the key, but she suddenly saw that the gate was unlocked and only ajar.

    She sighed, thinking that she was less than thirty years old but was absent-minded and forgot to lock the door when she went to work.

    She is afraid that one day a thief will break into her house and clean it so much that there won¡¯t even be a rice cooker left.

    Nancy had just put the teddy bear on the steps and turned to lock the gate when suddenly she was pulled back by an arm. The movement was so fast that she had no time to react.

    The figure of a tall man suddenly stood in front of her, holding her tightly with both hands, pressing her against the wall.

    Before Nancy had time to regain consciousness, the man¡¯s face was close, his breath carrying the scent of Pinot Noir red wine blowing on her face, making her stutter.

    ¡°You¡­ Mr. Dn, what are you doing? Why did youe to my house?¡±

    ¡°Are you going on a date with Stephen?¡± Dn frowned and asked.

    ¡°Right.¡± Nancy blurted out in response. She saw the red blood streaks in his eyes.

    ¡°Where am I not as good as him?¡±

    ¡°He is the deputy general director. Why don¡¯t you look back at yourself? You¡¯re just an assistant.¡±

    ¡°Do you choose a man for yourself based on family background and status?¡±

    ¡°Yes.¡±

    ¡°Okay. I will be a good candidate, so don¡¯t rush into making a decision.¡±

    Dn slowly let go of Nancy¡¯s hand, smiled faintly, turned around, walked straight out the gate, got into the car, and drove away.

    The car had left a long time ago but Nancy still hadn¡¯t regained herposure, her whole body was leaning against the wall, her heart was now jumping non-stop, and her breathing was gradually bingbored.

    She doesn¡¯t want to be a third party, insert herself into Rosalind¡¯s rtionship, and then bring trouble to herself. Now she just wants each day to pass peacefully.

    Although at first, Nancy had temporary feelings towards him because she saw that he had some familiar features like Nathan, she knew that it was not love.

    After bringing the teddy bear inside and cing it on the bed, Nancy sighed again.

    Suddenly she felt very worried about her fate. She secretly thought that if she kept following Stephen, she would be safe, after all, he was the deputy general manager.

    Even though Dn is rich, he must respect Stephen and stay away from his superior¡¯s girlfriend.

    Nancy reassured herself like that and then quickly ran to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and got mineral water to drink to calm down.

    Seeing that the apple on Christmas Eve was still intact, she reached out to take it out, thought for a moment, and then threw it in the trash.

    Early in the morning, as soon as Nancy set foot in the office, what caught her eye was a huge bouquet of roses. It seems that Stephen did not keep his word and brought flowers here again.

    She turned to the petite girl who was attentively typing on the keyboard, smiled slightly, and asked.

    ¡°Donna, did you see who gave me flowers?¡±

    ¡°He is a very handsome guy. He is equally handsome as Stephen. Nancy, I admire you so much.¡±

    Hearing Donna speak, Nancy¡¯s eyes immediately narrowed, and a feeling of insecurity crept throughout her body.

    She reached for the card and opened it, seeing Dn¡¯s name written inside.

 Chapter 25

    ¡°Donna, do you know Dn?¡± Nancy asked the girl again.

    ¡°Are you asking President Dn?¡±

    ¡°No, he¡¯s an assistant. I also don¡¯t know whose assistant he is.¡±

    ¡°I¡¯ve never heard this assistant¡¯s name before. You go to the eighth floor and ask everyone.¡±

    Because Nancy was suggested by her colleague, she immediately grabbed the bouquet and went straight to the eighth floor.

    She did not want to get involved with Dn like this. She secretly thought that she would have to strongly refuse for him to give up.

    When the elevator door to the eighth floor opened, Nancy came face to face with Paul.

    When Paul saw the bouquet, he knew something was wrong because early in the morning, Dn told him to buy him a beautiful bouquet of roses, and now it is in the girl¡¯s hand.

    ¡°Mr. Paul, I¡¯m so lucky to meet you again. Do you know where assistant Dn works?¡±

    ¡°Assistant?¡± Paul¡¯s face turned pale. He thought his boss would reveal his identity before pursuing this girl.

    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s the person who was with you the other day.¡±

    ¡°Oh, go straight, to the left,st room, he¡¯s in there.¡±

    ¡°Yes, thank you.¡±

    Nancy followed Paul¡¯s direction and quickly walked to the end of the hallway.

    Looking up at the sign above with the words General Manager Dn, her feet immediately stopped.

    She was hesitating when the door suddenly opened and Dn appeared. Seeing her holding a bouquet, he was a bit surprised.

    At this moment, Nancy seemed to vaguely guess something, her eyes kept looking up at the sign and then down at the man.

    She started piecing together, let¡¯s see, the president of Global Group is also the general director, and the president¡¯s name is Dn, and assistant Paul is the president¡¯s assistant.

    So who is this person standing in front of her?

    ¡°You looking for me?¡± Dn looked at her with eyes that couldn¡¯t be more gentle.

    ¡°Hello president, I¡¯m here to visit you¡­¡± Wynn suddenly appeared with a cheerful face and approached them.

    ¡°President¡­ president?¡± Nancy stammered.

    ¡°Yes, he is our president. Oh, editor Nancy is also very brave. You brought flowers to confess your love to the president, right?¡±

    As soon as Wynn finished speaking, Nancy threw the bouquet at Dn, and he reflexively took it.

    Next, she quickly turned around and ran quickly towards the elevator.

    Surprised by her actions, Dn conveniently threw the bouquet to Wynn and hurriedly chased after her.

    Wynn stood motionless, his eyes wide open like a car¡¯s headlights, not understanding what was going on.

    He was going toe here and ask Dn to tell Lyle to let him go home a little early because he was about to make his public debut anyway. But what scene did he just witness?

    His future sister-inw boldly went to confess her love to the president, then ran away when he discovered her. As for why Dn chased her, he didn¡¯t understand.

    Nancy quickly reached out and pressed the button for the elevator, which was going up from the second floor.

    When she turned her head to look, she saw Dn approaching her. She panicked and didn¡¯t know what to do so she took off her high heels and ran barefoot towards the stairs.

    ¡°Stop and listen to my exnation first.¡±

    The more he called, the faster she ran. By the time she reached the sixth floor, she couldn¡¯t run anymore and was breathing out through her ears.

    Fortunately, the elevator door was just ajar, so she quickly slipped in. The staff standing there looked at her with surprised eyes.

    When she got back to her seat, her arms and legs kept shaking, and her eyes looked nkly toward the door.

    Everyone in the room opened their eyes wide when they saw her panicked appearance.

    When she was sure Dn wouldn¡¯t chase her, she felt secure and started typing.

    ¡°Nancy¡­¡±

    ¡°Yes.¡± She was startled and shouted, jumping up when she heard the voice calling her.

    All eyes continued to focus on Nancy. Lyle also stood still, as surprised as they were.

    ¡°Deputy general director, are you looking for me for something?¡±

    ¡°Why is your face so pale? Are you unwell?¡±

    ¡°No, because I was so focused that I was startled when I heard you call. What¡¯s the matter?¡±

    ¡°Thepany¡¯s year-end summary program is for you and editor Donna to be in charge of. If you do well, you can participate in next year¡¯s multi-disciplinary exhibition event.¡± Lyle said while looking at Donna.

    ¡°Yes sir, we will try.¡± Nancy and Donna responded simultaneously.

    Lyle nodded and went back to the eighth floor. As soon as he entered the office, he saw Wynn holding a huge bouquet and sitting on the sofa.

    ¡°Why are you looking for me?¡± Lyle leisurely sat in the swivel chair and asked.

    ¡°Give me the key. Mr. Dn has allowed me to go home.¡±

    ¡°Just a few more days until your debut. Are you anxious to go home?¡±

    ¡°Of course, I miss my nest very much. Please give it to me quickly.¡±

    Lyle reached out and pulled out the desk drawer, took the keys, and threw them to Wynn.

    He quickly caught it, stood up, approached, and ced the bouquet in front of his brother.

    ¡°This bouquet is for you.¡±Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    After a yful wink, Wynn quickly walked out. Just now, after asking Dn for help, he conveniently asked about the bouquet, so Dn told him to take it away.

    Looking at his cousin¡¯s frowning face, he immediately obeyed, took the bouquet, and left.

    Wynn thought that if his future sister-inw gave a bouquet to Dn but Dn refused, he would give it to his brother so that his brother would not feel sorry for himself.

    Wynn also told himself not to say anything, letting Lyle find out for himself. He wanted to punish Lyle for the crime of love but refused to say anything.

    Wynn guessed that when Lyle discovered he had lost his lover, he would cry loudly.

    Wynn went straight to Mina¡¯s office, quietly watching her through the ss door.

    Her beauty while working seriously made him fascinated.

    He told himself that when he seeds, he will boldly express his feelings to her because if he continues like this, he will have difficulty breathing. He was afraid that he would be like his brother and lose his lover.

 Chapter 26

    Time gradually turned to afternoon and then it was time to get off work. Nancy took the bus to the supermarket, then went in to buy some food and a lock before going home.

    While cooking, the image of Dn kept appearing in her mind, but she thought maybe two weeks ago he often visited her house so she unconsciously formed a habit.

    After finishing eating, Nancy went to her room and continued to research Global Group¡¯s documents as a basis for organizing year-end events.

    Although she heard rumors that the corporation had been operating for a long time and had changed its name, the documents did not clearly state whatpany it was formerly.

    ording to records, Global Group was established only five years ago.

    Nancy admires Dn greatly. He must be very good to have made the corporation grow so rapidly in just five years. But because he was so perfect, it made her want to stay away from him even more.

    Nancy was so engrossed in her work that when she closed theputer, the clock struck ten o¡¯clock at night. She gently pushed the door open and walked out to the balcony.

    The snow stopped falling today. The night wind blew her loose hair across her bare shoulders.

    Nancy looked out into the vast space, where the buildings were still glowing with electric light. From a distance, they sparkled like a tower of stars, making her feel a little sad.

    She did not know that in front of the gate there was a person smiling and looking at her.

    It wasn¡¯t until she was about to go back inside that she suddenly looked down.

    When she saw Dn¡¯s eyes directed towards her, she immediately felt a chill run down her spine so she quickly jumped inside, closed the door, and pulled the curtain, leaving that lonely man alone.

    The night was quiet, the rose bushes on the balcony had long since withered. Dn heard his heart painfully calling Nancy¡¯s name.

    Her image on the balcony just now lingered in his mind. Although it was very difficult, he tried to convince himself not to drink anymore because the girl he loved did not like him drinking too much alcohol.

    In the morning in the living room of Daniel¡¯s house, Emery held a steaming cup of coffee and took a sip, eyes glued to the newspaper.

    When he heard his son¡¯s footsteps, he immediately called out but did not look up.

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong, dad?¡± Daniel asked with wide eyes.

    ¡°How¡¯s your work going?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m filming a movie and taking advertising photos for some big brands.¡±

    ¡°Finish everything and then go back, don¡¯t continue working in the entertainment industry anymore. Dad wants to rest. Don¡¯t forget our agreement, one is that you return, and two is that all this inheritance will be used for charity.¡±

    ¡°Yes, I know, Dad, I¡¯m leaving.¡± Daniel bowed his head and replied softly.

    Today, Daniel had no filming schedule, so he drove straight to where Rosalind was filming amercial and stood watching her from afar.

    He loved Rosalind from the first time they met because she was so beautiful.

    This time, the most famous cosmetics brand in the country invited Rosalind to be their brand ambassador because her face with wless white skin fits their requirements very well.

    Her top beauty makes her stand out in every frame.

    Rosalind acted for a while then realized Daniel was looking at her. Even though she didn¡¯t want to, she nodded slightly to greet him.

    At noon, the whole crew ate together, while Rosalind followed Daniel out to eat. He came here and made an invitation so she couldn¡¯t refuse.

    As soon as they entered the restaurant door, both of them coincidentally met Lyle who also walked in.

    Rosalind and Daniel both wore masks and hats, so no one recognized them. If Rosalind hadn¡¯t taken the initiative to say hello, even Lyle wouldn¡¯t have recognized her.

    ¡°Lyle, are you having lunch here?¡± Rosalind asked softly.

    ¡°Yes, I have meals with customers.¡± Lyle replied, his eyes looking over at Daniel.

    ¡°Hello, Deputy General Director.¡± Daniel immediately spoke up when he saw Lyle looking at him.

    ¡°Hello, young master.¡±

    Just as Lyle finished speaking, the customer group of Global Group also arrived. He politely said goodbye to Rosalind and Daniel and quickly left with them.

    Rosalind and Daniel also quickly followed the waiter to check into the dining room.

    Daniel noticed that Rosalind¡¯s appearance was not good, a worried look was visible on her delicate face.

    Throughout the meal, she kept feeling restless. Right when Daniel went to wash his hands, she quickly took out her phone and texted Lyle. When Daniel returned, she used the excuse of having to go to the bathroom to leave.

    ¡°What do you need to tell me?¡± Lyle approached Rosalind and asked.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    ¡°Ah, Lyle, don¡¯t tell Dn about me going out to eat with Daniel today.¡± Rosalind opened her eyes wide and looked at the person opposite, pleading.

    ¡°Going out to eat together is very normal. I¡¯m not a gossipy person.¡±

    ¡°That¡¯s not what I meant.¡±

    ¡°Okay, I have to go. Wish you a good appetite.¡±

    After saying that, Lyle walked back to the dining room. There was an ufortable atmosphere surrounding the ce he passed and the ce where Rosalind set foot. And even in the employee cafeteria of Global Group.

    At first, Nancy was having a delicious meal with Stephen when Dn suddenly appeared, and Paul was also standing next to him.

    Everyone knew that Paul was the president¡¯s assistant, so when they looked at Dn, they were suspicious and gossiped, making Nancy feel like she was about to suffocate.

    ¡°Dn, are you in economy mode?¡± Stephen asked in surprise.

    ¡°I think in the future I shoulde here often and have meals with the staff to strengthen the rtionship between colleagues. I learn from you.¡± Dn said while looking at Nancy.

    Paul and Nancy let their bosses talk and just focused on eating.

 Chapter 27

    Stephen turned to Nancy and saw her swallowing food continuously. He was so scared that his eyes widened.

    Before he could say anything, her rice waspletely gone.

    ¡°I¡¯m leaving first.¡± She stood up, bowed, and walked quickly.

    ¡°Nancy, today you continue to swallow rice without chewing, huh?¡± Stephen asked.

    ¡°Suddenly I felt so full.¡±

    Dn spoke angrily, his face darkened, leaving his meal untouched and standing up to leave the table.

    Stephen reached out to hold Paul back, forcing him to finish his boss¡¯s food to avoid waste.

    Paul¡¯s face couldn¡¯t be any more distorted, he still needed this model body so he could find a girlfriend.

    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, you won¡¯t get fat after eating a lot at once.¡± Stephen patted his shoulder tofort him.

    Stephen was supposed to go to lunch with a group of customers earlier, but he used the excuse of a stomach ache to escape, leaving Lyle to take care of everything.

    That group of customers, led by Steven, visited Global Group before signing a contract to build an apartmentplex in country Y, a project in which Global Group contributed forty percent of the investment capital.

    Although Stephen works very responsibly, he does not care about dividends.

    He told Dn to just report directly to his father because he didn¡¯t understand anything. Anyway, the shares are still in Neil¡¯s name, he just takes his monthly sry to spend to avoid headaches.

    Returning to the editing room, Nancy took the opportunity to spread a small mat on the floor to rest a bit.

    As soon as she took off her high heels and was about to lie down, Dn grabbed her hand and pulled her away. She didn¡¯t have time to react and just ran after him.

    ¡°President, what are you doing? It¡¯s lunch break.¡±

    Dn didn¡¯t say a word and threw her into the elevator. The number continuously jumped to the eighth floor.

    As soon as the elevator door opened, he pulled her towards his office.

    Nancy was so scared that her face turned pale. She looked left and right but couldn¡¯t see anyone to ask for help.

    After the sound of the door closing, her whole body fell on the sofa. As soon as she sat up, Dn approached her.

    His affectionate eyes looked at her passionately, the faint scent of masculine perfume lingering around her.

    ¡°President¡­ president.¡± Nancy stammered.

    ¡°I¡¯m just an assistant.¡± Dn whispered into her ear.

    ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m sorry, it¡¯s because I didn¡¯t know, if I offended you, please forgive me.¡± She tried to push him away with both hands.

    Dn leisurely stood up and refastened the button that had juste loose at the cuff of his shirt. Nancy also quickly sat up, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.

    ¡°Now that you know my family background, it seems like I also have a ticket to pursue you. Nancy Pelosi, from today on I¡¯m officially pursuing you, so don¡¯t be too surprised.¡± Dn smiled and solemnly dered.

    ¡°President, please let me go, I don¡¯t want to be the thirteenth zodiac animal.¡±

    ¡°What are you talking about? What is the thirteenth zodiac animal?¡±

    ¡°You¡¯re dating Rosalind, don¡¯t drag me into this with you two. Without you, my life is already troubled enough.¡±

    Hearing Nancy say that, Dn stepped forward again, lifted her chin, and gently spoke.

    ¡°Don¡¯t misunderstand, if I were to date Rosalind, would I be able toe to your house every day for the past half a month?¡±

    Nancy quickly pushed Dn¡¯s hand off her chin and stood up. At this moment, she realized that she was barefoot, so she lingered and did not dare to step out.

    Looking at her miserable appearance, Dnughed again and took out the phone to call Mina.

    ¡°Mina, please stop by the editing room to help me get Nancy¡¯s high heels.¡±

    Hearing a knock on the door outside, Nancy rolled her eyes and looked at Dn. She knew for sure that it couldn¡¯t be Mina. Even if Mina goes at the speed of light, it¡¯s not that fast.

    If other people saw her like this, even if she jumped into the river, she wouldn¡¯t be able to clear their suspicions.

    Thinking that, she quickly ran to the desk, crawled inside, and sat still.

    Dnughed softly. He felt that she was so adorable as if the little girl from years ago had returned.

    A few secondster, the door opened and Wynn jumped in, rushing straight to the sofa. Dn stood with his back against the desk, pretending to be looking at documents, and spoke nonchntly.

    ¡°What do you need?¡±

    ¡°President, can you tell Lyle to let me choose my co-star from now on?¡± Wynn opened his eyes wide and pretended to be cute.

    ¡°Why don¡¯t you go and say it yourself?¡±

    ¡°He won¡¯t listen to me. But if you tell him, he will agree.¡±

    ¡°I have to look at your performance first. Once you be famous, you will have the right to rmend anyone.¡±

    When Dn finished speaking, Wynn¡¯s face immediately became sullen, his lips curled up in anger.

    At this moment, the knock on the door rang again and Mina hurriedly walked in, carrying high heels in her hands.

    ¡°President, here are your high heels.¡±

    When Mina saw Wynn in the room, she was speechless. She wanted to help Dn keep it a secret, but she didn¡¯t expect that she would say words that even she didn¡¯t understand what she was saying.

    ¡°High heels¡­ you?¡± Wynn was stunned, opened his mouth, widened his eyes, and turned to look at Dn.

    ¡°No.¡± Dn growled, ring at him.

    ¡°I won¡¯t tell anyone. Please believe me. Just feel free to try on high heels. But it looks smaller than your foot.¡±

    ¡°Wynn.¡±

    Hearing Dn shout, Wynn immediately ran straight, almost bumping into Mina. And Mina stood motionless. It seems there is a slight misunderstanding here.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    At first, she felt sorry for Lyle for helping Dn, but now she feels more sorry for Dn.

 Chapter 28

    Inside the desk, Nancy couldn¡¯t hold back any longer, burst out giggling, and crawled out. Mina also burst outughing.

    Looking at the chairman¡¯s dark face, the two girls quickly rushed out of the room. After running for a while, they couldn¡¯t help but lean against the wall, holding their stomachs andughing.

    And then throughout the afternoon, Nancy kept remembering what happened at noon and smiled. She felt that it was unbearably funny.

    Everyone around looked at her in bewilderment.

    In Lyle¡¯s office, Mina isn¡¯t much better. When Lyle saw her handing over the documents and waiting for him to sign while secretly smiling all the time, he was extremely surprised.

    ¡°Mina, are you okay?¡± He asked worriedly.

    ¡°Yes, have you signed all the documents?¡±

    ¡°Done.¡±

    Mina took the stack of documents from Lyle¡¯s hand and quickly walked out, still smiling.

    Lyle suddenly ran into the bathroom to look in the mirror. He saw that his face was still very normal, there was nothing tough about.

    At the same time, in the president¡¯s room, Stephen pushed open the door, walked in, and immediatelyy down on the sofa.

    Just now, Dn called and told him to go with Paul to province C tomorrow toplete the project transfer procedures with the Gxypany.

    ¡°President, you¡¯re nning on turning me into a workaholic, right?¡± Stephen sighed and asked.

    ¡°Don¡¯t you like the sea? If you go to province C, you can go out freely. On Friday, you willplete the transfer agreement with the Gxypany, and you will be free to fly and jump for the next two days.¡± Dn softened his voice to seduce Stephen.

    ¡°I¡¯ve only been back for a few days.¡± Stephen continued to sigh.

    ¡°After a week, someone wille to help you, I promise.¡±

    ¡°Who?¡± Stephen jumped up, his eyes blinking.

    ¡°Then you will know. Oh, today is payday, right?¡±

    As soon as Dn finished asking, Stephen¡¯s phone rang a tone indicating that money had been added to his ount.

    On the floors below, the employees, including Nancy, also began to rush to check their sries and happily left the office.

    Nancy got off the bus and immediately stopped by the supermarket to buy food.

    She had just chosen a few things when she had the misfortune to bump into a man as soon as she turned around.

    Seeing him masked and looking like a bad guy, she became scared and quickly moved away, but he caught her and forced her to sit down.

    Just as she was about to scream, he covered her mouth with his hand, then he gently pulled down the mask.

    ¡°Daniel.¡± Nancy rolled her eyes and eximed.

    ¡°Yes, I¡¯m being chased by reporters, please help me.¡± Daniel begged in a low voice.

    ¡°Help? How can I help?¡±

    ¡°Buy things.¡±

    ¡°Huh?¡±

    Next, Daniel followed Nancy. He took all the items that were within reach and put them in the cart. In just a moment, it was full.

    There are items that Nancy doesn¡¯t know what they are used for.

    Nancy had to admit that Daniel was truly a true actor. When he first met her, he acted like they had been close friends for eight lifetimes, smiling and speaking gently, seeming to pamper and care for her.

    Two reporters followed them and took pictures continuously. One guy rubbed his eyes back and forth, then turned to the guy next to him.

    ¡°Obviously, I saw Rosalind just now, how did she turn out to be such a strange girl?¡±

    ¡°Take a quick photo. It doesn¡¯t matter who the person next to Daniel is. As long as Daniel is in the photo, it¡¯s fine.¡± The man growled.

    When it was time to pay, Daniel pulled out his bank card and gave it to the employee.

    Nancy nced over and saw that it was a ck card. She guessed that the identity behind his power card was not simply that of an actor.

    After paying, Daniel carried the things to the car, and Nancy also followed him. She agreed to help him, so she had to y her role well.

    ¡°Where is your house?¡± Daniel asked as he backed up the car.

    ¡°I live nearby, turn left at the fork ahead.¡± She answered.

    When they arrived, Daniel waited for Nancy to open the door and then brought all the things into the house for her because they were quite a lot and heavy.

    ¡°Don¡¯t you take anything?¡± Nancy spoke shyly.

    ¡°No, consider it as my reward for you, thank you very much.¡±

    ¡°Just now, the reporter took a photo of me with you. Is it okay?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯ll say you¡¯re my distant cousin. That won¡¯t be a problem.¡±

    ¡°Okay, let¡¯s consider it like I see that you are rich so I want to be rted to you.¡±

    ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡±

    ¡°Nancy Pelosi, I work in the editorial department of Global Group.¡±

    Daniel smiled, remembered what Nancy said, then bowed slightly to his benefactor and quickly left.

    All day today he hung out at the studio waiting for Rosalind to finish filming before taking her home because at noon Alisa suddenly had a headache and asked to go home first so he took the opportunity to pick up the beauty.

    He didn¡¯t expect that after driving for a while, he discovered that several reporters were chasing after them.

    Although Daniel loved Rosalind and wanted to let the whole country know about this rtionship, he did not want to affect her career, so he enthusiastically ran away from the reporters.

    Unfortunately, the streets are crowded in thete afternoon, and driving fast can easily cause idents.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    So when he saw the supermarket, he pulled over, let Rosalind get out of the car to catch a taxi, and drove straight inside to distract them because he knew they were only looking at the license te.

    Then he identally met Nancy and came up with the idea of clinging to her, deliberately letting the reporters take clear pictures of her face to quell suspicions.

 Chapter 29

    At this time, Rosalind had just arrived home, she took off her hat, took off her scarf, andy down on the bed.

    She is not worried that being caught by reporters will affect her career because if she doesn¡¯t work in the entertainment industry, she will return to take over thepany.

    She was only worried that the news would reach Dn¡¯s ears, afraid that he would think she was a promiscuous person.

    Going to the next room, she saw Alisa still sleeping. She gently pulled the nket and covered her female manager¡¯s body and then quietly returned to her room.

    Night fell, and Stephen walked down to the dark room. He still likes this manual technology.

    In a room covered with a red light, the man¡¯s face lit up with a satisfied smile as he looked at the photos of the muse sitting on the merry-go-round.

    He felt happy and warm every time he looked at the girl¡¯s face. This winter, when he met her, he felt like spring hade.

    Closing the dark room door, he returned to pack a few clothes. He nned to take a few more nature photos after going to province C and give them to Nancy.

    At exactly seven o¡¯clock in the morning, Stephen and Paul were present at the Gxypany and afterward, the signing ceremony toplete the project transfer took ce smoothly.

    ¡°Thank you, deputy general director.¡± E¡¯s face lit up with a bright smile.

    ¡°Nothing, we thought it would make a profit so we bought it.¡± Stephen happily replied.

    ¡°When will yourpany start construction?¡±

    ¡°The chairman wants to build an overpass across the mountain, so we have to ask the construction department to re-evaluate the new design. It will probably take some time.¡±

    Hearing Stephen say that E bowed slightly and sent the guests off.

    From just now until now, Paul looked at her without blinking. Her curled hair was straightened and fell to her shoulders, making her look much younger.

    During the week that Kent borrowed the hotel to film, Paul was continuously called and scolded by E.

    When the film crew left, she stopped calling him, which made him feel a bit disappointed and sad.

    Leaving thepany, Stephen chose to stay at a hotel close to the beach.

    He took out the camera, fiddled with it, calibrated it thoroughly, and then walked out to the balcony, pointing the lens at the sea surface at noon, sparkling with silver light.

    Stephen had finished work, so of course he was leisurely, while the girl he was interested in was still busy with a pile of work piling up.

    Nancy¡¯s hands were typing continuously on theputer keyboard from the moment she entered thepany until now, not paying attention to the people around her who were looking at her.

    ¡°Nancy, aren¡¯t you surfing the inte this morning?¡± Donna turned to Nancy and asked.

    ¡°No, is something wrong?¡±

    Seeing Nancy bewildered, Donna immediately held the phone in front of her.

    The phone screen disyed a photo of her and Daniel shopping together at the supermarket yesterday, which was published in the newspaper.

    Donna was extremely surprised to see that the person next to her had no expression on her face.

    ¡°Sis, you and Daniel aren¡¯t dating, are you?¡± Donna asked softly.

    ¡°No, he¡¯s my distant cousin.¡± Nancy shook her head and lied.

    ¡°Distant cousin?¡±

    ¡°Yes, what should I say? It¡¯s so far away, so far away that we¡¯re about to have nothing to do with each other anymore. Yesterday I bought a lot of things, so I asked him to take me away.¡±

    Seeing Donna nodding to show her trust, Nancy breathed a sigh of relief.

    Later, Daniel¡¯s manager confirmed to the media that he and the girl in the photo were distantly rted, so everything was peaceful and nothing to worry about.

    Suddenly, a famous cousin fell from the sky, so Nancy identally got more attention from everyone.

    Donna and several female colleagues also asked her to get Daniel¡¯s autograph for their younger brother and sister, making her extremely miserable.

    Lunchtime came, and everyone followed each other to the cafeteria. Because Nancy heard Dn say he would oftene to eat with the staff in the future, she cooked rice and brought it along.

    She went to the rooftop and brought her mat up there to avoid being dragged away by him while sleeping in the office.

    As for Dn, as soon as he entered the cafeteria, looking around and seeing no sign of Nancy, he immediately returned to his office and rewinded the camera.

    The screen showed thest figure of her leaving the office, carrying a lunch box and a mat as she headed to the elevator.

    He didn¡¯t need to look anymore, but he already knew where she was. So, he waited for her to finish eating and then quickly climbed up to the terrace.

    Waiting until Nancy fell asleep, Dn slowly walked closer to her. The shade of the ornamental star fruit tree was not enough to cover the girl¡¯s entire body, so he took off his vest and sat down next to her, blocking the streaks ofte winter sunlight on her chubby face.

    He looked at her for a long time as if to make up for the long period without her.

    When the rm bell rang from the phone, Nancy woke up with one eye closed and one eye open. Seeing the man looking at her, she sat up in panic and screamed.

    ¡°Oh my god, president, what are you doing here?¡±

    ¡°Seeing you sleeping alone, I was afraid that someone would sexually harass you, so I came to watch you.¡± Dn calmly took back his vest.

    ¡°Sexually harassing me? I feel like you¡¯re the only one in thispany who wants to sexually harass me.¡± Nancy muttered, quickly standing up.

    ¡°Really?¡± Dn held her with both hands, his breath getting closer and closer.

    ¡°Don¡¯t¡­ don¡¯t.¡±

    Looking at her grimacing face, heughed and gently let her go.

    ¡°From now on, I won¡¯te to the cafeteria or the editing room to bother you anymore, so you don¡¯t have to avoid me.¡±

    ¡°Really?¡± Nancy asked in surpriseText ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Dn smiled, nodded, then turned around.

    Waiting until his figure waspletely gone, she returned to the editing room and continued to plunge into the afternoon¡¯s work cycle.

    A few floors away, Rosalind had just arrived at the photography room to take pictures.

 Chapter 30

    Time passed like a shuttle and the words of thanks from the team members ended the promotional photo shoot for a new jewelry set called the Ruler Gold.

    This product line only for the upper ss was personally conceived by Lyle.

    Rosalind told Alisa to go down to the garage to wait for her and then went straight to Dn¡¯s office.

    Seeing his ssmate suddenly appear, he was not happy at all, bent down to continue signing the documents, and asked a polite question.

    ¡°Why did youe here?¡±

    ¡°The photo shoot ended early so I came to visit you.¡± Rosalind smiled, moving closer to him.

    ¡°You¡¯ve worked hard, so you should go home and rest.¡±

    ¡°If it were her, would you show this attitude?¡±

    ¡°Rosalind, don¡¯t you remember what I told you?¡±

    Those eyes as sharp as a knife made the smile on Rosalind¡¯s lips disappear. She sighed, stood up, and left.

    As soon as Rosalind opened the door, she saw Nancy passing by, so she deliberately called out loud so Dn could hear.

    ¡°Editor Nancy, what a coincidence. I see you again.¡±

    ¡°Miss Rosalind.¡± Nancy stopped and bowed.

    ¡°Today I took product advertising photos downstairs, and finished early so I went up to visit the president.¡±

    ¡°Is that so? I still have work to do, I¡¯ll go now, goodbye.¡±

    After finishing speaking, Nancy turned around and went straight into the deputy general director¡¯s office.

    She ced the documents neatly on the desk for her boss and while waiting for him to read them, she looked out the ss window.

    Just now she came up here to meet Lyle to ask for advice about organizing the year-end event, but unexpectedly she met Rosalind.

    At the same time, in province C, Stephen also left the hotel and went with Paul to the project area to visit, stopping by the orphanage to donate some money.

    The two men had childish souls so they couldn¡¯t help but swoop down on the group of children who were attentively making souvenirs.

    Stephen used white snail shells to create a pair of swans on a wooden base. He wanted to make a gift for his muse himself, but if he bought it, it would have no meaning. Paul saw that and also imitated his boss.

    Afterpleting the work, both of them went to the beach for a walk.

    Paul carefully put the pair of swans made of snail shells into a cloth bag, carried them in his hand, and walked along the road.

    The winter sunset sun shines on the paved road with a ssic golden-brown light.

    The color of the seawater became dark blue, and the rows of dry trees in the afternoon looked so sad.

    In the distance, the horizon and the sea seemed to merge into one, clouds shaped like rolling waves rising around the afternoon sun.

    Stephen looked at it for a long time before taking the picture. He felt like that side was the way to heaven.

    Paul was not interested in Stephen¡¯s hobby, he looked at the girls jogging. Seeing E in a dynamic sports outfit running towards him, he called out loudly.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°Miss E.¡±

    ¡°Mr. Paul, why are you standing here?¡± E immediately separated from the group and stopped.

    ¡°I¡¯m following Stephen.¡± Paul said and pointed towards Stephen.

    As soon as Paul finished speaking, the girls running with E suddenly called out. She quickly bowed to him and turned to leave. He hastily grabbed her hand and held her back.

    ¡°What¡¯s up?¡± E asked in surprise.

    ¡°Ah, this is for you, I made it myself, I hope you like it.¡±

    ¡°Thank you, goodbye.¡±

    E smiled softly, took the pair of swans made from white snail shells, and shyly ran away.

    Paul just stood there watching her figure slowly fade away and then blend into the crowd of people in front. The sunlight was so blinding that he could only see moving ck shadows.

    On the other side, Stephen looked at the assistant¡¯s bewildered appearance andughed. Just now, he turned around just as Paul was giving E the gift, so he took a few pictures.

    The clock bell rang signaling that it was five o¡¯clock in the afternoon and the Global Group employees quickly arranged their documents and left.

    Nancy had just walked to the main door when she heard her name being called, so she quickly looked around to search. It turned out that Daniel was happily running towards her, grinning widely.

    ¡°Cousin, have you finished work yet?¡±

    ¡°Yes, cousin.¡±

    Because Nancy knew there was a group of beauties behind her, she had to try to act with Daniel.

    She didn¡¯t know what this guy wanted, he could just pretend he didn¡¯t see her and then leave. What was he calling her name for?

    ¡°Daniel, please give us your autograph.¡± A young employee spoke up.

    ¡°Daniel, can you take a photo with us?¡± Donna also suggested.

    ¡°Of course, please help me take a photo.¡± Daniel winked at Nancy.

    So Nancy had to be their reluctant photographer. The staff members both got autographs and took pictures with their idols, so their faces looked fresh like fish just caught from the sea.

    After they dispersed, Nancy questioned Daniel.

    ¡°Why are you calling my name? Wasn¡¯t what happened yesterday chaotic enough?¡±

    ¡°What? You should feel honored to be my cousin, right?¡±

    ¡°Who wants to be your cousin? What a nuisance.¡±

    After ring at the actor, Nancy lifted her feet and left.

    Daniel looked at her small figure and smiled softly. He is a big fan of writer Song. Just now, he overheard and realized that she was the person who directly negotiated and edited that person¡¯s works, so he rushed down here.

    It seemed that this girl was not easy to tease, so he told himself to slowly approach her and entice her to let him meet his idol.

    Sitting and looking at the afternoon street through the bus window, Nancy suddenly remembered what happened at noon and suddenly felt a bit of loneliness creeping into her heart.

    She thinks it¡¯s natural that she¡¯s a little moved by Dn because he¡¯s so perfect, from a rich family, handsome, stylish, talented, powerful, and very gant.

    A person like him standing next to Rosalind would be much more worthy than standing next to her.

 Chapter 31

    Today, Nancy was in no mood to cook. As soon as she got off the bus, she went straight into the house.

    She put her hand in her bag and searched for her key until she found it. As soon as she took it out, she heard footsteps very close. Reflexively, she looked up.

    Seeing Dn approaching, she quickly opened the gate, but her hands were shaking so she couldn¡¯t open it. The keys were so simr that she suddenly didn¡¯t know which key was the right one. Finally, she dropped the keys on the ground.

    ¡°You changed the lock on the gate?¡±

    Dn asked, bending down to pick up the keys. Nancy reached out and grabbed it back, then quickly opened the gate and walked in.

    She had not finished closing the gate when he held it tightly. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn¡¯t make the gate move any further.

    ¡°What do you mean like this?¡± Nancy asked.

    ¡°I won¡¯t bother you at thepany, but I¡¯m not sure when going out.¡± Dn leisurely replied.

    ¡°Mr. President, please stop teasing me, okay? The beauty came into your room and you said you had no feelings for her.¡± Nancy pouted and let out a sarcastic word.

    ¡°Are you jealous?¡±

    ¡°No, why would I be jealous of a stranger? What does it have to do with me?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m so thirsty. Can¡¯t you invite your boss in for a drink? I worked very hard to create a job for you.¡±

    Dn¡¯s words made Nancy freeze for a few seconds. She listened but couldn¡¯t understand what he was saying.

    Global Group has thousands of people, he just acts like he is taking care of only her.

    Wasn¡¯t he just asking for water? There is nothing difficult.

    ¡°Come in.¡±

    Nancy said as she turned and walked in. Dn took the opportunity to follow closely behind her.

    Taking the ss of water from his beloved¡¯s hand, he leisurely walked out to the living room, sat on the sofa, and deliberately drank slowly.

    She followed and stood next to him, ring at him, thinking that if she had just poured him a little water, he would have finished it in just one gulp.

    After drinking about half of the ss, he leaned back and looked around the house.

    ¡°Why don¡¯t you go home yet?¡± She asked seriously.

    ¡°I haven¡¯t finished drinking yet, don¡¯t waste it.¡±

    Nancy got goosebumps when she saw the chairman¡¯s current appearance. At first, she thought the chairman was old, very dignified, and serious, but she didn¡¯t expect that he was a thick-faced guy.

    Remember the first day they met, Dn was not like this. At that time, she still had to speak carefully because he looked very mature and serious.

    Knowing clearly that he was using an excuse to stay, she walked over, picked up the ss of water, and drank it all in one gulp.

    ¡°Are you indirectly kissing me?¡± Dn nodded and looked at her.

    ¡°Oh my god, Mr. President, your imagination is so rich. The water is gone, pleasee home.¡± Sheughed, pointed to the door, and chased him away.

    ¡°I¡¯m hungry. ¡±

    ¡°Hungry? If you¡¯re hungry, go eat yourself. What does it have to do with me?¡±

    ¡°I have a stomachache. If I¡¯m too hungry, I won¡¯t be able to stand it.¡± Dn¡¯s face grimaced.

    ¡°Then go eat quickly, I didn¡¯t cook anything today.¡±

    ¡°Then let¡¯s go eat together.¡±

    After saying that, Dn quickly jumped off the sofa, grabbed Nancy¡¯s hand, and pulled her away.

    She looked at him in bewilderment and couldn¡¯t resist. He turned off the lights himself, then locked the door himself, then went out and locked the gate himself, just acting like this was his house.

    Because Nancy didn¡¯t want to go to a luxury ce, she offered to eat at a roadside restaurant. When she sat at the table, she boldly looked him straight in the face.

    The man sitting across from her was too handsome, taking up all the spotlight in the restaurant. Suddenly, she felt a little proud.

    After paying, Dn didn¡¯t rush to take Nancy home but stopped by the amusement park.

    After walking around, he took her to y a game of picking up stuffed animals, one of the games he was very good at.

    The middle-aged man¡¯s face was distorted as he looked at the gradually decreasing stuffed animal cab.

    Nancy stood next to Dn. Whatever stuffed animal he picked out, she put it in the bag, and soon the big bag was full of stuffed animals.

    The children around gathered around, shouting and cheering.

    As they were about to leave, Nancy saw Dn pull out his wallet and give the man money. She smiled slightly, feeling her heart flutter every time she met his eyes.

    If she kept following his wishes like this, she was afraid she would fall in love with him. With his position, she knew she couldn¡¯t reach him. She didn¡¯t want to be engulfed by pain again.

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡± Dn saw her suddenly absent-minded so he asked worriedly.

    ¡°No problem. Let¡¯s go home.¡± She shook her head.

    ¡°Okay.¡±Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Dn took Nancy to her house and waited until the gate was locked before driving back to his house. She held the bag of stuffed animals in her arms, feeling slightly sad.

    If that person was not the president of Global Group, if he was just an ordinary employee like her, perhaps she would not hesitate to open her heart to receive his love.

    The gap in status and family background is too difficult for her to ovee.

    Life likes to tease people, those who ask for love don¡¯t get it, and those who avoid it make the other person love them even more deeply.

    On the balcony, Rosalind gently caressed a newly bloomed orchid branch. Winter is almost over, but the emptiness and ice in her heart remain forever.

    She doesn¡¯t know when Dn will be able to turn around and see the girl who used her entire youth to diligently follow in his footsteps.

    Letting go of the orchid pot, she walked back into the room, her sigh echoing into the quiet night.

 Chapter 32

    At this moment, in the dark room, Lyle was still passionately editing the new photos taken of Rosalind.

    He clearly understood the feelings of his ssmate, so he could only quietly watch her from afar or through photos.

    On the day that Wynn suddenly returned from the academy, announcing that he overheard the conversation between Rosalind and Daniel, Lyle knew that Nathan had had an ident.

    The source of it all started when Rosalind asked Daniel to help her handle the Southernpany by putting pressure on the partners, asking them to slow down the payment schedule for the projects thispany was carrying out.

    On the other hand, she asked Daniel to order the bank to tighten and no longer support, pushing the Southernpany¡¯s finances to a dead end.

    Because she loved Nathan so much, she lied to Daniel that she wanted revenge on the person who did not ept her love.

    But her purpose is so that when the Southernpany is about to go bankrupt, she will appear and offer to help Nathan.

    But she did not expect that things would not be as she expected, going in apletely different direction.

    Saturday morning was a beautiful sunny day, the weather was still a bit cold even though a warm spring wasing.

    Dn took Cam to the car and drove her straight to E province to visit her old school friend and his wife, who were also Stephen¡¯s parents, Neil and Elysia.

    Their farm is located in a prime location, surrounded by mountains and streams. Here, Neil mainly grows grapes and raises dairy cows.

    Seeing his friend and her son visit him, he and his wife immediately went to wee them.

    ¡°Hello, you two.¡± Dn bowed politely.

    ¡°Let¡¯s go inside. Stephen will probably be home in the afternoon. I told him you¡¯de to visit.¡± Elysia spoke up.

    The couple quickly invited the two guests into the house and poured tea, weing them warmly.

    Neil only briefly asked Dn about the group¡¯s business situation, and then he, his wife, and Cam reviewed stories from when they were in school.

    After Dn finished his cup of tea, he asked permission to go out for a walk. The atmosphere in the quiet countryside was so pleasant, it made his soul seem to calm down.

    Walking to the bank of the stream, where the ducks were swimming leisurely, he felt sad when he saw the mother duck helping her ducklings preen their feathers.

    Even though he knew that life and death had be aw of nature, he could not happily ept it.

    The day he was discharged from the hospital was also the day he found out that his mother had a terrible cancer. So he gave up his dream and entered the business world, only hoping that she would have rxing days to rest.

    Dn knows his mother is proud of him, but what she desires most is a daughter-inw, which he can¡¯t fulfill.

    He told himself he would wait until the wedding went smoothly before he let Nancy and his mother meet.

    He has a strong belief that he will quickly win that girl¡¯s heart.

    In the afternoon, Stephen came back from province C. He slowly drove into the gate.

    Honestly, he wanted to visit home often, but every time his mother saw his face, she would ask about the progress of the project to find her future daughter-inw.

    So he felt scared, and the time he set foot here became less and less.

    Dn was very surprised when he saw Stephen carrying several foam boxes in the back of the car. Dn helped him bring them out while asking questions.

    ¡°What are these foam boxes?¡±

    ¡°Seafood donated by E.¡± Stephen replied tiredly.

    ¡°Did you ept bribes?¡± Dn squinted and asked.

    ¡°There¡¯s only a few crabs and you¡¯re telling me to ept bribes? Thanks to Paul¡¯s blessings. Maybe the president is about to hire a new assistant. He¡¯s at risk of bing the son-inw of Province C.¡±

    ¡°What¡¯s up?¡±

    ¡°Paul seems to have fallen in love with E, he even gave her a pair of swans¡­¡±

    Before Stephen finished speaking, Dn grabbed the pair of swans made of white snail shells in his hands and looked at them carefully.

    ¡°Did you visit the orphanage?¡±

    ¡°Give it back to me.¡± Stephen reached out and snatched it back, ring.

    Both of them quickly brought all the boxes into the kitchen and helped Elysia and Cam prepare. There are no daughters in the house, so the son is forced to go to the kitchen and cook.

    The dinner took ce in a friendly and happy atmosphere. Everyone talked for a while and then changed the topic to the two young masters¡¯ establishment of a family home.

    Contrary to Stephen¡¯s previous attitude of not caring about worldly affairs, today when he heard Elysia mention this issue, he responded enthusiastically.

    He ns to quit his job at Global Corporation after getting married, travel around the world with his wife, then return to the farm to live, grow grapes together, and raise dairy cows.

    When Neil and Elysia heard their son express that wish, they were extremely happy. Cam also enthusiastically supported his decision.

    As for Dn, he just remained silent. He knew clearly that his friend had not suddenly changed like that.

    After dinner, darkness covered the farm. Dn went up to the terrace to enjoy the fresh air, watch the dim stars in the quiet ck sky, and hear the sound of insects ying a mncholy tune.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    Dn still knows Neil is his benefactor, but if he forces him to give up the girl he loves for Stephen, he can¡¯t do it. That love was extremely precious to him, even though it was fragile.

    ¡°Haven¡¯t you slept yet?¡± Stephen walked closer to Dn and gave him a ss of wine.

    ¡°I rarely get to go to the countryside like this. I am enjoying it.¡±

    ¡°I thought you were that businessman with a dry heart.¡±

    Stephen said and lightly touched his ss to Dn¡¯s, then brought it to his lips.

    Dn took a sip of wine, continued to look into the distance, and spoke.

    ¡°Stephen, if one day you and I love the same girl, what will you do?¡±

    ¡°No big deal. We willpete fairly with each other. In the end, I will respect her decision.¡± Stephen answered.

    ¡°Really?¡±

    ¡°Of course. I¡¯m fair and reasonable. Even so, I will still do the job you assigned well, do you agree?¡±

    Stephen did not know that the person Dn mentioned was Nancy. He thought Dn was just asking a random question. He was excited to return to the city and immediately went into the darkroom to develop the photos and give them to her.

 Chapter 33

    While Stepheny awake all night, the person he missed slept soundly until dawn.

    It wasn¡¯t until Nancy heard the bell ring that she woke up. Seeing Jolie¡¯s phone number, she quickly stood up.

    After finishing personal hygiene, Nancy went back out and chatted with her best friend. After a long conversation, Jolie told Nancy that she and her husband were nning to go to the city to start a business.

    Previously, Mason had just graduated from university and the economy was difficult so he gave up his dream and went to the mountains to grow tea.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    Now that life has be more leisurely, he discussed with his wife the transfer ofnd to his aunt and used capital to open a smallpany operating in the construction field.

    Jolie saw that her husband had worked hard and sacrificed for their family over the years, so now she wanted to stand by his side and help him fulfill his great ambition.

    Her best friend¡¯s call reminded Nancy of that idyllic mountain area. She walked to the desk and raised her hand to caress the delicately engraved fountain pen, with a light lemon yellow stone attached to the pen cap.

    This is the gift that Alex gave her before returning to country Y.

    Six years ago, while passing by the rapids, Nancy and Jolie identally saw Alex fainted on the shore. Then the two girls tried to take him home.

    In Nancy¡¯s memory, he was a quite friendly and gentle person, with blue eyes, characteristic blond hair, and a sunny smile.

    ording to Alex¡¯s introduction, he is an amateur writer who likes to explore strangends and write about them as well as the lives of the people there.

    When he knew Nancy shared his passion, he encouraged her topose. The fountain pen was the encouragement gift he gave her.

    The day Alex left that ce, he promised to return, but for many years she saw no sign of her foreign friend anywhere. His phone number and email are no longer working.

    However, Nancy always silently thanked him for motivating her. She still hopes that someday they can meet again.

    The weekend was the most boring day for Wynn, he justy on the sofa waiting for Lyle to cook.

    His brother was busy and he couldn¡¯t help, so he felt very guilty, but if he got involved in anything, it would be ruined and in less than three minutes, his brother would kick him out of the kitchen. The things he can do well are sing and dance.

    Lyle said that the two brothers only ate at restaurants all week, so on their days off, they had to cook at home to get enough nutrients.

    But even if Wynn eats outside, it¡¯s delicious food, so he¡¯s afraid his body will get too much nutrients. However, he knew Lyle appreciated family meals very much.

    ¡°Why don¡¯t you find a wife to cook for you?¡± Wynn dragged himself to the dining table and asked.

    ¡°Do you think it¡¯s easy to bring someone else¡¯s daughter home to cook for you?¡± Lyle replied, his hands still working quickly.

    ¡°If you feel that having a wife is difficult, then how can I have a wife?¡±

    ¡°Let¡¯s eat.¡±

    Wynn¡¯s face fell and he walked over to help Lyle carry the food and put it on the table.

    There were many things he had to admit that Lyle was very good at, including cooking. Sometimes he feels that living with his brother is better than living with his parents.

    After eating, Wynn went into the room to listen to music, and Lyle took his camera and went out.

    His work schedule is full all week, and only the quiet time on weekends is reserved for him.

    Lyle and Stephen are both people with a true passion for photography, wanting to explore and discover aesthetic beauty through a ssical lens.

    They like to develop their photos themselves in a dark room. For both of them, that dark, red room is their holy ce.

    When they take pictures for work, they always use digital cameras, so the shooting speed is much faster, but with film cameras, it¡¯s impossible to produce a photo in five seconds.

    This art is like a quiet musical note amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life.

    The reed grass fields on the outskirts of the city are still blooming after a long winter.

    The wild, pure white flowers in the sunset swaying in the wind entering Lyle¡¯s lens are even more beautiful.

    In the middle of the idyllic scene, a girl is sitting on the round concrete culverts, admiring the scenery. Her loose hair fluttered in the afternoon breeze. Pale yellow streaks of sunlight adorned her elegant face.

    ¡°Rosalind.¡± Lyle approached Rosalind and called softly.

    ¡°Lyle, where are you going?¡± She was surprised and asked instead of saying hello.

    ¡°I just went out to take pictures.¡±

    After speaking, Lyle walked over and sat next to Rosalind. She looked at him, smiling slightly.

    Compared to when he was wearing office clothes, he now looks dusty and wild, true to the temperament of a photographer.

    ¡°Peaceful, right? I remember when I was in college, I often came here when I was stressed.¡± She said in a sad voice.

    ¡°Um.¡± He replied softly.

    This ce also contains Lyle¡¯s childhood. His grandmother¡¯s small house was located close to this field of reed flowers, but has now been reced by towering apartment buildings, among them are projects invested by Global Group.

    Lyle loves flowers that are not too noble or too beautiful like he loves his peaceful childhood.

    In the afternoons, he often chased each other with his friends from poor families in the wildflower fields, immersing themselves in nature and nts.

    Rosalind will probably never know that many years ago, there was a guy secretly watching and taking photos of her here.

    Lyle was immersed in a peaceful space when suddenly the message notification sound rang out.

    He quickly took out his phone to look and saw that the sender was Wynn. Wynn said that he would go out and y, taking advantage of the time when he was not famous to go flying and dancing.

 Chapter 34

    Fortunately, Wynn doesn¡¯t know who Lyle is with. If he knew, he would definitely scream. In his eyes, Rosalind is no different from a fox.

    Receiving Lyle¡¯s agreement, Wynn immediately left the house and drove around the streets.

    When the car stopped at the traffic light, he saw Mina waiting for the bus on the other side of the street, his eyes were immediately glued to her.

    Without wearing thepany uniform, she looked lighter, her floral silk dress gently fluttering in the wind, her slightly wavy hair falling down her back.

    As soon as the light changed color, he immediately ran over, parked the car, and rolled down the window, showing off his innocent, concerned face.

    ¡°Mina, why are you standing here? Where is your car?¡±

    ¡°Oh, I went for a walk and bought some things. My cousin borrowed my car for a date.¡± Mina smiled brightly and replied.

    ¡°Get in the car, I¡¯ll take you home.¡±

    Because Wynn was so enthusiastic, Mina agreed. She immediately got into the car and showed him the way to drive.

    The car drove around for a while and finally arrived.

    Mina¡¯s beautiful white two-story house is located in a small alley. Fortunately, the car was able to drive in.

    This was the first time Wynn set foot in her house. He looked around, feeling that this cozy and neatly decorated space was no different from the house he had seen in Tom and Jerry or Doremon cartoons.

    ¡°You let Lyle stay home alone?¡± Mina asked while her hands and feet were still busy taking off her shoes and putting away things.

    ¡°He went out before me. I felt sad so I drove away. Are you living alone?¡± Wynn said as he went to the bookshelf, his hand caressed the four-season snow globe.

    ¡°Yes. My parents both live in the countryside and onlye here asionally.¡±

    Mina replied and quickly put the food in the refrigerator. Next, she quickly got a ss of fruit juice for Wynn.

    Taking the ss of fruit juice from the senior¡¯s hand, Wynn¡¯s heart almost jumped out and his ears felt hot.

    That snow globe was the Christmas gift he gave her the first year he knew her. A few yearster, until now, he didn¡¯t dare to give her anything anymore.

    When he determined the feelings in his heart, he suddenly felt scared. He was afraid that she would find out, so he paid attention to every move.

    Wynn sees himself as not much different from Lyle. Could it be due to gics?

    ording to his father, in the past, his mother proposed to his father first, otherwise he probably wouldn¡¯t be here now.

    But if he had waited for Mina to propose, maybe that would have been when he had be an old man with a cane.

    After drinking the ss of fruit juice and eating the entire fruit te, Wynn said goodbye to Mina and left but still felt regretful in his heart.

    He secretly thought that if Mina was alone at home on the weekend, she probably didn¡¯t have a boyfriend. So he felt reassured.

    Arriving in front of the souvenir shop, Wynn stopped the car and went in to buy a crystal love ball with the image of a sweet couple and then quickly returned home.

    He didn¡¯t want to wait any longer. He was determined that after his debut, whether he was famous or not, he would officially pursue the person of his dreams.

    Darkness gradually fell on the roads, covering the city, and the small house was always lit untilte at night.

    As a habit, after turning off theputer, Nancy pushed the door open and stepped out onto the balcony, feeling the gentle coldness of the night wind blowing on her.

    The familiar image reappeared. Dn was leaning against the shiny ck car and looked up with a gentle smile on his lips.

    She thought he wouldn¡¯te today.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    Both of them stood silently looking at each other for a long time. A momentter, Dn gently waved goodbye to her and slowly got into the car.

    Nancy suddenly turned around, ran down the stairs, opened the door, and rushed towards the gate.

    However, the car had already arrived at the beginning of the alley. She could only see two red lights at the rear of the car.

    She sighed, slightly disappointed, bowed her head for a long time, and then turned back. She didn¡¯t know the car was slowly moving backward until a deep male voice spoke.

    ¡°Nancy.¡±

    ¡°President, aren¡¯t you gone already?¡± Nancy quickly turned her head and asked in surprise.

    ¡°I still forgot something so I went back.¡±

    ¡°What is it?¡±

    ¡°Good night. Dream about me.¡±

    The wish was like a lover¡¯s wish to each other, making Nancy blush, her hands sped together in confusion.

    She looked at Dn and then looked at the sky and ground. In the end, she didn¡¯t know what to do, so she ran back into the house, turned off all the lights, jumped into bed, and crawled under the nket, trying to suppress her frantically beating heart.

    The feeling from many years ago appeared, just like the time Nathan proposed to her.

    She felt extremely embarrassed. He just said good night and she¡¯s already confused like this. Is it true that the older she gets, the harder it is to control her emotions?

    Dn smiled, looked up at the dark window for a long time, then got into the car. He believes his intuition is not wrong. He was convinced that Nancy was more or less moved because of him.

    His heart was now beating in the same rhythm as hers. He hopes the love boat carrying the two of them will soon arrive at the shore of happiness.

    Just yesterday he didn¡¯t see her, but he missed her so much.

    The city tonight is engulfed in winds carrying the scent of old love. Shimmering colorful electric lights paint magnificent architectural works and beautify his entire soul.

 Chapter 35

    At 8:30 a. m. at the airport, Daria pulled her suitcase slowly toward the arrival gate. After so many years, she finally came back here.

    She waved for a taxi and told the driver to take her to the Global Corporation headquarters.

    The door opened slightly, and when Stephen saw the girl in a stylish outfit and high-heeled boots walk in, he thought he had astigmatism and quickly stood up.

    Since early morning, he had gone to Dn¡¯s office to wait to see which high-ranking person the president invited to help him, but in the end, it turned out to be Daria.

    ¡°Doctor Daria. What¡¯s going on? Dn, didn¡¯t you say to recruit someone to help me?¡± Stephen asked.

    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s her.¡± Dn calmly replied.

    ¡°Since when did the medical industry encroach on the project business industry?¡± Stephen is still surprised.

    Daria gently approached and showed her profile to Stephen. He looked at her and then opened it to see.

    And the master¡¯s degree in business administration caught his eye, making him bewildered.

    ¡°I thought you were just a doctor.¡±

    ¡°Do you have any furtherments?¡± Daria crossed her arms and asked.

    ¡°It¡¯s over. Doctor Daria, I see you do a very good job at the hospital, why did you suddenly change jobs?¡±

    ¡°This is my passion.¡± She smiled and answered.

    Stephen exhaled, gave the document back to Daria, and sat down on the sofa.

    At this moment, Daria walked over to shake Dn¡¯s hand, warmly praising him.

    ¡°Hello, Mr. President, you still look as cool as before.¡±

    ¡°He is a product of stic surgery.¡± Stephen interjected with a pointed mouth.

    ¡°This is also myst work.¡± Daria continued.

    ¡°Are you two going to stand here and dig into my personal life?¡± Dn¡¯s face turned ck and his voice was serious.

    Both Stephen and Daria were so busy talking that they forgot the taboo that Dn didn¡¯t want anyone to repeat this story.

    So Stephen quickly stood up, grabbed Daria¡¯s hand, and dragged her out with an excuse.

    ¡°I¡¯ll take you around the Global Corporation.¡±

    After they left, the room became quiet as usual, with only the sound of typing on the keyboard and the asional sound of a pen running on paper.

    It wasn¡¯t until Paul walked in that the atmosphere in the room became a little less quiet.

    Dn saw Paul constantly checking his phone while waiting for him to sign the documents when he suddenly remembered the words that Stephen warned him about.

    It seems that this assistant is really in love, probably talking sweet words to flirt with the person of his dreams.

    Thinking about that, Dn smiled softly.

    Although Dn thought so, in reality, they were just normal messages of concern. Paul still didn¡¯t dare say anything to E, he just asked if she had eaten, what she was doing, and whether it was sunny in C province now¡­

    The first day of the working week ends and everyone feels like time has passed too quickly, big bosses and employees alike feel the same.

    After clicking to turn off theputer, Nancy tidily arranged her documents and then picked up her bag to leave.

    Before she reached the gate, she saw Stephen waiting, so she quickly ran closer to him.

    All day today, he took Daria to visit thepany¡¯s departments and then helped her find a house.

    Although thepany has a clean and fragrant dormitory, that person likes to live alone and quietly.

    ¡°Stephen.¡± Nancy bowed slightly in greeting.

    ¡°You are back. I was going to go to thepany to pick you up, but I realized it was toote, so I guessed that you had already gotten on the bus so I drove straight here.¡± Stephen smiled friendly.

    ¡°What are you looking for me?¡± She asked shyly.

    ¡°For you.¡± He said while giving her a box.

    Nancy¡¯s face lit up when she saw that inside the box were photos of her riding a wooden horse, seascapes at sunset and sunrise, and even a pair of white swans made of snail shells.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°So beautiful.¡± She was touched and spoke.

    ¡°Luckily you like them.¡±

    Stephen said softly and looked at the bag of food in Nancy¡¯s hand. Before he could speak, the phone rang loudly, forcing him to answer quickly.

    He didn¡¯t know what Daria did to make the faucet burst. She didn¡¯t know who to ask for help, so she immediately called the guy who took her to rent this house.

    ¡°Doctor Daria, did I owe you something in my previous life?¡±

    Stephen squealed and hung up the phone. After sighing to regainposure, he turned to look at Nancy and smiled regretfully.

    ¡°I¡¯ll go now, have a nice afternoon.¡±

    ¡°Yes, thank you.¡± Nancy gently bowed her head.

    Stephen sadly drove back to Daria¡¯s ce. Looking at the soaked house and the soaking girl standing in front of him, her elegant appearance from the morning gone, he could only shake his head and quickly run to the water meter and turn off the valve.

    ¡°Are you from the countryside to the city?¡± Stephen raised his face and asked.

    ¡°No, I¡¯m from the high city going to the low city.¡± Daria quickly replied to reduce embarrassment.

    After ring at Daria, Stephen quickly ran to buy a tube of glue and meticulously re-glued the faucet, while she got a towel to clean the house.

    After finishing his work, he looked over and saw the youngdy cleaning the house. He immediately rushed in and rolled up his sleeves to help her.

    Stephen thought that he must have stolen something from her in his previous life, so now he was being tortured by her like this.

    After cleaning the house, he looked up and it was already dark, so he told her to shower, change clothes, and then take her out to eat.

    After Daria finished eating, she immediately offered to eat sweet soup, so Stephen took her to a roadside sweet soup shop because he heard that the sweet soup shop had been open for a long time. Although not luxurious, it was extremely famous.

 Chapter 36

    ¡°That person is our president, right?¡± Daria suddenly spoke up.

    Following Daria¡¯s eyes, Stephen realized that the man was indeed Dn, and next to him was Nancy.

    When Daria saw Stephen¡¯s face suddenly change color, his hands clenched and pressed down on the table, she became extremely worried.

    ¡°Stephen, what¡¯s wrong with you?¡±

    ¡°Nothing, eat quickly and go home.¡± Stephen replied faintly.

    ¡°Do we need to say hello?¡±

    ¡°No need.¡±

    Because Stephen expressed his difort, Daria stopped talking, she tried to eat quickly and followed him to the car.

    The whole way home, Stephen¡¯s face looked like he was at a funeral, his usual sense of humor had disappeared.

    He remembered what Dn said two days ago. It turned out that his close friend knew that he was interested in Nancy but still deliberately tried to get in the way.

    Stephen felt ufortable because he didn¡¯t know when the two of them knew each other. Maybe it was when they met at thepany canteen, or maybe before that because Nancy¡¯s attitude that day was very strange.

    When Stephen took Daria home, Dn and Nancy leisurely stood up to pay.

    Dn carefully opened the car door, covered Nancy¡¯s head so she could sit in, then ran to the driver¡¯s seat and turned the car around.

    When they arrived, Dn quickly got out of the car and opened the car door for Nancy to get out. She looked at him tiredly for a long time then spoke seriously.

    ¡°President, this is thest time I ept an invitation to eat with you. So, please don¡¯te here anymore.¡±

    ¡°You have the right to refuse, but I will stille. Nancy, is your heart not moved by me?¡± Dn resolutely his stance. His deep voice also carried a bit of sadness.

    ¡°Does that matter?¡± Nancy asked coldly.

    ¡°Very important.¡± He nodded, his eyes looking forward to an answer.

    ¡°I am not moved. Now I just want to focus on work. You cane but don¡¯t call and bother me anymore. Now, please go home.¡±

    After finishing speaking, Nancy quickly went back into the house, locked the door, went upstairs, and closed all the curtains.

    Dn stood there and looked up. This girl knows how to make others disappointed.

    Yesterday, looking at her confused appearance, he thought she was starting to have feelings for him. Now it¡¯s good, she broke off the rtionship with him with just one word.

    Looking up at the door frame that was covered with curtains, he sighed softly.

    ¡°Nancy, is your heart made of stone? If you want to focus on work then I will use work to approach you.¡±

    At eight o¡¯clock in the morning, the editorial department¡¯s quick meeting ended and everyone shuffled back to work.

    Lyle went to Nancy¡¯s desk and reviewed the year-end event nning script.

    After asking her to adjust some content, he seemed satisfied. Mina also stood silently next to him, waiting for him to attend the meeting with the partnerpany.

    ¡°Editor Nancy, the president wants to see you.¡± Paul suddenly appeared and spoke loudly.

    As soon as he finished speaking, three people with six eyes, not to mention a dozen other eyes, stared at him at the same time, making him confused and feeling like he was passing on a decree.

    ¡°Why does the president want to meet me?¡± Nancy asked worriedly.

    ¡°Ah, the president wants you toe up with an idea for the group¡¯s first trip of the year.¡± Paul answered honestly.

    ¡°Dear Deputy General Director, does the editor also have to do this?¡± Nancy turned to her boss to ask for help.

    ¡°Usually, that¡¯s the job of thepany¡¯s union.¡± Lyle was also so surprised that he was bewildered.

    ¡°In short, pleasee to the president¡¯s office.¡±  Paul leaned over, extending his hand to invite her in the style of a nobleman.

    Nancy¡¯s face was distorted, other employees also sympathized with her because they heard that the president was an extremely difficult, perfectionist old man.

    Furthermore, they also heard that he had a long-term illness that he hid, and was so ugly that even if he had a mountain of money, he still couldn¡¯t get a wife, and he¡¯s been single until now.

    Even though Mina knew, she still had to pretend not to know and pretend to be dumbfounded.

    Mina felt that Nancy was forced by the chairman because it didn¡¯t look like she was willing at all.

    She felt that her thoughts were correct because Dn was too violent. Although Lyle said that Nancy had fallen that day, Mina didn¡¯t believe it, and the fact that high heels were in one ce but Nancy was in another the day before made her even more suspicious.

    Arriving in front of the president¡¯s office, Nancy tried to regain herposure, took a deep breath, then opened the door and walked in, bowing low.

    ¡°Hello, president.¡±

    ¡°Please ask Stephen to speed up the process of appraising Sunny House¡¯s new design for me.¡± Dn said and gave the documents to Daria.

    ¡°Yes, goodbye.¡± Daria politely took it and quickly left.

    When the girl¡¯s footsteps disappeared behind the door, Nancy felt a chill run down her spine.

    She looked up and saw the desk was empty. She blinked a few times and suddenly felt the breath on her neck and the whisper in her ear.

    ¡°I¡¯m here.¡±

    ¡°President, please give me the job.¡± Nancy was startled and quickly turned around to avoid him.

    ¡°What¡¯s up? Yesterday you boldly chased me away but today you¡¯re timid.¡±

    ¡°This is the away stadium, yesterday was the home stadium.¡± She muttered.

    Dn¡¯s ears were sharp enough to hear her words. He almost burst outughing, but luckily he could hold it back.

    After adjusting his face to be serious like the image of a big boss preparing to assign work, he gave Nancy a piece of paper, on which were many requests for the trip.

    Nancy looked at the paper and was dizzy.  She had to choose a location with the requirement of having a hot spring, then she had to choose amodation, breakfast, lunch, afternoon, dinner, transportation, group games, and night parties¡­

    The more she read, the more her headache became. What does this have to do with the editorial staff?

    She secretly thought that the president was using thepany¡¯s work to take revenge on her. He didn¡¯t have her love so he tried to torment her.

    She feels that people who have power are hateful. She told herself to do well, making him open his eyes.

    ¡°Don¡¯t worry, President, I will try.¡±

    Nancy calmly epted the job, bowed, and left quickly.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Seeing her like that, Dn became even more depressed. As long as she says that this job is too difficult, she can¡¯t do it herself and begs him a little, he can happily let thepany¡¯s union handle it.

    Looking at that indomitable and brave appearance, not afraid of difficulties, determined to win, made him extremely ufortable.

 Chapter 37

    The entire editing room looked at Nancy¡¯s frustrated appearance when she returned and all expressed sympathy for her and discussed it loudly.

    They say that things like organizing tours and pics should be entrusted to people who know them, not to people who don¡¯t know anything about them.

    ¡°The president deliberately oppressed you. Did you offend him?¡± Donna said what everyone in the room wanted to say.

    ¡°Yes, he is an old buffalo that wants to graze on young grass. I didn¡¯t agree so he wanted to torment me.¡± Nancy mumbled in a low voice.

    When Donna heard that, she stopped asking and rushed back to her seat, typing continuously.

    She felt that the president was so scary. She felt lucky because she was not targeted by him.

    While the atmosphere in the editing room was so bustling, the atmosphere in the deputy general director¡¯s office was quite quiet.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    Daria looked at Stephen¡¯s appearance as if he had lost his soul and could guess a part of his thoughts.

    Before, she knew he was a humorous and somewhat crazy person, but now he was so quiet that she felt ufortable.

    ¡°I saw that girl entering the president¡¯s room just now.¡±

    Daria suddenly spoke, causing Stephen¡¯s hand to stop on the page. He looked up at her.

    ¡°Then what?¡±

    ¡°When I went to deliver the documents, I saw hering back in a bad mood.¡± She lowered her voice.

    ¡°Please tell the design and engineering department to revise the design of these parts ording to the wishes of the construction department of province C.¡± Stephen pushed the documents to Daria¡¯s hand and said.

    ¡°Oui Monsieur.¡±

    ¡°Speak yournguage.¡±

    ¡°Yes, sir.¡±

    The clock hands kept spinning, urging Daria and the staff to be even more busy, including Nancy.

    When she saw the clock showing nearly five o¡¯clock in the afternoon, she immediately rearranged her documents and walked down to the union office to ask for help.

    Fortunately for Nancy, the head of the union office, Edana is a girl who admires Daniel very much.

    Edana heard that Nancy was her idol¡¯s distant cousin, so she immediately agreed to support her. In exchange, after the trip ended, she wanted Nancy to arrange a meal for her with Daniel.

    Because Nancy was at a dead end, she had to agree. She regretted that she said something she shouldn¡¯t have said to Daniel the other day.

    Butpared to Dn, Daniel is not scary at all. She secretly thought that one day she would find a way to approach him again and boldly beg him.

    Coming out of the union room, Nancy walked straight to the bus stop and waited.

    Her hair fluttered when the wind blew gently, making her figure more graceful.

    Today, she was the only one waiting at the bus stop because her direction did not coincide with the direction of the other employees. Furthermore, they drive their car. There are very few employees of Global Group who are too poor.

    While leisurely counting cars, a red car suddenly pulled over quickly, making Nancy startled.

    When the windshield lowered, the man inside poked his head out and winked at her.

    ¡°Nancy, do you want to take a walk around the city?¡±

    ¡°Stephen.¡± Nancy spoke up in surprise.

    ¡°Get in the car.¡±

    ¡°Okay.¡±

    Nancy¡¯s mood today was not very good, so when she heard Stephen¡¯s proposal, she immediately agreed. She quickly reached out and opened the car door to sit in.

    Stephen took her to the outskirts of the city and walked together.

    In the bright yellow sunlight of thete afternoon, white smoke from the row of houses on the other side drifted over the river.

    Nancy leisurely walked along the riverbank, reaching out to pick purple foxtail flowers.

    Stephen was fascinated and pointed the lens at her. The girl¡¯s gentle beauty and the simplicity of the surrounding scenery made his heart flutter.

    ¡°Nancy, it seems I like you. What should I do?¡±

    Stephen said only enough for himself to hear. The gentle afternoon wind seemed to lull his soul into sadness.

    He cherishes his friendship with Dn and also sympathizes with his painful and heartbreaking past.

    So, although he wanted to say love right now, he tried to hold back. He told himself to wait a little longer. If he determined that there was no love between his best friend and the girl he liked, or it was only one-sided, he would take the opportunity.

    Quite a distance from where they stood, the film crew directed by Kent was rushing toplete the final scene.

    The moment thest sunlight of the day went out, his cry of ¡°cut¡± also rang out, ending a hard day of filming. He approached and enthusiastically shook Daniel¡¯s hand.

    ¡°Daniel, thank you, have a nice afternoon.¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s myst movie, I have to do it well.¡± Daniel smiled.

    ¡°Later, I won¡¯t be able to direct a movie with you in it anymore, I¡¯m really sad.¡±

    ¡°You¡¯re exaggerating too much.¡±

    Daniel quickly waved goodbye, changed clothes, and drove home.

    After driving for a while, his phone screen lit up. It was a text message from someone in thepany revealing information about the scenario for Global Group¡¯s year-end event.

    That person revealed that they would arrange for him and Rosalind to appear on the red carpet together.

    Daniel¡¯s lips showed a bitter smile. He knew clearly that that arrogant girl did not want to be with him.

    Wynn¡¯s MV Crying for You reached twenty million views within a few hours of release, setting a new domestic record, and making him famous overnight.

    This sess is partly because he sings and dances well, and partly because he has the backing, heavy advertising, and propaganda from Global Group.

    Moreover, the person acting with him is none other than the national goddess Rosalind.

    Dn and Lyle are old foxes in business, so as soon as Wynn became famous, they tried to find work for him.

    He has to attend events, meet and interact with fans, shootmercials, represent brands, and sing and y cameos in big movies. In his free time, he has to practice vocals and dance¡­

    Wynn felt like he was about to turn into a second Lyle. He doesn¡¯t have any time for himself anymore.

    But thanks to that, he has the right to choose co-stars in his next productions.

 Chapter 38

    The skillful movements against the catchy melody take ce continuously and evenly. Choreographer Emma walked back and forth, nodding in satisfaction.

    She had to admit that this rookie was very smart, he only needed to look at her choreography once and he could follow it without any mistakes.

    At break time, Wynn saw Mina lurking at the door, so he was so happy that he wanted to cry and quickly ran out. Only he knows how much he misses her.

    ¡°Miss Mina, long time no see.¡±

    ¡°Yes, it¡¯s for you.¡±

    Wynn took the bag from Mina¡¯s hand, his heart beating rapidly. He found it very simr to the scene where a girl takes care of a guy in romance movies, bringing food and water to the workce.

    He was choking with emotion when Mina spoke up.

    ¡°Wynn, I have something to tell you.¡±

    ¡°Yes, please tell me.¡± Wynn¡¯s eyes lit up, looking forward.

    ¡°My nephews and nieces in the countryside admire you very much. So, can you sign some of your daily photos so I can take them home as gifts?¡±

    ¡°What? Oh, of course, it¡¯s okay.¡±

    ¡°So when you have the photos, please text me, and I¡¯lle and get them, goodbye.¡±

    ¡°Hey, sister¡­¡±

    Mina walked so fast that she didn¡¯t have time to hear Wynn¡¯s small call.

    Looking at the beautiful figure disappearing, he felt extremely sad. Just now, he thought that he would be confessed to by her like his mother did to his father.

    He took the sandwich from the bag, brought it to his mouth, bit and chewed, before swallowing this piece, he bit the other piece, causing him to choke.

    He quickly opened the water bottle, took a sip, and then coughed. He looked so pitiful.

    While Wynn danced so much that he almost twisted his leg, the partner in his debut MV was quite leisurely.

    During this time, Rosalind was free, so she agreed to appear as a cameo in a scene for Daniel¡¯s movie as herst cooperation because he kept begging.

    She is still afraid that if she reaches his limit, he will reveal the past.

    She can have a bad image in the eyes of anyone except Dn. She wanted herself to always be pure, gentle, and holy in front of him.

    Today is the day that scene was filmed. Rosalind will transform into a famous singer in the capital named Be.

    Brian, yed by Daniel, argued and was angry with the female lead named Sarah, yed by emerging actress Laura.

    Brian was heartbroken so he went to the bar, drowned in alcohol, and wanted to use Be as Laura¡¯s substitute but couldn¡¯t because in his heart he only had the female lead.

    In this scene, the director only needed Daniel to throw Rosalind on the bed, then bend down to look at her for a moment, and then stand up.

    Rosalind saw the script written like that so she felt extremely reassured.

    After Kent shouted ¡°acting¡±, Daniel rushed to hug Rosalind and carried her to bed.

    The camera approached closely, trying to film close-ups of the two of their faces. Kent sat in front of the monitor and felt like something was wrong.

    The male lead¡¯s eyes filled with affection at this moment are more passionate than any scene with the female lead.

    Rosalind quickly entered the role, wrapping her arms around Daniel¡¯s neck, her sparkling eyes seducing him.

    Kent saw that the male lead was not standing up, but before he could open his mouth to remind him, he suddenly almost froze.

    Daniel kissed Rosalind on the lips. Rosalind was so surprised that she didn¡¯t have time to react.

    This kiss was not a normal screen kiss, she felt that he was deliberately possessing her.

    ¡°Cut, cut.¡± Kent shouted.

    At this point, Daniel let go of Rosalind. Alisa quickly ran to Rosalind¡¯s side and helped her up.

    ¡°Daniel, what are you doing? The script doesn¡¯t have this scene.¡± Alisa was angry.

    ¡°Sorry. Seeing her, I was haunted by the scene of the movie Bright Moonlight, so I was temporarily lost in my emotions.¡±

    ¡°Okay, Alisa, he didn¡¯t do it on purpose.¡± Rosalind spoke softly.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    In the end, they had to re-enact this scene, the previous footage was thrown into the trash.

    Laura witnessed everything and felt extremely ufortable. She knows clearly that Daniel is the heir to LE Bank, so she wants to strive to act with him and find an opportunity to turn the love in the movie into real love.

    She hoped to be able to step into LE Bank and be Daniel¡¯s wife, but looking at his behavior, she knew he was already in love with Rosalind.

    At this time, in the editing room, Nancy did not want to lift her legs when looking at Dn¡¯s text message to her. He called her to the president¡¯s room to report on the tour n.

    For several nights in a row, through the gap in the curtain on the window frame, she always saw him leaning against the car and looking up.

    Whenever she turned off the lights early, he left early, and when she was busy workingte at night, he just stood there as if he had taken root there.

    Hearing the knock on the door, Dn quickly swallowed the painkiller and threw the bottle into the desk drawer.

    ¡°Hello, president.¡±

    ¡°Please sit down.¡±

    Next, Dn attentively looked at Nancy while she enthusiastically summarized her ns for the trip.

    Whatever she said, he replied ¡°Okay¡±. But when she talked about the dish, she didn¡¯t hear anything he said so she was surprised and looked up.

    ¡°President, do you think these dishes are okay?¡±

    ¡°Very cute, I like it very much.¡±

    ¡°What? Lobsters and oysters are cute, you say?¡±

    ¡°Oh no. I mean those dishes will be delicious. I approve.¡± Dn quickly exined.

    Seeing her looking at him in confusion, he quickly tried to find a way to change the subject.

    ¡°At the night dance party, the male side should draw the names of the female side and pair them up as dance partners. Doing so will be more interesting because everyone will have to participate, avoiding situations where people are shy and avoid it.¡±

    ¡°But not everyone knows how to dance. Is it okay to do so?¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, we¡¯re just having fun, it¡¯s not important whether we dance right or wrong. As for the group game, I decided to choose tug of war ording to your wishes, then add water balloon throwing.¡±

    ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll take notes.¡±

 Chapter 39

    When Nancy walked out of the president¡¯s room, it was already lunchtime, so she rushed back to put away her documents and quickly went to the cafeteria.

    When she got there, she saw Stephen sitting there waiting, he even took the food for her.

    The employees have gradually gotten used to the deputy general directoring here to eat with them, so they no longer discuss anything.

    When he finished eating, he gave her the photos taken yesterday by the riverbank.

    ¡°You worked so fast.¡±

    ¡°Do you like them? Looks very soulful.¡±

    ¡°True and nostalgic yellow color of the eighties. I like them very much. Thank you.¡±

    Looking at the girl¡¯s face, Stephen felt sad again. He wanted to hold her hand and travel everywhere. He wanted to take a set of photos for her in the ces they would go through and also photos revolving around her daily life on the farm, some popr, some luxurious.

    What Stephen told his parents about his ns after marriage was directed towards Nancy. Before meeting her, he despised marriage.

    In the early afternoon of the workday, Daria walked into the office and gave the project documents for Stephen to sign to send to the ounting department to pay the subcontractors.

    Looking at his gloomy face, she felt ufortable.

    ¡°Is the deputy general director free tonight? I just bought a car, let¡¯s go wash it.¡±

    ¡°When did you buy?¡± Stephen did not look up, his hands continuously scribbled on the paper.

    ¡°It was delivered this afternoon.¡±

    ¡°Buying a car is like buying a fish, right? Miss Daria is really rich.¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m not as rich as the deputy general director. You can even buy a yacht.¡±

    ¡°It seems like you like answering questions with me, huh? What time?¡±

    ¡°Seven o¡¯clock in the evening.¡±

    ¡°Okay.¡±

    Daria happily carried the documents down to the ounting room, her lips softly singing the melody of a song.

    In this ce, she only knew Dn and Stephen. Dn is like a thousand-year-old iceberg, asking him out is more difficult than going to heaven, so she can only invite Stephen.

    In the evening, Nancy took out the new white dress she bought in the afternoon, put it on, looked at herself in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

    She intends to wear it to thepany¡¯s year-end event.

    Because the new work is approaching its final chapters, she tries to stay awake a little longer.

    asionally she looked through the gap in the curtain and still saw Dn standing there. The white shirt makes him look thinner.

    She sighed, turned off the light, and sat still for a moment. A momentter, guessing he had left, she turned the light back on and continued typing.

    It wasn¡¯t untilte at night that she finished writing the new chapter. Out of habit, she looked through the gap again.

    Seeing that the car was still parked there, she was slightly surprised and opened the curtain to look down.

    Below, on the side of the road, at the sewer, there was a man with his head down, looking like a drunk.

    Nancy opened her eyes wide and looked. Realizing that this figure was familiar, she quickly ran down the stairs, opened the gate, and rushed to the other side of the street.

    ¡°Stephen, why are you here? Are you okay? Why do you drink so much alcohol?¡±

    Stephen was so drunk that he couldn¡¯t stand. He leaned back and forth and then threw himself at Nancy.

    She looked around but the street was empty, so she tried her best to help him cross the street and enter the house.

    After cing Stephen on the sofa, she quickly got him water to drink and then used a towel dipped in hot water to wipe his face.

    Stephen grabbed her hand tightly, his eyes were bloodshot.

    ¡°Nancy, I¡­ I like¡­¡±

    Before he finished speaking, he fell onto the sofa and closed his eyes. Nancy quickly used a pillow to block his back so he could lie on his side because she was afraid he would choke.

    All night long, she didn¡¯t dare go back to the bedroom, so she just sat and watched. Finally, she was so tired that she fell asleep on the sofa.

    When the morning light shined through the ss window, Stephen woke up, his head hurt like he had been hit with a hammer.

    Seeing the girl of his dreams standing in front of him, he was startled and quickly stood up.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°Nancy, why are you at my house?¡±

    ¡°Deputy general manager, you drank too much alcohol and lost your memory, right? I just made a ss of lemonade for you. Wash your face then drink.¡±

    After finishing speaking, Nancy turned around and went to the kitchen, quickly making an egg and vegetable roll sandwich.

    Stephen leisurely followed her and stood against the wall, looking at her. He doesn¡¯t remember how he came here.

    Yesterday, after going to dinner and drinking some wine with Daria, he returned.

    On the way home, he was so sad that he stopped at a bar, intending to drink some wine to ease his sadness. But the more drunk he got, the more sad he became. And when he was too sad, he missed Nancy, so he drove here.

    After washing his face, he looked at himself in the mirror and was extremely dissatisfied. He let the girl he liked see his worthless appearance.

    He didn¡¯t know if he said something that shouldn¡¯t have been said yesterday or not.

    Holding a sandwich in his hand, he ate while secretly looking at Nancy. Seeing that she was still very natural, he felt somewhat reassured.

    ¡°Yesterday you said you liked¡­¡± Nancy spoke up.

    ¡°Huh? I said I like¡­¡± Stephen looked scared.

    ¡°When you said that, you fainted so I didn¡¯t know.¡± Sheughed.

    ¡°Ah. It¡¯s just a habit, when I¡¯m drunk I like to drink ice water.¡± He smiled wryly.

    ¡°Are you so drunk that it¡¯s be a habit? Stephen, it¡¯s not good to drink too much alcohol. It¡¯s too dangerous to drive when you¡¯re drunk.¡±

    ¡°I made you worry, I¡¯m sorry, next time I will restrain myself.¡±

 Chapter 40

    After eating, Stephen drove Nancy to thepany, dropped her off at the gate, and then ran straight home to take a shower.

    This afternoon he had to follow the city¡¯s inspection team to survey the quality of the projects, so in the deputy general director¡¯s office now there was only Daria.

    She quickly prepared the documents and then walked to the president¡¯s room, presented them to him as well as reported everything.

    After reviewing the adjusted design drawings of the Sunny House Hotel and restaurantplex, Dn nodded with satisfaction.

    ¡°Stephen handed over the camera system to MSIpany for instation, right?¡±

    ¡°Yes, initially they designed three hundred cameras, but the deputy general director forced them to adjust and remove some of them.¡±

    ¡°They are a business, they have to sell as much product as possible. If we see inadequacies, we ask them to fix them. Previously, in the conference center project, the subcontractor designed a speaker every five meters.¡±

    Dariaughed softly. She feels this job is interesting.

    In the morning, she stood on the high floor and looked down and saw Nancying out of Stephen¡¯s car. She was a bit confused, not knowing whose lover Nancy was.

    Not only Daria but many other employees also have the same thought. However, the female protagonist has no time to pay attention to the gossip surrounding her.

    All morning, Nancy and Donna were busy writing invitation cards to send torge and small partners of Global Group.

    In the afternoon, the two girls were busy running to the conference center to supervise the final work to prepare for the year-end event.

    By the end of the day, everything is done.

    Because it waste, the two girls went to a roadside restaurant to have dinner.

    When they were about to take a taxi home, Daniel¡¯s supercar parked in front of them. He lowered the windshield, revealing his face, which was half covered by expensive fashion sses.

    ¡°Mr. Daniel.¡± Donna shouted.

    ¡°Can you lower your voice a little? Are you afraid the road is not congested enough?¡± Daniel asked humorously.

    Nancy felt as if she had received help from God. She was about to go look for Daniel when he appeared before her.

    Today, Daniel turned into a good guy. He drove Donna to the rented house and then turned around to take Nancy home.

    Just now, when he left the filming crew, he was in a bad mood so he drove rambling on the road and identally saw someone he knew so he pulled over.

    Daniel looked in the rearview mirror and saw the girl fidgeting as if she was about to say something, so he asked first.

    Nancy told him the beginning and the end of her intention to ask for help.

    ¡°That¡¯s what thepany¡¯s union has to do. Are you feuding with the president?¡±

    ¡°What do you think I can do to make enemies with that old man?¡±

    ¡°Old man? Is the president of Global Group very old?¡±

    ¡°Yes, both old and obnoxious.¡±

    In the end, Daniel agreed to have dinner with Edana, but on the condition that Nancy was with him so that if he was caught by the paparazzi, he would have a reason to exin.

    Finally, the night of the year-end event has arrived. At exactly seven o¡¯clock in the evening, a convoy of luxury cars brought guests who were stars, high-ranking officials, and businessmen to the main gate of the convention center.

    Donna was extremely excited and admired when she saw many celebrities walking on the red carpet. Nancy was as excited as she was.

    The car door opened slightly, and Daniel elegantly in a white suit walked over to help Rosalind. The actress shines in a red fishtail dress from a famous foreign brand. The light from the camera shes continuously.

    Stephen and Lyle look like stars today, their hair slicked back makes them even more stylish and masculine.

    The female employees all admired and praised the two deputy general directors.

    Next, Wynn appeared, walking with Laura. Today, Laura wore an extremely elegant, tight-fitting pink strapless dress.

    The pair of stars upied all the lenses of the working reporters. Simply because both of them are newly famous and their names are hot.

    Wynn¡¯s baby face and white skin make even marrieddies fall in love with him, not to mention teenage fans.

    Wynn turned his eyes towards Mina, winking mischievously, making the young staff clutch their hearts and coo.

    Mina looked at his childish appearance and just nodded slightly and smiled.

    After the reception team guided the guests in and arranged their seats, therge screen on the stage began showing images of the group¡¯s activities over the past year.

    Just now, when Paul saw E walk in, he was already fascinated. He followed her every move and when he saw her sitting in the third row, he pretended to identally walk over and walk back and forth in front of her.

    ¡°Mr. Paul, where do you sit?¡±

    ¡°Ah, I¡¯m looking for a seat, is anyone sitting here yet?¡±

    ¡°I go alone. You can sit here.¡±

    He was happy when he heard what she said and quickly sat down. He could hear his heart beating loudly in his chest.

    All employees were given lucky draw tickets, everyone was anxiously looking forward to it.

    The opening performance is performed by Wynn. Eye-catching choreography and vibrant music made the atmosphere in the hall burst into mes.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Wynn sang with all his heart, he put his feelings into every lyric, hoping that Mina would understand his feelings when she heard it, but it seemed like she didn¡¯t care.

    She sat below the stage and kept turning left and right, chatting excitedly with several old business partners the same age as her father.

    Donna took on the role of MC. Her elegant blue dress made her look graceful. She gently walked onto the stage to open the program and introduce the delegates and guests attending.

    Lyle, representing the board of directors of Global Group, stepped onto the stage to speak, sending gratitude to allpany employees, customers, and partners.

    When honoring employees and teams with outstanding achievements in the corporation over the past year, Stephen and Lyle took turns going on stage to present flowers and gifts.

 Chapter 41

    Nancy looked around but didn¡¯t see Dn anywhere. When she asked the people around, they said he had not appeared in previous years, leaving everything to the two deputy general directors.

    Amid the vibrant music, Stephen opened a bottle of champagne. Apuse rang out and the party officially began.

    The screen continued to show moments of the group¡¯s employees¡¯ activities over the past year.

    Music shows, fashion shows, and games are arranged alternately.

    Employees with good voices like Edana or Paul¡­ also signed up to perform.

    When the sweepstakes program for employees had just begun, Nancy identally dropped wine on her white dress, so she quickly went to the bathroom.

    Fortunately, this fabric is very easy to clean, so she wiped it with water for a while and the wine stains gradually faded.

    After cleaning her dress, she stepped out when she encountered a man wearing a suit. He looks very gentlemanly.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Nancy had just passed him when suddenly she was pulled back by him and he let out abusive words.

    ¡°Are you an employee of Global Corporation? Looks delicious.¡±

    ¡°This man, please have some dignity.¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t need dignity right now. I like women like you. How much money do you want a month?¡±

    Nancy saw that he was already tipsy so she didn¡¯t mind and quickly turned away.

    He didn¡¯t give up and pulled her back, pressing her against the wall. His breath filled with the smell of alcohol blew into her face, making her extremely ufortable, trying her best to push him away.

    Suddenly an arm reached out, grabbed him, and pulled him back.

    Nancy looked up in shock and saw that the man standing in front of her was Dn.

    ¡°This is not a red light district. If you¡¯re horny, go somewhere else and find someone.¡±

    ¡°This bastard, who are you?  Dare to meddle in my affairs, you don¡¯t want to live anymore, right?¡±

    Dn didn¡¯t answer him, took Nancy¡¯s hand, and led her away.

    The man was furious, looked around, then ran into the bathroom, took out a mop, and rushed towards them.

    Nancy heard footsteps and turned around to look, but it was already toote. Dn pulled her forward and hugged her to protect her.

    The force of the blow was so strong that she heard the sound of impact between the mop and his back.

    The man aggressively raised his hand again, but Dn quickly grabbed the mop, pulled him forward, and punched him in the face. Then Dn kicked him in the stomach a few more times.

    When the man copsed, Dn was no better. His back hurt so much that he couldn¡¯t bear it, his steps were unsteady.

    Nancy panicked and ran to hold him.

    ¡°President, are you ok? Let me go call someone.¡±

    ¡°Don¡¯t cause trouble. No one knows I¡¯m here.  This matter should not be known to many people.¡±

    ¡°I¡¯ll take you to the room first and then call Stephen.¡±

    Dn gritted his teeth and nodded. Nancy quickly helped him to the break room area. Luckily, at this time everyone was excitedly waiting for the draw so no one was loitering outside.

    Nancy¡¯s high heels began to betray their owner. Just as she had helped Dn into the room and was helping him sit down, she slipped and fell backward onto the bed.

    Reflexively, she grabbed his hand to steady herself, but in the end, she pulled him down with her.

    This situation is so strange, if anyone else saw it, she would lose her face. If people spread rumors, she¡¯s afraid she won¡¯t be able to get married.

    Thinking so, she quickly reached out and pushed his shoulder away.

    ¡°Don¡¯t move, I¡¯m in pain.¡± Dn frowned.

    ¡°President, where do you hurt? If I don¡¯t go, how can I call someone to help you?¡± Nancy was almost about to cry.

    Outside, Stephen hurriedly walked along the hallway, his eyes roaming like he was roasting peanuts, constantly observing every corner.

    Just now, when Donna invited Stephen to draw ten winning tickets and give prizes to the first ten lucky employees, he saw Nancy get up to leave and Nn also followed behind her.

    So he quickly drew lots and gave gifts at the speed of light.

    When it was the turn of thest three employees, he let go of the gifts before they reached them, causing all the gifts to fall to the floor, but he let them pick them up themselves and quickly chased after her.

    When he entered the bathroom, he saw Nn rolling around like a turkey, crawling on the floor.

    Stephen grabbed the guy¡¯s neck and asked him. When he heard that Nancy had been taken away by a man, he called her but she did not pick up, so he immediately went to find her.

    When the door of the room opened slightly, Stephen saw a man and a woman, the man lying on top of the woman, the woman lying below the man. As a result, he stood still for several seconds.

    ¡°Stephen, help me, the president is about to faint.¡± Nancy¡¯s tears were streaming down.

    ¡°Nancy, please wait a moment.¡± After saying that, Stephen closed the door and ran away.

    ¡°Huh?¡±

    Nancy was bewildered and cried. She thought Stephen would rush over and help her immediately.

    Dn was in so much pain that he sweated. Nancy felt each drop of his sweat falling, wetting her neck and hair.

    She tried to ask questions continuously. At first, Dn answered, but by this time he had fainted and did not reply.

    In front of the room door, Stephen trembled and took out the phone to call Daria and Paul.

    Paul was sitting with E, looking up to watch Lyle convey the message he wanted to send in the new year to allpany employees when the phone in his pocket vibrated repeatedly.

    As soon as he heard Stephen¡¯s announcement, he jumped up in panic and ran straight, making E sitting next to him bewildered and not understanding why.

    Paul ran like a rocket. For many years, Dn had note to these events. This year he suddenly changed his mind and came quietly without telling his assistant.

    Now something happened to Dn, so Paul is worried that if his boss dies, he will probably have to go to his boss¡¯s house and kneel and beg Cam to spare his life. He couldn¡¯t use himself as a substitute for her son.

 Chapter 42

    After receiving the news, Daria quickly contacted the nearest hospital, telling them to immediately send an ambnce.

    She clearly understood that Dn¡¯s body had been damaged and could not withstand strong impacts, otherwise the consequences would be difficult to predict.

    That year, Professor Andrew and Daria went to the city¡¯s medical and pharmaceutical university to carry out the annual student exchange program. While they were visiting the hospital, doctors there received Dn¡¯s emergency case.

    Realizing that the situation was serious, Andrew offered to let him perform this surgery and she was his assistant.

    After sessfully saving Dn¡¯s life, Andrew proposed to his family and the hospital to transfer him to country A to continue performing surgery on his entire deformed and severely burned face.

    Dn¡¯s bloody appearance at that time still haunts Daria every time she remembers it.

    The door opened again, and Daria, Paul, and Stephen quickly entered, followed by a team of medical staff.

    They lifted Dn, brought him out on a stretcher, and quickly moved to the back gate of the convention center.

    Stephen saw Nancy¡¯s disheveled, panic-stricken appearance and quickly took off his vest, draped it over her shoulders, helped her to the gate to wait, and rushed to the parking lot to get his car.

    Nancy stood and looked after the ambnce. Her heart was pounding and her legs were shaking.

    She thought that if Dn died, she would be an enemy of the Global corporation.

    At this time, the entertainment program performed by thepany¡¯s employees closed the event.

    Next was taking souvenir photos, giving thank-you gifts to the guests, and seeing them off to the car.

    Stephen drove Nancy home. He saw that she was still scared so he immediately spoke to reassure her.

    ¡°Don¡¯t worry too much, Daria is a very good doctor, and Dn will be fine.¡±

    ¡°Please take me to the hospital. I don¡¯t feel secure about him.¡±

    ¡°You won¡¯t be able to meet Dn when you get there, you can only wait outside.¡±

    ¡°Because he protected me, he was beaten by that guy. Why was he already unconscious after only being beaten once? Is he made of paper?¡± Nancy said while crying.

    Stephen looked at her, sighed, and reached out to pat her back tofort her. He thought that with Dn¡¯s problematic body, he was lucky to get hit by one stick, but if he got hit a few more sticks, he would probably die or be disabled.

    ¡°Go inside. I have to go to the hospital. If I have any information, I will let you know.¡±

    ¡°Yes.¡±

    She took off his vest and returned it to him, then opened the gate and entered.

    The car quickly drove away.

    The quiet night surrounds everywhere. Nancy looked up at the steeple of the church in the distance and sped her hands together to pray that nothing would happen to Dn.

    After many years, this was the first time she cried bitterly because she was worried about a man other than Nathan. Maybe she doesn¡¯t even realize it.

    At the same time, in front of the convention center gate, Lyle was seeing off guests when he received a call from Stephen, so he quickly handed over the task to Mina and immediately drove to the city hospital.

    Mina was shocked, not knowing what had happened that made her boss run so quickly that his shoes fell off, but she still agreed.

    Rosalind also hurriedly ran to the parking lot when she heard Lyle and Stephen¡¯s phone conversation.

    ¡°Alisa, quickly take me to the city hospital.¡±

    ¡°Why did youe to the hospital? Where do you have pain?¡± Alisa was surprised.

    ¡°No, go quickly.¡±

    When Alisa heard Rosalind¡¯s urging, she quickly drove out and ran towards the hospital even though she didn¡¯t understand anything.

    ¡°Hurry up, sister.¡± Rosalind¡¯s voice sounded urgent.

    ¡°I¡¯m trying, but I have to ensure safety.¡±

    While Rosalind sped her hands and prayed for Dn¡¯s safety, in front of the emergency room door, Stephen impatiently walked back and forth, while Paul sat in one ce, his hands clutching his knees.

    After Lyle parked the car, he quickly ran in.

    ¡°How¡¯s it going?¡±

    ¡°They haven¡¯te out yet, Daria is also in there.¡± Stephen answered.

    As soon as Alisa parked the car, Rosalind quickly jumped out and quickly ran in. Seeing three men staring at the door, she worriedly approached.

    ¡°How is he? Is he okay?¡±

    ¡°The doctor hasn¡¯te out yet so we don¡¯t know anymore.¡± Stephen answered.

    Stephen has met Rosalind many times in country A but she does not know him.

    While he was studying graduate school in photography here, Neil and Elysia still regrly visited him every year.

    During a general health check, Neil identally met Cam who was taking Dn to the hospital at Professor Andrew¡¯s request.

    Knowing the situation of his former ssmate, he offered financial help to revive the Southernpany and pay for her son¡¯s treatment fees.

    When Dn¡¯s health was temporarily stable, Cam returned to running thepany when Neil called and told Stephen to go to the hospital on his behalf to visit his ssmate¡¯s son who was being treated.

    Stephen obeyed his father¡¯s orders and often visited the hospital. Since then, he has be close to Dn and got to know Daria.

    At night, Dn never let Rosalind into his room, but Stephen was busy with school so he only visited him at night.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    He always saw Rosalind sitting on the bench on the hospital grounds untilte at night before leaving.

    A momentter, Daria came back out. Rosalind quickly wiped away her tears and rushed in front of Daria with everyone.

    ¡°He has fractured ribs, and his lungs are also injured, he is being given oxygen, but fortunately, it is not too serious. The patient needs to rest, so for the time being, please don¡¯te in and bother him. I will be by his side.¡± Daria said.

    ¡°Damn Nn, let¡¯s see how I handle him.¡± Stephen spoke up angrily.

 Chapter 43

    Waiting until eleven o¡¯clock at night, Lyle called Cam, saying that Dn was so drunk that he had to sleep at his house so she wouldn¡¯t worry.

    Lyle discussed with everyone that tomorrow when Dn woke up, he would call Cam and lie that he was on a sudden business trip for a week and ask Paul to go to Dn¡¯s house to get some clothes for him.

    Lyle guessed that that time would be enough for Dn to recover.

    Everyone left one by one. Stephen took out his phone and texted Nancy, informing her that Dn was not seriously injured. Coming to the main door, he looked up at the night sky and sighed.

    ¡°Perhaps he loves you, what about you, Nancy? Are you crying because he got hurt while protecting you or is there some other reason?¡±

    As soon as it was dawn, Dn woke up. He reached out to take off the oxygen mask and tried to sit up.

    Daria walked in, saw him, and immediately raised her voice.

    ¡°Don¡¯t you know that you are a fragilemodity? Do I need to put a warning sticker on you?¡±

    ¡°Probably not necessary.¡± Dn answered.

    ¡°Congrattions on being able to let go of the past. Please stay here and monitor for a few more days. When your assistantes in, I¡¯ll leave.¡±

    ¡°Um.¡±

    He nodded slightly. He has never let go of the past. To be precise, he didn¡¯t want to let go, he couldn¡¯t let go. When what had belonged to him since childhood suddenly disappeared, he couldn¡¯t ept it.

    ording to Lyle¡¯s scenario, Dn called Cam to tell her that he had an unexpected business trip to province C and would send Paul to his house to get some clothes.

    After E listened to Paul exin the reason why he hurriedly left the event yesterday, this morning, she went to the hospital to visit Dn before heading back to province C.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    After a few minutes of chatting with the president, she asked permission to leave because she was afraid of making him tired.

    ¡°If youe to the city one day, please call me, and let¡¯s have coffee together.¡± Paul felt regretful as he saw E out to the car.

    ¡°Okay, Ie here often, I will often bother you.¡± She smiled happily.

    Paul stood and watched the car gradually disappear. He saw that she was getting younger and more beautiful than when they first met.

    Although the leader is not present, work at Global Group still goes on normally.

    None of the employees knew that their president had turned into a hero to save the beauty and then had to be hospitalized.

    Nancy knew that Dn¡¯s body was nothing to worry about, so she felt secure in her heart.

    When lunchtime came, Stephen still went down to the cafeteria to eat with her as usual. He chewed while looking at her.

    ¡°Do you want to visit him? I¡¯ll take you away.¡±

    ¡°No. He¡¯s already okay.¡± Nancy replied, still not looking up.

    Stephen didn¡¯t ask anything more, bent down, and continued eating. Nancy secretly looked at him. When she remembered what happened yesterday when she cried in front of him, she felt a bit embarrassed.

    In the early afternoon, Wynn finished filming themercial and drove to the hospital to visit the patient.

    Yesterday when Wynn heard Lyle say that Dn was beaten by a man and had to be hospitalized because he protected Nancy, Wynn immediately asked about his brother¡¯s rtionship with Nancy and his brother told him that they were just colleagues and superiors. So he felt both light and heavy in his heart.

    Wynn feels relieved because he is assured that Dn and Lyle will not fight over Nancy. And he felt heavy because he was worried Lyle would love Rosalind.

    His brother kept defending her, even though she did something shocking, he still defended her and kept it a secret.

    He doesn¡¯t want to have a sister-inw like that at all. Furthermore, Rosalind loves Dn. If she fell in love with Lyle because she didn¡¯t have Dn¡¯s love, then his brother would be like a substitute. If so, how could Lyle be happy?

    ¡°Why don¡¯t you rest so you can go sing tonight? What do youe here for?¡± Dn asked as soon as he saw Wynn¡¯s face.

    ¡°I care about you so I went to visit you, why are you so harsh?¡±

    After finishing speaking, Wynn came and sat cross-legged on the chair, reaching for the bag of fruit that E bought in the morning, peeling the fruits, and eating them deliciously.

    When there were only two apples left, he stood up to leave. If there was room in his stomach, there would be only one bag left.

    As he drove slowly towards the gate, out of nowhere, countless people rushed towards him, holding banners and pictures, shouting jubntly.

    ¡°Wynn, can you get out of the car?¡± The girls spoke up simultaneously.

    ¡°Wynn, pleasee out so we can meet.¡± The group of female students still wearing uniforms shouted.

    ¡°Wynn, could you please give me an autograph for my niece?¡± An elderly woman spoke up.

    Wynn didn¡¯t hear anything they said, only saw their moving mouths. He forgot that he was famous so he just went out with his bare face without wearing a scarf or hat.

    A few people in the hospital saw him a while ago so they spread the news, and he was discovered.

    He quickly took out his phone and called Mina to send someone to rescue him.

    About ten minutester, dozens of bodyguards came running, dispersing the crowd, and opening the way for him to drive away.

    As soon as he returned to thepany, Mina stopped him and yelled at him.

    ¡°You should pay attention to your current status, it¡¯s not like in the past, what should you do if you meet crazy fans and they smash the car windows to see you?¡±

    ¡°Sister, I temporarily forgot that I was famous. Next time I will be careful. Don¡¯t be angry anymore.¡±

    Mina red at Wynn then turned away. He sadly looked after her. He felt extremely sad because he had made her angry.

    It seems that the road to bring her home with him is still very far away. He was worried that if he said something from the bottom of his heart, she would scold him.

    He wished he was a few years older than her or the same age as her because being younger than her made him feel somewhat inferior.

 Chapter 44

    Dusk fell. After work, on the way home, Nancy stopped by the supermarket to buy some grapes and apples, then took a taxi to the hospital.

    She went to the reception desk and asked for the hospital room where Dn was, then took the elevator to the fifth floor.

    But from afar, Nancy saw a girl in an elegant white dress, carrying a fruit basket, entering the hospital room.

    She still walked to the front of the room, stood still for a while, and then quietly left. She knew that person was Rosalind even though she was masked and wearing a hat.

    Rosalind put the fruit basket on the table and sat next to Dn. Just now, she had just finished filming and immediately ran here to visit him.

    ¡°Dn, you¡¯re nning on getting back together with her, right? You were injured because you protected her. Does she know you¡¯re Nathan yet?¡±

    ¡°Not yet.¡±Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    ¡°Are you nning to use this new identity to pursue her?¡±

    ¡°Right. So, don¡¯t say anything, don¡¯t ruin my ns.¡±

    ¡°n? What n?¡±

    ¡°Take revenge.¡±

    ¡°Take revenge?¡±

    Rosalind looked at Dn in shock. She felt confused and somewhat frightened.

    He got out of bed, and walked to the ss window, looking into the distance.

    ¡°I tried to ovee everything just hoping to one day meet that person again and make her pay for what she did. Rosalind, do you know how deep my hatred for the person who turned me into a half-human, half-demon is?¡±

    ¡°What are you nning on doing?¡±

    ¡°Approach, sacrifice, make her love me deeply, then let her experience the feeling of being abandoned, betrayed, and then not even having a job to support herself.¡±

    Dn did not know that the words he said made Rosalind extremely scared. She quickly found an excuse to leave. If she stayed, she was afraid that he would see her ufortable appearance.

    Her legs were shaking. As soon as she left the room, she took a few steps and fell. A nurse passing by saw her and ran to help her up.

    Rosalind waved her hand and continued toward the elevator.

    She always worried that one day Dn would know the truth. He is no longer the gentle Nathan of the past, he is now cold-blooded and heartless.

    For many years now, she has often dreamed about the dream of him discovering everything and taking out all his resentment on her. To be able to sleep peacefully, she has to take sedatives every night.

    Alisa was extremely worried when she saw that all the way home, Rosalind looked like a lifeless person, her eyes staring nkly at both sides of the road.

    ¡°Rosalind, do you want to eat anything?¡±

    ¡°No, take me home.¡±

    At night, Paul carried the porridge into the hospital room, carefully poured it into a bowl, and gave it to Dn. He said it was cooked by Daria.

    Dn felt sad. All day long, he waited for Nancy to visit him and hoped she would cook him a bowl of hot porridge, hoping she would worry and care for him.

    Every time the knock on the door rang, he was secretly excited and then disappointed.

    The city hospital is extremely quiet at night. Dn walked out onto the balcony and stood looking into the distance.

    Countless lights were strung everywhere, the wind blew clouds to obscure thete moonlight. He misses Nancy very much. The feeling of loneliness and emptiness rushed back into his heart.

    The words he told Rosalind were lies. He feels he has a weakness. He is afraid of losing the person he loves again.

    He had to say that to make Rosalind keep this secret for him.

    He nned to slowly let Nancy know everything after getting married. Once they became husband and wife, she would certainly sympathize with him more easily.

    All day today, because he missed her so much, he had to log into thepany¡¯s surveince camera system with his phone to see her.

    At the same time, Nancy also pushed open the door and walked out to the balcony. Her eyes turned towards the gate, where Dn often stood and looked up.

    The gentle breeze blowing through the porch made her feel as lonely as the moon above.

    Both of them did not know that at this moment, the two deputy general directors were going to the discotheque to carry out their revenge n.

    Amidst the bustling, vibrant music amidst the colorful space of LED lights and hot dancers, Stephen caressed the ss of wine in his hand and looked around for a while.

    When two beautiful girls saw him and Lyle, they quickly approached him and started a conversation to get acquainted.

    ¡°Hey handsome guy, why are you so sad? Come dance with us.¡±

    Stephen saw Nn just mingling with the crowd of people jumping around, he smiled and nodded.

    He and Lyle quickly stood up, put on their hats, pulled them to cover half their faces, then grabbed the two girls¡¯ hands and pulled them away.

    Lyle and Stephen deliberately approached Nn¡¯s group of people and then pretended to be drunk and bumped into him.

    The first few times, Nn didn¡¯t mind, but when he realized that these two guys were intentionally bumping into him repeatedly, he got angry.

    ¡°Crazy guy, do you want to mess with me?¡±

    ¡°Sorry, they¡¯re too drunk.¡± One of the two girls dancing with them spoke up.

    ¡°Right. I want to mess with you. So what?¡± Stephen rushed forward and pushed Nn¡¯s chest.

    ¡°Damned.¡± Nn roared.

    As he finished speaking, he and the young men apanying him rushed forward simultaneously. The dancing crowd panicked and dispersed, leaving a wide space in the middle.

    The dance hall now turns into a ring.

    Stephen and Lyle are both karate masters, one with a 5th-degree ck belt, and the other with a 6th-degree ck belt, so Nn¡¯s group of young boys who only know how to eat and y are not their opponents.

 Chapter 45

    Nn had a bit of alcohol in him so he was very aggressive. He was knocked down several times but he still rushed at them. When he was too exhausted, he screamed.

    ¡°You bastard, do you know who I am?¡±

    ¡°Oh, who are you?¡± Stephen said sarcastically.

    ¡°I¡¯m Nn, and my father is Michael, president of AS Group.¡±

    ¡°It turns out you are Michael¡¯s son. You are an ambare or a guava, but you think you are an apple or a grape.¡± Stephen looked at Lyle andughed.

    After Stephen finished speaking, he took off his hat and walked closer to Nn.

    ¡°Look, who am I?¡±

    ¡°Who are you?¡± Nn saw Stephen approaching so he crawled backwards.

    ¡°Yesterday you went to Global Group on behalf of your father to attend a party, but where were your eyes? Night and day you¡¯re just busy having fun and debauchery. Your family is so unfortunate.¡±

    At this time, the discotheque¡¯s security guard called the police, so everyone was picked up in a public service vehicle and taken to the police station.

    Because the station chief realized that they were all famous businessmen, he only forced them to write a report of criticism, reconcile, and ask them to call their rtives to bail them out.

    Of course, Nn didn¡¯t dare call his father. He asked his distant cousin to bail him out, and Stephen and Lyle asked Paul.

    Paul was standing by Dn, and when he heard the news, he ran away. After finishing everything, he quickly returned to his boss¡¯s side.

    The night ends, and the dayes. As soon as the rm clock rang, Dn quickly woke up, brushed his teeth, washed his face, changed clothes, and then asked Paul to take him to thepany.

    He feels he is healthy again. Furthermore, he missed Nancy so much that he couldn¡¯t bear it anymore. One day without seeing her in person makes it difficult for him to breathe.

    The information that the two deputy general managers went out and started a fight through Paul¡¯s mouth reached Dn¡¯s ears, so when he arrived at thepany, he immediately called the two of them to his office.

    Dn could sympathize with Stephen causing trouble, but he did not expect that a calm and serious person like Lyle would also join Stephen in causing trouble.

    ¡°Two deputy general directors of Global Corporation used force against their partners.¡± Dn spoke up.

    ¡°We vent your anger on your behalf.¡± Stephen replied.

    ¡°I see you¡¯re more angry than me.  I heard Nn¡¯s injuries were not minor. You are also very evil.¡± Dn crossed his arms on the desk and looked at him.

    ¡°For that kind of tiger, leopard, fox, or weasel, we have to use force to make him know his crime. Otherwise, what are you going to do?¡±

    ¡°Sealing the AS Group.¡± Dn answered briefly.

    ¡°You say we are evil, but let¡¯s see who is more evil.¡± Stephen shook his head slightly.

    After they all left, Dn quickly took out his phone and found Nancy¡¯s phone number.

    She was working hard when his short message e to my room¡± appeared on the phone screen, making her feel as weak as a t tire.

    Although she wanted to meet him to ask about him and thank him, she didn¡¯t want to have anything to do with him anymore.

    Taking a deep breath, Nancy straightened her back and went up to the eighth floor. When she arrived, after knocking twice, she boldly pushed the door open and entered.

    As soon as she closed the door and turned around, Dn pressed her against the door, his arms on both sides of her, holding her in the middle, his eyes looking at her filled with affection.

    ¡°Cold-blooded girl, you didn¡¯t even set foot in the hospital to visit me.¡±

    ¡°I heard you had nothing to worry about, so I didn¡¯te.¡± She turned her face away, avoiding his amorous eyes.

    ¡°I am a businessman so I do not incur losses. I took a hit for you, you should repay me, right?¡±

    ¡°Repay? How do you want me to repay you? Or let¡¯s go eat sweet soup.¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t want to eat sweet soup, I want¡­¡±

    Dn said as he leaned down, their faces getting closer and closer. Nancy felt like her heart was about to jump out.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.

    She was about to bend down and run away when the door was suddenly pushed open. Then her forehead hit his lips hard.

    Paul held a stack of documents in his hand and stood frozen when he saw his boss¡¯s lips bleeding and the editor next to him¡¯s face turning pale.

    Nancy quickly bowed and ran out of the room. Dn wiped the blood from his mouth with his hand and walked back to his seat.

    Paul gingerly walked over and ced the document on the desk, his eyes flickering to observe his boss¡¯s expression.

    ¡°Wazzup?¡±

    ¡°No, I just gave you the documents to sign.¡±

    After speaking, Paul went to the sofa and waited. He secretly thought that the future wife of the president of Global Group would be a violent person.

    He felt that his boss was so pitiful. His boss had just been discharged from the hospital when he was injured again, a new wound on top of an old one.

    He didn¡¯t know that he had just ruined Dn¡¯s sweet moment.

    Nancy returned to the editing room with her legs still shaking. She kept typing incorrectly.

    Initially, she nned to go upstairs to meet Dn and ask how his health was, but she couldn¡¯t ask any questions and she made him bleed.

    She sighed, thinking that if this kept going, one day she would get heart disease and die.

    Another spring hase, just like previous years, Nancy came to Jolie and her husband¡¯s house to celebrate the New Year with their family.

    The mountains with tea forests sprouting green shoots after a winter covered in clouds and frost look extremely pleasing to the eye.

 Chapter 46

    Nancy walked along the steep, zigzag path around the hillside, watching the spring rain falling, leaving countless drops of clear water on the tea buds, and feeling the aromatic scent of fresh tea leaves. She felt extremely peaceful.

    She temporarily left behind the luxurious, bustling city to find peace for her soul and left behind the lovesick man who still followed the habit of going to the small house every night.

    ¡°Do you like thisndscape?¡± Jolie spoke up.

    ¡°Um, I like it very much. Alex is right, this ce holds people back, and anyone who has been here will want toe back.¡± Nancy smiled slightly.

    ¡°But he never came back. At that time, I still wanted the two of you to be a couple.¡±

    ¡°We¡¯re just friends.¡±

    ¡°Did you go look for Nathan when you returned to the city? The Inte has just been posted to this hignd for a month now, so I just found out that Rosalind is still single.¡±

    ¡°He settled in country A and got married.¡± Nancy said in a sad voice.

    Jolie saw that Nancy had been in the city for a long time but was still alone and had no one to pick her up, so she felt sad.

    She sighed as she watched her friend. She did not know that there was a tail that followed Nancy every day.

    Even though Dn knew Nancy was away, he went to her house every night, otherwise he wouldn¡¯t be able to sleep.

    He felt like he was about to be like the rumor that he had been sick for a long time and had been hiding it. He just wished the holidays would pass quickly.

    The streets during the festival season were jubnt and bustling with fun and entertainment activities, but he felt it was all tasteless because he couldn¡¯t see Nancy.

    Cam went on a trip to the Y country with Neil, Elysia, and Stephen. Stephen didn¡¯t want to go, but because he took good photos, they forced him to go with them just to be a photographer.

    The two brothers Lyle and Wynn are no different from Dn, just staying at home and then going out to the streets and not going anywhere far.

    This year, Wynn¡¯s performance schedule was full so he couldn¡¯t return to country A to visit his parents. Lyle couldn¡¯t bear to leave him alone so he stayed here.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    Wynn took advantage of his brother¡¯s free time and asked to help him take pictures.

    Lyle followed his younger brother¡¯s wishes, carrying the camera and following him from inside the house to the yard, from the bed to the ground.

    ¡°Why do you want to take so many photos?¡± Lyle asked.

    ¡°I want to give them to fans.¡±

    ¡°Pay for it.¡±

    ¡°The deputy general director is so stingy. Okay, your younger brother is very rich now.¡±

    After a long vacation, the employees of Global Group bustled back to work, except Daniel.

    The movie in which he yed the main role aired on New Year¡¯s Eve and brought great sess. This is also thest film he acted in.

    Fans cried when they heard that he would retire from the entertainment industry.

    After liquidating the contract with Global Group, Daniel held a retirement party in his private vi located on the outskirts of the city.

    This ce is usually very deserted, with only a housekeeper and three or four women looking after and cleaning, but today it is extremely crowded and bustling.

    Everyone is rushing to prepare for Daniel¡¯s night party to be as grand and splendid as possible.

    Lyle represented the Global Group¡¯s board of directors to attend Daniel¡¯s farewell party, so Nancy hitched a ride in his car because Daniel personally gave her an invitation card.

    Furthermore, she needed him to have a meal with Edana, so she had no choice but toe.

    The space inside the luxurious vi makes people overwhelmed as soon as they enter and the guests are full of famous stars and famous businessmen.

    Emery is a tycoon in the banking industry, so he has extremely wide connections, and Daniel is the one who will continue his career, so countless people want to cling to him and gain his favor to ask for help.

    Because he saw that Donna did a very good job as MC for Global Group¡¯s year-end event program, Daniel asked her to help him.

    Of course, Donna agreed immediately because she was his big fan.

    ¡°Hello Deputy General Director, thank you foring.¡± Daniel walked over to shake Lyle¡¯s hand.

    ¡°Congrattions to the new president of LE Bank.¡± Lyle replied.

    ¡°My cousin is so beautiful today. Please eat and drink freely.¡±

    ¡°Thank you, cousin.¡±

    ¡°You and he act like cousins. Do you think so?¡± Lyle turned to Nancy and spoke softly.

    ¡°Youpliment me too much.¡± Sheughed.

    Rosalind stood looking at them from afar. Every time she saw Nancy, she remembered Dn¡¯s chilling words.

    Sometimes she felt sorry for that innocent girl, but everything had gone wrong, and there was nothing else she could do.

    She didn¡¯t pay attention to the other side, the emerging actress Laura was ring at her.

    Laura hates Rosalind very much. Daniel suddenly left the entertainment industry, causing Laura¡¯s opportunity to seduce him to no longer exist, so she immediately nned to find a way to approach him today.

    When everyone was drunk and no one noticed, Laura immediately put aphrodisiacs in a ss of wine and took it to Daniel.

    ¡°Mr. Daniel, please have a ss of wine with me to celebrate the sess of the movie. I feel very regretful because I no longer have the opportunity to cooperate with you.¡±

    ¡°You acted very well, try to improve in the future.¡±

    Daniel didn¡¯t think Laura was brave enough to dare put aphrodisiacs in the wine, so he drank the ss of wine in one gulp and then went to toast everyone.

    Laura smiled and quickly continued the y she directed. She walked to Rosalind¡¯s side and pretended to identally spill wine on Rosalind¡¯s pure white dress.

    ¡°Oh. I¡¯m sorry Miss Rosalind, I didn¡¯t do it on purpose.¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s okay, let me clean it, this fabric is very easy to clean.¡±

    ¡°Then let me help you.¡±

 Chapter 47

    Taking advantage of Rosalind going inside to flush, Laura quickly opened her bag, drew the unlock symbol on her phone, then texted Daniel, telling him to go to room number six on the first floor when the party ended, and then quickly deleted it.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    When Rosalind stepped out to dry her dress, Laura said her family had an urgent matter so she asked permission to leave first and went straight to the first floor.

    Poor Laura because when the party ended, Daniel got to the meeting ce and was immediately dizzy. He saw the number nine became a six, so he went into room number nine.

    Donna finished changing and opened the door when she saw a man suddenly barging in.

    ¡°Mr. Daniel.¡±

    Daniel felt hot inside. He knew he had taken the wrong aphrodisiac, so he quickly held Donna¡¯s hand and whispered.

    ¡°I¡¯m not okay. Please help me.¡±

    ¡°What¡¯s wrong with you?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m so hot¡­ someone put an aphrodisiac in the wine¡­ quickly call the housekeeper.¡±

    When Donna heard that, she panicked, quickly ran down the stairs, and screamed.

    Fortunately for Daniel, he went to the wrong room, otherwise his first time would have been stolen by a girl he did not love.

    Although Daniel is a bit aggressive, he is still a virgin. He always thought that he would not touch any other girl other than Rosalind.

    Laura waited for a long time but didn¡¯t see Daniel so she opened the door and looked out. When she saw the butler and servants running back and forth, making a fuss, she quickly sneaked down the stairs and left the vi.

    Because the number of employees of Global Group is quiterge, the trip must be divided into two periods, the beginning of the year and the middle of the year.

    Nancy and Edana arrived at the hot spring resort yesterday to arrange everything.

    Dn and Stephen both participated in this trip, so Lyle had to stay at thepany to sign documents and handle work.

    Initially, Wynn also registered to participate, but because he heard that Mina would not go, he immediately withdrew his name from the list.

    At exactly six o¡¯clock in the morning, the convoy of vehicles took the employees out of the city, and everyone¡¯sughter and chatter rang out along the way.

    Everyone was excited because they heard the news that the president was also participating in this trip. They all wanted to see the face of the mysterious leader.

    After lunch, everyone returned to their rooms to rest and prepare for the group game that would take ce in the afternoon.

    Since the day Nancy made Dn¡¯s lips bleed, he didn¡¯t bother her anymore, but every night he went to her house and stood there for several hours.

    This afternoon, when Edana introduced the president of Global Group to everyone, Nancy was noticed by everyone. In the past, there was a time when the employees witnessed the presidenting to sit at the dining table with her and Stephen.

    When the clock struck two o¡¯clock in the afternoon, the tour group moved to the emptynd behind the resort to participate in group games.

    The opening game is a tug-of-war game and Edana is the referee. After Edana divided everyone into two equally talented teams, Dn volunteered to lead team A.

    The employees of team B just knew the president so they were a bit scared because they heard rumors that he had a weird personality. They were afraid that if they did something wrong, they would be miserable.

    Everyone wanted to keep the bowl of rice for themselves, so they discussed it for a while. In the end, they agreed to let Nancy be the leader because, after all, she seemed to have known him before.

    Nancy couldn¡¯t talk back to them so she reluctantly agreed, after all, the minority had to obey the majority.

    But she didn¡¯t understand how Edana divided the team so that Stephen, Paul, and Daria were all on the same team with Dn.

    Furthermore, the rope used for tug-of-war also disappeared, so everyone had to hug each other and pull. She didn¡¯t know Dn had ordered Paul to steal it.

    As soon as Edana¡¯s scream ended, everyone tried to pull, everyone tried their best, but because they were hugged around the waist, everyone screamed in pain.

    Stephen was afraid of affecting Dn¡¯s fragile body, so he didn¡¯t dare hug him tightly. After a moment, his hand slipped, and Dn followed the momentum and flew straight toward Team B, causing both teams to fall to the ground, the person standing in front pressing on the person standing behind, like a domino effect.

    Nancy was motionless for a moment because, in broad daylight, the respected president was lying on top of her, his lips touching hers.

    When other employees saw this scene, their eyes turned into the letter A and their mouths turned into the letter O.

    Quickly calming down, Nancy reached out to push Dn away and then crawled up. Daria and Paul hurriedly ran to his side.

    ¡°President, are you ok?¡± Daria asked worriedly.

    ¡°I¡¯m okay. This game is very fun.¡± Dn said while winking at Nancy.

    Next, Edana poprized the rules of the game called the Shoe of a Thousand Miles. Two people share a pair of shoes made of a long wooden board and then move together to the finish line to get the ball as requested, then return to give the wooden shoes to the next two people.

    Nancy listened but thought her ears were ringing. The script changes all the time but why does she not know anything?

    This time, Dn was on the same team as her, and the staff continued to avoid pairing with him.

    After a while of pushing back and forth, Nancy paired up with Dn. She felt like a living sacrifice. The feeling of him being right behind her made her ufortable, every uneven step made him pounce on her.

    ¡°President, did you do it on purpose?¡±

    ¡°What are you talking about? I¡¯m ying very seriously.¡±

    ¡°I haven¡¯t seen you bothering metely. Turns out you¡¯ve been plotting this.¡±

    ¡°They¡¯re watching,e on.¡±

    On the other team, Stephen and Daria were no better than them. Because Stephen kept looking at Dn and Nancy, his steps were uneven with Daria, and he often fell into her, causing her to struggle to stay steady.

 Chapter 48

    Nancy returned to her seat and gave the two nks to the other couple. She thought she was about to go to heaven. She was indescribably happy.

    Next is the handkerchief drop game, but Edana gives a strange rule. Normally, the person whose handkerchief is dropped behind their back must hold the handkerchief and chase away the person who dropped the handkerchief, but she stiptes that they must chase the person sitting on their right, and the person who was caught had to be punished by kissing the person who caught them.

    When people wondered, she exined that she should change the game to make it different.

    And Edana showed off her arranging talent again. She forced men and women to sit alternately. Nancy sat right to Dn¡¯s right, Daria sat to his left, and Stephen sat in the opposite half of the circle.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.

    Paul was a good guy and volunteered to be the first to drop the handkerchief. He walked back and forth and then dropped the handkerchief right behind Dn.

    Nancy guessed that he and his boss had shaken hands, so she was extremely cautious. As soon as the handkerchief touched the ground, she quickly stood up and ran away as quickly as possible.

    Dn¡¯s legs were much longer than hers. Seeing that he was almost chasing her, she panicked, ran wildly, and rushed into the woods in front of her.

    Everyone looked at them in amazement.

    Donna saw that the president had already set his sights on Nancy, but she no longer felt that Nancy was pitiful, because this buffalo looked very stylish and handsome, not that old.

    Nancy ran for a while and was so tired that she couldn¡¯t continue running. Seeing a shadow in a white shirt chasing her, she quickly climbed up the tree and hid in the foliage.

    Dn walked back and forth for a while, then finally looked up. When he saw her sitting on a high branch, he panicked.

    ¡°What are you doing up there? Come down here quickly.¡±

    ¡°No. If you go away, I¡¯lle down.¡± Nancy shook her head vigorously.

    ¡°I won¡¯t arrest you. Now we go back to break up the game so everyone can rest and attend the dinner party.¡±

    ¡°Really?¡±

    ¡°Right.¡± He said as he threw the handkerchief on the ground.

    Taking a deep breath, Nancy slowly climbed down the tree. Just now, she was climbing as quickly as a monkey, but now she¡¯s afraid of heights.

    As soon as her feet touched the ground, her whole body trembled. Dn also breathed a sigh of relief.

    ¡°Are you afraid of kissing me?¡±

    ¡°You think I want to kiss you, huh?¡±

    ¡°Just now when we were ying tug of war¡­¡±

    ¡°It was an ident, it doesn¡¯t mean anything.¡±

    After saying that, Nancy quickly ran away. Outside, Edana had broken up the game, everyone was eager to go back to shower and prepare for the dance party in the evening.

    Stephen stood looking toward the forest for a while then quietly returned to his room. Daria saw his appearance and felt sad.

    But if she had to choose who to support, she would support Dn because, for her, Stephen has many opportunities, while Dn does not.

    If Dn misses this girl, she¡¯s afraid his whole life will forever be stuck in that tragic past.

    The dance party took ce in a sparkling space filled with electric light. Beautiful, radiant girls in colorful dresses slowly entered.

    Everyone heard rumors that they would draw lots to find a dance partner, so they were all excited because they didn¡¯t know who they would pair up with.

    All female employees are afraid to dance with the president because they¡¯re worried that if they step on his toes, they¡¯ll be miserable.

    However, they didn¡¯t need to draw lots because the couples¡¯ names were already written on the piece of paper and Edana just needed to read it out.

    When she read the names of two people, those two people proactively came forward, held hands, and stood aside.

    The reason given was that the organizers had already drawn lots for everyone, so they wrote down the names of the employees on paper to read quickly.

    Nancy hadn¡¯t heard Edana read her name yet, but she had already guessed the oue, which probably everyone could have guessed, not just her. She was the sacrificial victim.

    When Edana finished reading the paper, there was no one standing there anymore, only the two of them were left, so Dn quickly walked over, grabbed Nancy¡¯s hand, and pulled her away, helping Edana rx her mouth.

    Looking at her embarrassed face, he couldn¡¯t help butugh.

    ¡°What¡¯s up? You¡¯re not happy, huh?¡± Dn asked.

    ¡°I feel there is an agreement about the draw results.¡± Nancy replied.

    The music started, and each couple hugged each other and began to dance.

    Nancy didn¡¯t dare look at Dn¡¯s face. This man is normally already poison to women, but now that he¡¯s dressed like this, he¡¯s be extremely poisonous.

    ¡°You dance very well.¡±

    ¡°Of course, do you think Ie from the countryside and don¡¯t know anything? If you want clean vegetables, you¡¯re looking for the wrong person.¡±

    ¡°It¡¯s okay. I prefer vegetables sprayed with growth chemicals.¡±

    Nancy could only stay silent when she heard Dn speak. This man seems to be able to say whatever he wants.

    When the music slowed down, Dn¡¯s hand suddenly tightened around her waist and pulled her closer, he leaned down to whisper in her ear.

    ¡°You are very beautiful.¡±

    She got goosebumps when she heard what he said. Luckily at this time everyone simultaneously changed partners. Stephen let go of Daria¡¯s hand and called out.

    ¡°Dn.¡±

    Falling into Stephen¡¯s arms, Nancy felt much more secure, showing off all her dancing abilities, no longer awkward.

    The fun party continued untilte at night. The next day, people went shopping and walked around freely, and in the afternoon they returned to the city.

    As for Dn, he returned to the cityst night when he received news that Cam had to be hospitalized because of high blood pressure.
