Meeting her puzzled eyes, Julian knew what Emily was thinking and smiled proudly, “What? You don’t believe me? If so, you can go back to the lab and have a look, or ask others.

“Emily, don’t be silly! The weaker can’t contend with the stronger. Do you think Seraphina can really bring you anything? She’s gone and she’s at ease now. Has she given you anything? Don’t you know she is flying first class now and is picked up by a Rolls-Royce at the airport? But what about you? You can only rent a dilapidated house like this with your mother, and now you go against me and are absent from work wilfully. How long can your wage savings last? One year, two years, or three to five months? And what about the future… Have you ever thought about it?

“Your contract will expire in two years. Before it expires, I’ll hold you back and refuse to approve your resignation. If you insist on leaving, then give me the liquidated damages! Emily, can you afford it?” Julian leaned back and smiled confidently as if he was sure of winning.

Hearing this, Emily lowered her head and said nothing.

What Julian said hit the point. His smile widened. “Emily, I’m actually quite tolerant of you. Think about it. You’ve been causing so much trouble lately. Which boss can tolerate you? Besides, why are you causing trouble? It’s between me and Seraphina. Does it have anything to do with you? It’s also a personal matter between me and her.

think it’s worth getting yourself involved in this matter?”

Do you

With that, Julian leaned forward and put an envelope on the table. “Take it for your recent hard work. If you take it, adjust your mood and come back to work. The company will put past grudges behind it and will treat you as usual.”

“Mr. Brown.” Slowly looking up, Emily pressed the envelope. “I will come back to work. But… I can’t take the money.”

Then she pushed the envelope back.

Julian’s smile froze on his face and his eyes darkened. “What do you mean?”

“Now that M

Mr. Brown has made it clear, I might as well say so. If you refuse to let me go and I can’t afford the

liquidated damages, I have no choice but to continue with my work. Yes, you are filthy rich. I can’t beat you, but I will work as usual. If you don’t pay me my salary accordingly and deduct it maliciously, I will also sue you. If you think it’s funny, just do it this way!”

Then Emily stood up and was about to leave.

Julian was stunned for a few seconds before he came to his senses and hurriedly turned

around. “Why did you do this?”

Emily stopped in her tracks.

“How long have you known Seraphina and how well do you know her? Vivi and I have been classmates with her for so many years. We know her better than you do. How can repay you for what you did to her? What’s good for you? Is it worth it for you to do so?” Julian’s eyes were full of contempt.

It was just stup id to be loyal to a friend or help others!

In this world, only benefits mattered!

“It doesn’t matter how she repays me. What matters is how you repay her!” Turning around, Emily looked at Julian and said, very well. How much did Seraphina do for you? How much did she give and what did she get? You threw mud at her and took away her painstaking efforts and fruits of labor. Why should I work for someone like you?”

>thers may not know it, but you and I know it

Emily looked down on Julian.

Julian could tell from her eyes.

Her gaze also aroused his

also aroused his anger. “Fine! Since you are so loyal, then you can die with her! Just wait and see!”

With that, Julian pushed her away and left first.

Emily stumbled and held the backrest with one hand to stand firmly.

She agreed to go back to work because Julian was right about at least one thing, and she couldn’t afford it.

If Prosperian Company couldn’t survive this time, her contract with Prosperian Company would naturally be terminated. But just now Julian made it clear that the problem was tackled. That was why he was so proud and arrogant.

If Emily continued to walk off the job, she couldn’t make any money. She needed money for the rent, utilities, and living expenses. It was really hard to live without

money.

She thought, I’d better go back to work. If Julian deducts my salary, I can sue him. Besides, I want to go back and see how they solved this problem.”

Emily knew the people in Prosperian Company very well. If they could solve the problem, it would not have been so messy before, and Julian wouldn’t want to keep her. In all walks of life, there were relatively few people in this industry, especially those with outstanding capabilities. That was why Prosperian Company depended so much

Could it be… Was Vivian really capable of this?

After talking with Julian on the phone, Vivian cried for a long time and fell asleep when she was tired. It was already after 5 p.m. when she woke up.

At the thought of the event tonight, she hurriedly got up, took a shower, and dressed

up.

In fact, Vivian had an advantage in appearance. She was gentle and charming and she was good at making use of her advantages. She looked charming and attractive, sol Julian was deeply captivated by her.

Yet, she cried in the afternoon, and now her eyes were a little swollen.

With a sigh, Vivian took out her eye shadow and covered her swollen eyes with dark colors. After the overall adjustment, she still looked gorgeous.

Putting down the cosmetic pencil, she applied the lipstick on her lips. Right at that moment, her stomach churned with nausea, which was almost uncontrollable.

Vivian quickly covered her mouth and rushed to the bathroom. She couldn’t help throwing up.

In fact, she didn’t vomit anything and most of it was bile. Yet, her stomach felt as if it were squeezed together.

After regaining strength, Vivian rubbed her lower abdomen with one hand and became more sure of her guess that she might really be pregnant.

She wasn’t sure about how she felt. She was neither happy nor unhappy.

If she was pregnant, Julian would definitely marry her. She could secure the position as Julian’s wife.

But… why wasn’t she as joyful as she expected?

Vivian had fantasized about it countless times, but when she was really close to it, she didn’t feel anything.

Seraphina didn’t care about Julian at all! Vivian had worked so hard and fought against Seraphina for so long, but she found that Seraphina cared less about Julian than those.

After all, Vivian had been through these days, she felt confused about her future. It

seemed that it was impossible for her to count on Julian and climb up the social ladder. To be exact, she felt that it was impossible at all.

Was it doomed for her to live such a plain and peaceful life like this?

The most important thing was, how long could this kind of life last? After all, it was precarious.

Vivian tightened her fingers on her lower abdomen and her heart sank.
