“No, no, no! Mr. Lennon, I can assure you that things like this would not happen, ever!

“The culprits of the crime must be Charles‘ subordinates!”

Mr. Schmidt tapped his chest as he guaranteed.

“If that’s so, sure thing, then.”

Sean Lennon nodded and stopped once he saw that things were different.

Mr. Schmidt sighed a long breath of relief in his heart.

“You! Take my car, send Mr. Lennon home.”

Mr. Schmidt immediately turned around and yelled out the door.

Sean was sent back by a private car.

It was almost like Sean went on a sightseeing trip at the government facility.

After Sean had left, everyone in the room had complicated feelings.

Especially the

“Friggin‘ awesome! This was friggin‘ awesome!”

The young man was sure that Sean was something.

He just did not expect that Sean was something so extraordinary.

young man that was briefly acquainted with Sean, he was dazzled.

4 pm in the afternoon.

At Quinn Corporation’s subbranch, where Willow Quinn was at.

Today, Willow did not have much work, so she had a rare early clock–out.

These few days, since the subbranch had gotten financial assistance from Quill Zimmer, all its

problems had been solved.

The cash flow was once again restored, making the atmosphere in the subbranch a refreshed,

revitalized one.

After Willow packed up her things, she left the office quickly and was about to head home.

“Hey, did you hear? The only reason why our company could overcome our difficulties so quickly was

all thanks to Young Master Zimmer!”

“Of course I’ve heard! Young Master Zimmer had been relentlessly pursuing our Director Quinn. Now

that Director Quinn has accepted his assistance, I think accepting Young Master Zimmer himself

should be next in line.”

“Didn’t Director Quinn have a fiancé? Y’know, that cripple.”

“What to do? He has no power, no money, so he would just have to watch his fiancée get taken away

by someone else.”

“You’re right! If I were Director Quinn, I’d choose fresh roses and beautiful bouquets, and not

choose to have to push a cripple around everywhere.”

The moment Willow walked out of her office, she had heard all this chatter immediately.

Once Willow was seen, the rest of the people shut up immediately and pretended that they were

packing up to head home.

Willow stood where she was for a few seconds as she gritted her teeth softly.

“Stop the nonsense and stick to your jobs.

“If you don’t wanna be here, just go over to HR to collect your last paychecks.”

Willow’s expression was icy cold as she spoke, lowering the heads of different employees along the

way.

It was hard to ignore such a cold, formidable aura.

Willow headed to the elevator alone and right after the elevator door closed, the iciness on her face

began to dissipate.

What had replaced that iciness, was a deep sense of helplessness, and a tinge of grievance.

No matter how strong and independent she presented herself before others, she was still just

a woman.

No one would be able to be totally unfazed when faced with gossip and slander.

Even if Willow wanted to retort, she had nothing she could say.

The two minutes alone in the elevator when she was done with work was Willow’s time to release her

emotions every day.

“Ding!”

When the elevator had reached the bottom floor, Willow walked out.

The familiar icy coldness was once again evident on her face.

“Yo, isn’t that Willow?”

The moment Willow stepped out of the company door, she heard a teasing voice from the side.

When she turned, she saw Simon and Faye Quinn coming down from Simon’s BMW.

“Yes?”

Willow stopped in her tracks and asked faintly.

“Haha, Grandma sent us to check the accounts of this subbranch.

“Since she did not just trust anyone, right Simon?”

Faye hugged her arms and smiled meaningfully.

“Of course!”

Simon was quick to agree.

“Check all you want.”

Willow was silent for a moment before she spoke and was about to leave.

“Stand right there, Willow Quinn!”

Faye was quick to rush forward as she blocked Willow in her stride.

She was extremely jealous of Willow and was so envious to the point she loathed Willow.

Quill Zimmer had actually booked the entire Riverleaf Lakeside Hotel to have a magnificently grand

proposal for Willow on the 9th, which was just around the corner!

Faye had been wanting to hook up with the rich man that was Quill Zimmer, but she did not expect to

lose to Willow. How was she ever going to accept defeat?

The hatred she had towards Willow in her heart was gradually increasing.

“Willow Quinn, don’t you think that since Young Master Zimmer fancies you then you can be

disrespectful before me.

“Even if you were to marry into the Zimmer family one day, you’d still be looked down upon!

“How dare you still accept Young Master Zimmer even when you have a fiancé? How absurd!”

Faye stood in Willow’s way as she mocked
