Entertainment
Cheryl came to the company with dark circles under her eyes. The news on the Internet mocking her dream of marrying into a wealthy family was overwhelming.
Cheryl felt as if the entire world was laughing at her. When she walked into the office and a janitor gave her a look. Cheryl was so sensitive that she felt like even the janitor was laughing at her.
“What are you looking at? Focus on cleaning your windows!” Cheryl snapped angrily, her tone filled with hostility.
The janitor quickly lowered her head and worked, not wanting to provoke Cheryl.
After Cheryl walked over, the two janitors whispered to each other.
“How dare she still be so arrogant? If I were her, I wouldn’t even want to go out. It’s really embarrassing to be rejected by a man in public
“That’s right. She went around promoting herself as the young mistress of the James family, but Mr. James didn’t admit it at all. He even clarified that they were just in a working relationship. What a joke.”
Cheryl walked straight into the CEO’s office.
In fact, Cheryl was not in the mood to come to the company at all, but her boss had personally asked her to come.
After Cheryl knocked a few times, the boss’s voice came from inside. “Please come in.”
Opening the office door, Cheryl walked in. “Mr. Martinez, you’re looking for me.”
“Have a seat.”
Cheryl sat in the chair opposite the desk and looked at the middle–aged man opposite her.
“Cheryl, looks like there’s really no hope for you and Mr. James to be together. However, Mr. James has specially instructed that you won’t lose your resources, and they’re all top–notch. These are a few major movies that the company has invested ip recently. Mr. James has reserved the female lead position for you and even signed you a few endorsements for top luxury goods…”
Cheryl gripped the hem of her dress tightly with both hands.
Cheryl knew Hackett’s intention. He wanted to use these resources to make it up to Cheryl
However, Cheryl did not want these! She did not have the ambition to pursue a career! She just wanted to be by Hackett’s side every day and be the enviable young mistress of the James family
Before the man could finish speaking, Cheryl stood up. “Mr. Machinez, please tell Hackett that I don’t need these. He knows what I want
With that, Cheryl turned around and left the office without, looking back.
Cheryl’s face was pale. She could not control her anger. She gritted her teeth and whispered, “Hackett, don’t think that I’ll give up on you obediently. I won’t. I want to be your woman. I have to
Cheryl’s fingers trembled as she took out her phone and dialed the man’s number.
Cheryl called for a long time, but no one picked up. Tears streained down her face, and a sense of humiliation welled up in her.

Hackett leaned back in his office chair with a cigarette between lus lips. The smoke lingered and blurred his handsome face.
Hackett lowered his eyes and saw that the phone on the table was vibrating, but he had no intention of answering it.
Instead of giving Cheryl the slightest hope, it was better to make her give up completely.
The phone vibrated for a long time before it finally stopped.
Hackett picked up his phone and dialed his secretary’s number. He ordered, “Don’t let Cheryl enter my office again.”
“Okay, Mr. James”
Since Hackett wanted to end it cleanly, he would completely withdraw from Cheryl’s life in the future. However, he would also secretly protect her.
Soon, nighrfell.
Valeria finished her work, stretched, and prepared to go home from work.
Valeria planned to cook fish for Alex tonight. She had promised him for a long time.
Valeria picked up her bag and turned off the office light. She walked out of the office and bumped into Keith.
“Are you working overtime? Why are you only leaving now?” Keith asked.
“Yes, I’m a little busy with work. I have to go back and make dinner for Alex. He’s been clamoring for fish. I have promised him for a long time? Valeria said with a smile.
Keith raised his wrist and looked at the time. “Do you want me to help? It’s quite troublesome to make fish. Besides, it’s late now. It will be faster if I help you.”
“There’s no need. I can do it. I’ve already tidied up the fish and placed it in the freezer when I left this morning. I just need to cook it when I get back.”
Valeria didn’t want to trouble Keith anymore, especially with Keith’s first crush’s return.
Seeing that Valeria had declined, Keith could not force her. He teased. “Are you avoiding me now? You don’t even let me interact with Alex anymore?”
Valeria was stunned for a moment before quickly denying it. “No, what are you thinking! I just don’t want to trouble–you. It’s not good to always take up your private time, I’ll treat you to a meal another day. I’ll cook personally, Although I’m not as good as you, I think my cooking is not bad.”
“Alright, then I’ll wait for your invitation. Keith raised his eyebrows slightly.
See you tomorrow. Valeria smiled and waved at Keith, She turned around and walked toward the elevator
Keith stared at the woman’s slender back with a deep gaze.
