“…” Come to think of it, my father was right as I was really gullible. So I said, “He is not a man of his
word. Do not plan to work for his company anymore!”
Anyway, I
“How childish you are! Your company had an agreement with his company. Either way, you’ll have to
wait until the contract expires before you cut ties with him. Furthermore, even if you denounce the
cooperation, your boss may not agree.”
“Whatever it is. If Eric continues to pester me to the point where I can’t stand working with him
anymore, you’ll have to help me pay the fine. Father.”
“Wow, that temper of yours… Since when did Eric say he’s going to give you trouble? Last night, he
personally came to our house just to explain the whole incident, so you don’t have to go so far as to
break the contract. Don’t be so stingy! Just apologize to him when you go to work, then everything will
be resolved.”
“I didn’t do anything wrong, so I won’t apologize! I’d rather pay the fine than apologize to him!”
“Who did you get that temper of yours from? You will run the entire company in the future. How will the
company survive with a leader who has a temperament like yours?” my father scolded.
“I will not apologize to Eric and I will certainly not enter his company again. I’d rather quit my job.”
“As you wish. If you want, you can always come and work with me. I can teach you a thing or two along
the way.” Surprisingly, my dad didn’t insist.
“About working at your company, maybe not anytime soon. I’ve been working hard for five years
without a day off. I would like to relax a little.”
I blurted it out without thinking. Seeing the sad expressions on my parents’ faces, I realized I had made
a slip of the tongue, so I jokingly explained. “I am joking! Don’t take it seriously!”
In the evening, my mother came to my room. “Lily, I talked to your father. If there’s a chance, invite
Carson to dinner.”
“What?” Surprised, I was scared for a moment. I never thought of bringing that idiot here. In fact, I
hoped Dad would never accept it, so we could get a divorce. “Mom, are you sure Dad means that?”
Seeing my shocked expression, my mom probably thought I was emotional, but I was actually feeling
the opposite. “Of course he meant it. His father said so himself. When Callie mentioned Carson just
now, her father noticed the strange expression on her face, and he was heartbroken.”
“There is no need to rush. We can talk about this another time.”
“What is wrong?” Confused, my mother looked at me.
“Mom, let me argue with Carson about this. He is currently not in Riverdale as he is away on business.”

“Okay, since your dad said there’s no need for you to feel uncomfortable about it. Also, if you want to
get some rest, you can just quit your job at any time. I’ve heard that Carson is quite capable of running
his company. In the future, if he can take over our company, you can be a full-time mother like me.”
“Mom, can we talk about this another day? I’m exhausted and I really need to rest right now.”
After leading my mother out of the room, I sighed as I sat down in the chair. Considering the current
situation, I really had to stick with the plan and speed things up.
In the evening, Isabella and I had arrived for cocktail party at young master Tyson’s house, which was
on the bank of Riverdale. Several luxury cars were seen parked outside the house. As soon as our car
stopped, someone came over and opened the door for us. “Ladies, welcome!”
Having attended such occasions for some years now, Isabella had to stop to say hello to people she
knew. As for

Since I hadn’t been to such occasions for a long time, I barely knew or recognized anyone, so I
managed to avoid the problem.
On our way to the main hall, there were many people gathered there, and among them were a large
number of prominent figures. Looking down the hall, I was looking for Dylan and wondered if he had
arrived. Just then, I heard someone panting. “Is it Camille Sanders? Wow! She is beautiful!”
