Chapter 1
My fiancé, in order to ensure smoothly becoming the largest shareholder of the company, hoped that I would withdraw from the candidate selection and hand over the 5% of shares in my hand, promising to give me a wedding of the century afterwards.
I agreed, but the next day I saw his beloved Janet Sheppard posting a share transfer document.
The signatory at the bottom is my fiancé
I was stunned for two seconds, casually commenting, “We’ve already received the betrothal gifts, when are we having the wedding banquet.”
Janet broke down emotionally y and threatened to jump from the 22nd floor.
My fiancé, in order to please her, asked me to immediately delete the comment, publicly apologize to Janet, and give her three months‘ salary as compensation for mental distress.
Colleagues whispered to each other, all waiting to hear my joke,
I sneered and not only apologized publicly, but also voluntarily handed over the project at hand to Janet.
My fiancé was pleased to see how sensible I was and said, “At our wedding in half a month, I will definitely make you the center of attention and then reward you with a round–the–world honeymoon.”
But he didn’t know that from the moment he took back his shares, the wedding no longer existed.
The apology statement was just released, and within less than three minutes, the comments instantly reached 99.
Janet sent me a private message, moclding me, “Tamara Ruiz, besides meeting Peyton earlier and having slightly better luck than me, what do you have that can compare to me?”
“I just cried to him for a moment, and he immediately asked you to apologize to me,”
“Even if you have an engagement with him, it doesn’t matter. As long as I am unwilling, you still can’t get married,”
After that, she also boasted the news that her fiancé was going to take her out for a break, and attached a photo of the plane ticket to Whalca.
I was about to turn off the screen when a message popped up in the notification bar from Janet in the comments section: “Don’t say that about Ms. Ruiz, I also made a mistake.
In less than a minute, Janet’s fiancé immediately replied to her comment, “Don’t blame yourself for everything, this is clearly Tamara’s fault.” Colleagues also criticized me, saying that my apology letter was not an apology at all, and that it was full of dissatisfaction and sarcasm towards Janet between the lines.
Someone mentioned me, but I ignored it.
Not long after,
r, the phone call from the fiancé asking for an explanation came, several in a row.
Thinking of my fiance’s bottomless favoritism towards Janet, I calmly turned off my phone, culting off the incessant ringing,
Peyton Maxwell and I had been engaged since childhood, agreeing to use 5% of the Maxwell Group’s shares as a dowry, allowing me to marry into the Maxwell family.
Since the arrival of her fiancé’s beloved in the company, his gaze was completely fixed on Janet,
No matter what Janet wanted, Peyton always delivered it to her, even if it meant my project that I had worked hard on for months could become a gift to cheer Janet up.
Not long after, my fiancé suddenly came back. As soon as he walked in, he asked me to help him pack a few sets of clothes. He was going on a business trip.
I remembered Janet sending us two tickets to Whalca, and couldn’t help but sarcastically ask, “Is it a business trip or a vacation?”
My Tiancé sensed my dissatisfaction in my tone and thought I was throwing a tantrum because of apologizing to janet.
He frowned and said, “It was your fault in the first place. You have the nerve to be angry. If I hadn’t Intervened, you would have been kicked out of the company by your colleagues long ago ”
This is a very important project for the company. I must go there in person. Don’t worry, as soon as it’s over, I will come back immediately. It will not delay our wedding date,”
Chapter 1
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I didn’t speak, thinking that I understood his good intentions and no longer dwelled on the matter. He took the opportunity to ask me what gift I wanted this time.
Whenever Peyton went on a business trip, he would always bring me a local specialty. When I received the gift, I was happy for a long time.
Later I discovered by chance that every gift he brought back was something he had given to Janet, but Janet didn’t want or didn’t like.
Thinking of this, I casually said, “Whatever,”
He saw that I was not in the mood, so he asked the aunt at home to help him tidy up his clothes, then he took the gift box handed to him by the housekeeper Tyrone.
He handed me a note saying, “As a token of appreciation for the shares you contributed, this is your reward.”
I glanced over and saw a jade green bracelet, a rare antique piece.
However, I had seen this bracelet on Janet’s wrist a few days ago.
So, he gave me a fake as a reward to appease me?!
He saw me smile and thought I was very satisfied with this gift, so he immediately wanted to put it on me.
The moment he picked up the bracelet, I instinctively dodged his movement.
He paused for a moment, looking somewhat unnatural, “Don’t you like it?”
I caught the guilt in his eyes, and after a while, I calmly said one word, “Expensive.”
Upon hearing this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to say a few words of comfort to me when his phone rang urgently
He took a glance, then hurried out of the cloakroom to answer the phone.
The moment the phon
phone was answered, Janet’s urgent voice came through, “Peyton, come down quickly, I’ve been waiting anxiously…” Seeing the situation, I casually threw the bracelet into the drawer.
Upon seeing it, Tyrone gasped, “Ms. Ruiz, you have always been so careful with the gifts Mr. Maxwell gives you
so why now
I not only cherished the things Peyton gave me, I practically worshipped them like ancestors, just a few incense sticks short Ever since Peyton brought Janet home, he generously let her choose any gift he gave me,
I argued with him about this, and he turned around and accused me of being selfish and stingy, then went on to buy Janet better and more expensive things
Peyton quickly hung up the phone and took the luggage from Tyrone’s hand, hastily saying, “I’m in a hurry, remember to remind the tailor about the wedding dress we previously designed, don’t let it delay the wedding.”
As soon as the words fell, he wanted to hug me, but instinctively took a step back and avoided it,
He looked at me in confusion, wanting to say something but then thinking of Janet waiting for him outside. Awkwardly, he put down his hand, pretended to be in a hurry, and hastily took the cost from his aunt’s hand and left.
I stood by the window, watching as he kindly opened the car door for Janet and got into the car with a smile on his face.
That cat was the f
first glit Peyton gave nue.
I always kopt it in the garage and couldn’t bear to drive it, afraid of wasting Peyton’s thoughtful gift.
Janet didn’t expect it, but when she saw Peyton, he gave her a big wave of his hand.
She turned to me and said, “Since you don’t have a driver’s license anyway, and you don’t need this car, why not give it to Janet? She lives for from the company, and it can be a convenient means of transportation for her.
way she can also create more profits for the company, and when you have a driver’s license, I will give you a better car in the future.”
Isilently watched as Janet took the car keys and “dragged” Peyton to go for a drive with her.
I similed helplessly at the sight. In fact, I had already passed the driving test, and the license was placed in the drawer next to the bed.
He just
never cared, and never bothered to open it,
Watching the car drive away in the yard, I opened my phone and made a call, “I want to cancel the groom’s wedding suit I ordered before, Chapter 1
