Ryan was so shocked that he almost couldn’t a single word.
When he noticed Anna’s suspicious expression, he could only nod and say, “Oh, yes, it’s my mother.”
Meanwhile, he thought, But /’m actually referring to YOU, Anna. Why can’t you see it?
“Oh, the dreaded Oedipus complex. You know, a lot of girls do mind their boyfriends have that complex.
I’m going to the office now, bye.” Anna said as she reached for her bag.
“Let me walk you,” Ryan said as he stood up.
Anna waved her hand, and then pointed to the kitchen and said, “Oh, no, you don’t have to do that.
Emily’s gone to get your pizza, hasn’t she? You should wait here for her. Don’t worry, | can walk out on
my own.”
Anna then picked up her bag and walked out of the cafe.
Emily came back after a while. As she placed the steaming pizza on the table, the iron tray clattered
against the table.
Emily asked, “Where’s your sister?”
Ryan said, “You scared the hell out of me! Can you not be so rude?”
Emily’s smile vanished as soon as Ryan said those words. She gave him a vicious glare before saying,
“If you don’t want to eat it, then don’t! | can bring it home and feed it to my dog!”
“Oh my goodness! You’re so rude! It’s no surprise you’ve never had a boyfriend!”
“Don’t worry, you’re the very last man I’ll ever marry!”
Hearing that, Ryan froze, and then he remembered what Anna had just said to him. Then, he smiled
and lowered his head.
Bewildered, Emily asked, “What are you laughing at?” Ryan kept his head down and ate his pizza
without saying anything. However, he didn’t notice that Emily flushed when she looked at him.
This allowed Emily to get a good look at him.
She thought, Ayan, Damn! How could you be so good-looking? You’re far more attractive than those
boys in my class.

When Anna returned to the office, she went straight to Andrew and asked, “How is this order going?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve asked the factory to do it. The Joan Group has given us a month to finish all of the
clothes, which | believe is a very short period of time. I’m concerned that if it’s rushed like that, the
clothes will be subpar. As a result, we must let employees stay in the factory on a daily basis and keep
an eye on them.”
“So, do we have to send someone who is very knowledgeable about clothes?” Anna inquired.
“Yes, we can only send designers to keep an eye on them,” Andrew nodded.
Anna became concerned and said, “So, are you able to go there? You must be preoccupied with the
design competition these days, right?”
Andrew had signed Lemon’s design team up for a national clothing competition to make them more
famous. So, Andrew and the rest of the team had been working on new designs for a few days.
Andrew stated confidently and calmly, “Don’t worry, the competition is simple. Besides, we don’t need
people to work in the factory twenty- four seven. We simply have to go there every day.”
Anna realized Andrew might have already planned this, and she said, “Well, then. I’ll let you handle
this.”
Andrew nodded and walked away. He planned to work out a shift schedule so the designers could work
better in the factory.
Anna regarded Andrew as the most hard-working and meticulous employee in the company and
admired him for it.
Mona approached her as she was leaving Andrew’s office and reminded Anna that she had to attend a
reception hosted by AW the following evening.
“Anna, are you going there by yourself?” Mona asked.
“Huh? You don’t think I’ll be able to find a date?” Anna asked, her gaze drawn to Mona. Mona paused
before asking, “You’re planning to take Mr. Wright with you, aren’t you?” “Yeah.” “Well, no offense, but |
don’t think it’s a good idea…” Anna paused and looked at Mona in surprise.
Mona immediately responded, “Please do not take anything personally, but | just think a lot of people
enjoy making fun of others. You are aware that Mr Wright has previously offended many businessmen,
aren’t you?”
“Keep talking,” Anna said, curious about Mona’s thoughts.
Mona was silent for a few seconds as if she was considering how to phrase it.
She stated, “Mr. Wright is no longer the Carousel Group’s CEO, but rather our Group’s treasurer. He
will run into someone he knows if he attends this reception. You know, Mr. Wilson and his brother are
all rivals of Mr. Wright. So, if he goes there, | believe he will be embarrassed. Plus, people might say
mean things about you two.”
Mona had tried to be as euphemistic as possible.
Anna knew that most of the people in this circle were cruel. So, they would probably taunt Wayne if
they saw him.
Wayne was a proud and confident man and had never been as down on his luck as he was now. As a
result, Anna was concerned that he would be unable to handle the situation. “Thank you, I’ll think about
it.” She expressed her gratitude to Mona.
Mona sighed with relief and said, “Great. You know, | was afraid you’d be upset.”
“How long have you worked at the Gabriel Group?” Anna asked as they both made their way to the
office.
“It’s been five years.”
Anna was taken aback and asked, “What? So, why are you…?”
She didn’t finish the sentence because she thought it was inappropriate. She was, however, at a loss
as to how to say it differently. As a result, she had to come to a halt.
Mona didn’t seem to mind what she said.
“You want to ask me why I’m still just a junior secretary after working here for so long, don’t you?” she
said with a smile.
Anna nodded awkwardly.
Mona appeared embarrassed and stated, “That’s because | didn’t even finish high school. After
graduating from junior high five years ago, | was ready to work. My uncle contacted your father and
convinced him to let me work here. Despite the fact that my grandmother was also a Gabriel, she was
only a distant relative to your father. It already makes me happy to be a secretary here.”
Anna understood what she meant and comforted her, “That’s fine. You can definitely get somewhere if
you work hard enough.”
When Anna first joined the Gabriel Group, she requested that a secretary be assigned her as her
assistant.
Being an assistant in the Gabriel Group was difficult, and the pay was low. Furthermore, finding
someone attentive and sophisticated was difficult.
Fearing that Anna would impose her will on the entire Group, the Gabriel Group board of directors
chose some of their family members, including Emily Lewis.
“Thank you very much, Anna.” With her head bowed, Mona said.
Anna realized Mona was mature and she had always been calm. So, that was why she had chosen
Mona to be her assistant.
In the afternoon, Anna accompanied Andrew to the factory.
Andrew was correct; the factory workers were not meticulous about their work. As a result, some of the
clothes were subpar and had to be redone.
Andrew was furious and even called the factory’s owner.
“What’s going on here?”
Andrew looked at the owner coldly, threw all the fabric in his hands on the floor, and said, “Are you
questioning me? Is this what you mean by “high quality”?”
