Back home, Valeria was already waiting in the living room. Seeing Eleanor and Alexander approach one after the other, she finally pointed at Alexander and shouted: “Alexander, where did you take my daughter? You know what today is, and you still took her out. Do you want to disgrace our family?!”Alexander tried to explain: “Mother, you misunderstood. I took Eleanor to…”“Shut up! Since you’re both here, I’ll make this clear once and for all!” Valeria, exuding a cold aura, sat on the sofa, pulling out the household register and marriage certificate, slamming them on the coffee table: “Tomorrow, no matter what, you two are getting divorced!”Valeria had endured enough of her useless son-in-law, Alexander. Today, her old friends had mocked her again.“Mother, what’s wrong with you? I won’t divorce Alexander. Don’t you know, today he took me and Mary to…” Eleanor quickly tried to explain.But Valeria interrupted her, with a cold expression, in a posture that said she wouldn’t listen to a
Regarding Alexander, early in the morning, he also went to work.As soon as he stepped into the store, he could feel the unusual glances from the surrounding staff, with everyone pointing at him.Although Alexander felt a bit uneasy, he remained calm, silently picking up the duty roster for the day, changing his clothes, and sitting in the employee lounge, waiting for a client to call his name."Oh, Alexander still dares to come to work, not afraid of losing face, huh?""Haha, what does he have left to lose? His dignity is long gone! Just think about how miserable his wife must feel after last night’s incident at Skyline, it must have been quite a blow to her!""A worthless person is just that—a useless person. Having someone like him in our store is such a disgrace. If it were me, I would have quit long ago!"A group of men in white uniforms and women in pink uniforms pointed at Alexander, whispering among themselves, their words full of mockery.Alexander could only shake his head i
Alexander hurriedly explained: “Manager, I didn’t do anything. She’s falsely accusing me.""Shut up! Why would Ms. Miles falsely accuse someone like you for no reason?" Armand barked, then turned and fawned over Tracie, smiling obsequiously: “Ms. Miles, don’t worry. I will deal with this trash properly!"Tracie arrogantly nodded, her eyes gleaming with malice as she looked at Alexander: “Do you understand now what happens when you cross me? Someone like you, a worthless nobody, has no right to even appear in front of me!"Armand sensing Tracie's seething anger towards Alexander, eagerly joined in, pointing at Alexander and yelling: “I don't care what your excuse is, Alexander. Right now, you will bow your head and apologize to Ms. Miles! And then, get the hell out of here!"At this moment, Armand was boiling with rage. Was Alexander out of his mind?Daring to mess around with customers in the shop—if word got out, their SPA business would be ruined!This worthless fool was always caus
Among them, there were also those who felt sympathy for Alexander, secretly wiping away cold sweat on his behalf.Even Wilmer cast a cold glance at Alexander. If it weren’t for the fact that Eleanor was from the Marshall family, he definitely wouldn’t have hired him.With a cold expression, he said to Armand: “Find a time to fire him, and give him three months' salary."Armand, of course understood immediately and nodded with a grin, saying: “Got it, boss. But there's no need to give him three months' pay. He harassed a guest earlier—he should compensate instead."Wilmer frowned upon hearing that, his face growing stern with anger as he said: “Harassed a female guest? Handle this carefully. We can’t afford to tarnish our reputation with the new owner."Armand nodded: “No problem, leave it to me."With that, Wilmer straightened his suit, put on a smile, and walked toward the Rolls-Royce.Meanwhile, Armand, feeling emboldened, crossed his arms and arrogantly said to Alexander: “Alexande
Tracie turned her head, her eyes filled with resentment as she glared at Alexander, gritting her teeth: “Alexander, don't be so smug! Do you think I'll be afraid of you just because you bought this store through the Marshall family's connections? You're dreaming!"With that, she suddenly shoved the two security guards aside and swayed her ample hips as she walked away.The two security guards wanted to chase after her, but Alexander calmly shook his head, signaling them not to.Then he looked at everyone, his gaze falling on a woman in the crowd, and smiled: “Also, I have an announcement to make. The managerial position will be held by Ms. Sandy Mark."Wham!Everyone turned to look at Sandy Mark, who was standing among them. She was dressed in a black business suit, with a perfect hourglass figure, sheer black stockings encasing her long, slender legs, showcasing elegant curves.Sandy looked at Alexander in utter surprise, almost breathless.The reason Alexander did this was because S
Seeing his grandfather's serious expression, Tommy quickly pulled out his phone, showing a video to the elder and adding some spice to the narrative: "Grandfather, look at this. Eleanor didn’t obtain the Welsh Max contract properly. They say she used her body to secure this cooperation. If she’s in charge, it will tarnish the Marshall family's reputation.""Moreover, I suspect that Alexander had ulterior motives from the very beginning. Who knows, maybe he’s been waiting for this day.” Tommy continued.The elder Marshall suddenly slammed his teacup onto the floor and shouted in a deep voice: “Hmph! A useless piece of trash dares to covet the Marshall family’s assets? He’s asking for death! That settles it. Tonight at the family dinner, I will put you in charge of the Welsh Max cooperation. You must do well. Remember, you’re the future heir of the Marshall family. You cannot afford to be incompetent, understood?"Upon hearing this, Tommy’s face lit up with joy. "Yes, Grandfather, don’t
Upon hearing this, Laurie’s parents, Sigmund Marshall and Meagan Reyes, immediately excitedly rushed over, pulling their daughter aside and saying: “Oh, Laurie, is what you said true? That wealthy young master from the Reynolds family is interested in you?"Tommy, standing to the side, his expression uncertain, intentionally sneered: “If he hasn't shown himself, how do you know him?"What's this?Trying to take the upper hand?Does she think that by doing this, Grandfather will value her more?Hmph!Tommy was feeling uncomfortable!Laurie coldly glanced at Tommy and arrogantly said: “You should know me - who Laurie is, one of the four golden flowers of Golden Harbor."Because of this, no one dared to continue doubting Laurie's words.Indeed, Laurie had more contact with rich young masters than they did, and she was also well-known in Golden Harbor."Well done, well done, the wealthy young master from the Reynolds family is interested in our Laurie. Our family is about to rise, Laurie
At that moment, Eleanor looked up, her face streaked with tears, and cried: “Mom, that’s enough. I won't divorce Alexander. I’ve been married to him for four years, and if I divorce him now, how can I hold my head high?"Eleanor didn’t want to get a divorce. She had once loved the confident and charming Alexander.But those memories were in the past, and they could never return."Not getting a divorce? How can you even think of staying with him? What’s so good about that loser? Didn’t you see Laurie’s arrogant attitude today? She’s about to become a phoenix, while what about you? How will you live your life?" Valeria scolded, her face twisted with anger.It was all because of that useless Alexander!Eleanor sobbed bitterly, shouting: “Mom, please stop. I don’t want this either, but... but I love him, and even if he never accomplishes anything in his life, I’ve accepted that!"This was an issue Eleanor had always avoided.But today, with Valeria bringing it up, she couldn’t avoid it an
