Chapter 1152 – “Indeed… He Who Laughs Last Laughs Best”
*****The memory replayed in their minds… the way Dorothy had accepted their termination notices without panic, begging, or rage.She had simply nodded her head and signed them… neither smiling nor frowning.“So… this was their plan all along?” one man muttered, his voice hollow.“Did they deliberately arrange this to flush us out?” another demanded, panic lacing every word.The word ‘flush’ instantly hung heavily in the air, making more sense than anything else the moment it echoed.“Boohoo! My instinct told me something was wrong!” a woman wailed dramatically, clutching her head as though trying to squeeze intelligence back into it. “Why didn’t I listen?!”“I should have known!” another woman cried out, her voice cracking. “What company in its right mind would accept contract termination without fighting back… especially at such a critical moment?”“I was such an idiot!” someone shouted, smacking his own forehead with a force that probably reduced his IQ further.Gradually,
Chapter 1151 – The Defectors’ “Realization”
*****Meanwhile, back outside the gates, the ex-employees’ wails only grew louder, desperation cracking through every word.As for the ex-partners and ex-clients…A small handful had joined the begging crowd, swallowing their pride like bitter medicine.But most of them stood stiffly apart, pale, and silent, their expressions empty.Because, unlike the employees who could at least attempt emotional appeals, these business leaders understood something far more terrifying.They had just forfeited a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.And they knew it.Their companies had severed ties the moment rumors of Sky Group’s downfall spread, eager to save themselves. They had calculated the risk and had chosen survival.But now the calculation had backfired catastrophically.Sky Group hadn’t sunk; instead, it had ascended by leaps.The kind of leap that left everyone else staring up from below.The realization left several ex-partners feeling their vision blur.Suddenly, one of them clu
Chapter 1150 – “How Thick-Skinned Could People Be?”
*****“Sister Dorothy, please! I… I want my job back! I don’t want to quit again!”“I don’t want to jump ship anymore!”“I was just joking around earlier, Secretary Dorothy! It was a prank and a social experiment!”“Boohoo! Sister Dorothy, I’ve learned my lesson now!”“Secretary Dorothy, remember me, right? I was one of the top performers of my department!”“Sister…!”One after another… like dominoes collapsing in humiliating synchrony, most of the employees who had abandoned Sky Group the instant they thought it was sinking began crying out.Their voices layered over each other chaotically, saturated with desperation, soaked in regret, and shamelessly coated with gaslighting attempts that would have impressed even professional manipulators.Inside Sky Group’s compound, however, the loyal employees were still drowning in disbelief.The announcement they had just seen and the reversal… it still felt unreal, too sudden and too monumental for them to comprehend.Many of them s
Chapter 1149 – The Ex-Employees’ Regret
*****No one… absolutely no one, whether outside the Sky Group’s compound or inside it, had anticipated this catastrophic reversal of fate.Just one second ago, Sky Group had been pronounced dead without a funeral. Its downfall had seemed certain, inevitable, and already written in stone.Clients had unhesitatingly severed contracts with dramatic flair, partners had distanced themselves as though loyalty itself were a contagious disease, and even employees… those who once swore eternal gratitude… had packed their belongings and fled like passengers abandoning a cruise ship that had merely tilted by one degree.In their minds, the company had already sunk to the darkest depths of the ocean.But in the very next second… that conviction exploded, and in that explosive instant, reality itself seemed to malfunction.Inside the compound, outside the gates, and across the courtyard, everyone remained frozen right now… their bodies stiffened, their eyelids forgot how to blink, and even
Chapter 1148 – Lucius’s Sudden Cultivation Regression
*****At first, Lucius had even told himself that it was temporary… a fluke and a desperate spark before extinguishment.But Grace hadn’t stopped, stumbled, broken, or begged… instead, she had advanced, and just as he reluctantly accepted that she had caught up to him, she moved past him… quietly, steadily, and decisively.That alone had been difficult to swallow.Yet the true humiliation came afterward.When he thought she had fallen again… just when he believed she had lost her backing, protection, and everything that made her, things changed.Lucius had felt a twisted excitement, believing that this time, he would toy with Grace even more easily than before and ensure she understood her place.He had even indulged in those fantasies, replaying them like a child savoring revenge.But instead of collapsing…She shot upward… but not in a gradual rise or careful climb like before.Instead, she had shot upward with such a violent, unstoppable surge that two first-rank families
Chapter 1147 – We Are Simply Not Worth Keeping Malice with Her
*****Lucius was too dumbstruck right now, finding it difficult to believe what he had just heard.His father was openly acknowledging their own inferiority… a realization that felt more painful than a slap.But before he could fully process it:“And as it seems,” Augustus continued without raising his voice, “she is one of those people.”Lucius’ vision dimmed at the edges, the room seeming to tilt slightly.She…” he stammered, pointing instinctively as though Grace herself stood before them.His finger trembled. “Even after all she has done? After humiliating us to the extent she had done? And after making us the laughingstock of the entire city?” His voice cracked, anger and wounded pride fighting desperately against the fear clawing up his spine.Augustus exhaled slowly, the sound weary rather than furious.“You are thinking about our pride,” he replied evenly. “But I am thinking about our survival.” He shook his head, a rare gesture of concession.“For your sake, for mine, and for
