Burn the Marriage, Keep the Crown

Chapter 158

Suddenly, one of the staff members exclaimed as if struck by a revelation, "So! The person VP Lewis has been secretly in love with for seven years is Miss Sullivan!"

At this, everyone's eyes turned to Serena with a mix of curiosity and surprise.

Feeling the weight of their inquisitive gazes, Serena stood there awkwardly.

Samuel stepped forward at just the right moment to rescue Serena from the awkwardness. "Come on, guys, stop teasing. The person I have a crush on isn't Miss Sullivan."

Though the team clearly remained skeptical, they chose not to push further and slowly settled back into their seats.

Serena cast a grateful glance at Samuel before finally taking her place at the head of the table.

As soon as she sat down, a young woman beside her, beaming with mischief, said, "Miss Sullivan, you must be curious about who VP Lewis is in love with, right? Let me tell you, he is absolutely smitten. His office is filled with wooden sculptures he carved himself, all inspired by that special woman."

"Whenever he's having a bad day, just a glance at those carvings lifts his spirits. Once, an employee accidentally broke one of them, and VP Lewis was so furious he actually fired him."
