A beloved cutie arrived at the company, accompanied by Anthony’s mother. Everyone eagerly crowded around, and though some hesitated to approach and greet, they still wore their brightest smiles and waved their hands.

However, Wendy harbored an inexplicable notion— she wanted to escape!

Her mind felt foggy, consumed by an idea…



But why?

That was Mr. Anthony’s mother. She was the one who broke Anthony’s watch. Although Anthony might be upset, his mother was an elderly woman, maybe she would be more understanding…

If Wendy were to step forward and apologize, and Bettany was to forgive her, then Anthony might not be angry anymore.

Wendy had the intention to approach her, but as soon as she lifted her legs, she ended up fleeing instead.

Lilly sneered, “Who’s that lady?”

Bettany overheard Lilly and turned to look.

Amidst the crowd, the young girl spotted her immediately.

“What’s wrong with her?” Bettany asked the receptionist who was leading the way.

The receptionist glanced over and respectfully replied, “She’s a new intern from the customer service department named Wendy,”

Bettany nodded and instructed, “Can you tell her to come here?”

The receptionist was puzzled. Had Wendy and Bettany already met? Why did Bettany call her over after looking at her?

Wendy had gained a reputation for being clumsy and bursting into tears whenever she encountered trouble, a perception that had spread throughout several departments. Everyone assumed she had secured her position by crying, but now it seemed that things were not as they appeared.

With lingering doubts, the receptionist made her way to find Wendy.

On the top floor…

Wearing a somber expression, Anthony said, “I’ll have it repaired tomorrow, you may leave!”

Charlie observed that despite his unhappiness, Anthony managed to maintain his composure.

It seemed that ever since Lilly joined the Crawford family, their boss, Mr. Anthony’s temper had improved.

“Yes, sir,” Charlie replied hastily, fearing that Anthony might change his mind.
