Liam thought that Royce was here to visit him, so he even felt faintly like something fantastic had just fallen into his lap-but he never expected Royce to simply walk past him and stride right up to Nora!

Liam was stunned.

When he turned around, he saw the man, who was high up in the air in the company, ask, “Ms. N… Ms. Lisa, why are you here? Does Ma’am know?”

“??י :Liam

The handsome and cheerful boy was utterly stunned.

He stared at Royce in disbelief.

What did he just say?

He swallowed.

“Ms. Lisa”? “Ma’am”? Why was he speaking so politely as though her position was above his?

The only person whom Royce would address as “Ma’am” was the boss of NTT. Why was he asking Lisa about her?

Liam’s thoughts were in a mess. He couldn’t figure out what was going on at all.

He stared blankly at Royce and then at Nora. For a while, he felt like he was dreaming.

Nora sighed a little the moment she saw Royce.

It seemed that she wouldn’t be able to conceal this identity of hers in front of Liam anymore.

She broke into a small frown. She first nodded slightly at Royce, motioning to him to wait a moment. Then, she looked at Liam and said, “Please keep my identity a secret.” Liam nodded dumbly.

Then, Nora looked at him again and asked, “So, can you let me have a private word with Royce?”

Liam: “!!”

He looked at Royce.

When Liam first joined the company, he had seen Royce high up in the air. He was surrounded by people when he walked past Liam. He hadn’t even spared him a glance.

At that time, Liam had told himself that he must work hard to climb the ladder into the department and become Royce’s subordinate! And become someone like Royce!

But the goal he was struggling in life to move towards was instead standing humbly in front of Lisa with a respectful look on his face. In fact, the man, who had never even spared him a glance before, was even giving him a somewhat ingratiating smile right now.

Liam knew that this was all because of Lisa.

In his trance, he nodded and walked into his house.

After closing the door, he couldn’t hear what Lisa and Royce were saying anymore. However, at this distance, he could still see Lisa saying something to Royce in a low voice and Royce nodding repeatedly.

This huge reversal of roles made Liam hang his head in disappointment.

He was an honest man, so he wanted to climb higher grounds with his own efforts. Even when Fred was bullying him the other time, he hadn’t felt anything and had just thought that this was something that a man should do.

But at this moment, seeing Lisa’s sudden transformation from someone who needed his help to someone high up in the air, he couldn’t help but sigh. In this world, a person’s social status was simply too predisposed to change.
