Lina continued. “Without rules, there’s no order. Whether it’s a country or a company, everyone should understand
this principle!
“You coming to the construction site dressed like this has left a bad impression on Mr. Sam and seriously damaged
the company’s image! It’s only right and reasonable for you to be fired!”
“Ms. Jenner has spoken, so what are you waiting for?” Abigail added fuel to the fire, turning to the bodyguards. “Get
this person out of here! Hey, this is a film studio construction site. There might be commercial secrets here! How
can we let outsiders discover them?”
Several bodyguards stepped forward and immediately dragged Gia out of the construction site while she screamed
hysterically, even mentioning Jacob.
Not mentioning Jacob would have been fine, but as soon as his name came up, it struck a nerve with Abigail!

“Sooner or later, he’ll see through your true colors! Bitch!”
“Alright, let’s be mindful of our image!” Lina stepped forward and softly reminded her, “There are other people
here too!”
Abigail took a few deep breaths, temporarily suppressing her anger.
“But speaking of it… I’m quite curious.” Lina smiled. “You used to mistake me for Jacob’s girlfriend and treated me
well. Why is Gia a bitch in your eyes?”
“Ah, I…” Abigail was taken aback. How should she answer that question?
Lina grinned, placing a hand on Abigail’s shoulder. “Don’t worry. I also believe that Jacob won’t be fooled for long!
You still have a chance.”
“W-What are you saying!?” Abigail blushed, embarrassed. “I don’t have any feelings for him. Don’t make up
nonsense!”
Lina shook her head helplessly, pulling Abigail back, and continued to inspect the construction site with Sam.

Gia hid at home for several days, feeling dejected and extremely distressed. Tobias Chambers kept calling her and
even showed up at her doorstep with the sole intention of taking advantage of her.
Each time, Gia forced herself to act obediently in front of his repulsive figure, despite her discomfort. But after each
encounter, Tobias would pull up his pants and leave without saying anything about her return to the Thompson
Group.
“It’s fine if I don’t get to go back to the Thompson Group!” Gia became anxious, this time standing in front of the
door to stop him from leaving. “But you have to fulfill your promise, at least!”
“What promise?” Tobias furrowed his brows, his small eyes gleaming slyly. “What promise?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Don’t try to deny it!” Gia was infuriated. “I provided you with the information you needed before, and you said
you’d give me a house once the commercial residential area on that piece of land is built!”
“Oh, I seem to have said that…” Tobias, a cunning old fox, spoke nonchalantly. “But now that you’ve been kicked
out, you can no longer provide me with information!”
“You—”
“Oh, speaking of that, I have to be cautious around you!” Tobias widened his eyes. “Since you’re no longer with the
Thompson Group, hand over all the information you had before!”
Gia was furious, cursing him for breaking his promise.
Little did she know, Tobias had his twisted logic. “Me? Break my promise? Hah! I’ve only broken a tiny one! It’s
worthless to exploit. Did you really expect me to give you a house? Dream on!”
“Tobias Chambers!” Gia grabbed a vase in frustration. “You’re not a man!”
Tobias, however, was smug and pointed directly at his own head. “Go ahead, smash it here!”
“Ah!”
He didn’t expect Gia to actually follow through with it!
The vase shattered on the ground with a loud bang, leaving a gash on his head with blood gushing out…
