But what could he do about it?
Nothing good would come out of a forced relationship. Although he and Flossie had tried their best to be together, neither was happy.
Letting go was the only thing he could do for her!
“Liam, what do you mean by all this? Are you breaking up with me? Are you giving up on this relationship?” Flossie was getting a little anxious. She grabbed him by his arm. “I spoke too hastily and didn’t consider your feelings. I realize I was wrong… I won’t choose anyone else but you. Don’t be mad, and don’t give up on me. Please?”
She sounded a little too humble when she said this, but every word she said came from the bottom of her heart.
To her, Liam was like a pillar of hope that had always supported her and continued to support her until now.
If he left, she honestly wouldn’t know how to carry on through the darkness ahead…
Liam was a little teary-eyed. He shook his head and pushed her hand away one finger at a time. “Boss, I know you’ll do much better without me. I don’t want to hold you back or drag you down. If you choose me tonight, it’ll be against your own desire. You’ll regret it afterward and blame yourself for being too emotional and irrational. That’s why… I’m willing to be the bad guy”
After saying that, Liam turned around and left. He seemed determined when he walked away, but tears were already falling from the corner of his eyes.
‘…” Flossie watched him leave, but she didn’t run after him. She fell deep in thought.
The employees around them were all touched by Liam’s heartfelt confession. In fact, some of them were even crying.
‘Tsk, tsk! It’s so hard to find a perfect man with a high status these days. He even loves her with all his heart. How touching…’
Everyone was rooting for this couple!
“Ms. Ellsworth, it looks like you’re still reluctant to let go. Why don’t you go after him?” Jovan asked playfully.
“Do you want me to?” Flossie calmed herself down and put on a tough act. She smiled ambiguously at Jovan.
“Of course not.” Jovan returned a smile and extended his hand to her.”
Since you’re single now, I won’t miss the opportunity to spend the night with you. Why don’t we head out right away? I can’t wait to bring you to that special place.”
Flossie nodded calmly. “What are we waiting for? Let’s go!”
Hence, the two left affectionately in front of all the employees of H Group.
The employees sighed in disappointment.
“I can’t believe how much Mrs. Guajardo has changed in four years. She’s no longer the kind, gentle, and naive Mrs. Guajardo I knew. She has no morals to speak of, and she flirts with everyone she meets!”
“This means Guajardo my Ellsworth has become completely irrelevant. I don’t like her promiscuity. She doesn’t deserve Mr. Guajardo. He has been saving himself all these years, but she couldn’t even refrain herself from a womanizer like Jovan. I feel sorry for Mr. Guajardos…”
“It’s not just Mr. Guajardo I feel sorry for. I feel sorry for Liam too. He’s completely innocent!”
The employees decided they no longer liked Flossie. One of them even said, “Hey, have you heard? Mr. Guajardo hasn’t returned because he’s severely injured. In fact, it was all thanks to Mrs. Guajardo.”
“It’s not just that. According to a reliable source, the rescue failed, and Mr. Guajardo might have…”
“Huh? Will Jovan replace him? That’s horrifying! Although Mr. Guajardo is a tough boss, at least he has the personality and charm. Jovan is some insignificant ant. If he takes over H Group, I’m quitting immediately!”
Everyone was chatting in excitement when they were suddenly startled by a stern voice.
“Don’t you have work to do?”
The voice belonged to someone who, like Halston, had been absent from the company for a long time. He was none other than the secretary of H Group’s CEO, Elijah.
“M-Mr. Young!”
Everyone immediately fell silent.
Being Halston’s personal aide, Elijah held a very high status in H Group. Sometimes, meeting Elijah was like meeting Halston himself.
“What were you all talking about?” Elijah asked with a frown.
Having been away from H Group for a while, everything seemed to be a mess to him.
“Mr. Young, we were talking about…” An employee who was braver than the rest told Elijah about everything that had happened earlier.
‘Mr. Young, if Mr. Guajardo is fine, please get him to come back and keep things at bay. Now that Jovan is in charge of H Group, he’s been doing many things he’s not supposed to. Clearly, he wants to take over the company. In fact… In fact, he even dared to touch Halston’s wife, Ms. Ellsworth!”
This employee was a huge fan of Guajardo my Ellsworth. Right then, he let out all his negative emotions while explaining what happened to Elijah.
“This kid even dared to touch his cousin-in-law. He must have a death wish! ’ Elijah clenched his fists tightly.
“M-Mr. Young, may I know what happened to Mr. Guajardo? Why has he been absent from H Group for so long? There are all sorts of nasty rumors out there! It’s affecting our reputation!” Another employee mustered the courage to ask Elijah these questions.
“It’s better not to ask. Are you obliged to find out about Mr. Guajardo’s situation?” Elijah replied before pondering for a moment.
“Do you know where Mrs. Guajardo and Jovan have gone?” Elijah asked
Under the night sky, a silver Bugatti Veyron rumbled along the tarmac at a devilish speed.
Flossie looked blankly ahead in the passenger’s seat. Although she knew very well that Jovan, seated in the driver’s seat, wasn’t a good person, and there were definitely many traps ahead, she still remained calm.
She might not have been confident when dealing with other people, but she was experienced enough when it came to idiots like Jovan.
Upbeat music that sounded like rock blared in the car.
Jovan was visibly happy. He was smiling from ear to ear. With one hand on the steering wheel and the other tapping against the window to the beat of the music, he looked very handsome under the amber glow of the street lamps.
“If you haven’t slept, if I haven’t stopped chasing, if being awake is a crime, take these promises away, exchange them with…”
The man, swaying from side to side while humming along to the song, looked somewhat like Halston. His facial features were exquisite, and he seemed extremely attractive.
For a second or two, Flossie wondered if Jovan was possessed by a certain handsome guy. Why did he seem so attractive?
“You sing pretty well, Mr. Guajardo. Five Accused’s songs sound ordinary, but they’re all challenging to sing. One could easily sound like a howling ghost or a wolf, but you made it sound just right. In fact, I prefer your rendition of this song over the original…” Flossie complimented from the bottom of her heart.
Although she didn’t have a good impression of this idiot, she was amazed by his singing talent.
“Really?” Jovan’s smile grew wider. He glanced at the woman next to him.” You’re not the first to realize I sing well, but I think you’re still the better singer.”
“Have you ever heard me sing, Mr. Guajardo?”
“That’s not all. In fact, I consider myself a loyal fan…” Jovan frowned a little while he seemingly tried to recall something. “Ocean’s Word is much better than the bands we have today, like Five Accused, Sunset’s Rollercoaster, and Orange Sea. They had countless fans. Unfortunately… They disbanded!”
Flossie pinched her chin in surprise. “You actually know Ocean’s Word! Kid… You’re really something else!”
She had always thought Jovan was the thoughtless kind of kid who did whatever they wanted in Beach City just because their family was rich. To her surprise, he had good taste in music. This certainly impressed Flossie!
“Anybody who plays rock likes Ocean’s Word. After all, their lead singer can sing and write her own songs. She also has an angelic voice. Whenever I hear her singing, it feels like my soul has been cleansed. Who could possibly resist?”
Feeling inspired, Jovan closed his eyes to recall something. He then started singing. “The ocean, the ocean of your dreams, do our memories still exist…”
