Who writes and reads novels nowadays?

She really took the car that I had been longing for half a year away from the automotive dealership secretly and gave it to someone else.
“No, I do.”
“Lionel, I don’t know how the news about the sports car spread in the company. The staffs are all talking about Marco behind his back. Can you come and help Marco explain it for the sake of signing big orders today?”
Only when we did not love could we make rational judgments.
“My words were harsh, but you should know that Marco is the man in the company who can help me share the workload the most. You made him lose face in public today and I can’t just abandon him now.”
“Mr. Gilmore, good evening. Ms. Watson and I just had dinner outside and came back a bit late. Please don’t blame her.”

[Wow, after reading your secret stories on your crush for four years, you finally got her love!]
At first, I suspected that Marco took the photos secretly behind Louisa out of vanity.
My father even agreed to a blind date with the Scott Family on my behalf overnight.
My assistant suddenly pushed the door and casually said, “Sir, I saw Ms. Louisa and her assistant went to eat seafood. What do you want to eat? I’ll order it for you.”
“This is an irrefutable evidence. Do you want me to expose all the dirty things you have done?”
At one o’clock in the afternoon, I finished dealing with all the documents, but there was no sign of Louisa.
Just as I was trying to calm my emotions and go downstairs, she pushed open the bathroom door with the flip-flop sound of her slippers.
After five years of ups and downs, we opened the largest clothing company in Araya.
In a flash, I remembered the X post Marco posted two days ago.
How do you take your erotic photos and how do you choose the poses?
“It’s my fault, Mr. Gilmore. I shouldn’t have accepted Ms. Watson’s gift.”
Now everything had changed.
No man could bear to see the girl he loved using his own money to buy gifts for other men.
Seeing I stopped talking, she sighed.
I was stunned for a moment and frowned. “Where did you see them?”
Haha … I sounded like a stingy person from his words.
What sexual fantasies do you have?
I felt a chill in my heart and blurted out. “Go ahead.”
“Can’t you go tomorrow? Why do you have to go out so late?” asked me in annoyance.
If he dared to accept it, he should be able to guess who the original owner of the car was.
“This is your own problem. I shouldn’t have to put on a leadership role and help you solve it.”
As soon as I arrived, the airport lobby was crowded with people.
Louisa held my hand and said in a deep voice, “Lionel, why are you so angry?”
“But you have to know, as an assistant, what you should and shouldn’t accept.”
“Am I strange?”
The way he called her changed to be more intimate.

A majestic roar came from afar and a limited-edition supercar with black and gold paint appeared in front of the villa.
“The blind date with the eldest daughter of the Scotts, I’ll go.”
Seeing that I had given in, she pushed the door open and left without any hesitation.
In what capacity was he asking me not to blame my girlfriend?
“Got it! Marco and I have nothing, not now and not in the future.”
Having been in society for so many years, everyone had gained some insight.
What’s the saddest thing you’ve seen at your job?
It seemed like the superior-subordinate relationship between them was closer than I imagined.
Since the argument that day, Louisa had blocked me on X and WhatsApp.
With an annual revenue of nearly 10 billion, she said we were not a match.
What is the difference between heaven and heavens?
Marco Tucker walked around the car to the passenger seat and opened the passenger door gently and considerately.
Whatever Louisa wanted to do, I accompanied her.
Before getting off work, I received two business trip applications for two people and clicked “agree”.
— —
Marco pursed his lips and said no words.
“Am I thinking of myself?”
What are some of the best relationship advice for men?
It was her handwriting.
She said the sports car had been cancelled and sent back to the automotive dealership.
“Lionel, you can’t just think about yourself.”
[Finally, from crush to girlfriend ….]
Followed Marco behind her.
The breakfast box she brought in the bag was my least favorite lamb sandwich.
I wanted to rush downstairs and question that girl right away.
“Lionel, Marco has returned the car to the dealer, but I need to go over to cancel the account.”
As early as yesterday, I had entrusted someone to send her a breakup message.
Even though the gift she gave was to serve herself.
[Driving the car given by my boss to send her home and even the wind was sweet.]
“Marco Tucker, right? It’s just a car. I can still afford it.”
“Lionel, sorry, I didn’t get back from meeting with my business partners at noon. I just had a quick bite outside. Have you eaten yet?”
I stared at it for a long time.
Louisa who was wearing a white suit and holding a white crocodile leather bag, stepped out of the car.
On the contrary, Marco posted photos related to Louisa every day.
Marco was the partner who could stand shoulder to shoulder with her.
Wasn’t it normal for people to criticize a boss who gave his or her assistant a luxury car?
My face turned cold and so did my heart.
Louisa Watson, who was showing off her affection to me on X a second ago, quietly took away the limited-edition sports car that I had reserved for a long time in the automotive dealership.
No.
The girl’s cold face showed some dissatisfaction.
Let her pick and send it away.
I turned my gaze away from the door and let out a long sigh.
I bent down and opened the bottom cabinet.
Seeing her smile and express her emotions towards him.
I laid in my bed and stayed up the whole night.
“Don’t you like this car? It’s also for your sake that I canceled it early.”
Louisa stepped on her high heels to protect the man behind her and hugged my waist.
I saw admiration and heartache for another man in her eyes.
Her eyes were fixed on Marco, who opened the car door for her, with a hint of aggressiveness.
And staying up the whole night working on a project together and drinking American coffee at 3 a.m.
Hearing those words, both of them were stunned.
But in the cabinet, a box of men’s underwear was missing.

Marco’s eyes slightly lifted and his cold face turned slightly pale.
Ms. Louisa?
Her voice came from outside the door. “Oh, by the way, Rosie said that your underwear needs to be replaced, so she threw them all away. You can get new ones from the bottom.”
“She just feels too tired being with you. No matter how hard she tries, she can’t earn even one-tenth of your family’s money and she can’t spend your money with peace of mind.”
I spent the next whole week busy with the transfer.
But now everything had changed.
“As the marketing director, you have a keen eye, so you shouldn’t miss it.”
I squinted as I walked into the villa in a cold voice.
“You took the car without my consent. I just wanted to take back what belonged to me.”
I stared at the perfume in her hand and recalled every moment of us for the past nine years.
Louisa did not expect me to speak so bluntly and her face suddenly turned ugly.
She reacted, quickly stopped me and angrily said to Marco behind her, “What the hell is going on! When did I lie down with you?!”
It was obvious that it was not what she was prepared for me.
“You can prepare dinner yourself.”
But she refused decisively and stayed by my side wholeheartedly.
Until my assistant nervously handed me Marco’s X account and said, “Sir, I think I should let you know about this.”
A pair of gleaming silver stiletto heels stepped on the ground.
In the past five years, I had transformed from a rich second-generation who knew nothing to a first-generation entrepreneur.
Thank you for joining me, and I can’t wait to see you in the next chapter!
[Having a boss who cares for her subordinates is my happiness.]
“I feel strange with you like this.”
She also wanted me to defend him with her despite feeling disgusted.
I just wanted my favorite supercar back.
“Louisa, do you want to hear what you’re saying right now?”
A nice and friendly reminder to board the plane sounded at the airport.
My head exploded with a loud bang.
“Are you used to driving?”
Louisa was stunned and frowned.
“Louisa has been with me for nine years and has seen a lot of things. I don’t think a supercar is a big deal.”
She also said that she liked my innate arrogance and rebelliousness the most.
Faced with his provocation, my gaze turned a bit cold and I found it somewhat funny.
I took out my mobile phone and called my father who was far away in Brimstone.
A series of notifications popped up on my phone and it was an X post that Marco had just posted.
“Also, today, I suddenly remembered that you had ordered a supercar, so I picked it up and gave it to him.”
I nodded and looked at her leaving back, then opened the cabinet where my underwear was stored.
Everyone was in an uproar, expressing shock hearing this news.
“I’ve been waiting for this car for almost half a year and no one can take it away, not even you, my girlfriend.”
“I still have over a dozen supercars in my basement. Choose any one you want and consider it as a gift from me.”
“I would like to inform everyone that I will be stepping down as the general manager. The company will be fully handed over to Mr. Blunt and Mr. Vaughan beside me.”
The next day, I came to the company with hungry stomach from the night.
Just overnight, he changed the way he called his boss from “Ms. Louisa” being “Louisa”.
I put my hands in my pockets, curled the corners of my mouth and a hint of coldness and anger flashed in my eyes.
Louisa stepped in front of him and pulled my sleeve.
“I haven’t said anything yet, but you’re eager to put the blame on me.”
“You’re the boss, Lionel, this is a matter of words.”
She was stunned for a moment, her lips slightly parted, with an incredulous expression.
The atmosphere was silent.
Marco took two steps forward with his long legs and blocked me.
That night, I brought all the top-of-the-line sports cars that I had collected in my garage to her.
He bowed to me, his voice pleading. “I’m sorry, Mr. Gilmore. I didn’t think carefully about this matter. I will solve it myself. Don’t blame Louisa.”
In the past, I admired her rational and clear nature the most.
I frowned.
“Do you want me to use my authority to force the people below to shut their mouths up?”
She knew that I loved cars as much as my life, yet she dared to steal it and give it away to someone else.
The perfume in her hand was more of a brand I had long since disliked.
She and Marco would go back to the company to work overtime tonight and would not go home.
A supercar worth nearly two million seven hundred dollars was not something that a marketing director with no background like Louisa could afford.
“It’s my fault, Mr. Gilmore. Please don’t blame Ms. Louisa.”
“Alright, Lionel, doesn’t he have to pick me up and drop me off every day for work?”
I, who felt heartbroken at first, became numb in the end.
Marco reacted earlier than Louisa.
Not only did he dare to accept it, he also dared to post it openly on his X post and another social media to show off.
He uttered a dull response. “Hmm”.
But I did not expect, Louisa brought me breakfast on the table with the sticky note on the bag.
Shouldn’t we have anticipated such a result?
She was standing in the crowd, looking at me from afar.
Five years ago, after graduating from university, my father asked me to return to Brimstone to inherit the family business.
Louisa became anxious. She frowned and said in defense, “How can this be a small matter? You follow me on business trips every day and I don’t want others to criticize you everywhere.”
Nine years of giving everything for a girl, but in the end, she still did not appreciate it.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, Louisa pushed the door to my office and stepped in with her high heels.
I had money, good looks and a good figure, so why should I waste my time on someone who did not love me!
Louisa and I had been dating since we were in college until now.
“Well, my Baby, here … I bought you a new limited-edition perfume, so don’t be angry.”
I leaned back in the recliner and sneered.
“Speak! Marco!”
In the evening, I stood on the balcony of the villa and gazed the sunset.
A side photo taken from the perspective of the girlfriend sitting in the passenger seat.
I had Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, so everything had to be neatly laid out.
“First of all, a person of integrity has nothing to fear. If you, Louisa, are doing your job impartially, rewarding him for bringing huge profits to the company and giving him a supercar is understandable.”
“If I want to have a future with you, I have to get stronger. Of course, you can act childish and ask me not to go today, but I don’t want to disappoint my subordinates who fight side by side with me.”
“It’s too late now. It’s not safe to go out. You can go tomorrow.”
I lit a cigarette and blew a puff into the air.
When we were in love, she once whispered in my ear that she would only love me and only me in her life.
It was time to end this tangled triangle relationship.
Louisa, took my underwear and gave it to his assistant?
I fixed my gaze full of pressure on him.
An hour later, her male assistant drove the car and posted a message on his social media.
She did not let my hand go, instead she patiently said, “I know you’re angry, I apologize to you, okay? But Marco and I really have nothing, you’re sold your shares and broke up ….”
After all, there was no evidence that they were having an affair.
At that moment, all my expectations were dashed.
“Mr. Gilmore is already busy with work, so it’s better not to trouble him with these small matters.”
I had loved her for so many years, what storms had I not seen.
I did not even glance at them, just brushed past them.
“I can’t help it. This is the girls nowadays.”
“Didn’t you give him the car and he accepted it? What’s the point of having me, an outsider, wipe his ass?”
In his post, there was a box of underwear of this brand.
Love did not become a burden when two people’s hearts were truly together.
A message from Louisa popped up on my mobile phone.
“When is your blind date with the Scott Family arranged? Have you really decided to leave Araya?”
Forget it, it was better for the person who did not belong to me to leave.
There was no point to keep a woman who had left my heart.
Until I saw a post on X.
I handed the breakfast to my assistant and asked him to go out and sell me another one.
Louisa then pulled me all the way into the bathroom.
We had been in relationship for nine years and this was the first time I had gotten so angry over another man.
She had some impatience on her face, but she still held back her patience to explain to me.
Marco took a step back, lost his composure and apologized several times.
This clothing company was co founded by me and Louisa. She and I both hold half of the equity.
There were comments below.
“I’ll cancel and return it to the dealer as soon as possible.”
I ignored her shock, put away my mobile phone and walked past her.
Rosie paid extra attention to this and checked it carefully every day.
As a cold and aloof beauty, men pursue her and compete to get her.
I nodded and responded, “Next week, I’ll transfer the management rights of the company to you and leave.”
She grabbed her assistant’s hand, pushed the office door and left without looking back.
Her eyes were a bit red and her gaze was full of charm.
I frowned and responded calmly, “Let go, it’s so dirty.”
I pulled the corners of my mouth and smiled.
“The way he looks at you is not the way an ordinary subordinate looks at his superior.”
Did she know what it meant to give a man underwear as a gift?
“Rosie is taking a day off today. You take a shower first and I’ll go fry you a steak,” she said.
However, I did not want to leave Louisa, so I stayed in Araya.
She frowned and pouted.
I was really reluctant to leave everything behind and return to Brimstone now.
My hand, which was about to sign, paused and I raised my eyes.
I looked at her deeply and believed her pledge of allegiance for the time being.
Since we wanted to sever ties, we naturally had to settle everything.
I walked out and stood in front of the girl.
“Notify everyone that there will be a staff meeting this afternoon.” I ordered.
Spending their time together watching the sunset on the beach after chatting with their bussiness partner.
Targeting? He was not worthy.
She pulled out a chair in front of the table and sat down, sighing.
Now, he even called her “Louisa”.
And that’s where we’ll leave the story for now. The journey ahead is full of twists, turns, and unforgettable moments you won’t want to miss.
“I don’t care if you misjudged his contribution to the company or you feel sorry for him for accompanying you on business trips and driving every day. The company has given him enough salary and if it’s not enough, he can ask for more, instead of you secretly using my supercar to compensate him.”
He looked up, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.
I took a sip of my mojito without saying a word.
She defended him.
Getting up early and having breakfast together in the hotel.
I got in the car and headed to the airport.
At night, my best friend, Reymond Blunt called me to drink.
Then, her tone was both coaxing and scolding, brought me back to my senses. “I know you are jealous because you love me, but the others who don’t know will think you’re targeting someone else’s staff.”
Jealousy over a slightly more good-looking male assistant was truly a fall from grace.
I did not have any emotions more, I just smiled indifferently and returned the phone to my assistant.
“You have a prominent family background, Lionel, unlike ordinary people like me.”
The guilt I felt for impulsively agreeing to the blind date last night completely disappeared.
I was sure now.
My assistant shook the mobile phone in his hand with a look of surprise.
My raging anger suddenly died down and what followed was endless coldness and disappointment.
“You dare to give a supercar worth two million seven hundred dollars to the man who adores you, Louisa ….”
She raised her hand and slammed the table angrily, saying harshly, “We can handle it ourselves. We don’t need you.”
Although I did not want to admit it, I was now so jealous that I was insane.
In his latest X post, he posted a picture of Louisa lying in his arms and sleeping soundly.
At three o’clock in the afternoon, I walked into the largest conference room of the company with Reymond on time.
I was furious instantly and lost my sanity.
She took out a bottle of perfume from her eight-digit Hermes bag and smiled dotingly.
I picked up the documents she brought back and gave a faint response. “Hmm.”
A relationship that had changed in quality was like an unappetizing breakfast. There was no need to force ourself to eat it.
The next day, the real estate agent came to register the sales information of the villa.
I threw the document on the table, interrupting the two people who were staring at each other.
I did not need to be too concerned.
“But the fact is, the value of these orders is far less than that of a supercar.”
I suddenly felt ridiculous.
I stepped down from the stage and left the conference room.
As a man, he should know why I was angry.
[Marco and I go to meet some clients and have lunch together.]
[Congratulations for becoming a boyfriend and becoming a regular employee officially.]
When the salesperson sent me a message in the afternoon, I thought Louisa was trying to give me a surprise secretly, so I spent three hours happily in the dressing room choosing an outfit.
Louisa, after nine years of our relationship, did you have any feelings for me?
Leaving me only the refreshing fragrance of gardenia that dissipated into the air.
She took a deep breath and said, her eyes filled with disapproval of me, “You took back the gift I gave him in public and now you’re letting him waste so much time at the dealer.”
I was already angry and hearing these words only added fuel to the fire.
I waited for her for so long that I was starving. I then opened my mobile phone and saw Marco’s social media.
He joked that I should have changed a long time ago.
It turned out that all this time she always felt that we were not a good match.
I saw them exchanging a few words with each other and Louisa smiled particularly happily.
“With so many supercars you have, you don’t mind, do you?”
I got it.
I was too lazy to argue with her, so I just opened X and showed her Marco’s X account.
I dragged my suitcase towards the security checkpoint and ran into Louisa and Marco who were rushing back.
She said I was her life.
“On X, her assistant posted a message thanking Ms. Louisa for treating him to a delicious meal.”
Marco behind her spoke up, “It’s okay, Mr. Gilmore, a few rumors can’t hurt me.”
His slender fingers gripped the steering wheel and the corners of his mouth curved in just the right angle.
