“No, nothing,” Greg replied hastily, trying to appear innocent. “What's up?”
“Have you completed that proposal | requested? | need it urgently.” Debora’s tone was laced with restrained
irritation.
Greg hesitated, fumbling for words.
Debora frowned deeply. “Don’t tellit’s still not ready. You've been here over two months and produced
nothing. If you can’t manage the job, perhaps it's best you step aside.”

Greg muttered under his breath, “The company’s practically in disarray. If we can hold on, the chairmanship
might just be within our reach.” Silence fell, heavy and expectant.
Greg pressed his point further. “Brook is our main hurdle. If he fails to sort out this mess, do you really think he'll
hold his position? Wake up, Debora. It’s tfor action. We need to seize the reins!”
Debora had reached her breaking point. With a forceful slam of her hand on the table, she burst out, “Enough! |
don’t want to hear another word about it! You're barely managing as an assistant manager, and you're dreaming
about the chairman's seat?”
Realization dawned on Greg. He saw the strain in Debora’s eyes—her tireless dedication sharply contrasting with
his minimal contributions.

Muted by his own shortcomings, Greg bowed his head, unable to muster a response.
Sensing she may have been too harsh, Debora took several calming breaths. Her voice softened but still carried
an edge. “Just... forget about Jayden. Your focus should be on the proposal. That's your priority.” Without waiting
for a reply, she spun around and strode out.
Back in the solitude of her office, Debora let her guard down. Tears traced her cheeks, a silent testament to her
bottled-up stress.

After regaining her composure, she tidied up her appearance, blotting her tears and fixing her makeup.
Jayden’s unexpected return to her office caught her off guard, his observant eyes immediately noticing her
distress. “You've been crying again.”
Embarrassed, Debora quickly wiped her face. “You finished up quickly. | wasn’t expecting you back so soon.”
Jayden simply nodded. “We cto an agreement faster than anticipated; it was straightforward.”
Debora’s brow furrowed, her mind whirling with questions. What exactly did you discuss? You're really teaming
up? Jayden, since when are you and Brook on such compatible terms? I could never picture you two as allies.
“We're businessmen, Debora,” Jayden explained, the hint of a sly smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
“Where there's profit to be made, paths align.”
That smile, cryptic and unsettling, sent a chill through Debora, planting seeds of unease that rooted deep within
her.
