"Don't do this kind of thing again. Damon is ruthless and never shows mercy. Going against him will only lead to trouble," he warned her.
Seeing Tom's stern expression, Jacqueline bit her lip and cautiously said, "Tom, Ms. Jayston wasn't hurt at all. If I just apologized, it would be over. But she refused to letoff Could it be because of Ms. Weir?" Tom narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You mean she did it to get back at you for Valarie?"

You know I'm the CEO of the company, but I don't have any shares. If I offend our partners, my grandfather might removefrom my position tomorrow."
