Sandra looked at Willow expressionlessly and said, “Come into my
office.”
Willow started panicking again. The secretary sighed. “Go on in. I’ll be
out here. Improve your attitude and correct your mistakes promptly if
you’ve made any!”
Willow tugged at the secretary’s arm, saying, “Lily, please come in
with me. I’m scared…”
The secretary broke free from Willow’s grip and replied somewhat
helplessly, “Think about how much effort Ms. Wade has put in for
you. She’s not even married yet, and what’s the reason for that?”
After saying this, the secretary walked away without looking back.
Willow stood there in a daze.

burden.
Uneasiness taking over her, Willow entered Sandra’s office.
Sandra sat on the sofa with her arms crossed. The usually doting gaze she would direct at Willow was

emotion.
Willow closed the office door and said nervously, “Aunt…”
“Why did you close the door? Worried about losing your dignity?”

Sandra’s eyes were full of disappointment.
Her sister had died due to difficult childbirth while her brother-in-law
had silently disappeared overnight.
Sandra sighed, her disappointment palpable. She had raised Willow
up on her own, guiding her through every step of the way. In the years
she was abroad, no one was around to discipline Willow, and she ended up straying down the wrong
path. She even ended up in a
detention center.
When Sandra received the news, she immediately returned to the
country and stayed by her side. In the three years she spent in
Capiton, she had bought Willow a house and a car. She even introduced her to the outstanding young
talents in the company.
However, Willow was playful, so she was reluctant to settle down and
have kids at her young age.
When Sandra considered how young Willow was, she gave

checkpoints.
Sandra had put in so much effort on Willow, and now, she was
causing trouble.
Thinking about her disappointment and the efforts she had put in
raising Willow, Sandra’s heart hit rock bottom.
“Aunt, I..” Willow wanted to confess but was afraid of implicating her

As she turned to leave, Sandra sternly admonished her, “You come
back here.”:

doorknob trembled. She was feeling a mix of fear and remorse.
Sandra had never once gotten angry with her. Even when Willow got
drunk and injured someone, leading to her detention, her aunt
tirelessly sought forgiveness from the victim’s family.
Willow could tell she was genuinely angry this time.

to do with those matters, they wouldn’t have come looking for you!”
“Aunt, I’m sorry,” Willow apologized as she choked back on her tears.
She then quickly opened the door and hurried away.
Filled with disappointment, Sandra slowly closed her eyes as tears
came streaming down.

Meanwhile, in Purchasing Department 2, Queenie was chatting laughing with several close colleagues.
At that moment, her secret walked in and said, “Queenie, there’s trouble in Purchasing
Department 1!”
The room fell silent.
Queenie smiled and asked, “What happened?”
