Upon hearing Alex''s words, I suddenly realized I hadn''t gone on social media while I was enjoying my vacation as I didn''t want it to affect my mood.


    I took out my phone, but Alex quickly stopped me and said, "Ms. Jones, you won''t be the CEO after tonight, so could you please approve my resignation letter first?"


    "Why do you say that I won''t be the CEO after tonight? Although I''ve already settled a deal with the other shareholders, I haven''t signed any contracts yet.


    There''s still a lot of details that need to be discussed, such as their ns on distributing my shares and so on.


    I nced at him in confusion, took hisptop, and signed my name on the digital document.


    He had nned on leaving since my mother had passed away. He only stayed after I negotiated with him and asked him to stay and help me through the difficult period. Unexpectedly, I ended up removing my name from Jones Corporation.


    "Oh, right. Mr. Hawk has asked me to inform you that he''s holding a celebratory party for you tonight. I''ll bring you a change of clothes now, and we can talk on our way there.


    He kept hisptop away as his eyes shined brightly. He looked like a free man.


    "Celebratory party?" I felt like my heart had just exploded with happiness. However, my tone was filled with disdain as I scoffed and said, "Is there a need for a celebratory party? It''s just awsuit."Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Alex probably noticed the smile on my face as he smiled brightly at me. "Whatever it is, just follow me."


    I gave the situation on social media some thought. I had left things to brew, so I wasn''t in too big of a rush. After all, udia would probably feel smug and let down her defenses. When that happened, her fall from grace would be so much more satisfying. Moreover, my rtionship with udia would never take a turn for the better. When the time was right, Nichs'' hatred for me would. only grow, and he would never do such things as holding a party for me again.


    After all, I was nning to go against someone who held a lot more weight than me in his heart.


    Was


    If my rtionship a grand one-sided and unrequited love, then I was more than grateful to have Nichs apany me through the short journey.


    Evidently, I had begun counting down my days with Nichs ever since I got back together with him


    I know very well what I was doing. Even after every intense and intimate session together, I would always tell myself that nothing would change our ending.


    Once I left Jones Corporation with Nichs'' help, got my money, and made udia pay for everything she did, then I would have. fulfilled the promises I made to my mother.


    When that time arrived, I wouldn''t have any reason to stay by his


    side.


    Alex''s low voice pulled me back from my thoughts when he said, "


    Hurry up. There''s a surprise waiting for you!"


    At that moment, those feelings that made me feel lost disappeared as a strong determined thought came to mind-I wanted to see him!


    Wasn''t it depressing to have to set up such a sad ending for yourself?


    I nodded with a light smile as Alex drove me to the hotel Nichs had booked. Immediately, a butler came up to greet me.


    I had heard Pete boast about the hotel before. He had imed it was opened by one of his friends, and it was an invitation-only hotel. where each guest would be able to experience special VIP treatment. Countless employees greeted me as I made my way to my room. Inside, there were choctes imprinted with a photo of me on the coffee table, while some desserts and delicacies were slowly brought in. Everything was engraved with our names, from the towels, robes, and to the items on the bed.


    I couldn''t help but take out my phone to film the room. I interrupted the butler''s exnation of the amenities as I asked, "When did Mr. Hawk book the room?"


    The butler put on his signature smile as he faced the camera and said, "Normally, bookings need to be done three months in advance.


    "But Mr. Hawk had emphasized repeatedly that he wanted to prepare a surprise for you. So, we immediately began to prepare. after receiving the news about 20 days ago."


    It seemed like he had booked the room early on, but why- Did he


    +25 BONES


    know I would win today''swsuit?


    Suddenly, a ridiculous thought came to mind. I wanted to ask him how sincere his feelings toward me truly were.


    The butler had a sweet mouth as heplimented Nichs for his attentiveness and gushed about how happy and sweet my life was.


    I felt slightly embarrassed that the butler had understood why I had taken the video. So, I turned off my phone and asked, "Where''s the dress Nichs prepared for me?" The butler smiled brightly. "Mrs. Hawk, you must be anxious to meet him!"
