Having been Christopher’s personal assistant for many years, Felix Lynch thought he knew his
employer very well.
However, this time, he was at a loss.
“When Katherine was around, he treated her indifferently. Now that she took the hint and left, he
became hot–tempered. Could it be that he’s still in love with his ex–wife?” he wondered.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Levine. Although we still can’t locate Mrs. Levine, she certainly is one of the daughters
of the Xander family and merely Gregory’s adopted daughter. Hence, she shouldn’t be a corporate spy
sent by our rival.”
Felix was feeling extremely aggrieved at that moment. As he made his report. eloquently, he pricked up
his ears, wanting to hear Christopher’s thoughts.
“Adopted daughter? She’s merely Gregory’s adopted daughter?”
Christopher was sitting with his legs crossed while tapping his knee with his right finger. He always did
that when he was mulling over a problem.
After a moment of silence, he said lightly, “Maybe I’m just overthinking.”
On the other end of the line, Felix was puzzled. Although he was usually skilled at reasoning, he
seemed to have lost his touch at that moment, as he could not read hist employer’s mind.
Not wanting to be fired from his job, he could only reply tentatively, “We’ll add more. manpower and find
Mrs. Levine as soon as possible.”
“There’s no need for that! There’ll be no Mrs. Levine in the future,” Christopher said expressionlessly.
He did not even realize that he sounded much like someone who was throwing a tantrum at that
moment.
He then added, “She can go anywhere she wants. Since she is determined to leave, I’ll fulfill her wish.”
However, deep within him, he thought, “Isn’t this Katherine’s usual trick? Playing hard to get?”
“Stop all collaborations with the Xander family. Once she runs out of options, there’s no
that materialistic woman won’t come back,” he stated.

In simpler terms, Christopher would simply wait for her to return.

Meanwhile, in Dellmoor, Kimberly got to work early in the morning with vigor.
As the new CEO, it was indeed important to make meaningful changes.
However, her main priority right then was to grasp the overall situation of the company as soon as
possible.
Hence, Larson Corporation was in chaos that day, as everyone was diligently preparing to meet their
new CEO’s inspection.
In just one morning, she had visited every department, with Frederick reporting meticulously beside
her.
It did not take long for her to familiarize herself with the company.
With the arrival of the new CEO, the employees also had new topics to discuss among themselves.
While Katherine was doing her inspection, they pretended to be working hard at their workstations, but
in fact, all their attention was drawn to the charismatic woman.
The employees let out gasps of admiration, male and female employees alike.
“Wow! Our new CEO must have been the savior of the universe in her past life. Look at her! She’s
blessed with such good looks, and yet she chose to rely on her talents to make a living instead.”
“If she were to enter the entertainment industry, that celebrity from Norham, Kiara, could only be her
assistant at the most.”
The longer they looked at their CEO, the more they liked her.
One of the female employees, who enjoyed posting on social media, could not help but make use of
such valuable and inspirational material. Hence, she took a picture of the CEO’s back and typed a
caption: “The new CEO of Larson Corporation. A new look and
a new era.”
Soon after posting it, the comment section exploded.
“Is this a sitcom? But I have to say, the actress is stunning. There’s indeed beauty in our midst. She
should make her debut immediately!”
“The male employees of Larson Corporation are truly blessed. Not only do they have high salaries, but
they could also gaze upon a goddess.”
“Hey! Could you ask your HR department if your company has any plans to recruit new employees
anytime soon?”

“She looks like an angel that has descended from heaven. So lucky to be born this way!”
When she was still Katherine, she rarely wore such high heels.
After becoming the fashionable and domineering CEO, Kimberly had made it a personal requirement to
wear heels that were at least 10 centimeters tall in the office.
She would also wear classy yet simple office attire, paired with a touch of delicate makeup.
This was the representation of her powerful presence within the workplace.
After the inspection and as soon as she walked into her office, Kimberly kicked off her heels and
changed into a cute pair of slippers.
Her current demeanor was drastically different from before.
Frederick was both the deputy CEO of Larson Corporation and Kimberly’s personal
assistant.
He was born in the remote countryside and had achieved success through his own efforts.
However, he was also lucky to have gained the help and guidance of Yandel.
Hence, after his graduation, he remained in Larson Corporation, determined to work. for the company
for the rest of his life.
“Larson Corporation is a large company with businesses all over the world, including jewelry, finance,
real estate, supply chain, and consultation. However, the company’s management is very chaotic and
lacks cohesion, and many people are slacking off. Although I was slightly surprised after today’s
inspections, it was still within my expectations. Notify the HR department to sort out the performance
and assessment of all the employees in the past three years, including those from the mid–level
management. Then, notify the business department to sort out the company’s business performance in
the past three years and new points of growth in the next three years as well,” Kimberly instructed.
Frederick looked at her with full admiration and lowered his head from time to time to take notes
diligently. “All right, Ms. Larson. I’ll take care of it right away!”
Kimberly finally understood a little why Yandel was worried about handing over Larson Corporation to

“He’s just been blindly giving instructions. It doesn’t make sense for a multinational company to directly
apply the management model of a state–owned enterprise. Uncle William is simply preposterous!” she
thought.

She now realized although the company was large and the profits were huge, the company had no
vigor.
Most of the employees were only pretending to work hard when, in fact, they were just wasting their
time.
Thus, Kimberly’s next step was to ride the momentum and make some meaningful changes around
here.
Just as Kimberly was contemplating the future, she received a call from Vincent.
“Are you at the office? I’m surprised by your lack of response, but there’s been a huge commotion on
the internet!”
“I was busy the whole morning and am dead tired. I’m not as carefree as you. What is it?”
“Your ex–husband is getting married.”
“Huh! Such impatience. It’s only been a few days after our divorce,” she remarked with a half–smile.
“There’s more shocking news. As I was free this morning, I looked up Kiara on the internet and finally
found her medical record. Take a look.”
The moment he finished speaking, Kimberly received a compressed file on her phone. containing
information regarding Kiara.
She had to admit that the woman was good at acting.
“Her usual kindness is just a pretense. No wonder she could become an actress. But I can’t believe
that even her pregnancy is fake!” she mused.
According to the data, Kiara had an ovarian cyst removal operation three years ago, and the doctor’s
diagnosis was that she would never be able to get pregnant again.
“So the pregnancy slip she showed me last time was also another trick of hers,” thought Kimberly.
Not long after, Vincent called her again.
“What do you think? Are you surprised? I truly sympathize with your ex–husband. I can’t believe he lost
such a rare treasure like you for a pretentious woman. Shall I go and teach them a lesson?”
