Chapter 333
Sean’s jaw dropped in astonishment.
But Alyssa remained calm. She yawned and muttered, “What’s with the name-calling, hm?
Look. You
scared my secretary.”
“Why did you sever all communication after returning to Solana City, Alexa? Everyone on
the team has been praying and hoping for your swift return.” Tears welled up in Sliva’s
eyes.
“I’m sorry, dear. I won’t be able to return to you guys for a long time. I need to help my
family out here.
You’ll have to take charge of the firm in Yoarkley in my stead.” Alyssa sighed.

“But please tell everyone not to delay their own progress and ambitions for my sake. If it’s
their wish to
leave the firm and pursue greater heights, they have my full blessings.
“The same goes for you, Sliva. Don’t wait for me.”
Sliva rubbed her eyes. “I … I would never leave your team, Alexa.”
“You’ve helped me so much over the years. It’s only right that you take your chance to

“If the Beckett Group contacts me again, I’ll tell them that Alexa has decided to work with
KS Group!”
Sliva said.
Alyssa smirked. “No need. We need to give them some hope in order to have them fall

just heard. He
nearly bowed down in reverence to Alyssa.
“Hey, wake up.” Alyssa snapped her fingers in front of him, jolting him back to reality. She
suddenly asked,
“Do you think I’m being too cruel?”
As she swirled around in her desk chair, Sean replied, “I think fair’s fair. He deserves this
for treating you
terribly throughout those three years.”
“I agree.” Alyssa nodded, then closed her eyes. “It wasn’t his lack of love for me that hurt
the most, to be
honest. It was the fact that he unabashedly showed off his love for Liana while we were
married.”
