This excuse sounded familiar because it had not happened just once, but this year it happened ....
On my birthday and on our anniversary.
Wanda always claimed she was too busy with business deals, only to turn around and meet with Julian.
What excuse does she use this time?
I shook my head, asking no further questions and met with several close business partners.
I informed them I was about to leave and gave them the risk.
In my opinion, if Wanda had made Julian work as the general manager for a long time, she would lose my support. And eventually, the company would decline.
My partners were shocked and convinced Wanda must be insane to betray someone who’d served her well and replace me with a newcomer.
It was no different from seeking destruction.
After parting ways with my friends, I stood alone by the shore, letting the wind blow through me. Countless fireworks bloomed in the night sky, like exploding shooting stars.
Amidst the dazzling display, I caught sight of Wanda. She was leaning against Julian's shoulder and looked up at the night sky, with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth.
That was brighter than the fireworks themselves.
Red strings were still tied around their wrists.
