    Matthew Peterson instinctively shifted the me onto Emily in an effort to shield himself, but this move unexpectedly infuriated her.<fn4447> The source of th?s content is find·novel</fn4447>


    He had always believed that Emily’spliance stemmed from his good looks and his status as a sessful forty-year-old man, possessing a charm that captivated women. He thought Emily was utterly devoted to him, and that she would support him during critical moments without any reservations.


    However, he greatly overestimated his so-called allure.


    For Emily, it was money that truly held the power of attraction.


    If she had enough financial resources, she could even be drawn to a ny-year-old man, finding herself unable to break away from such a situation.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    On the contrary, without money, even the most handsome man, like Tom Cruise, wouldn’t catch her interest.


    Just moments ago, Fei Kexin had mentioned banning Emily from the designer industry, effectively cutting off her financial support. Emily was enraged to discover that Matthew Peterson had added fuel to the fire, making her livid.


    Matthew noticed Emily’s fury building and quickly signaled to her, saying, “Emily, it’s best not to speak out of turn in front of Miss Fei! I suggest you leave now and visit the HR director tomorrow; he will provide you with some dismissalpensation following the proper procedures.”


    Matthew was careful not to be too direct. His intention behind winking at Emily and mentioning thepensation was to subtly urge her to take the me without protest, assuring her that he wouldn’t treat her poorly in the future.


    However, Emily was consumed with anger from Matthew’s earlier remarks. When she heard him mention dismissal andpensation, her rage intensified. Given thepany’s policies, having only worked there for three to four years, her severance would amount to a maximum of half a year’s sry.


    Furthermore, while Matthew had confirmed her uing promotion to senior partner,pany regtions stipted that there was a three-month evaluation period before she could enjoy the benefits of that role.


    This meant that if she were fired now, thepany was obliged to pay her only half a year’s sry based on her previous earnings, which amounted to a mere two to three hundred thousand dors.


    Imagining Matthew nning to spend two to three hundred thousand dors just to rid himself of her made Emily tremble with rage. She turned to Fei Kexin and eximed, “Miss Fei, the real cause of today’s chaos is Matthew Peterson! That scoundrel has been eyeing ire for a while! He instructed me to find a way to introduce ire to him and create opportunities for her to join thepany so he could get close to her!”


    Matthew was immediately taken aback by Emily’s usation and, in a moment of panic, raised his hand and pped her, shouting, “Emily, what are you doing? How dare you nder me?! I only met Ms. ire for the first time today; your ims are absurd!”


    Emily, holding her face in shock from the p, fought back tears of pain and anger, retorting, “nder? Do you really think I have no proof?”


    She swiftly pulled out her phone, revealing the chat history she had with Matthew, which included multiple photos of ire taken without her knowledge. “Mr. Wade, Miss Fei, look at the timestamps on these photos. The earliest was taken almost a month ago when I first met ire during the master ss. That was when Matthew became infatuated with her!”


    Matthew stammered nervously, “You sent me those photos, so how can you im I was interested in Ms. ire?”


    Emily responded coolly, “You’re not denying it, are you? The chat records are here for Mr. Wade and Ms. Fei to see your replies!”


    She then turned her attention back to Fei Kexin, emphatically stating, “Miss Fei, you cannot let this monster go unpunished! He has had inappropriate rtionships with at least seven female employees, including me, right here in thepany. But that’s not the worst part! The most horrifying thing is that this scoundrel has even attacked his thirteen-year-old adopted daughter and recorded numerous indecent videos on his phone!”


    Matthew was horrified by this revtion, stammering, “How… how do you know this?!”


    With a sneer, Emily replied, “I memorized your phone password long ago. Every time you spent the night at my ce, I slipped some sleeping pills into your red wine, and while you were out cold, I essed your phone to uncover all your secrets—messages, emails, photos, and videos!”


    Matthew, now furious, shouted, “You… you are despicable!”


    Emily wiped her mouth slightly and responded sarcastically, “What? You think after being yed by you for all these years, I wouldn’t n my own revenge? Let me tell you, I have not only your dirty videos but also evidence of your collusion with others, including misappropriation ofpany assets! You led the acquisition of a fraudulent AI mappingpany earlier this year, costing thepany 500 million dors, while thatpany was essentially a shell and its technology was nowhere near ready formercialization. At least half of that 500 million must have ended up in your pockets through shady deals! Don’t worry, I’ll be presenting this evidence today! You’ll find yourself behind bars for the rest of your life!”


    At this, Matthew trembled with fear and blurted out, “Emily, I can give you as much money as you want, but if you ruin me, you’ll lose everything too!”


    Emily smirked and replied, “Fine, give me a hundred million dors. As long as the money hits my ount, you can live your life as you wish, and I’ll disappear from the design world for good!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong><h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong>Next Chapter</strong>
