bag onto the floor before she collapsed onto the couch and dozed
The cramped space of the couch left her in the sposition all night. Her entire body ached from discomfort.
The cold woke her up at past 5:00 am the next morning. Although the heater was running at full blast, she still
shivered from the cold because of the absence of a blanket. She felt the lingering headache and a strange
tightness in her chest when she opened her eyes. The sharp smell of the alcohol lingered in the air around her.
She shifted slightly and rolled off the couch, landing on the hard floor and painfully banging her knee.

right."
"Lite is all about money. No one would turn down money! What's wrong with lowering your head a little?"
"This project's commission is worth several years of your salary. That's a significant fortune for ordinary tolles
like us!"
"Think about it. Cto my office tomorrow!"
Landon was clearly anxious. It would be enough for him to brag about for the rest of his career if they could
secure such a huge villa project for a brick-and-mortar renovation store. It was not even in the sleague!
Lily was moved as she read his words. "Life is all about money. No one would turn down money
She was going against money if she had conflicts with Xavier. Yet, he was the one who had a problem with her

Lily got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower. She had a small brealdast and changed into fresh clothes
before heading to the store.
She arrived earlier than usual and worked on the design dratt for the Devereux family before sending it to
Maryanne to show to her family. Landon arrived at 8:00 am. He tapped on her desk as he walked past Lay caught
on and got up to follow him to his office "Lily, you're young and coming from headquarters. | understand that
you're a bit prideful. But can you really lord it over Mr. Fulton? "Here's the plan. I'll set the stage, and you

"Terence," Lily replied quickly before adding, "I can't guarantee whether it'll work out in the end, but I've done
