Chapter 2

There were no new replies in Fiona's comments section anymore.

I thought about it and typed a few words.

[I understand. I heard that Pleasure Point and Crazy Nights have several guys with good figures and physical strength. You can choose one from them.]

After sending the comment, I opened Google Workspace and submitted my resignation application.

Fiona came in when I was handing over with my colleague in the meeting room.

She asked the colleague to leave and then closed the door.

"Why didn't you come to coax me this time?"

I was organizing the documents on my laptop, so I answered indifferently, "I'm tired. I don't want to do it anymore. I've had enough of quarreling every couple of days."

Fiona crossed her arms and looked at me with a disdainful look. "So what? Are you going to leave me? Miles, don't forget, you don't have anyone but me by your side."

I closed my laptop and looked at Fiona calmly. "It's been ten years. Have you ever thought about marrying me?"

Fiona's eyes dodged in a panic.

At that moment, I instantly understood that I was never part of her plans.

After a while, she came to her senses and spoke with a hint of pride, "What do you want? A house? A car? Money? Or a promotion opportunity? I can give you all of them."

I felt relieved and said, "No need. I just want you to approve my resignation."

Fiona seemed surprised that I would go this far.

She took out her phone and saw the resignation application.

"Miles, you brought this upon yourself. Don't think about coming back and begging me to reconcile with you. That would be so embarrassing."

I smiled and said nothing.

Fiona didn't try to stop me anymore.

As I walked out of the company's gate, I received the message that my resignation had been approved.

I knew Fiona was certain that I wouldn't leave.

Ten years ago, my mom got seriously ill and needed a large sum of money for treatment.

I tried various part-time jobs and even participated in underground fighting, just to raise money for my mom's medical expenses.

But all the jobs ended up in vain, and the meager amount of money I earned was not even enough to cover one-tenth of the medical expenses.

Helpless, I had to drop out of school and search for jobs from morning till night.

That was when Fiona appeared.

She said her dad's company needed an assistant and she could introduce me to him.

I didn't dare to imagine that someone like me, who didn't even have a college degree, could actually get into a listed company and receive a decent salary.

After hearing about my mom's situation, Fiona even took out her savings to subsidize me.

I didn't know how to repay her kindness, but she said it would be enough as long as I became her boyfriend.

Unluckily, my mom didn't survive in the end. However, I had managed to repay the 500,000 dollars Fiona gave me over the years.

But I knew that what I owed her was not just 500,000 dollars.

So, no matter what outrageous things she did later, I would always forgive her.

That was what I owed her.

I knew it when I accepted that job.

In this lifetime, I would always be inferior to her.

And she didn't want to marry me, probably because she looked down on me from the bottom of her heart.
