Chapter 4
Angela glanced at Pierre, who was tall and handsome with arched brows and deep eyes. He had an expressionless face, his thin lips slightly compressed,
Angela’s first impression of him was that he was a cold–hearted man.
But somehow, he seemed familiar to her.
She couldn’t remember seeing him before though
But the felt Charlie looked like him, especially s
when Charlie pretended to be cool, like

man was
doing now.
She thought in disdain that Pierre still lacked judgment and seemed to not have matured.
‘What if I have evidence?”
Angela looked back at Kimberly
You’re here for money, aren’t you? Just tell me how much you want.
Pierre’s voice sounded again, tinged with a hint of disdain.
Angela glared at him, wondering why he insisted on meddling in this matter with Kimberly
Angela talked back sarcastically. “Sir, if you have money, you can give back and donate it to charity. Everyone will be grateful to you then.”
Now w she was in charge of three companies and didn’t lack money at all.
Kimberly pretended to persuade her kindly. “Angela, I know you have no evidence. You’d better apologize to how much you want, and I’ll write you a check right away.”
to Pierre a
as soon as possible. Just tell me
Angela burst into laughter. “Why should I apologize to him?
“Angela, you may not know Pierre since you’ve been away for so long. He is the president of the Louise Group and also one of the richest people on the Forbes list. He invited Miss Cullen to Gem”
Kimberly’s words indicated that Angela could not afford to offend him.
Angela rolled her eyes and chuckled. The president of the Louise Group? It turns out to be you. But you don’t seem to have good eyesight.”
She spoke with a faint sneer in her voice. She almost blurted out that he was turning a blind eye.
Pierre remained expressionless, but his cold aura deterred all the onlookers.
He stepped forward and looked down grimly at this woman who dared to despise him.
He was about six feet tall, while Angela was at most five and a half feet tall, but she wasn’t deterred by him at all.
In Pierre’s memory, no woman had ever dared to treat him this way before.
As he approached, Angela caught a whiff of a faint scent.
The smell was so familiar and reminded her of the night five years ago.
The scent lingered in her nose and captivated her that night. That man was lean and muscular with endless desire… Angela was lost in th
thought.
A blush rose to her cheeks.
Seeing that. Pierre and Kimberly decided that she was indeed guilty.
*Security, get this lady out of here
Hank who had been standing behind herre, knew that it was time for him to do something when he saw his boss’s expression.
“Wait, don’t you want to see the evidence!”
Angela looked up at
at Fierre with sarcasm and arogance in her beautiful eyes

one had ever asked him to apologize.
e asked in an aloof voice, “Do you know what you’re talking about?”
ngela replied courteously. “Mr. Louise, I know that with your power and resources, it’s easy for you to investigate someone. You don’t have to put ie on the spot in front of the company building.

fier that, she took out a thick stack of certificates from her bag, including the one

he looked at Kimberly with a sneer.
imberly turned pale, thinking, “No way. This bitch can’t really be Anthea, can she?”
he reached out to snatch the certificates from Angela’s hand
at Angela moved aside quickly.
Jorry.
rry, Miss Simpson. You didn’t hire me, so you’re not qualified to see this”
he handed the certificates to Pierre, saying, “Is this how you treat all your guests. Mr. Louise?
Do you allow your employees to treat the design director you hired this way?”
ihe deliberately made Kimberly our to be one of Pierre’s employees

the gritted her teeth silently while observing Angela and then Pierre, who was checking the certificates, wondering how he could be so calm.
Her face turned paler and paler as she thought, “is she really Anthea?
Angela looked at her with a faint smile.
‘Are you ready to apologize to me now, Miss Simpson? I’m a forgiving person, and all I want is a sincere apology from you.”
Kimberly glared back at Angela, her hands elenched into fists so hard that her nails dug into her flesh. However, she didn’t feel it at all,
She had never thought that Angela could really turn out to be Anthea
She had prepared the red carpet and flowers to welcome Anthea, but the designer turned out to be Angela!
At that moment, Kimberly felt a burning pain on her face as if someone had slapped her hard.
After five years, Angela came back as a world–famous jewelry designer.
Pierre closed the certificates and handed them back to Angela. “Welcome, Miss Cullen”
Everyone present was shocked
ked by Angela’s real identity.
Angela put the certificates back in her bag and smiled at Pierre.
“Mr. Louise, I haven’t signed the contract yet, so you don’t have to welcome me. Besides, I’m now not sure that you’re sincere. Why don’t we go back and think about it!
If your company really wants me to join you, you must offer me a sincere apology. That’s where I draw the line”
After that, she left without looking back.
Now Angela was no longer the unknown designer from five years ago.
Only she knew how much she had paid over the past years.
Her efforts were not in vain, and she proved that she was worthy of the support she received from Elsie and Marcy.

Chapter 4
Everyone fell silent. The gem ornament in Angela’s hair made a crisp sound as she walked, seemingly laughing at those who despised her.
Pierre glanced at Kimberly indifferently and said through gritted teeth, “You should know what to do, right?”
His voice was frighteningly cold
“Let me explain, Pierre.”
She rushed forward to grab his sleeve.
He withdrew his hand and said in a colder voice, “I don’t need an explanation. I only want results.”
After that, he also left.
The lively entrance of the company building suddenly became quiet.
The employees from administration, who had been watching the fun, slipped back to the office quickly.
They were not stupid, knowing that they would definitely be severely scolded if they stayed there any longer.
But after offending such a famous jewelry designer, they were worried that Angela might get back at them.
Pierre sat in his Maybach and said to Hank lightly, “In three days, I want to know everything about Anthea, from the day she was born to now.” Hank hurriedly agreed with a nod.
He offended Angela by asking the security guards to chase her away today.
He felt quite regretful.
He secretly wiped away his sweat and stole a glance at Pierre.
Pierre was resting with his eyes closed, looking as expressionless as usual.
Only then did Hank secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
