All Chapters of You Left Me for Your Secretary, so Why Are You Begging at My Wedding?: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Jane hesitated for a moment, about to say something, but one of her friends suddenly called her over.“I’ll be right back. You go ahead and hang out for a bit.”“Okay.”After Jane left, Liz sipped a few glasses of fruit wine. Her head started to feel a little fuzzy, so she found a quiet spot to rest for a while.She hadn’t planned on falling asleep, but before she knew it, she had dozed off. By the time she woke up, the private room was still buzzing with music and laughter.Glancing at her phone, Liz saw that it was already past eleven. She had been asleep for over an hour. Since Jane didn’t seem anywhere near done for the night, Liz waved to let her know she was heading out and quietly slipped away.As she stepped outside the lounge, she was surprised to see snowflakes drifting down from the sky.A spark of joy lit up her eyes.Winters in Stanley City were bitterly cold, but it rarely ever snowed. In all her years growing up, she could only remember it happening once or twice

Zac’s expression darkened, nearly stormy. “Liz, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”Two hundred million was enough to buy the entire store. And yet she dared to throw out such an outrageous price.Liz looked at him without a trace of emotion. “Weren’t you the one who asked me to name a price? If you can’t afford it, don't act like some nouveau riche showoff. It just makes you look ridiculous.”Without sparing either of them another glance, she turned to the associate and handed over her card. “Please wrap this up for me.”She had planned to look at a few more pieces, but the mood had been completely ruined. There was no point in staying.The associate, quick to catch the shift in tone, nodded immediately. “Of course. Right this way.”After running her card, the associate returned with the boxed bracelet and a polite smile. “Thank you, Ms. Smith. We hope to see you again soon.”Liz accepted the bag, turned, and walked away.As she waited for the elevator, Xena and Zac fol

“I understand, Mr. Quinn. Thank you,” Liz said calmly.Warren let out a quiet sigh and said slowly, “Ms. Smith, if Mr. Lincoln insists on using these kinds of tactics to steal your clients, there’s really nothing we can do to stop him. Maybe… maybe you should go talk to him?”After all, they used to be a couple. If Liz reached out herself, there might still be a chance to turn things around.Liz stood and looked at him. “Alright. I’ll think about it. If there’s nothing else, I’ll head out now.”“Alright.”Back at her desk, Liz stared at her computer screen for a while. Then, as if finally making up her mind, she stood up, grabbed her bag, and walked toward the exit.Hunter noticed and quickly got up to follow. “Liz, where are you going?”“I’m going to see someone. You don’t need to come. Go back and keep reviewing the case files.”Sensing something was off, Hunter lowered his voice. “Let me go with you.”“No. I’ll be fine on my own.”He didn’t argue, but he also didn’t leave.

Liz pressed her lips together. It was true. She had never been to an amusement park.Before she turned sixteen, she had grown up in a rural town. Theme parks weren’t something she had ever even seen.After she was brought back to live with the Smith family at sixteen, she once passed by an amusement park and asked what it was out of curiosity.Her mother had looked at her with visible irritation and snapped, “You don’t even know what an amusement park is? It’s a place for little kids. You really are a country bumpkin. You don’t know anything.”Liz could still recall the disgust in her tone like it was yesterday.After that, whenever she came across something unfamiliar, she stopped asking questions. Instead, she would quietly take pictures or memorize the details and look them up on her own later.When she didn’t respond, Hunter looked genuinely surprised. He hadn’t expected someone her age to have never been to an amusement park.“In that case,” he said with a grin, “I guess I’

As soon as she finished speaking, the people nearby all reacted. Their expressions shifted, and the looks they gave Liz turned cold and unfriendly.Zac’s face grew darker as he watched Liz stubbornly refuse to ask for help. His fingers tightened around his wine glass, his knuckles turning white.The woman quickly picked up on the shift in mood. She turned to a nearby housekeeper and snapped, “Well? What are you waiting for? Get this party crasher out of here. If she ruins Ms. Stone’s birthday celebration, are you ready to take the blame?”The housekeeper was new and didn’t recognize Liz. Since the woman was dressed in expensive designer clothes and Liz looked more modest by comparison, she quickly took the woman’s side.After all, everyone attending this party was either wealthy or well-connected. Offending a guest could cost her the job.“I’m sorry, miss, but I need you to leave right now. Otherwise, I’ll have to call security.”Liz frowned slightly, her expression cooling. “I’m
