Chapter 1164
‘But now, as an educated man, I’m facing jail time, big time. Talk about irony.’
“There’s no need to rack your brain for the answer. There’s no way that I’m telling you that.” Hector
looked at him, smiled, and added, “You can try to guess the answer when you’re in there. After all, you’ll
be released someday in the future, so maybe you’ll find out about it later on in life.”
Liam seemed to be exhausted. His lips were so dry and stuck to each other that he could not even
squeeze a word through his lips. Thus, Hector ended the 10-minute visit in less than a few minutes.
As soon as he left the precinct, he received a call from Linda.
When Hector returned to the apartment, Linda was standing downstairs and blocking his way.
The moment Hector appeared at the apartment entrance, she rushed up and slapped him.
Hector, who got slapped, turned his head to the other side due to the sheer force. He did not say
anything while Linda grabbed him by the hem of his collar angrily. “You just can’t bear to see me live a

invested in him!”
She met Liam while working at a bar after being kicked out of the Zimmermans’ residence. Apart from
how well Liam had been treating her all this while, she was with Liam because he had also promised her
he would support her in her journey of climbing up the social ladder and achieving a higher status in the
future.
She had always known that Liam was a playboy but never cared about it. To her, it was normal for men
to be with a few women. What’s more, she had spent all the money that she had saved for herself on
Liam. She would even try to introduce wealthy women to Liam at the bar. She had been working so hard
for him, hoping that Liam could fight his way into the upper-class circle and save her from her misery.
However, everything was ruined now!
Hector took a deep breath and said calmly,’ Linda, if you’re short of money, just go and get yourself a
job.” “A job?” Linda pushed him away. “Why would I go get a job? So that I can be at the mercy of others
just like what you’re doing
to yourself now?
Hector pursed his lips helplessly as he did not expect his sister to be this outrageous. He tried to
persuade her, “Linda, wake up already. Liam has never been sincere to you. He was just using you!”
“Shut up! You just can’t bear to witness as I live a good life!” Linda roared. “If you think Liam’s cold
blooded and ruthless, you people are even more cold blooded and ruthless than he is. Otherwise, you
wouldn’t have sent me to the Zimmermans. You people are the ones who have ruined me!”
She turned away and left angrily. Hector stood rigidly under the eaves. ‘The reason she’s become
someone like this is that she was forced to get married to Jimmy Zimmerman four years ago. The
torture that she suffered while she was staying with the Zimmermans has become a nightmare that has
scarred her for life. She hates the Vanderbilts, so there’s no way that I’ll be able to persuade her.’
At Soul…
Maisie was sitting in the conference room, and she asked Lucy to present the jewelry series that Soul
had released for this season, which was known as the ” Prosperous Baroque”.

“Prosperous Baroque” would be Soul’s first attempt at integrating their jewelry with the baroque
designing language.
After handing over the publicity plan to the publicity department, Maisie suddenly opened her mouth. “I
plan to assign the task of designing this new series of jewelry to Naomi.”
Everyone present was amazed as soon as she finished speaking. Naomi was a designer who had just
joined the team and had not released any works, so a newcomer would take up the project’s main
designer position?
Even Naomi, one of the attendees of the meeting, was astounded. She looked at Maisie. “Ms. Vanderbilt,
but I—”
“You’re good at designing classical jewelry,” Maisie interrupted her. “You’ve joined Soul, and you’re now
one of our company’s jewelry designers. You’ll have to prove to me with your designs that I haven’t made
a mistake in hiring you.”
Naomi opened her mouth but did not utter a single word.
‘I’m now one of Soul’s many jewelry designers. So how can I assume my identity as a designer of this
company if I reject this opportunity straight away?’
