With a sullen expression, Jared walked straight into Lianne’s office.
Lianne had been in charge of the commercial side of the Blake Corporations for years.
She took care of the business division of women’s products such as jewelry, cosmetics, and personal care products.
Jared had always felt that Lianne could be easily manipulated and she could bring benefits to the company, so he
let her be.
Unexpectedly, after Preston regained his memory, she became Preston’s greatest aid.
If he had known, he would have marginalized her from the beginning.
Lianne was busy working.
She was sitting in a large office chair.
There were some jewelry design drafts in front of her.
She was not good at designing, but she had unique and good taste in selecting designs.
Just as she was reviewing the design draft seriously, her vision was suddenly blocked by a shadow.
She looked up at Jared.
“Mr. Blake, don’t you know how to knock now?” She deliberately emphasized the word “Mister”.
Jared was furious.
“Lianne Blake, do you know who you’re talking to? I’m your father! Does a father have to knock on his daughter’s
office door? Did I not teach you how to respect the elders?” Lianne Blake sneered.
“Father? Daughter? Are you joking? Don’t you only recognize Adam and Mia as your children?” “Lianne, now that
you have all grown up, I can’t teach you anymore, right?” Jared questioned.
“Mr. Blake, if you have something to say, just say it.
If not, don’t find fault with me.
I still have work to do.” Lianne lowered her head and continued reviewing the design drafts.
Whoosh… Jared was so angry that he reached out and snatched the design drafts from Lianne’s hand.
He tore them into pieces before scattering them in the air.
Lianne was not particularly angry.
There were design drafts after all.
The designers had backups.

“It’s good to be born as a woman.
When you were working with the Parks family, you were flirting with Julian.
Now that the Xander family is up and rising, you’re flirting with the son of the Xander family…” Upon hearing this,
Lianne felt extremely offended.
She retorted sternly, “No matter who I’m flirting with, and even if I’m flirting with a hundred men, I definitely won’t
become a scumbag like you.” She suddenly felt upset and unstable emotionally because she had liked Julian.
When Julian was single, she tried to invite him out for a meal.
However, she realized that Julian was not interested in her.
She rescinded.
She guarded her heart and did not dare to cross any boundaries.
She would always remember her mother holding her hand at her deathbed and saying to her regretfully, “Lina, the
happiest moments in my life.
were giving birth to you and your brother.
“The biggest regret in my life was marrying a man who doesn’t love me with all his heart.
“Back then, although your father was the one who first pursued me, I was the one who fell in love first.
“I should have been smarter and realized it earlier.
I felt that he cared more about my identity as the daughter of the Cook family.
However, I yearned for his embrace and his love.
In the end, I fell into eternal damnation.
“If I didn’t meet him in my life, I wouldn’t have such a depressing life.
I wouldn’t have been so sick.
“Lina, remember my words.
If you fall in love or get married, you must find a man who truly loves you, dotes on you, and pampers you to the
heart.
“He should not care about your identity but love you solely because of you.
“If the man doesn’t like you even slightly, you must protect your heart and not entrust your heart to him.
“Lina, I know you’re still young and might not understand.
Please remember it well.
When you grow up, you’ll understand.
At the thought of her mother, Lianne’s heart ached.
tears rolled down her face.
Jared sneered.
“See, I was right.
You’re hiding dirty.
thoughts.
On one hand, you like Julian, and on the other hand, you’re flirting with Lee’s son for the Xander family’s project.”
“Does it have anything to do with you?” Lianne’s eyes were red as she looked up at Jared.
It was only after Jared mentioned it that she suddenly realized that she liked Trevor.
She used to like Julian because she admired Julian.
She liked Trevor now because she fell in love with Trevor.
Her heart would beat fast, her cheeks would blush, and she would always want to be with him.
But her mother said, “Lina, you must find someone who dotes on you and pampers you to the heart…” “Lianne,
stay away from Lee’s son.” Jared could not be bothered to waste his time on Lianne.
He instructed firmly.
“When I was young, you didn’t care about me.
Now that I’ve grown up, you don’t have the right to control me!” Lianne looked at Jared indifferently.
This man was her biological father, but he looked extremely unfamiliar.
“Do you think I want to control you? I’m only doing this for the Blake Corporation.
I’ve worked hard for decades to ensure the Blake Corporation has a strong foundation now.
I can’t let the Blake Corporation be destroyed in the hands of you and your brother.
Lee’s son used to be a gangster with a bandit aura.
I definitely won’t allow someone like him to marry my daughter.
I also won’t allow my daughter to date him!” “Haha… You should tell Mia this.
She is your daughter.
I am only the daughter of my mother, Selena Cook!” Lianne sneered.
Jared had hurt her brother and grandmother.
When his actions were exposed, he let Michelle take the blame.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was such a ruthless and inhumane person.
Now, he was so delusional that he thought he could use his authority as her father to suppress her.
In the past, she hated him, but she still had hope for her father.
When he bought a doll for Mia, Lianne used to look at the doll in his hand with a yearning gaze.
Which young children did not want a little fatherly love, especially ones who had lost their mother? But she never
got it.
After repeated rounds of expectations and disappointments, she became colder and colder.
“Don’t forget that you still carry my last name, Blake.” Jared felt that ever since the incident of the old lady and
Katherine that old fart came over, Preston and his sister had stopped listening to him.
He was going to be angered to death by them.
“I can change my surname to Cook or even take on grandma’s maternal last name immediately.” “Alright, return
the Blake family’s shares to me.
Then, you can take whatever last name you wish.” Jared glared at Lianne.
Lianne’s eyes were filled with more disgust.
She replied with mockery and ridicule, “The Blake family’s shares? Jared, have you forgotten why the Blake family is
here today? Don’t tell me you think that Blake Corporation was founded by you alone.
“Back then, grandpa was a silversmith.
Grandma opened the first workshop for grandpa.
“Grandpa worked hard every day to make silverware.
Grandma was worried that grandpa had to work too hard, so she hired many craftsmen to work with grandpa.
“Because of their good craftsmanship, the business gradually improved.
“Later on, gold jewelry became popular.
Grandma was quick to follow the trend and began to sell gold jewelry.
She took a huge risk and opened 20 branches at once.
That was how they gained a foothold in Jadeborough.
“29 years ago, you met my mother.
Back then, you already had a girlfriend, but you fancied my mother’s identity as the daughter of a cruise tycoon.
You hid the fact that you had a girlfriend’ and pursued my mother fiercely.
“Later, my mother was touched and married you.”My mother married you with a dowry of 15 million dollars.
