Zack’s eyes lit up for a moment.
The corners of his mouth curled into a triumphant smile.
Although he quickly returned to normal, i saw it very clearly.
“Brother Lucas, what you’re saying is a bit too much. After all, you and Fiona…”
“Enough, Zack. You go out first,” Fiona interrupted Zack before he could finish.
Zack’s remaining words got stuck in his throat. He pretended to persuade Fiona not to get angry and to talk things over properly before reluctantly going downstairs.
it.”
After he left, Fiona glared at me coldly.
“Lucas, are you getting too full of yourself? I’ve already agreed to marry you, what more do you want?”
“Take back what you said about breaking up, and I won’t sign your resignation letter. Tear it up now, and I’ll pretend I never saw
Seeing Fiona’s confident expression, I found it both amusing and pitiful.
I knew that she had become like this partly because of my previous indulgence.
In the past, this kind of thing happened many times, but every time Fiona gave me a way out, I would obediently take it, continuing our facade of a loving relationship.
wanted to use this peaceful method to maintain our previous feelings, but I forgot that being constantly without temper would only make her more and more presumptuous.
She cared about Zack’s every move but ignored everything about me. Even now, she didn’t know she had already signed my resignation letter.

I laughed lightly and held the resignation letter in front of her eyes.
“But you’ve already signed it.”
“I’ve completed all the procedures and handovers. I can leave today.”
Fiona, who had been nonchalant before, changed her expression when she saw her signature on the resignation letter.
“Lucas, did you forge my signature?”
I was amused by her words: “You signed it yourself.”
“Impossible, how come I don’t remember signing this?!”
“Lucas, do you know that forging a signature is against the law? If I want to pursue this, I can call the police.”
She took out her phone, pretending to dial the police.
This was her trump card. In the past, whether it was because of Zack or other reasons, every time there was a big row at the company, she would threaten me with calling the police.
She thought I was afraid of the police.
But she didn’t know that back then, when the company was small and people were disloyal, I was afraid that calling the police would make everyone lose faith in the company’s credibility. Moreover, I loved her then and didn’t want to have an irreparable fallout over this, so I thought taking a step back would open up a whole new world.
But now, I was about to leave.
We had also broken up, so what did I have to be afraid of?
“Go ahead, call the police then.”
Seeing that my expression remained calm and that I wasn’t begging for reconciliation as she had imagined, Fiona’s hand that was about to dial stopped.
“You’re really not afraid?”
“What is there to be afraid of?“.
Hearing me say this, Fiona moved her lips, and couldn’t help but carefully examine her name on the resignation letter again.
I kindly reminded her.
“You approved this resignation when you were on your business trip.”
Fiona’s shoulders stiffened, as if she finally remembered, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Her thin lips quivered, and after a long while, she squeezed out a sentence: “Is this why you’re insisting on resigning?”
“Let me tell you, I was busy at that time, I didn’t notice this signature, it doesn’t count.”
I was amused.
“Why not? I followed the proper procedures, every step was correct, why doesn’t it count?”
“Because I say so.” She tried to muddle through like before.
This time, I wasn’t rendered speechless by her anger. Instead, I took out my phone.
“Then you can say that to the police.”
