Chapter 6
I was nervous making this request and afraid they’d see my ambition, but after coming home and witnessing their mindset, I doubted the Sullivan family had decades left anyway.
Samuel managed the domestic market, and I couldn’t get in. My parents would never give me real power.
The only breakthrough I could make was overseas–I no longer wanted these Sullivan shares, but real power in my hands.
Maybe my acting was good, or maybe they still had some parental feelings for me, because they agreed.
They even promised. “Good girl, work hard. If you can develop the overseas market, any extra profits are yours!”
My eyes lit up. “Really?”
“Really.”
“Then sign an agreement!”
I quickly had someone draft one.
They looked confused but signed it, thinking I was just a low–level employee–they didn’t know I hadn’t climbed higher because Samuel’s cronies were blocking every promotion path.
All I needed was an opening–even the tiniest one–and I’d tear it open at any cost and fight my way out.
But at dinner, when Sophie learned I was leaving, her eyes immediately turned red and she got up to leave, prompting the Sullivan family to frantically pull her back.
She looked at me pitifully. “Are you applying overseas because you don’t want to live in the same place as me? If you don’t want to see me, I can move out. I’ll live in your old rental apartment.”
“No way!” Samuel frowned. “That dump isn’t fit for you! If anyone’s living there, it should be her!”
! gripped myfork tighter.
This moron boss was as infuriating as ever.
“But if I don’t leave, she will leave… I’m just the fake heiress. After being wrongly loved for so many years, how can I take her things?”
My parents immediately dropped their forks and pulled her into their arms.
“Megan, stop making things difficult for your sister. Forget it.”
“Yeah, we’ll give you some position domestically. We’re canceling your ticket.”
Like hell. I’d fought with these people for so long just for some meaningless position?
“Then I’m leaving.” I put down my chopsticks and actually left.
My parents grabbed me. “Why are you being so unreasonable? Your sister is so upset and you’re still throwing a tantrum!”
I said, “Do I have the right to throw tantrums?”
They froze.
“You won’t give me shares, won’t even let ne look at some failing overseas market. What’s my worth in your hearts that would support me throwing tantrums? You’re not sincere, and I won’t be shameless.” I pulled away and strode off.
The servants quickly brought me back.
That night, I don’t know what my parents, and Sophie discussed.
But Sophie finally stopped making a fuss.

Going to the bathroom that night, I overheard my parents talking, “If she wants to go, let her go. The overseas market has been losing money for a year. What can a low–level employee accomplish?”
“We’ll have to bail her out anyway.”
“Once she realizes she’s in the wrong, she won’t target our Sophie anymore.”
I laughed coldly and left quietly.
The next day, my parents, and Samuel, who were supposed to see me off, didn’t show up.
They called me, “Sophie’s puppy is sick, so we’re taking her to the vet clinic. You’re more independent, so we won’t see you off. Take care of yourself.” Then they hung up.
Standing in the airport, I couldn’t help but laugh–good thing I’d arranged my own ride instead of actually waiting for these people to
see me off.
But now that I was leaving, they’d never be able to control me again.
Whether I was a low–level employee or someone more qualified than Samuel to hold a high position–they’d find out soon enough.
