A beloved cutie arrived at the company, accompanied by Anthony’s mother. Everyone eagerly crowded around, and though some hesitated to approach and greet, they still wore their brightest smiles and waved their hands.

However, Wendy harbored an inexplicable notion— she wanted to escape! Her mind felt foggy, consumed by an idea...

But why? That was Mr. Anthony's mother. She was the one who broke Anthony’s watch. Although Anthony might be upset, his mother was an elderly woman, maybe she would be more understanding...

If Wendy were to step forward and apologize, and Bettany was to forgive her, then Anthony might not be angry anymore.

Wendy had the intention to approach her, but as soon as she lifted her legs, she ended up fleeing instead.

Lilly sneered, “Who's that lady?” Bettany overheard Lilly and turned to look.

Amidst the crowd, the young girl spotted her immediately.

“What's wrong with her?” Bettany asked the receptionist who was leading the way.

The receptionist glanced over and respectfully replied, “She’s a new intern from the customer service department named Wendy,” Bettany nodded and instructed, “Can you tell her to come here?” The receptionist was puzzled. Had Wendy and Bettany already met? Why did Bettany call her over after looking at her? Wendy had gained a reputation for being clumsy and bursting into tears whenever she encountered trouble, a perception that had spread throughout several departments. Everyone assumed she had secured her position by crying, but now it seemed that things were not as they appeared.

With lingering doubts, the receptionist made her way to find Wendy.

On the top floor...

Wearing a somber expression, Anthony said, “I'll have it repaired tomorrow, you may leave!” Charlie observed that despite his unhappiness, Anthony managed to maintain his composure.

It seemed that ever since Lilly joined the Crawford family, their boss, Mr. Anthony's temper had improved.

“Yes, sir,” Charlie replied hastily, fearing that Anthony might change his mind.

However, just as he was about to leave, he received a call informing him that Bettany had arrived.

He promptly returned to Anthony's office and informed Anthony, “Mr. Anthony, Mrs. Crawford is here,” Anthony looked up and responded, “Please bring her here,” Charlie added, “Miss Lisa is also here,” Anthony paused for a moment, then remembered that Charlie had mistaken Bettany for Lisa. He simply nodded and said, “Yes.” Charlie was about to leave when he remembered, “Oh, by the way, Little Miss Crawford is also here.” Anthony stood up and shot him a cold and piercing gaze. “Next time, let's get straight to the point,” With those words, he put on his watch and walked out with long strides.

Charlie was taken aback, thinking the main focus should have been on Bettany.

After all, she was his mother! Tsk tsk, what a spoiled girl—although Miss Lilly isn’t Mr. Anthony’s biological daughter, their bond was closer than that of a father and daughter.

Downstairs...

The crying spirit, desperately trying to control Wendy and make her flee, breathed a sigh of relief and scurried away.

Her essence grew weaker as she rested upon Wendy's head, greedily siphoning energy.

Invisible dark energy continuously emanated from Wendy's body, one end connecting to the crying spirit while the other attached to Wendy's neck.

If someone were able to see it, they would witness a malignant spirit lying behind Wendy sucking her bad aura as if savoring a drink.

Recalling the events that led up until that point, Wendy pondered on them and inexplicably felt the urge to cry once again.

“I'm so foolish, incapable of doing anything right,” she whimpered softly. “I don’t even dare to approach Bettany and apologize...

I'm truly worthless,” “Everyone in the company hates me. Despite my hard work, their hatred towards me only grows, and they keep mistreating me,” Wendy spoke to herself through her tears. “Why is this world so unjust...” She blamed herself and sought solace in a secluded corner, shedding tears in secrecy.

The more she cried, the more the crying spirit fed on her.

Perfect... It seemed that she was a perfect host.

The crying spirit felt that half of the energy that dispersed earlier had returned, albeit slightly diminished. Nevertheless, it was better than nothing.

“After today, | must quickly manipulate Wendy into resigning and fleeing...” The sobbing spirit made its plans. “I can’t stay here forever!” Luckily, | managed to escape a catastrophe today...

Lost in its thoughts, the ghost suddenly heard a sweet voice asking, “Hey, why are you all alone?” When the crying spirit looked up, it was startled! She did not want her host anymore, so she decided to flee! In the next moment, Lilly patted her and said, “Call me Daddy!” Everyone was puzzled.

Wendy was still in a daze and muttered, “Dad... Daddy?” The crying spirit was also bewildered. Could this little pat prevent her from escaping!? For so many years, the sole reason she had survived was by fleeing her hosts.

When in doubt, always run! If something’s wrong, run away! If you see someone familiar but you don’t know them, run away! Running was her expertise, but today, she found herself trapped.

The crying spirit rested on Wendy's head, feeling unloved, and began to cry out, “Why? I've endured so many hardships. | thought this was the final chapter, but | never expected someone to remember me!” Lilly crouched down and clicked her tongue, saying, “No matter how far you run, you can’t escape!” Unexpectedly, Wendy abruptly dropped to her knees with a thud, pleading, “I'm sorry, Miss. | didn’t mean to do it!” “I didn’t break Mr. Anthony's watch on purpose! Please forgive me...” Everyone furrowed their brows.

Why did she go to such lengths to apologize? Charlie had already let the matter go and said that Wendy could not afford to replace the watch.

It was Wendy who insisted on apologizing to Anthony.

People had told her it wasn't necessary, yet she continued to struggle with it.

To be honest, such an apology was questionable...

As she apologized, Wendy cried and feigned a pitiable demeanor. She seemed determined to be forgiven, resorting to tears if necessary.

Either apologize sincerely or compensate for the damage! Someone frowned and remarked, “Wendy, why do you cry all the time? You broke Mr. Anthony's watch, yet you cry as if Mr.

Anthony has mistreated you!” “That's right, you even went to Bettany to complain. Is this your way of apologizing or are you trying to manipulate others?” Wendy burst into tears, exclaiming, “I didn’t, | didn’t mean it... I'm just begging for forgiveness...” Lilly shook her head and said, “My Mommy used to say that a crying baby simply wants to be comforted by their Mommies. But my Grandma isn’t your Mommy. If you want to cry, you should go home and cry to your Mommy,” She said with a serious tone, taking the statement literally.

However, Wendy felt that such words from a privileged young girl were cruel and belittling, accusing her of being a lowly person at the bottom.

“I apologize, I'm sorry,” Wendy mumbled through her tears. “Please forgive me, | didn’t mean it...” Lilly found it difficult to comprehend! “What do you mean by crying all the time then? Do you expect my grandmother to lift you and console you so that you stop crying? It's alright, good baby, don’t cry... Is that what you want?” Everyone's gazes shifted, observing Lilly, whose expression remained serious.

How old is she... Why is she trying to expose me? However, was not that what Wendy wanted? Although | made a mistake, all of you scared me, so you should comfort me gently and tell me it's okay.

If you don't forgive me, I'll still cry, and it's all your fault!
