Chapter 253 No Need for Comparison
She smiled. “I thought you were a clean and upright person. It turns out that it’s just a
facade. You’re aiming for the big fish while disregarding the small fry?” Her tone dripped
with contempt this time.
“Ms. Liora, why make such assumptions? Have I offended you in some way to deserve this
treatment? It’s
rather impolite, don’t you think?” I feigned innocence.
Since she had laid her cards on the table, I saw no need to dodge the issue. !
“Heh… Is this considered impolite?” She let out a disdainful snort. “You’ll do whatever it
takes, won’t you? Don’t act all high and mighty while secretly groveling to the big shots.”
“Oh?” I responded with a light chuckle, never breaking eye contact with Liora.
I had no intention of backing down. After all, I had already crossed her, and there was no
way to avoid it. There was no need for reconciliation,

supposedly groveled before him. I’d love to hear about it.”
I understood she referred to the favor Atticus had shown by helping me resolve the
project’s timeline.
However, since Atticus dared to take such action, he must not have been swayed by her
influence. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to kick the Thompson family out of Echelon
Group.
It was clear that Liora was also a coward in front of Atticus. Atticus was not the kind of
man who would give in to a woman’s charms.
I found my impression of Atticus improving a bit.
“In business, everyone has their methods. I don’t resort to underhanded tactics like secret
deals or bullying my way to success. I’m just a small business owner, far from having the
capital you possess, Ms. Liora.”
My words were delivered without humility or arrogance, yet they carried weight.
Please spare us small business owners, Ms. Liora, The hat is too big for us to hold up.” I
smiled gently. Well, I wont keep you any longer. See your
hup my bags and walked briskly towards the axit, leaving Llors without a chance to reply.
Johnson’s house to check on his child and Myre

At the very least, some individuals wanted to use him.
Myra was very enthusiastic when she saw me. She pulled me to see her child. The little
one was adorable and well–taken care of, with rosy cheeks. He was already crawling.
Myra complained to me about Johnson’s recent struggles.
She said Melanie constantly meddled in company matters, and the staff complained. They
said it was no longer the original Tanum Corporation.

I didn’t particularly enjoy hearing her talk about this. I had no interest in their affairs and
wouldn’t even bother with them if they hadn’t consistently obstructed my path. It would
be best if we parted ways–a
clean break.
We chatted until it was time to leave. Myra insisted on inviting me for dinner, but I
declined.
For now, I didn’t need to ask Johnson too many questions. I didn’t want to put pressure on
him. Those who meant business would naturally resolve such issues. Not many could be
as ruthless as Matthew.
This relationship just needed to be maintained.
On the way back, I aimlessly drove around. I glanced at the giant billboards on the
roadside. One of them
happened to be for Harmony.
I chuckled lightly. Come to think of it, that face did resemble mine.
Unconsciously, I seemed to have taken a wrong turn. I blinked, realizing I had ended up
heading toward
Pleca Park. In a daze, I parked by the side of the road.
