Chapter 13: The CEO's Regret
News of the press conference reached Malaysia, and the elderly CEO who once employed Lili felt a sharp pang of guilt.
She called her.
"Lili… I was wrong. You were with me for so long, loyal and silent. I doubted you when you needed me the most."
"It's too late now," Lili replied kindly, though firmly. "I've already found myself again."
"I hope… you find happiness," her former boss said. "You deserve it."
Lili ended the call with a bittersweet smile. For once, she didn't cry. She just… let it go.
