Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

My Toyboy 15

Everyone turned to look at Lilian, and the room went quiet.

Lilian stood there in a crisp white shirt, a flowing khaki skirt, and stylish white heels–definitely a corporate look. The lace trim on her shirt collar and sleeves softened her appearance, making her seem gentle and approachable.

Her face wasn’t exactly stunning, but her features came together nicely. The warm smile she wore was friendly and innocent, much like a little bunny, which made everyone feel a strong urge to protect her.

Cynthia squinted at Lilian. Her beautiful eyes, however, were as cold as ice.

“I’m new here and just getting started, so I hope everyone can help me out,” Lilian said, giving a slight bow after her introduction. Even with an impressive resume, she kept a humble vibe, making the others warm up to her right away.

After some friendly exchanges, Lilian approached Cynthia last. “Cynthia, we’re colleagues. I’m still figuring things out, so please help me.”

Surprise registered on the faces around them. Vivian jumped in, “Do you two know each other?”

With a bright smile, Lilian added, “Cynthia and I were high school classmates and used to be best friends.”

Cynthia forced a smile, but her eyes were icy. “We were classmates, but I wouldn’t call us best friends.”

Lilian’s smile faltered, and she looked down. “You’re right. I don’t deserve to call myself your friend. My background doesn’t match up. I realize that now.”

An uncomfortable silence hung in the air. Lilian bit her lip, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears, making her look genuinely pitiful–something even a stranger couldn’t ignore.

Just then, Vivian stepped in, her expression tinged with disgust. “Cynthia, what’s there to be arrogant? Lilian is a top student from Coluria University. Calling you her friend should be a compliment, but you don’t seem to appreciate it.”

Vivian then took hold of Lilian’s arm. “Forget her. She’s not liked around here. We’re all your friends now.”

Freddie, feeling a bit awkward, quickly added, “Lilian, why don’t you hang out with Vivian for now? Oh, and the news department has a meeting at nine.”

As Lilian walked away, surrounded by a crowd, Cynthia couldn’t shake off a feeling of discomfort but composed herself soon. Lilian was a pro at masking her true self. Otherwise, Cynthia wouldn’t have been fooled for three years back in high school.

Lilian always showed her vulnerable side to get sympathy from others, playing the damsel in distress to pull someone into her corner. Just now, when she brought up her humble beginnings, it was meant to make everyone believe Cynthia was looking down on her, and Vivian had jumped to defend her.

Cynthia could hold her own, but explaining herself in front of a crowd eager to see her fail wasn’t appealing. Plus, she knew that no matter what she said, their biases wouldn’t change.

Actually, she didn’t have the best reputation at the station. She had tried to mend relationships among her colleagues but soon realized it was a lost cause. Their interests conflicted, and the more

she tried, the more they labeled her as scheming. So, for the past year, she’d focused on herself, tuning out the gossip.

Despite having a successful career this past year, she felt unhappy with the tangled web of office politics. Becoming a news anchor was supposed to fulfill a childhood dream, but leaving didn’t mean she was helpless.

Her wide–ranging interests and skills would keep her secure for life. Just her investment dividends from QUEEN alone had already secured her financial freedom.

Vive jumped in. I think Lilian would be a fantastic choice that saw some footage of her from BNC, and she’s amazing. She even fitted in as an international anchor at BNC, switching between Anmerian and Chusian like it’s nothing!”
