At this moment, Wendy’s entire body trembled. She desperately covered her mouth, trying not to let out a sob. Tears blurred her vision, streaming down her delicate face.
Suddenly, she didn’t dare to keep reading. She was afraid of what else she might discover.
Wendy knew what she had done over the past four years. The memories were clear and vivid in her mind.
Tom and Gwen were Joshua’s friends from the orphanage. She remembered Joshua had mentioned them once before.
After reading Joshua’s words, Gwen seemed intrigued and kept asking more questions.
Wendy wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, steeling herself to continue.
This is the third time I’ve met Wendy. I only found out how amazing she is after asking Mrs. Locker. Gwen, Wendy is truly incredible.
‘She graduated from Northbright University, studied abroad at Baystate Institute of Technology, and became a young entrepreneur upon returning home. At her age, there’s no one who can compete with her.
‘She even shook hands with the vice mayor and the deputy governor. Look! Here’s a photo of my sister shaking hands with them. I found it online. It’s even been featured in the news.
‘Tom, this is a newspaper article about my sister. Look, they wrote so much about her. I’ve read it so many times that I can recite it by heart.
“Sob.”
Wendy could no longer hold it. Tears gushed out, blurring the screen even further, making it impossible to see the photo of herself.
She quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped away the tears, trying to regain her composure.
But the tears kept flowing, and the weight of what she was reading overwhelmed her.
‘Gwen, Edith, look at this. This is my sister, the most accomplished person I’ve ever met. I had no idea my sister was this incredible. It’s astonishing. We could never hope to catch up to her. Gwen, Edith, did you know that? I just heard Mrs. Locker say these things. She thinks my sister might be the most talented person in the world.
‘Today, I went to her company. Gwen, Edith, take a look at this. It’s my sister’s company. She’s the boss.
He attached several photos of the company lobby. Among them was a picture of Wendy.
Joshua apparently took these photos while he was there and sent them to his friends. “Tom, Gwen, Edith, look at this. It’s labeled ‘CEO. My elder sister is the CEO of this company. I heard over a thousand employees are working here!
When Joshua sent that message, he must have been filled with pride.

Chapter 30 Discovering His Admiration
His three friends could sense his smugness and looked down on him a little for it.
‘I want to see Wendy. I heard from Mrs. Locker that she’s been working overtime lately and even forgetting to eat. I’ll go check if she’s there.
Wendy vividly remembered the day Joshua came to her company.
Of course, he couldn’t go up to her office. The security guards stopped him, refusing to let him in.

Joshua was upset and told the security that he was her brother and wanted to see her. However, the guard wouldn’t budge and even mocked him.
In the end, Joshua didn’t get into the company.
Wendy’s bodyguard, Hazel, had told her about the incident.
‘It’s a pity I couldn’t go upstairs to see my sister working. The security stopped me. But don’t worry, next time I’ll get in for sure. I’ll just tell my sister in advance. Joshua was still upset and expressed his regret.
Then, he added with determination, ‘One day, I want to work in a company like that. I want to see what it’s like inside. Tom, Gwen, Edith, if we work hard, we also can get jobs in a place like that.
We might never be as good as my sister, but if we could be one–tenth, no, one percent as good, that would be enough.
‘Haha. You admire your sister so much. Do you treat her well?‘ Tom responded with a laughing emoji.
‘Of course. I’ll definitely treat my sister well. Don’t worry about that. I think there’s no one in the world as amazing as my sister. She’s intelligent, polite, and elegant. Oh, I also heard some big news. Wendy recently secured a huge contract. My parents know about it, and the whole family is thrilled and celebrating. From today on, she is my idol.’
