Seeing that no one would save her at the moment, Pearl went on her knees and apologized to Wendy.

“I am sorry.”

Wendy remained indifferent. If it were before, she would be sympathetic that Pearl was about to lose her job.

The voices of some employees filled the air.

About an hour later.

On the other hand, Wendy had her head on her desk.

She was distracted when she heard a strange and masculine voice.

Everyone present paid close attention to the young man who brought the gift basket but they were shocked that the gift was for Wendy.

    Meanwhile, Hilton visited Julius mansion at about eight o' clock in the evening.The mansion was beautifully decorated with the lights illuminating every part of the house. Taking each step, he observed everything that was happening; from those walking about to those exchanging pleasantries.A middle aged woman approached Hilton and shook her head.

    Very early the next day, Wendy walked into the sitting room. She found Hilton dressed in a casual outfit and holding a small bag.It was as if he was ready to go and play golf but Wendy couldn't bring herself to accept that.Wendy looked at the wall clock and the time was 05:30 am. “Where are you going this early? Why do I feel there's something suspicious about you?” Wendy said with an arched brow.“Is that how you greet someone in the morning after nagging last night?” Hilton questioned with a deep tone.“Don't answer my question with a question. Is it a crime that I want to know about your movement?”“Yes, it is a crime. I can see that you want to continue from where you stopped yesterday.” Hilton heaved. “I don't have time for this.”His words made a surge of anger flow through Wendy's veins.“Who does this man think he is?” Wendy said inwardly.Hilton couldn't explain why he felt reluctant to throw Wendy out of his house despite all her troubles.That must be because of the goal

    After all the documentation, Wendy left and headed to see her father and sister.“In two days’ time, we will move to the new apartment. This job is a life saver.” Wendy said happily.“Hmm, this is good news but…” Greg said.“But what?” Wendy queried as her smile disappeared.“I feel less of myself.
