A snap broke Everly's daze. She blinked her eyes and saw Mary waving her hand at her. Trying to get her attention. "What is it, Mary?"
"What's wrong, miss? You are constantly in a daze after you leave the director's office. Did the director approve of your leave?" Mary asked.
They are currently sitting in a cafe. Taking an afternoon break before going home. Mary had booked this private table for them earlier. Besides, with Everly's popularity, it would be impossible for people not to recognize her immediately.
Mary was right. She had been constantly in a daze after they left the agency. It's because of the unusual tone and anxious expression of the director himself. It bothered her.
She couldn't easily ignore that scene and, at some point, she believed that it had something to do with the rumored manager.
"You can just send the approval report to my manager. She will hand that to me so you don't have to trouble yourself, director." Everly propo
The morning of the next day came but they still didn't reach Manager Kim. Everly had already tried calling her several times but no one answered. As she paced back and forth in the living room, holding her mobile phone in one hand. Still calling her manager."Where are you, Manager Kim?" Her voice tightened as worry flashed in her eyes. She didn't have a chance to take a nap last night because of it. She had already asked Mary to go back to her apartment yesterday.She refused at first but after a couple of convincing, she agreed disapprovingly.Suddenly, a strong banging sound on the door made Everly stop. "Miss! Miss!" Mary's shouting voice was heard next. Everly hurriedly opened the door. Mary immediately entered the room.Her breath quickened and her eyes looked eagerly anxious. "What's wrong?" Everly asked."Miss, it's about Manager- Manager Kim. She-" She stammered."Okay, take a deep breath. Calm down." Everly pressed her palms on her
Manager Kim immediately rushed forward and grabbed Everly's arms slightly. Everly stared at her and Manager Kim spoke in a low voice. "What the heck are you doing Everly? Stop what you are doing right now."Everly gently removed her hands from her and she pinched them slightly. Her lips formed a gentle smile and she spoke in a soft tone. "It's okay Manager Kim. I got everything planned out. Don't worry."Everly looked back at Mr. Lawson who is seething in anger. He stared daggers at her, which Everly ignored.She looked towards the darkening expression of the President and confidently said, "So, decisions everyone. Manager Kim leaves, then I leave. A few million won't cause me that much. But can you guys afford the consequences later?""Are you threatening us, Ms. Everly Park?!" Mr. Lawson spoke angrily. His face went red and he slammed the table with his fist. Everly didn't back down and stared at him coldly."If you call it threatening, then yes,
When they returned to Everly's apartment, Mary squealed gleefully. "You are so amazing, miss! Especially that part where you threatened them! That look from Mr. Lawson is so amusing to watch. Hahahaha!"Everly was amused at how Mary acted. A smile formed on her lips when she squealed a laugh while recalling the scenarios that happened in the conference room."Especially that part where you said, 'How about I terminate my contract with this company right here, right now'. That look on their faces. Miss, it's really fun to watch." Mary laughed so hard that her cheeks reddened. Her eyes squinted in delight."Okay. Okay. Enough with that, Mary." Manager Kim said. Mary immediately halted and took a seat on the sofa.Manager Kim went into serious mode and looked intently at Everly. "You shouldn't have done that, Everly.""It's fine Manager Kim. I have everything covered." Everly held her hands gently, assuring her that everything would be fine."B
Everly called Manager Kim to her apartment. Around 9 o'clock, Manager Kim knocked on Everly's apartment, which the latter opened immediately.After taking her seat, Manager Kim asked. "Is there something wrong, Everly?" Everly shook her head. With her usual calm voice, she said, "I'm planning to schedule the press conference next week. Please organize it for me.""Are you really sure about this, Everly? There's still time for you to change your mind." Manager Kim proposed. In her mind, it's okay if she lost her job. She doesn't want Everly to get entangled in her mess.Everly gently held her hand. "It's okay Manager Kim. I can handle it. Trust me.""But Everly, we're still not sure if we will win this. We haven't contacted Dr. Lee yet, which is a very big help to us. And Dr. Wu is also out of reach. The hospital said he filed a leave."After their discussion of Manager Kim's issue, Everly directly wrote a message to Dr. Lee. However, she waited and
In an exclusive hotel suite, inside the bedroom, a woman dressed in a short fitted red dress crawled towards the man lying naked on the bed. Her hands touch his chest and begin to fall in excruciating slow designs.Mr. Lawson lies still on the bed while his hands roam toward the woman's body, slowly unzipping her skimpy red dress. Patricia stood up and removed all the clothes on her body, leaving her naked.Mr. Lawson's eyes sparkled with lust as he stared at the woman's body. Patricia mounted him and sat at the top of him. She smiled seductively and slowly rounded her body, which heightened the l*stf*l atmosphere permeating the room.Hours slipped so fast. The steamy activity ceased a little as both of them lay on the huge bed, completely naked. Patricia's head rested on Mr. Lawson's chest and used her fingers to draw circles on it. While Mr. Lawson's hands went to Patricia's br**st and he gently played on them."It will be Everly's press conference tomo
"Everly, are you ready?" Manager Kim walked inside the room. There she saw Everly standing in front of a mirror, wearing a long-fitted brown dress and a cream-colored leather jacket. Her hair was tied up in a lower bun with some hair loosened around to accentuate her face."Everly, you look gorgeous as ever." Manager Kim couldn't help but compliment her. To Manager Kim, she was the only artist that could pull off any clothes and hairstyles. No matter what Everly wears, she can still come out gorgeous.Everly smiled while looking at her reflection in the mirror. "Yes, Manager Kim. I'm ready.""Let's go. Everyone is waiting for you."They are currently at The Royal Hotel where they are doing a press conference. Ever since the news spread, a lot of people have been paying attention to it. Even Everly's fans protested about it.A lot of her fans commented that she doesn't have to protect that kind of manager. That Manager Kim is just a replaceable one.
"Miss Everly, is it true that you faked the report to save your manager?""Miss Everly, why did you fake the report? Did your manager threaten you?""Miss Park, what can you say about how this event turned out to be?"Everly got attacked by so many reporters. Fortunately, there were already guards stationed near the stage so they managed to stop them from going forward.Despite the wild reporters, Everly's eyes remained on the man on the stage. Her patience had finally snapped. What she hated the most were those hypocrites. Just like this doctor spouting lies just to reap benefits.Everly stood up and walked closer to the man. Her eyes got colder and colder. Dr. Wu got surprised at her actions and moved a step back. "What are you doing Ms. Park"Everly stopped when they were one a meter away. "How much did he pay you?"Cold sweat broke down on him. He became nervous all of a sudden. "I-I don't know- know what you are talking about." H
Mr. Lawson slammed the door to his office. "SECRETARY CHOI!"His voice was so loud, so thunderous, that it made Secretary Choi, who hurriedly went inside, jump in fright. Mr. Lawson became a different person. His eyes had warped into a miserable black. The frown on his face makes it startling to look at."Ye-Yes sir" Secretary Choi stammered. He was paralyzed on his spot, the menacing figure of Mr. Lawson is so frightening, making his heart palpitate so fast.He balled his fingers into a fist and slammed his hands on his office table. When Mr. Lawson saw the vase on the table, he immediately smashed it on the ground in his anger."TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED BACK THERE?! WHERE DID THAT DR. LEE COME FROM?!"Secretary Choi jumped in fright. He lowered his head, refusing to look at him. His body is trembling slightly because of the fear."I- I don't know sir. O-on the r-report gi-ven, Dr. Lee wasn't me-mentioned." He nervously said. Terror sucked the
