THALIAA cold stare, silent treatment, and an uncomfortable seat I have here on my first day as a trainee in the finance department. The HR guided me to my table and left without a word. She didn't even introduce me to the employees here who only raised their brows.I think they already know I'm a Carter.I heard through them that Mr. Kane is coming back from his overseas meeting. He was also the one who approved my internship without an interview or anything. I don't even know what he looks like. I don't have time to google search for his information because I'm in the finance department, not at his. Is he a friend of my family? He swiftly accepted me without interrogating why I was finding a company for my internship, whereas my own family had its own company.Anyway, I'm relieved that Mr. Kane didn't give me a hard time since I'm scared that I might lose this one chance to be on my own.My fingers fidgeted on the keyboard with my screen off. My table looks dull and empty. Only the

THALIAMy heart thrummed violently in my chest while dashing out of the elevator. The feeling of being alone with Mr. Kane was driving me insane. If I had known that he was my boss, I wouldn't have kicked him where it deeply hurt.Jeez, that's so embarrassing!Heading alone to my apartment, which was only a walking distance away from the company, I felt someone had been following me since earlier. I took a peek behind me and saw familiar faces, following my tracks while merging into the crowd of people. Do they think I wouldn't notice them?Just great, Dad! He still installed a human surveillance camera on me.We had a deal that I'll be free for three months. Is that difficult for his side? I'm an adult, and I know what good things to do and bad things to avoid.I took my phone from my pocket with a frown and was about to call Dad, but I was surprised when my phone rang. Dad is calling.“Da–”“Seriously, Thalia Carter? Kane Group? How did you approach them?” He started with a raging

THALIAMy fingers fidgeted with one another as I stood still, lowering my head to the floor, and avoiding eye contact with my boss, Damon. He looks somewhat furious at what Sarah had told him and I don't know what mistake I made earlier that made them both let out their rage on me.Sarah was furiously holding a small box where shredded papers inside.She was accusing me of something earlier but Mr. Kane came and stopped her from slapping my face. If ever that happens, that is my first slap since I was given birth. I don't know if that really hurts.“Speak.” Damon's cold tone makes me a creep, that's why I can't look at his scary eyes.“She ruined the proposal I made for the meeting later.” My eyes widened at Sarah's accusations. “I did not!”Why would I ruin someone else's belongings? Especially important documents. “Do you think I will accuse you without evidence? Let's go to the CCTV room!” Sarah exclaimed in rage.I frown in confusion. There is also evidence. How come? “I've bee

THALIARage was evident through his eyes as I laid my eyes on him. He's fuming in rage and that's because of what he just discovered this morning.“Mr. Kane–”“Did you apply for an internship to be a spy for your father and to sabotage my company?”My heart pounded furiously at the way he gritted his teeth. “N-No, no! It's not me, Mr. Kane!”“Then what about this?” He angrily pointed at the documents on the table. “Are you fucking playing dumb?”I stared at the papers and thought through if I had even mistakenly used my computer for the past few days. However, I've been in Mr. Kane's office for three days and a half.He slammed his hand on the table causing me to jolt in fear.“I-It's not really me!” I grabbed the papers and looked at the date of the transaction. “The date… It was deposited in my account two days ago. But I'm not in the office at this time. I didn't use my computer for three days. I've been working my butts off for three days here in your office, Mr. Kane.” I desperat
