But then Tally noticed her outfit!She was the heiress of a rich family. She only left to gain experience in the working world, so she could tell it was branded, limited-edition outfit at once."What's with your outfit? Where have you been?" Tally asked, confused."Albert Manor!""Mr. Albert took you to his parents?" Tally was shocked. Looks like the marriage was a performance for the Albert family, then.She knew a little about the family conflict, so she was even more worried for Kathryn now.Speaking of meeting the parents, Kathryn felt a little conflicted. Did that meeting really count? The way those people looked at her, it was like they were going to eat her up.Still, Kathryn nodded. "Mmhmm, I guess he did!""Why didn't you stay for dinner?""Dinner? They probably would have eaten me for dinner!" Kathryn huffed.When she thought about what Chris said to Franco, she felt the wedding wouldn't go smoothly. In fact, it'd be very troublesome.When Tally heard that, she kne

Brian and Black were gone!Only Kathryn and Markus were left in the office now, and Markus looked at Kathryn with a sharp gaze.Kathryn's back was covered in cold sweat. She didn't even dare to look at Markus and stammered, "Um, I'll head back now since there's nothing else to do?""You stayed in Mr. Albert's room for two hours?" Markus asked sharply.Kathryn's heart skipped a beat! It was true that no one went in during that time … but Kathryn didn't come out, either. Markus had asked a simple question, but Kathryn was very nervous because of it.Feeling his pointed gaze, Kathryn became extremely guilty. She started stammering, "Well, b-b-because Mr. Albert threw up several times that night. I had to stay there and clean the whole time."There was silence in the air. Kathryn's legs were getting numb. She was scared that Markus would keep questioning her. She really couldn't take it anymore!Markus kept staring at her pointedly. After a while, just as she was about to turn aro

Tally didn't expect Chris to personally pick Kathryn up. She couldn't tell if that was a good thing or a bad thing for Kathryn…When Kathryn saw Chris walking toward her, she was still quite nervous! So she lowered her head and said respectfully, "Mr. Albert.""What are you doing here?" Chris said.The moment she got close, Kathryn could smell the strong scent of alcohol. What was she doing? She came to see if Markus had restored the footage.But before she could speak, Markus came out of the company. When he saw Chris, he walked up and asked, "Did you see Mr. Cardy tonight?" Chris nodded. "Mmhmm."Markus looked at Kathryn knowingly. Then, he told Chris, "Brian and Black Dickens just left. Would you like to head up there and look at the footage?" Kathryn gasped when she heard him inviting Chris to see the footage. Her face paled a little! What did she say to Markus again? That Chris threw up several times during the two hours? That was her excuse. But if Chris looked at

The loud noise made Chris frown. He looked in the bathroom's direction!In the bathroom, Kathryn's heart was beating nonstop when Chris asked, "What's going on?" She froze when she heard that! She closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said, "Mr. Albert, I don't have a towel!"There was silence. Kathryn wished she could bite her tongue off right then. If Chris didn't know she was this careless, he'd probably think she was trying to seduce him again. But right now, he was mostly bothered by her carelessness. He got up and got new towels from the closet. He walked to the bathroom before saying, "Open the door."Kathryn opened the door slightly. When she didn't see anyone, she stuck out a fair, slender hand. "Thank you."Chris knew Kathryn was tall and slender, but he didn't expect her arm to look muscled. Besides that, despite coming from the countryside, her skin was still very fair…Kathryn was freezing. She quickly wiped herself dry and got dressed. But Chris only gave her

"You can still find one even if it's hard!" Kathryn's tone got even colder. The way she saw it, jobs weren't that hard to find. It's just that Maxwell was being too picky, like Tally said.He was still an intern but already desired a salary of two thousand dollars. What company would pay an intern that much? Aren't interns supposed to work their way up?Maxwell got a little annoyed when he heard Kathryn's reply. "I'm looking, aren't I? Why do you all keep nagging me?""Who's nagging you? You're the one asking for money!" Kathryn hated it when he said she was nagging him! Why was he still asking his family for money if he was so capable? Everyone needed to work hard once they were an adult. They didn't come from a rich family, but getting an education was already half the battle done.The fact that Maxwell didn't understand this meant his education was for nothing!When Maxwell realized Kathryn was standing her ground, he became timid again. "Kathryn, I really am looking for a jo
