"Oh, I hope not."When they arrived at the office, Sheldon immediately dived into his work, leaving Yaslyn to spend yet another day in the security room.On the third day, Yaslyn was to spend time with Henry Warren. Henry was a top-tier celebrity in the entertainment industry with tens of millions of fans. It was his birthday, marking his tenth anniversary in show business. He was far too busy to pay any attention to Yaslyn.Awakening from a nap and heading downstairs, Yaslyn bumped into Zaylee. She smiled and said, "Yaslyn, we're planning to go shopping for some new clothes and to pick out a gift for Henry. Would you like to join us?""Sure."After a moment's consideration, Yaslyn agreed and left with them. Zaylee ushered Yaslyn into a high-end women's clothing store when they arrived at the mall."Yaslyn, you're so beautiful. I bet you'd look amazing in a dress."While the four men waited outside, Zaylee grabbed a deep green dress from

Chapter 13 The Mysterious Woman
"Let us now quieten down and anticipate the rendition of 'Goodnight,' a duet between Ms. Lyon and Henry."As Yaslyn made her unhurried approach to the piano, the ambiance in the venue hushed down to an appreciative silence. Henry appeared taken aback as the opening notes were struck, not anticipating Yaslyn's adeptness with the piano.Absorbed fully in the performance, he sang with a fervor that matched her playing. Despite the absence of rehearsals and prior collaborations, the duo managed to deliver a perfectly synced performance.Henry, clutching his microphone, glanced at Yaslyn in her black dress, causing a flutter of excitement among some fans.From the audience, Zaylee could not hide her amusement.

Chapter 14 Who Started the Rumor that She Likes Marcus?
The next day, Yaslyn was up and about early. It was her day with Yerick. He was a physician and the head of Hayes Hospital. With its five members, the Warren family was indeed full of extraordinary individuals. Yerick, at such a young age, was already a hospital director.Yerick may have appeared gentle and refined, but he was not much of a talker. Yaslyn, despite being with the Warren family for a few days, had barely exchanged more than a few words with him. They drove to the hospital together."I have two surgeries scheduled today, so I'll be quite busy. Stay in the office, and if you want to go out, remember to bring your bodyguard," Yerick told her.Yaslyn simply nodded.She spent the morning playing games, but Yerick's surgeries did not end. Driven by extreme boredom, Yaslyn decided to leave the hospital and take a stroll. She did not see Yerick again when she returned home that evening and not until the following day when it was her turn with Marcus.Marcus, the youngest of

Chapter 15 Yaslyn's Disappearance!
"Really? Who are you? Does Marcus even know you? Who do you think you are?"The woman's face stiffened before breaking into a cold laugh. "Since you have the audacity to follow Marcus to school, we need to teach you a lesson."Marcus was somewhat reluctant to intervene after learning that Yaslyn was cornered in the restroom. He would not have been bothered if it were not for his father's sake.However, when he arrived at the restroom, he was stunned. Skylar Larson and her crew, notorious bullies in the school thanks to their privileged backgrounds, made an embarrassingly hasty exit. Some with handprints on their faces, others with their hair disheveled...Marcus's mouth twitched.Yaslyn emerged, unhurried and unscathed, still wearing her black t-shirt from this morning, her high ponytail signifying youth and style."They…"Marcus glanced at the retreating figures of Skylar and her group."They wanted to hit me, so I hit them."To his knowledge, Skylar had practiced martial art

Chapter 16 Fanatic Kidnapping
"Marcus, call the police. I'll handle the rest," Xoan instructed.Marcus calmed down when he suddenly thought of Yaslyn swiftly smashing a bottle over someone's head at the bar the other night. He figured she would not let herself get taken advantage of."Got it," Marcus replied confidently.Marcus knew about his big brother's tendency to take swift action, but he was annoyed by the trouble Yaslyn had caused.Xoan drove to the school and checked the security footage of the school compound. He finally spotted Yaslyn in the footage at five in the evening.She entered the school store and came out with a black bag before heading toward the public restroom with a person in blue not far behind her. That was the last place she was seen. His gaze hardened as he immediately went there with his men.It was six in the evening, and there were only a few people around. As Xoan's men approached, they clearly heard deranged female laughter coming from inside."Hahaha! Why aren't you strug

Xoan went to the hospital room again the next morning."The hardworking eldest young master abandoned his work just to see me. I'm truly flattered!"Yaslyn smiled and handed him an orange slice. "This orange is really sweet. Want one?"When he did not accept her offer, Yaslyn popped it into her mouth. "Suit yourself.""Dad told me to come take care of you. Don't read too much into it," Xoan said."Oh, I'm not thinking much," Yaslyn said, displeased.Xoan pursed his lips and pondered for a moment. "I have a question. How did you break the San Jose Valley record when you're from a small town? How did you get access to race cars?"The woman was too mysterious. She came from an ordinary background, but she kept doing unexpected things.Yaslyn finished the last orange slice, smiling as she wiped her mouth. She casually explained, "It's just something to pass the time when I'm bored. Why do you care?"Xoan's mind raced when he saw how nonchalant she was.First, it was her connectio

Chapter 18 An Old Acquaintance Provokes
"Xoan!" Marcus exclaimed indignantly.However, Xoan held the highest position in the Warren Group, so Marcus could not refute and could only silently clench his fists.Yaslyn smiled kindly. "I doubt that my employment in the Warren Group will affect you. Besides, you're a brat who hasn't grown up yet."Marcus completely lost it when he heard her response. "You wretch! Did you use a magic potion to befuddle my dad? You'll only bring trouble! Who knows what havoc you'll wreak when you enter the company?! Also, I'm already eighteen years old. Eighteen!""Okay, okay. You're a grown-up."Yaslyn could not be bothered to argue with a mere brat.In any case, it was already decided that she would join the company. No matter how annoyed Marcus was, he could only accept reality.Xoan knocked on Yaslyn's door early the next morning and took her along to work.He placed Yaslyn in the design department as an ordinary employee.She smiled and greeted her colleagues around her. As she sat dow

Chapter 19 Xoan's Discernment
For the past two days, Yessica would hurry off with a disheartened expression whenever she saw Yaslyn. However, upon seeing Yessica's ominous gaze, Yaslyn felt she was brewing something big.In the company lounge, Yaslyn coincidentally met Sheldon drinking coffee. He winked at her and jokingly said, "I heard that Xoan punished Yessica for you. You're quite an important woman."Sensing the sarcasm in his words, Yaslyn felt uncomfortable but remained calm on the surface. "What? Are you, the Vice President, jealous that I snatched away your big brother's favor?"Sheldon froze for a moment."I'm merely returning the joke since you started it."Yaslyn calmly took a cup of coffee and leisurely savored a sip. She was seldom defeated in verbal sparring matches.Aside from her, no one had bested him in a battle of wits. She was the first.Intrigued, he said, "We'll see."As Sheldon left with his coffee, Yaslyn noticed his back was similar to Xoan's and fell deep into thought.As expect

Chapter 20 She is Anny
Xoan was doubtful. "What evidence do you have to support her plagiarism?""The creative concept for this design is taken from Anny, a student from a renowned international university. This country bumpkin obviously plagiarized her!" Yessica exclaimed through gritted teeth as she handed over the evidence she fabricated.Yaslyn glared at Yessica."I can't believe Yaslyn was faking it all along!""It's fine if she can't come up with something, but plagiarizing is unacceptable!""How can someone like this remain in our company?"Whispers buzzed around as Xoan looked at Yaslyn. Her confidence made him feel extremely assured, as if he was certain it was not Yaslyn's fault.Still, he wanted to hear her response."Yaslyn, do you have anything to say?"Yaslyn smiled and nodded. "You're right. I did borrow some creative ideas. You're quite observant."Yessica felt she was guaranteed victory and became arrogant."Take a look at this country bumpkin. She was useless back then, and now s
