“I was the one who invited Hilda to attend a party with my colleagues, Mrs. Wallace. And I'm going to bring her to my office for an interview tomorrow,” Jared hastily explained to Chloe.
“There's no need for explanations! I'm not worried if you're with Hilda. Even if you two spend the night outside, I'm not going to say anything!” Chloe remarked, staring at him with a meaningful look in her eyes.
That had embarrassment flooding Jared. Oh my God, she's just too bold in her speech!
“What nonsense are you spouting, Mom?” Hilda flushed, and she swiftly dragged Chloe away.
After taking a few steps, she could not help glancing over her shoulder at Jared.
Following that incident earlier, her love for him had soared exponentially.
Early the following morning, Jared brought Hilda with him to the office.
However, there was no sign of anyone, although it was already office hours. They waited for more than half an hour before the employees started coming to work, one after another.
All of them had dark circles under their eyes, making it clear that they stayed up too late last night. As a result, they could not wake up on time that morning.
As for Zayne, he only arrived a little after ten o'clock while yawning all the way. The second he went into his office, he made himself a cup of tea.
“Do you know what time it is now? Is this your usual attitude in working?” Jared questioned, pushing open the door to the man's office and stalking right in.
The company belonged to Josephine, and in turn, it meant that it was his. Therefore, he was naturally irked that all the employees were late to work.
Zayne was stunned for a moment before his temper spiked, and he roared, “Who do you think you are, Jared? Don’t forget that I'm the manager here! Yet, you're questioning me? You should know your place! Tch!”
As he was bellowing, Maria walked in with Hilda. “What's wrong? Why are you flying into a rage early in the morning?”
