Corinne walked up to the desk, pulled out one of the chairs, and sat down on it.

“Mister Lucas, I highly suggest you reconsider your decision.”

Lucas frowned. He was not happy that she took a seat without his permission.

“Why should I?”

Corinne looked at his handsome face and said matter-of-factly, “While I was waiting for my interview, I helped you assess every candidate that walked in the door. Except for me, all the girls who came did not come for the job. Instead, they came in the hopes of getting close to you. I believe you wouldn’t want someone who’s trying to climb into your bed to be your executive secretary, right?”

Lucas laughed coldly. “That’s quite a fair warning, Miss Carew, but the fact that I won’t hire them doesn’t mean that I’ll hire you either. I can hire a man for the job to avoid getting myself into the tricky situation you so kindly warned me about.”

Corinne expected he would say that. She smiled and continued, “There were a few guys came for the interview but I overheard them talking about your body, your sexual orientation, and a few other things that had nothing to do with the job. I’m pretty sure they came for the same reason as the girls. I’m sure you’d much prefer a swooning girl secretary over a swooning guy secretary, right?”

Lucas was speechless. Corinne successfully riled him up. He was so angry that he could not even drink the coffee in his hand.

“You’re right, Miss Carew. But how can I be sure that you’re not the same as them? That you’re not trying to climb into my bed as well?” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Corinne looked him dead in the eye to make sure he knew that she was serious. There was even a little bit of disgust in her eyes. “Mister Lucas, you can rest assured at the fact I have no whatsoever interest in you. I’ll never fall for you even if you use every trick in the book to

seduce me.”

Lucas choked on his coffee. He cleared his throat and glared at her. “And why won’t you ever

fall for me?”

“Well, that’s simple. It’s because I hate you,” said Corinne without skipping a beat.

Lucas was stunned. This was the first time a woman ever told him she hated him.

“Likewise, likewise.” Lucas chuckled wryly. “If you hate me so much then why do you still want to work for me? Don’t you think find this contradictory at all?”

Corinne did not think so. “Mister Lucas, the person I hate is you. Not your company or this job I’m applying for. So it’s not contradictory at all. I’m perfectly able to keep my work and

Lucas was speechless. Every meeting with her seemed to bring a new surprise to him. It was not that he disliked her, it was just that he did not like her bullying Anya. He would not be surprised if one day,

he came to admire her courage and grit.

Not only was Corinne beautiful but she possessed a kind of maturity that was beyond her age, though she looked younger than she was. Lucas was sure her come-what-may attitude alone would set her apart from the rest of her peers in the future.

‘I’m looking forward to seeing how she will continue to blossom!’ thought Lucas.

At that moment, a knock came from outside and Edmund’s voice could be heard saying, ” Mister Lucas. Miss Anya and Mister Jeremy have come to visit you.

Hearing this, Corinne’s face immediately changed. She completely lost the composure she had moments ago. Her first instinct was to get up and leave the room.

‘What the h*ll? I get why Anya would come here but what’s Jeremy doing here as well?
