Chapter 14

“I heard Jerome was injured, so I came to visit him. Mikayla, please don’t misunderstand!

A thought flashed across Kylie’s mind, and she quickly explained, “I had some documents for Jerome to sign. Mr. Blue told me about his injury when I went to his office. Jerome didn’t say anything to me.”

Mikayla didn’t even say a word. Yet, Kylie was worried about her getting the wrong idea.

Mikayla smirked. “Ms. White, let me give you a piece of advice. If you don’t want people to misunderstand you, don’t do things that might cause misunderstandings.

“Don’t address me like that,” Mikayla interrupted her, “I’m not that close to you. Don’t call me by my name.

Mikayla chuckled. “Did I say something wrong? Why should I stop?”

“Jerome, Mikayla… I mean, Mrs. Miller is right. I should’ve been more careful.”

Even though Kylie was embarrassed, she still tried to dissuade Jerome from getting

angry.
