Chapter 1592:

Harlee’s brows arched ever so slightly. Her expression remained distant, her gaze unfathomable, yet the corners of her lips curled into a slow, mischievous smirk—half amusement, half provocation.

“A shame. You deserve a better employer.”

With that parting shot, Harlee turned on her heel and sauntered out the door, leaving Barry fuming and his secretary wishing she could melt into the floorboards and pretend she had never been there.

Barry’s eyes followed Harlee’s retreating figure with a singular thought churning in his mind—he never wanted to cross paths with this woman again.

His secretary, however, was still basking in the afterglow of being appreciated by a strikingly beautiful woman. Barry’s anger had merely compelled her to restrain her giddy delight.

Right on cue, her phone vibrated. She didn’t need to check the screen. She already knew who it was.
