Chapter 1772

A strikingly glamorous woman sat perched on the manager's lap, the two locked in a tight embrace, passionately kissing. The scene was nothing short of intimate, their connection palpable.

Karina stood awkwardly at the door, caught between stepping in and retreating. She coughed lightly, trying to get their attention.

Hearing the sound, the manager gently pushed the woman aside and turned toward the door. His expression showed no embarrassment; instead, he appeared slightly annoyed. "Karina, why didn't you knock before coming in?"

Karina forced a smile, her discomfort evident. "The door wasn't fully closed. I didn't mean to interrupt. I'm here to talk about resigning."
