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."

The manager adjusted his clothes, gesturing for the woman to sit aside. He raised his brows slightly. "Resign? Why the sudden decision to quit?"

Karina bit her lip nervously. "It's for personal reasons. I really can't continue working here."

The manager leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms over his chest. A faint, amused smirk played on his lips as he looked her over. "Karina, you know the rules in this business. It's all in black and white in your contract. Leaving before the agreed period means you'll have to pay a penalty. But..."

He deliberately paused, his gaze sweeping over her in an unsettling manner.

"You're a pretty girl. If you finish your last night shift properly and hand everything over smoothly, I'll approve your resignation. What do you say?"

Karina's heart sank.
