“Something’s up?” Cecilia a guide to winning Hilary’s favor was a private deal between us. Surprisingly, Hogan had gotten wind of it.
Ironically, in this guide, when it came to the section about food, I had emphasized repeatedly that Hilary hated white pepper.
I figured if Hogan had even skimmed through the guide, he’d see right through some of my thoughts.
However, my act of deliberately “confessing” had backfired, and I had slapped my own face.
I felt a tightness in my chest but managed to keep my cool, sneaking a glance at the guy a couple of steps away, without jumping in with a response.
When I think about it, that mother–daughter–in–law handbook was a good five or six pages long, with

nitty–gritty details on Hilary’s do’s and don’ts, from eating to dressing to living. As the President of Rainbow Capital, he probably didn’t have the leisure to read it from beginning to end.
Maybe I was overthinking it.
Upon sorting it out, I felt somewhat steadier and said in a calm and collected tone, “Since Director Irwin joined, she’s done a lot for the company. Helping her means relieving your worries, doesn’t it, Mr. Zade?”
“Then keep relieving my worries,” The man’s voice became inexplicably more rigid, and colder, “Why are you playing both sides today?”
Upon hearing those words, ‘playing both sides‘, I instantly got the hint–Hogan was convinced I’d done the white pepper thing on purpose.
“I’ve got a question too,” I said, with a light smile and a soft voice, “Mr. Zade, why do you think I would do such a thing? What good does angering an investor’s mother do for me?”
At that, Hogan’s brows furrowed, and he took a step closer, giving me a hard stare, saying in a low voice, “Yeah, what’s in it for you, Ms. March? Don’t tell me you’re eyeing Mrs. Zade’s spot?”
Teasing intermixed with ridicule, Hogan’s tone was harsh, and those piercing eyes were inscrutable.
It made my heart flutter.
“Mr. Zade, you really have a knack for humor,” I dodged his gaze, trying to keep my tone as natural as possible, “If Director Irwin heard that, it could stir up some trouble.”
Before I could finish, he suddenly stepped even closer. Alerted, I took two steps back, finding myself pressed against the car door.
And Hogan was right before me.
