1. You’ve Gone Too Far

Frank shoved his hands in his pockets and leaned forward. “I’m not taking away your freedom. You yourself use it to ensure your safety. After all, you get double compensation for those overtime hours. Do you still think it’s not enough?”

“It’s not just about money, Sir, but freedom.”

“You want to be free from me?” Frank raised an eyebrow in defiance. Go ahead. Face my grandfather alone and don’t look for me if you’ve become a ghost.”

Kara grimaced in annoyance. The corners of her lips twitched with emotion. “You act like this because you are afraid of being defeated, right?”

Frank didn’t budge. He didn’t expect to get a question like that. Was it possible for Kara to guess the feeling that he himself still denied?

Suddenly, Frank laughed as if what Kara had said didn’t make sense.” Defeated? Do you think Ben and I fight over you? You’re not special enough for that, Kara Martin.”

The secretary snorted lightly. “I know that you always want to be the best at everything. If I prefer to work with Mr. Wilson, doesn’t it meant you are no better than him? You hate being outmatched. That’s why you’re holding me back.”

“It’s not like that,” Frank denied quickly. “I just don’t want my

secretary’s performance to decline. You won’t be able to work well if you become the victim of that flirtatious man.”

Kara took a deep breath and shook her head slowly. She had promised herself not to be influenced by her boss’s words again.

“Secretary? Are you sure that I am really a secretary? You’re still restricting my access in your company, Sir. It is illogical if you are afraid that my performance will worsen because in the reality, my abilities are not needed in Savior.”

Frank snorted again. “Nonsense.”

“I said it as it is. Rather than a secretary, I am more like a toy for your to relieve boredom.”

Frank’s breath hitched. His expression turned tense. He just realized that Kara’s eyes were starting to fill with tears. The girl must have been unable to hold back her annoyance.

“I never thought of you that way. You’re quite a capable secretary. Even though you often cause problems, you do all your tasks well. Some of the reports you made were also quite helpful.”

“Then, please give me some leeway. Leaving before sunrise and coming home late at night is very tiring, Sir.”

Kara’s expression was firm. She didn’t want to complain. She just needed to make Frank aware that his treatment had been outrageous. Kara didn’t know how long she would be able to endure it.
