Xander nodded.

Hazel's heart was pounding like a drum. She feared he might act impulsively, but she also wanted to see how far he would go for her.

She remained silent for quite some time.

After a while, Xander said with a darkened face, "I've reviewed the contract Jake signed with you. He offered you a 30% profit margin. I'll be the boss today. I can offer you 40%. As long as you're happy." The 10% increase in the profit margin shocked Hazel.

Sean's pupils contracted slightly. He hadn't expected Xander to be so generous.

"You'll be the boss? Do you know what that means?"

Xander's smile reappeared. "I know. Consider it compensation for my foolishness all these years. Will you forgive me?"

After a moment, Sean laughed heartily and released Hazel. "It seems you do cherish this secretary of yours. The rumors are not unfounded."

The crisis seemed to have passed. Hazel cast a glance at the calm Xander, her heart racing.

At that moment, her phone vibrated inside her bag. She stepped out of the room and answered the call. "Peter?"
