Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 775

Tanya didn't give up. She pulled out an envelope stuffed with cash-Yuna's earnings-and pushed it toward her alongside the box. "If you don't take this, you won't get anything at all." She really knew how to comer someone.

That's when I decided to step in. I pushed the door open and strolled in like I had no idea what was going on. "Well, well, Tanya. Entertaining guests, are we?"

Yuna didn't even blink at my sudden arrival. No acknowledgment, no reaction-she acted like we were total stranger

Tanya, though, stiffened for half a second before slipping her mask back on. She turned to Yuna and smiled. "This is all yours. Take it."

Without hesitation, Yuna grabbed the envelope but left the box behind, making her stance clear.

As expected of a girl raised by Hayden-she had her pride.

"Thank you," Yuna said before turning to leave

From start to finish, Yuna didn't say a single word to me. I couldn't tell if she was still mad at me or just didn't want Tanya knowing we were connected.

"If you ever want another side job, you're welcome back anytime," Tanya called after her, still fishing, even with me standing there.

"Good thing you're a woman," I said casually, watching Yuna leave. "If you were a man, I'd think you had a thing for her." I strolled over to Tanya's desk and picked up the box she'd packed for Yuna. "Don't you think that's rude?" Tanya shot back, her tone as sharp as ever. Not a shred of respect for me as her boss.
