Chapter 0002

The next day, Candice saw Sonia again at the office but the latter was being scolded.

Sonia noticed Candice as well but quickly pulled her gaze away, seemingly in avoidance.

Candice paused for a moment before she headed into the CEO’s office.

To her surprise, the assistant supervisor of the Secretary’s Office, Lisa Lindom, was fired later in the afternoon.

Lisa was the one who scolded Sonia the same morning.

Sonia stood in front of Candice, looking afraid and youthful. She introduced herself timidly, “Candice, Mr. Elysian told me to report to you.”

Alex was right. Sonia was indeed a good girl.

Candice flipped through the documents with her slender fingers. She looked at Sonia while leaning back in her seat; her aura remained imposing even when she was seated. 1

She spoke flatly, “What did Alex tell you to do?”

Sonia grew nervous. “He told me to shadow you and I could learn a thing or two from you.”

Candice slammed the document shut and hummed a reply. She pointed at an empty desk and said, “That’s your place.”

Unlike the Secretary’s Office, there were only three people in the CEO’s office including Candice.

With Sonia joining, the only spot left was the one in the corner.

Sonia’s expression froze for a moment but she quickly regained her composure.

Candice noticed her urge to speak up and asked, “What is it?”

Sonia bit her lips and shook her head. “N–Nothing. Thank you, Candice.”

Candice sized the girl up meaningfully. She asked, “How far have you gotten with Alex?”

Caught by surprise, Sonia reacted with shock and wide eyes. She looked at Candice and nervously explained, “Mr. Elysian and I have a professional relationship. He’s a good boss. There’s nothing between us, Candice. Please don’t
