Chapter 443 Why Are You Being So Cocky?

Kate, who was Alexander’s female assistant, was making coffee at the pantry. Since they had run out of coffee beans, she went into the pantry’s storage to search for it and do some restocking at the same time. While she was in the midst of her search, she heard a conversation outside. She could tell that the voice belonged to another secretary working at the reception outside the president’s office.

“Mr. Reynolds was the one who brought the doctor over and she stayed in President Duncan’s office for almost an hour—I doubt that she needed to stay inside for so long to tend to his injury. Also, President Duncan didn’t ask any one of us to enter even once, but someone saw that there were some snacks and drinks inside, which means that it was President Duncan who prepared it himself.”

The secretary paused for a while to listen to what the other person in the call said.

“Don’t take this too lightly. I have a gut feeling that the female doctor is somewhat different from the others. President Duncan seems to know her and even Mr. Reynolds treats her respectfully.”

The conversation was a short one; it was probably because the person on the other end of the line didn’t have the patience to listen anymore.

After the call ended, the secretary who was in the pantry mumbled, “What’s wrong with her? She’s the one who asked me to inform her if there’s a slightest whiff of trouble, but now that I have done so, she’s disregarding my words. What a crazy woman.”

Kate remained in the pantry’s storage. It was only after the female secretary left that Kate emerged with the things that she wanted. Then, she casually restocked the items and made a cup of coffee before heading toward Alexander’s office.

Meanwhile, at a beauty salon somewhere in Melrose City, Kelly hung up the call before she extended her hands at the manicurist to have her nails painted.

Kelly’s female friend beside her reminded, “How could you not mind that? I heard that. President Duncan from Sunhill Enterprise is the dream man of many girls in Melrose City. Even if you have an advantage over the others by being able to stay close to him, you still have to be careful not to allow him to escape. If that happens, there will be no use crying over spilt milk.”

 

Kelly snorted nonchalantly, “I have someone keeping an eye on him so that he won’t fall into another woman’s trap. There are some b*tches who will resort to dirty tricks once they learn that pursuing him doesn’t work. Having said that, I have never seen any girls who are able to get close to him in public.”

“S*x is one of humans’ basic needs. You may have not seen it before, but it doesn’t mean that he is indeed a celibate. Otherwise, where do you think his little prince came from?”

“You have a point.” She darted her friend a look. “That woman is an exception—the one and only exception.”

“Which woman? Little prince’s biological mother?”
