"Don't worry. Stay here and keep an eye on them, I'll go and talk to Sister Winna about this."

After saying that, Agnes walked out and left Lydia on her own. Lydia was very nervous and she subconsciously rubbed her fingers together.

In the interim, Lincoln was in his seat, smiling at Kimberly as she entered his office. He called out gently, "Miss Shell, here you are."

Kimberly frowned slightly at his tone and answered, "Lincoln, what can I do for you?"

Lincoln did not answer her but continued to gaze at her tenderly with a look which he thought was gentle. However, that look was terrifying to Kimberly. She felt extremely uncomfortable by his perverse stare. Her scalp tingled and she had goosebumps all over. She couldn't help but blurt out suddenly.

"Lincoln, I'll leave if you have nothing to say!"

Just as she turned to leave, Lincoln hurriedly got up and said, "Wait! I wanted to ask what you think of the breakfast I brought you. Do you like it?"

What the hell?

Kimberly thought for a moment and replied innocently, "Breakfast? What do you mean? I didn't see any breakfast. Please excuse me if there's nothing else. I have to get back to work."

Lincoln quickly came around his desk, rushed forward and slammed his hand on the door, blocking her way out.

Kimberly's face fell and she looked at him with a cold gaze.

But that gaze made her more attractive to Lincoln instead. He looked at her with a grin on his face and said, "Miss Shell, have you thought about the deal I mentioned to you a few days ago?" This sentence made Kimberly want to laugh.

She sneered and asked in return, "Lincoln, why are you asking me this if you know my answer?"

Lincoln wasn't happy at her response. He questioned," What do you mean? You... do you not want to be with me?"
