Chapter 165 Walk Into a Trap

As winter approached, the temperature of Boston had been hovering below 41 degrees Fahrenheit for a while.

Anaya said with a smile, “That’s what everyone else does. You will get used to it after you get into the workplace.”

Back then, when Joshua withdrew his investment from Riven Group, Anaya was forced to plead with different kinds of people for leniency, during which she constantly forced herself to be polite and lumble. That was how she learned to socialize

“Forget it. I’d rather not learn it.” Aracely waved her hand.

Aracely preferred to be a mediocre person. That way, she could avoid being hypocritical.
