The people started gossiping about Sasha, for she had stayed too long outside.

“Who’s that woman? Why is she standing outside our company?”

“I have no idea, but I heard she’s here for our president.”

“She’s here for Mr. Hayes?”

Upon hearing that, the people gasped. The next moment, they started eyeing Sasha up and down disdainfully.

“Are you kidding me? A woman like her is here for our president?”

“Pfft! She should take a look at herself in the mirror!”

Sasha had closed her ears to those harsh and derisive words.

Suddenly, she recalled that she had promised to pick the kids up when she sent them to school in the morning. Hence, she grew agitated as the sky darkened.

Oh, forget it. I better fetch the kids first. I can’t break my promise again.

In the end, she left the company, her legs sore and aching. She then hailed a cab and headed toward the preschool.
