Chapter 52 Lily knew she would be rejected but did not expect to be turned down this quickly. Jenny Thorn’s office door was shut tight, and her assistant would not let Lily in. She claimed Jenny was currently in a meeting and that non-permanent staff could not enter. Half an hour of waiting later, Lily realized that Jenny’s meeting would not end anytime soon.

It could only mean that something was going on between him and Lily.
