“There is one more place that needs to be modified.Please tell her that this may take some time.”

Natalie had been staring at Kelly all this time, sensing something was wrong.

Natalie turned to face Laney, who was smiling at Kelly as if she didn’t notice anything was wrong.She was truly blessed with a good heart.

Kelly, on the other hand, was a different story.She looked at Laney with scorn in her eyes.

Natalie had never before seen Kelly.

Was she Garrett’s secretary? When did he get a new secretary? Kelly was beautiful and sexy.She also looked like she was intimate with Garrett.lt was completely inappropriate.

Natalie asked directly, “Mr.Harding, we haven’t seen each other in only a few months.When did you find such a beautiful secretary?”

And in a rather emphatic tone, she added, “I remember you said you would be faithful to Laney when you married her, right?”

“Don’t make fun of me, Natalie.You know I won’t break my word.”

Garrett instinctively glanced at Laney and studied her expression.

Without missing a beat, he put his arm around her shoulder and smiled.

Then he turned to Natalie and explained, “This is Kelly Astley.She is just someone my mother arranged to be my secretary.She got sick and asked for a long leave of absence to recuperate abroad.She returned to work just recently.”

In a sharp about-face from his womanizing days, Garrett was now the epitome of a devoted husband.He barely even looked at other women these days.

The corners of Kelly’s mouth twitched when she heard that, but she could only nod along and say, “Yes, it’s exactly as Mr.Harding said.”

Indeed, it was by Vera’s orders that she was by Garrett’s side.

Aside from being his assistant, Kelly was also tasked to deal with the women who came pandering to Garrett and dissuade them from trying to be his wife.She had done her job pretty well over the years.
