As Ian’s accusation against Lola spilled forth, Laney found herself deeply imp**ssed by his remarkable expertise as a personal assistant. The relentless barrage of queries from Ian left Lola flushed with embarrassment.
However, she couldn’t deny the truth in his words, for even she recognized her own carelessness.
But she drew strength from the fact that she had been personally hired by Leo, while Laney was merely a bodyguard, not held in high regard by the Harding family. With renewed vigor, she straightened her posture and spoke up.
“Regardless, Mr. Harding has employed me to look after you. Furthermore, I received Miss Gibson’s gifts today under his directive. As a daughter-in-law of the Harding family, you ought to honor the elders’ views and accept Miss Gibson’s contrition.”
Ian, however, was unfazed by Lola’s employer. As Laney’s personal assistant, her wishes were his only concern. He glanced towards Laney, anticipating her command.
While Laney had always revered the Harding family’s elders, she refused to bend her will to theirs. Her exp**ssion stoic, she declared, “I will neither accept Kailee’s gifts nor her apology.”
“But…” Lola’s patience waned, and she sought to interject.
“I’ll discuss it personally with Mr. Harding. Take the gifts back and return it,” Laney cut her off, putting an end to the debate. Reluctant as she may have been, Lola dared not defy Laney’s wishes.
She spun around indignantly, intending to snatch the gift and depart, only to be halted by Laney’s terse command, “Clean up the water and dispose of the shattered remnants in the trash bin.”
Fury surged within Lola, but she bit her l*p in resignation.
After a brief silence, Lola obediently retrieved a mop, dried the water stains, and emptied the trash can before taking her leave.
As Lola completed her tasks and withdrew, Laney’s seething anger began to subside. She offered Ian a gracious smile, saying, “So, I’ll be relying on you henceforth.”
