Chapter 62

Since Victoria joined the company, Mr. Garcia's mood had improved significantly, and Ailie was reaping the benefits too. The very day Victoria started, Ailie had been moved into a spacious new office-so it turns out, having the right connections really does make a difference.

As soon as Curtis let everyone go, Ailie sidled up with a mischievous grin.

Victoria absently rubbed her ankle, her tone casual. "Don't be ridiculous. Mr. Garcia seems to like you just fine, too. I saw your new office. It's huge."
