Chapter 218:

Alicia's assistant could no longer keep her smile.

"We understand our place.

Your time is very valuable, Mr.

Tingey.

I'm sure you wouldn't want to waste it on us.

"

Mr Tingey grimaced.

“She lacks support and connections.

How long can she really survive in this industry? I can’t wait to see her embarrassed.

Alice's assistant fought the urge to retort, but held her tongue, aware that Alice still felt ill.

Without further ado, she turned and walked away.

Caden, who had heard him, looked away and got into his car.

Yolanda, sensing his discontent, asked softly, “What’s bothering you, Caden?”

They had just returned from an important meeting with a research manager, followed by a long conversation over dinner, but there were still unresolved issues.

Yolanda, always willing to help, said: “I will investigate this further when we get back and try to find a solution quickly.

Caden switched on the ignition, his face unreadable.

“This isn’t your problem.

Yolanda thought briefly about her previous encounter with Alicia.

Alice had turned up quite untidy.

It had been unexpected.

Yolanda commented: “When I first met Miss Bennett, I assumed she was nothing more than a spoiled heiress.

But I was wrong.

She is truly dedicated to her career.

That is unusual for someone of her background.
