Chapter 266: Wait-what?!

Nnenna quickly shook her head.

“No, sir,” she replied at last.

But as she glanced toward the door, something inside her whispered that he was onto her.

And she would have to tread carefully.

Well, he wasn’t going to get it.

She would make sure of that.

If he wanted her to stay in the office with him, then fine.

But she wouldn’t make it easy for him to confirm his suspicions.

As long as she kept her cap and facemask on, as long as she stayed careful, he would never be completely certain.

With quiet confidence, she settled into her new desk, adjusting her seat.

She didn’t fidget or show nervousness, and that alone was enough to amuse the head manager.
