It was a complicated relationship, and I didn’t think that I could explain it clearly within that half an hour.

In the end, I could only run from it.

There wasn’t much to do when I first joined Murphy Corporation. Furthermore, Armond already had Linda as his efficient secretary. And that’s why my job was relatively easy.

“Scarlett, you need to go through these documents and read the content of the contract. Then you’ll need to arrange for Mr. Murphy’s schedule for tomorrow.” Linda gave me a brief instruction while looking at her mobile phone.

I couldn’t help but ask, “Is something wrong, Linda?”

She nodded. “I’m going to pick up my daughter in a short while. I have to leave ten minutes in advance to beat the traffic.”

I studied her appearance and felt that she didn’t look a day over forty. “You have a daughter, but you still look so young. I wouldn’t have thought that you have a daughter if you didn’t tell me.”

She looked at me and smiled. “I’m flattered, Scarlett. Thank you. I have to go now.”

With her bag in hand, she left in a hurry.

Before I could pack my things, I saw a man in a black suit coming out of his office.

“Is there anything else, Mr. Murphy?” I instinctively looked at the time and noticed that it’s after work hours. This can’t be work-related.

He raised his brow and said, “Nora asked us for dinner. Let’s go together.”

I was stunned for a moment. “She invited you?” That’s really bold of Nora.

He nodded. “Let’s go.”
