"Marina, Mr. Tempest didn't eat."

Marina's confusion only deepened. "Why not? Was he too busy to eat? If he doesn't have time, just leave the lunchbox in his office-he'll eat when he gets a break. Why did you bring it back?"

Her assistant looked miserable. "Marina, when I got there, Mr. Tempest was in the middle of eating. But there was a woman in his office with him. She was really beautiful."

"What?" Marina shot up from her seat.

"What kind of woman? Was she from The Tempest Group?"

"She didn't look like it. She wasn't wearing a staff badge or uniform, and to be honest, she seemed very familiar with both President Tempest and Mr. Tempest."

The assistant hesitated, then went on. "Marina, do you think she might be some heiress Mr. Tempest is supposed to marry? You know how these high society families are marriages are all about alliances."

Marina clenched her teeth at that.
