It was because the person standing in front of Selena was her male manager. “Mr. Rhodes, do you live


    here?” Selena asked in surprise. Jeffrey nced at her and said, “Yes, I live here.”


    Selena entered the elevator awkwardly. Subsequently, Jeffrey asked, “Do you live here as well?” “M-My


    cousin lives here.” Selena was slightly nervous as she replied. “What position does your cousin hold in


    thepany?”


    “S-She works at the level of the president’s office “Oh! That makes sense then.” The elevator stopped


    at two levels below them, and two people entered the elevator. They greeted Jeffrey warmly. “Hi, Mr.


    Rhodes.”


    At that point, Selena was shocked to discover that everyone knew each other. Furthermore, she faintly


    remembered that one of them was the director of the Finance Department. “Why does everyone live


    here? This is such a coincidence, Selena interrupted.


    “This is the residential area provided by thepany for the management-level staff, so that’s why we


    all live here!” the female director mentioned.


    Selena couldn’t contain her shock and quickly asked, “Are the houses here avable for rent for the


    public?”


    “This is a residential area developed by ourpany, so none of the properties has ever been rented


    out to the public. Those who are eligible to stay here hold at least a managerial position in the


    company. Which department do you work in?” The female director couldn’t contain her curiosity and


    asked.


    At that point, Ellen was mortified. She had no other option but to say, “I-I work under Mr. Rhodes.”


    “Her cousin lives here,” Jeffrey quickly exined, just in case they misunderstood that something was


    going on between him and his female subordinate. “Which department does your cousin work in?”


    “She works at the president’s office.” Quite impressed, the female director instantly replied, “Your


    cousin’s very capable to get a job by the president’s side at such a young age.”


    Selena exited the elevator, significantly dumbstruck. So, Ellen actually lied to me! This isn’t a ce she


    rented at all! She was granted this amodation for free by thepany! How on earth did Ellen get


    this perk? The location and amenities of this residential area are way more luxurious and better than


    my area! Ugh, how could she lie to me?!


    Selena was angered beyond words and reached out for her phone to give Ellen a call. Ellen was


    coincidentally free at the moment, and upon seeing the call from Selena, she answered it angrily, “Ellen


    speaking!”


    “Ellen, how could you lie to me! The house you’re staying at right now isn’t a rental property at all! It’s a


    luxury apartment provided by thepany!”


    Stunned, Ellen didn’t expect Selena to have found out, but Ellen admitted frankly, “Yes, it is provided by


    thepany.” “So why did you lie to me? I’m your cousin!” “Yeah. Are you still in my house?”


    “Yes, of course!” “Please gather your belonging right now and move out of my home. You’re no longer


    wee to stay.” “What did you just say?”


    “Last night, you secretly used my phone and sent some flirty messages to President Presgrave. Don’t


    assume I’m unaware of things! Ellen furiously exposed Selena’s misdeed.


    Selena was taken aback by that. She didn’t expect Ellen to find out, so she ended up saying, “It wasn’t


    intentional. Your phone was by my side, so I randomly replied to a few messages. I was worried that


    you would tell me off, so I deleted the messages.”


    “Are you aware that by sending those messages, you’ve created a huge misunderstanding for me and


    President Presgrave? Ellen was enraged. As soon as Selena heard that, she was secretly delighted.


    Did President Presgrave get mad at her and told her off?


    “Why? Did you get told off by President Presgrave?” “No, he didn’t. He misunderstood and wondered


    whether I was interested in him.”


    “You could have told him that I was the one who sent those messages!” In fact, Selena hoped that


    Ellen would do that. As such, Selena’s presence would be known to Jared.

    “That’s ridiculous! I had no choice but to admit that I was the one who sent those messages. Next time,


    please don’t touch my cell phone without permission!” Ellen hung up the phone immediately after


    saying that.


    Originally, Selena had thought thatst night’s text message exchange was great, but right now, she


    was quite unhappy. At this point, she regretted her actions for teasing President Presgrave


    provocatively on Ellen’s behalf.


    After all, Ellen wasn’t the type of person to tease a man on her own initiative at all. Besides, Ellen


    wouldn’t know how to. Since Ellen had admitted to being the message senderst night, President


    Presgrave would surely be more infatuated with her and her suggestive messages.


    At that moment, Selena was deeply regretful of her actions. She had unintentionally broken the barrier


    between Ellen and Jared and had made way for an intimate rtionship between them.
