In the end, after staring at Victoria’s unaffected expression, Yasmin
reluctantly took her seat. That being said, she couldn’t help but vent her
dissatisfaction as she bit her lip and fumed, “Didn’t you hear what they
said, Miss Victoria? They went too far! I wish I could rip their tongues out.”
“And?” Victoria asked calmly. “Start a fight just over a few words they said?
What will they say next? Is it going to be that not only was I forced to eat
lunch at the cafeteria, but I even got into a fight with the other employees
at the cafeteria because they hit a raw nerve?”
Yasmin frowned.
“That wasn’t my intention, Miss Victoria.”
“I know that, of course, but do you think you can aplish anything by
confronting them? Regardless of whether or not you fight back, there’s no

“Well, I can’t just sit back and listen to others spreading nder about you,
Miss Victoria!”
Victoria was quite touched to see Yasmin getting furious on her behalf.
She never thought that her cowardly–seeming assistant had a dominant
side to her as well.
She let out a helpless sigh.
“It doesn’t quite count as nder.”
Yasmin’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What are you saying, Miss Victoria?”
“They’re not wrong. My family went bankrupt and we can’t be of help to

“That’s not true…” Yasmin continued to defend Victoria. “You being in the

they’re saying isn’t true.”

“That’s enough.” Victoria cut Yasmin off and said, “Just get on with your
lunch. If you have so much energy, you might as well spend it on learning
the job.”
Since Victoria seemedpletely unbothered, Yasmin didn’t want to
Once they were done, Victoria and Yasmin walked through the crowd and
left. All the while, Victoria’s expression remained perfectly calm.
“Look at her acting as if she’s unbothered. It looks as if she doesn’t care
that Mr. Cadogan’s with another woman right now.”
“Tch. What do you mean she doesn’t care? But even if she does, would it

matter? She’d still be abandoned anyway. She might as well keep her cool
and maintain her dignity.”
“I bet she’ll start crying her eyes out as soon as she gets back to her
office.”
The crowd at the cafeteria continued gossiping.
s, Victoria was about to disappoint them. When she got back to the
office, she didn’t have any time to wallow in tears and self–pity. She didn’t
even have time to dwell on these things that were supposed to upset her.
There was too much work and she was about to resign soon, so she had
to find someone to rece her.
Even though she didn’t n on having anything to do with ric in the
future, he did help her during her time of crisis, so she wanted to have an
amicable separation.

Therefore, the moment the two women got back to the office, Victoria
began assigning a lot of tasks to Yasmin.
Yasmin was shocked. “T–That much? What if I can’t finish everything?”
Victoria didn’t show her any empathy.
“You’ll have to stayte then.”
Yasmin kept quiet.
She dared not say anything, but she didn’t think that Victoria was being
hard on her either.
Victoria was the one who hired her and mentored her. When the
secretaries and assistants in otherpanies went out for business
meetings, they would have to drink on their superior’s behalf, and
sometimes, they might even have to bear the brunt of other forms of
harassment by’unsavory and immoral people at such meetings.

However, she never experienced any of these things when she followed
Victoria around.

Initially, she assumed that the people who were too afraid to touch
Victoria would target her instead, and sure enough, the first time she went
to a meeting with Victoria, she was the victim of verbal harassment.
It was Yasmin’s first foray into the workforce and her first encounter with
such an incident, but as the other party was a client, she couldn’t show her
displeasure.
She was so mad that she turned scarlet, but she couldn’t say anything.
It was then that Victoria, who was sitting beside her, eyed the other person
coldly before stating, “If you’re not interested in discussing business, Mr.
Weasel then we won’t sit here and waste any more time.”
Victoria pulled a startled Yasmin up with her and left the hotel despite the

The night breeze blew against them as Yasmin stared at Victoria in shock.
“I–Is it okay for us to just leave like that, Miss Victoria?”
Victoria nced at her. “What should we be doing then? Do you want to
stick around?”
Yasmin fervently shook her head.
“N–No.”
“Exactly. Let’s go.”
Victoria gged down a cab and left with Yasmin.
“When you work with me, you don’t need to hold back whenever you
encounter these things. Otherwise, these sleazy men will keep takina

Therefore, in the time that Yasmin spent working with Victoria, she barely
had to suffer any grievances.
She knew that Victoria had to be giving her a mountain of work to do
because thetter wanted to train her up. I mustn’t let Miss Victoria down!
After cheering herself on, she threw herself into her work.
Knock, knock!

All of a sudden, there was a knock on the door. Yasmin looked up and saw
a pretty woman standing there.
She was wearing a white dress, and her long hair cascaded elegantly
down her shoulders.
“Hello, I’m looking for Miss Selwyn.”

Yasmin’s attitude was cold as she recalled how frequent udia’s visits to
the office had been, which resulted in Victoria being ridiculed for having
lunch at the cafeteria.
“Hello?” udia repeated when she didn’t get a reply.
Yasmin snapped out of her thoughts and responded curtly, “Do you have
a reason for wanting to see Miss Selwyn? She’s busy with work right now
and might not have time to entertain you.”
udia heard the hostility in Yasmin’s tone and her eyes shed viciously.
She was just about to retort when a voice rang out.
“Come in.”

When udia went in, Victoria was still busy with work. She looked up and
saw udia walking over with a lunchbox in hand.
“Are you swamped with work today, Victoria? No matter how busy you are,
you should still have your lunch. Since you didn’te over, I set some
food aside for you.”
udia ced the lunchbox on Victoria’s desk.
Victoria stiffened and said, “Thanks, but I’ve already eaten.”
udia lowered her voice.
“You can’t be worried that I’d harm you, right? I won’t do something as silly
as that, Victoria. I just brought along some food for you.”
Victoria eyed her coolly.

bring me lunch either. I’ll do as I said. You don’t need to keep such a close
eye on me.”

After a pause, Victoria pursed her lips and added, “If you’re so worried
about it, you can just keep an eye on your ric every day. I won’t be able
to get close to him if you do that, right?”
She didn’t want to get close to him anyway.
udia’s smile faded a little.
“Do you think I don’t want to? Unfortunately, I can’t enter Cadogan
Residence yet.”
“Oh,” Victoria remarked unhurriedly. “You can’t go in, but that doesn’t mean
you can’t tell him toe out, right?”
