Still, she felt a little uneasy after having identally discovered that Eugene had arranged a medical check-up for Mnie.


    When she asked him about it, he just said that it was an exit examination since she was resigning.


    When she enquired with other employees, however, they told her that there was no such thing as an exit examination at LeapCo.


    With these thoughts in mind, she could not help but look at Eugene with a hint of resentment.


    After apanying her grandfather back to the nursing home, Mnie stayed to have dinner with him before leaving. It was


    already 11 pm when she headed home, and there were few people left on the road. Mnie floored the elerator, and the car

    ring white light appeared ahead that Mnie abruptly snapped out of it. She pulled the car to the side of the road..


    Resting her forehead on the steering wheel, she breathed heavily, her throat feeling dry and painful. When she finally arrived


    home, it waste. The moment she opened the door, however, she saw Eugene sitting there on the sofa.


    Mnie paused, leaning against the cab in the hallway to gather some strength. She heard. her own voice, dry and hoarse,


    as she asked, “Do you have something to say?”


    Eugene casually pocketed his phone and then lifted his gaze to her. “What were you afraid of tonight?” he asked, voice cold and

    She genuinely dared not think about what might happen if Eugene had said those hurtful words in front of her grandfather. Ever

    Her grandfather had praised Eugene so many times in front of her in the past, but now it was revealed that this was what Eugene


    truly felt. She had hoped that there would still be a slight sense of sincerity within the man.


    No longer wanting to discuss these things with him, Mnie only paused for a moment before asking, “So what exactly do you


    want?”


    “Nothing. | just hope you don’t forget about the medical check-up tomorrow,” Eugene


    reminded her emotionlessly.


    “What are you trying to prove?” Mnie’s voice was hoarse, her eyes on him gradually. turning blurry. Nevertheless, she stood


    up with her back straight and repeated, “Eugene, can you tell me what you''re trying to prove? Why must you humiliate me like
