“Ack!”


    Before the doorway of the Empire Group Building, Kylie was thrown to the ground hard, and she spat out insults without caring for her image. “Why are you so rude? Is it how you treat guests at the Empire Group? Youckeys…”


    “Enough. Are you okay, Kylie?”


    Mary ran over in a panic. She’d grown up in the same ce as Kylie, but she’d never thought that Kylie bore a grudge with nca.


    Kylie’s eyes showed a viper’s venom and she pushed Mary’s proffered hand away.


    “Don’t touch me!”


    “Kylie…”


    Mary murmured, her voice low, a tinge of contempt shing through her eyes. Kylie had always acted like hot shit from growing up. She’d always held her head up high before her friends, especially after marrying Todd Small. Apparently, the man was some small manager in apany, and had bought a tiny apartment in Oakshire, which made them even more jealous.


    “Damn nca, she really thinks she’s something. Isn’t she just some bitch? Todd didn’t even take her seriously back then!” Kylie struggled to her feet. Security had gone back and only Mary was left at her side.


    “Really? She’s the beansprout you mentioned before? Do you have a grudge against her, nca?”


    Mary deliberately took nca’s elbow and lowered her voice. “It doesn’t take a genius to see that nca’s a shady character. She even bullied you in public. We can’t let her off!”


    “Wha?”


    “Oh right, you forgot. I told you that I got bullied by a delivery girlst time. That’s the one…”


    The two were a match for each other, but havinge out with Lisa, nca didn’t know about it. Lisa escorted her downstairs and said respectfully. “Madam, you don’t have to take meals here every day. We’ve always handled those little things in house.”


    There was meaning behind Lisa’s words and nca raised an eyebrow.


    “It’s fine. I’ve got free time and I can juste by.” It wasn’t that she couldn’t hear what Lisa meant, but she didn’t say anything about it. She said goodbye, then ducked into the car.


    Curtis had the driver start the car right away. Looking at the Empire Group building recede into the distance, Lisa stroked her chin deviously.


    No wonder Matthew had said she could shield him from suitors. From this half a month, it was clear that there actually were a lot of suitors around him…Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Really, they were all just employees. Did they want to fly up the rungs this way?


    No self-awareness at all.


    Not like her. She was just thinking of a moment to get something out of Matthew and go their separate ways.


    “Madam… Madam?”


    “Huh?”


    nca was deep in her own thoughts and didn’t hear Curtis call for her at all. Turning around, she saw Curtis looking at her with a stressed expression, kinda like he was constipated.


    Her lips twitched. “What is it?”


    “Uh… they’re suddenly showing news about you.” Curtis wiped the sweat off his brow and handed a phone over to nca. nca took the phone dubiously. She wasn’t some media star, so why was there news of her?


    She’d forgotten that even if she wasn’t a star, Matthew was a hot topic in Oakshire!


    nca looked at the news and her face darkened further and further. Who the heck did this?!


    “Madam, let’s leave this to the chairman,” Curtis said awkwardly.
