    Chapter 66 Lies and False usations


    Two dayster, al 3 pm, Kyle entered the president’s office with a stack of documents. Chandler was


    working on some files when Kyle ced the documents on his desk and said, “Mr. Frost, these are the


    materials you requested regarding Miss Kane.”


    “Alright. I’ll take a look at themter.”


    Kyle eyed the documents on the desk. “Mr. Frost, the receptionist just informed me that Miss Kane


    came to see Miss Lane earlier,” he reminded.


    Chandler looked up at Kyle, iciness spreading in his dark irises. “She was here to meet Erin?”


    “Yes,” Kyle confirmed.


    Chandler pondered for a moment and asked. “But why?”


    Kyle replied, “The picture featuring Mr. Burgess and Miss Lane in Str Arena was posted on the


    Inte and spread around by many. Perhaps Miss Kane was here to talk to Miss Lane about that.”


    “Where’s Erin?” Chandler asked.

    “Miss Lane went to deliver some documents to Mr. Cross earlier. The receptionist said Miss Kane


    would be waiting for Miss Lane in the lobby,” Kyle reported methodically.


    Chandler stood immediately. He ced ire’s files in the safe and grabbed his car keys from his


    desk. After that, he strode out of the president’s office.


    Kyle followed closely behind.


    At this moment, in the lobby, Erin had just exited the elevator when she caught sight of ire.


    ire was wearing a white chiffon dress, her unblemished face slightly pale. Her left wrist was


    wrapped in bandages. Despite the tiredness suffusing her features, she was still stunningly beautiful.


    Despite being twenty years old, she still looked like a high school student with a great figure.


    In her professional attire, Erin was momentarily reminded of Matthew’s words about Chandler having


    feelings for ire in the past. Thest time ire was in Chandler’s office, Erin had not dared to look


    at her loo closely. This time, ire had specifically asked to meet her. so Erin took the opportunity to


    observe the other woman thoroughly.


    She had to admit that she was rather ufortable meeting ire face to face. Perhaps it was


    because of both of their rtionships with Chandler.


    “Miss Lane, thanks for agreeing to see me.” ire walked up to her.


    Erin smiled faintly. “You’re wee. May I ask why you’re looking for me?”


    ire’s smile was rather weak. “Miss Lane, could you please help me to the couch for a bit?”


    Erin immediately walked over and helped her to the public lounge area in the lobby. When they were


    both settled on the couch, ire asked right away. “What is your rtionship with my boyfriend,


    Matthew Burgess?”


    Erin’s gaze lowered. As she had expected, ire hade to interrogate her. That viral picture of her


    and Matthew had been circting online and caused quite a stir. The night before, there was even a


    paparazzi who trailed her wherever she went. If it hadn’t been for Chandler, who handled matters for


    her secretly, she was afraid reporters would be waiting for her at thepany entrance the morning.


    after.


    “Miss Kane, as far as I know, you and Matthew have already broken up.” Even though Erin was only


    friends with Matthew, she was ufortable and displeased to be questioned by his ex–girlfriend.


    ire’s expression shifted, the hostility she felt toward Erin intensifying. Yel, she forced her expression


    to remain polite. Her lips curved in a faint smile. “Miss Lane, Matthew and I are only broken up on the


    surface. You know all about his uing concert. Naturally, I’m very supportive of his career in the


    performing arts, so pretending to be broken up in public really does not mean that much to me.”


    Erin stared directly into ire’s eyes. ire had beautiful eyes. It was a pity they were filled with lies.


    If they were only pretending to be separated, why would ire try. to take her own life?


    Erin didn’t wish to expose ire. Instead, she simply told the other woman, “Matthew and I are just


    friends. You don’t have to worry about me stealing your boyfriend. If there’s nothing else you have to


    ask me, I have to get back to work.”


    Seeing that Erin was leaving. ire grabbed her arm and said, “Miss Lane, il you really are just friends


    with Matthew, you wouldn’t object to signing this agreement, would you?”


    “What agreement?” Erin asked, shocked.


    ire immediately released her arm. Smiling sweetly, she opened the sps of her designer’s bag and


    retrieved a document from within. Then, she ced the document in Erin’s hands.


    “Miss Lane, if there’s anything at all in this agreement that you’re unsatisfied with, you can raise your


    concerns directly with me. I will try to modify it based on your needs to the best of my ability.”


    Erin had too many questions, but she picked up the agreement in her hands and started reading


    regardless. Five minutester, her lips curled into a cold sneer. cing the document back into ire’s


    hands, she started seriously, “I will not sign this.”


    ire’s eyes shed coldly, but as quickly as the momentary iciness had appeared, she swiftly smiled


    again and said, “Miss Lane. I told you, if there’s anything you’re unsatisfied with, you can let me know.


    Please don’t just reject me like this!”


    Erin looked at the woman in front of her, who was five years younger. She couldn’t believe how


    irrational and childish ire’s actions were. Did she actuallye all the way here to get Erin lo swear


    that she would never date Matthew? How could she bring herself to sign something this absurd? There


    was no way Erin would sign an agreement that deprived her of her basic rights just to satisfy ire’s


    personal wishes.


    What a joke!


    And yet, as Erin nced surreptitiously at the bandages around ire’s wrists, she thought she could


    somewhat understand where ire wasing from.


    “Erin Lane, don’t you dare look at me like this! I don’t like this!” ire’s bandaged hands shook


    ufortably.


    Seeing that she was starting to get angry, Erin apologized immediately. “I’m sorry. If anything I have


    said or done upset you, Miss Kane, I sincerely apologize. However, I have said multiple times before


    that I will never sign your agreement!” Erin didn’t want to waste her time. arguing with ire. She stood


    and prepared to leave.


    ire stood as well and immediately grabbed her arm again. “You can leave, but not before you sign


    the agreement!”


    “What if I don’t?” Erinughed coldly.


    ire raised an eyebrow. Determination filled her dark irises. “If you don’t sign, don’t even think about


    leaving!”


    Erin couldn’t help but feel a little helpless. This time, she really understood Matthew and why he had


    wanted to break up with ire. ire really was nothing but a spoiled, rich girl.


    “Miss Kane, please let me go, or I’ll have to call security.” Erin tried her best to be professional. She


    had onlye down to see ire partly because of her own curiosity and partly for Matthew’s sake.


    ire was about to lose her temper when she spotted two men walking out of the elevator.


    Immediately, she screamed and fell to the ground. To anyone passing by them, it seemed as if Erin had


    pushed ire deliberately. Moreover, ire had bandages all over her wrists. Her pitiful expression


    was enough to win over the favors of the two rather well–dressed men nearby.


    “Miss, are you alright?”


    Erin looked at ire, who was on the ground, surprise filling her. She had not expected ire to be


    this calctive. Who was she performing for?


    Instinctively, she turned and swept her gaze around the lobby. It was then that she saw Chandler


    walking toward them with Kyle. Erin humphed coldly. So ire’s “Chandy” was here. No wonder.


    “ire Kane, your Chandy is here. You canin to him directly now.” Erin didn’t sympathize one


    bit with the woman who was trying to frame her.


    When Chandler stopped in front of them, the two male staff members who were previously trying to


    help ire fled upon receiving a stern look from Kyle. Wordlessly, Chandler knell and helped ire up.


    When he had helped her over to the couch, he asked softly, “ire, what


    happened? Why were you sitting on the ground?”N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    ire burst into tears as soon as she looked up at Chandler. Her eyes shining with tears, she replied,


    “Oh, Chandy, please don’t me Miss Lane. It’s not her fault at all. It wasn’t like she had pushed me


    deliberately. I was the one who tripped-”


    Erin stood by one side, a faint sneer on her lips. Chandler wouldn’t believe the crap ire was


    spewing, right? Chandler nced at Erin, his expression tight. “Erin, apologize to ire right now!”
