28

I went back to the office. My puppet waitress stood up hastily and walked over, still shaking legs.

"I was so afraid! Mr. Mike is so good-looking! He also has such powerful charm that I blushed when I saw him. Did I mess up, Ms. Denz?"

"No, you did exceptionally well."

I gave her an envelope. "Here, you deserve it."

“Thank you, Ms. Denz!” The waitress took it and felt a thick wad of cash inside.

At this time, Steven handed her a confidentiality agreement.

“I know you’re an honest lady, but for both parties’ sake, it’s safer to sign an agreement.”

I smiled weakly. "Don't reveal any details of what transpired today. If a third party knows about what we spoke in my meeting with Mr. Mike today, then I will consider it your breach of contract and sue you legally."

The waitress swallowed hard, signed the contract, and swore repeatedly not to reveal anything before leaving the office.

"Aren't Kalus Mike so heartless, I mean, supposedly? I think he is nothing but a lovesick fool! Don't you think so, Ms. Denz?"

The instant I heard Steven talk about me, I woke up to reality and smiled dryly. "Yes, Mr. Mike loves Ms. Osita so much. He doesn't mind lowering his dignity for his fiancée."

I understood that Mr. Mike was previously married and his ex-wife was treated shabbily by him. Ms. Osita picked it up and reaped the harvest of what his ex-wife had sown."

I slapped my hand on the table and glared at Steven icily.

Steven trembled with fear, but he did not know what he said that angered me.

"Ms. Denz, now that you and Kalus Mike are opponents, what's next?" Steven changed the subject abruptly.

"We'll wait."

"What are we waiting for?"

"When the Ositas can no longer endure the pressure and send Zeke to emerge to fix their products' quality issues, they will definitely try to clear their reputation. When the time comes, we'll strike the final blow." I sneered.

"Will Kalus help them again?"

"No, he won't."

I opened my eyes and looked at the calligraphy art that Kalus complimented. "He wasn't given information and didn't get to see the real colors of the Ositas before, so he was taken advantage of. Now that he knows the truth, he won't be helping the Ositas again. He only loves Lydia, and he never considers others.". He only helped this time because he was afraid that the fate of the Ositas would indirectly affect his business. He's quite capable of weighing the pros and cons.

Kalus kept coming over to look for me and climbed 10 stories for Lydia's benefit. But he would not even pour a glass of water for Amara Kol.

— "Kalus, I feel a pain in my stomach. Will you give me a glass of water?"

–"I have something I need to take care of right away. Get Wilma to help you."

I laughed uncontrollably. My tears-filled eyes turned bloodshot.

"Kalus, you and Lydia are a pair for each other. Both of you are revolting."

It rained when Kalus visited the hotel. It thundered when he was leaving.

Kalus was in the same mood at the time.

The atmosphere for the car had been as depressing as a funeral. Kalus rubbed his temples and could feel pricks on his head.

"Mr. Mike, how is Ms. Denz? Why are you so in a bad mood after meeting her?"

Ian was baffled. "You've never met anyone that you couldn't manage, and you've always managed them in a cool way. But this time…"

Kalus recalled my childhood picture and experienced a strange feeling in his heart.

The girl in the picture did not resemble the Dera Denz they had recently encountered. Of course, it was possible that puberty changed her beyond recognition.

I want you to check very carefully for me the cause of this fight between the Ositas and the Denzs, as well as Zeke and his father's recent activity. Let it be known to me right away!"

Kalus returned to Mike Corporation and had two meetings back-to-back. He had also signed a stack of papers. At last, he leaned back in his chair tiredly and took a deep breath.

He was sure that his smooth sailing life with Lydia would ensue after Amara's departure because his restless heart had finally found its home.
