She felt a deep pang of regret.

“Mr.

Cooper, I’m so sorry.

I didn’t realize she was your friend.

I’ll replace her right away,” the secretary said, panic evident in her voice.

Securing a position at Homelight Enterprise had been no small feat, and now it was in jeopardy.

But as she rushed downstairs, she was completely at a loss-where had Madisyn gone?

Fortunately, she soon spotted Madisyn at a nearby cafe, her elegance making her hard to miss.

“Miss!” The secretary approached her, her demeanor now humble and apologetic.

“I’m terribly sorry for the misunderstanding.

Could you please come back with me?”

Madisyn tapped her fingers on the table, her expression calm but pointed.

“That’s not what you said earlier.

“I didn’t know you were Mr.

Cooper’s esteemed guest.

I’m truly sorry,” the secretary said, her voice trembling with regret.

Madisyn’s gaze hardened.

“Does not knowing give you the right to treat people so poorly?” she replied coldly.

“I’m so sorry.

I messed up.

Please, scold me,” the secretary said.

Madisyn, unaffected by her near-tearful apology, responded coolly.

“If I had been a client today, how much damage would your actions have caused the company? This role clearly isn’t a good fit for you.

I’ll ask Jared to reassign you to another position.

The secretary turned pale at her words but found some comfort in the fact that she wasn’t being fired.

It was a small mercy, especially considering how easily she had trusted Tatiana’s assistant.

Meanwhile, on the top floor, Tatiana and her assistant were equally uneasy.

They hadn’t expected that the person Jared was so eager to see would actually be Madisyn.

A while later, Jared and Madisyn stepped out of the elevator.

Jared’s warm smile, directed entirely at Madisyn, made Tatiana’s eyes widen in.

shock.

This was the CEO of Homelight Enterprise- someone others bent over backward to impress.

Yet, here he was, clearly going out of his way to please Madisyn.

Was Madisyn truly so captivating that she could steal everyone’s attention?

Watching Jared and Madisyn engaged in conversation as they walked past her, Tatiana quickly stood up and reminded Jared, “Mr.

Cooper, I’m Tatiana.

We have a meeting scheduled for 6:30.

Jared gave her a brief glance and responded, “I’m dealing with something important at the moment.

You can go now.

Tatiana’s expression darkened immediately.

They had been waiting for what felt like forever, only to be brushed off because of Madisyn’s arrival?

In that instant, Tatiana couldn’t suppress the wave of resentment that surged up against Madisyn.

Picking up on her mood, Jared added with a cold edge in his voice, “I said you can leave now.
