"Dad, let me put my luggage in the car. We'll go to Grandma's house first, and then we can have dinner later!" Shirley was already eager to leave. It wasn't that she didn't like it here, but because she knew getting scolded was inevitable. Her father mus be very angry, and she didn't want to receive a scolding from him before Zacharias, so she hurriedly pulled her father away.

"Don't move your things first," Richard said.

Shirley was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

Turning to look at his daughter, he said sternly, "Starting from now, you will intern here with: Imogen."

Her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief as she listened to her father's words. Meanwhile, Zacharias was also surprised, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch as if he were suppressing his smile. That's great. Now, that girl has no escape. Imogen also looked at Richard in surprise. She then looked at Shirley, not expecting they would be interning together.

Yet, Shirley was unwilling to intern here anymore, so she disregarded Zacharias" presence and held her father's arm. "Dad, let's talk outside."

"There's no need to talk any further. Your internship documents have been sent over, so you must finish your three-month internship here," Richard said firmly, thinking this internship could give his daughter a chance to grow up.

Shirley instantly understood her father was being serious and was really going to put her through this internship. Also, she could sense that this was her father's punishment for her.

"Shirley, that's great. We can intern together," Imogen cheered.

Upon hearing Imogen's words, Shirley thought she now had another friend during her internship and smiled at Imogen while nodding. "Yes, let's intern together."

"Dad, can I ask for my own position? I want to intern in the office," Shirley said to her father, thinking about whether her father would be willing to arrange an internal transfer for her as she didn't want to continue being Zacharias' bodyguard.

However, Richard rejected her. "You can discuss this matter with Mr. Flintstone. It's not appropriate for me to interfere with this

matter.

Once that was said, he glanced at his watch and said to Zacharias, "Mr. Flintstone, I have something to attend to. I'll leave first." Then, he turned back to his daughter. "Good luck with your internship."

"Take care, Mr. Lloyd." Zacharias got up, wanting to send Richard off.

At that moment, Shirley spoke up first. "Mr. Flintstone, let me see my dad out."

Afterward, she quickly followed behind her father. Once they were out of the house, she held onto her father. "Dad, how could you arrange for me to intern here without asking me? Even if you want me to do an internship, can't you arrange for me to intern at my great- uncle's office?" Shirley asked in frustration.

"How could you still make demands? Don't you know how serious this is? You would have been sent to the military court if this had gotten any more serious. By then, even I can't protect you," Richard lectured sternly.

Shirley bowed her head, obediently receiving the scolding.

"What should I say about you? I've been too indulgent with you, which has led to your unruly character. You should stay with Mr. Flintstone so that he can tone down your character," Richard said.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I was wrong." Shirley admitted her mistake.

Richard sighed. In fact, his daughter's behavior had fully demonstrated her capability. He wouldn't have discovered that his daughter was here if his uncle hadn't notified him.

"You are indeed quite capable, but you've used your capabilities in the wrong place. I am proud of you and always will be." Richard patted his daughter's shoulder. His daughter had grown up and could shoulder her own responsibilities.

In the meantime, Shirley also choked up. She had always been like a child when she was around her father. She nodded. "Okay, I promise you that I will do my best while interning here."

Though Richard was unwilling to let his daughter suffer difficulties, he must let her grow up and replace her own value and goal in life. Only that way could her life be more meaningful. "Call me if you need anything." Then, he left after saying that.
