Chapter 2468: A Secret Exposed
Shirley tensed up instantly. If she was recognized, it would be a disaster. She believed that the
restaurant staff wouldn’t change frequently, so the probability of being recognized was more than fifty
percent. If the staff greeted her, it would be even worse.
“Mr. Flintstone, I’m not hungry. I’ll wait for you in the car later,” Shirley said quickly. Zacharias looked
over with a smirk.
“Are you not hungry, or do you dare not go up? Huh? Miss Lloyd?”
Shirley’s beautiful eyes widened and her heart almost stopped. This man actually called out her family
name directly.
How did he know her identity? Did he recognize her? Oh, my goodness! Was Imogen’s internship really
going to end?
Shirley’s heart almost leaped out of her chest.
“You… How do you know I’m not Imogen?” Shirley was shocked, and her breath was unsteady. She
thought she had
made all the necessary preparations. She even modified all the data. However, she didn’t expect this
man to see through
her act in just a few days.
Zacharias smiled lightly. “It’s simple. I have a good relationship with Mr. Oswald, and I also know your
father. So, I
naturally know you.”
Shirley was speechless. So, this man knew from the beginning that she wasn’t the real Imogen.
Therefore, her acting.
these past few days was like a joke to him. His observation skills were too powerful.
“Well, now that you know who I am, what do you plan to do next?” Shirley said lightly, but she was
secretly extremely
anxious.
She wasn’t worried about her future, but she held Imogen’s future in her hands. To be precise, it was in
the hands of this
man.
“Don’t worry. Given my relationship with your family, I won’t expose the matter of you replacing Imogen.
However, the
condition is that I need to be satisfied with your performance.”
Shirley wrinkled her brows. “How can I satisfy you?”
“Just obey my orders.” The man summarized simply. She blushed slightly. “If you mean work-related
matters, that’s no
problem, but if you have other requests, I simply can’t obey.”
She also had principles and boundaries. Zacharias couldn’t help but lean in a bit and said with a hint of
ambiguity in his
tone. “Miss Lloyd, do you mean services of a personal nature?”
She cleared her throat while feeling embarrassed and nodded. “Yes.”
“I don’t have any specific requirements in that regard. Of course, if you take the initiative, I won’t
refuse.” He suddenly
dropped his serious demeanor and became more humorous.
Shirley said with a serious expression, “Rest assured, Mr. Flintstone. That will never happen. I already
have someone I
like.”
Zacharias squinted his cold eyes. “You have someone you like? Who?”
She regretted saying that last sentence and could only reply, “This is my private matter and not suitable
for reporting.”
“Miss Lloyd, you’re still young. Instead of thinking about getting married, why don’t you focus on
developing your career?”
Zacharias said mockingly.
Shirley was a bit puzzled. “Mr. Flintstone, you deal with a multitude of affairs every day. Do you have
time to care about
other people’s affairs?”
He remained silent while gazing out of the window. The evening sun cast a golden glow and created a
shadow on half of
his face while the other half remained in the light.
It seemed to be illustrating that both an angel and a devil coexisted in him. Shirley couldn’t help but
carefully observe his
expression and felt like she had inexplicably provoked him again. Indeed, this man was not easy to
serve.
“Mr. Flintstone, please forgive my presumption if I said something wrong.” She still had a request from
him, so she had to
maintain a submissive posture. At the same time, she realized that her future might be held in the
hands of this man. As
long as he brought up this matter in the future, both Imogen and she could face punishment.
At this moment, the car stopped. The bodyguard came over and opened the door. Shirley got out of the
car and thanked
the bodyguard. Zacharias took off his coat, handed it to the bodyguard, and walked toward the
restaurant’s lights in his
three-piece suit.
