Ashlynn tied the necktie on and said, “I can be your assistant, but no one in the office can know whoI am and you can't give me any privilege.”

Corentin lifted her chin. “Any other woman would kill for me to make them an exception and youthe only one who doesn’t want me to. I like it though.” He pinched her on the thigh.

She hid her legs under the blanket and muttered, “I'm not going today. I'm tired. I want to rest.”“If you can go to work today, I would begin to doubt my * capability’, he said evilly, before gettingup to leave.

After resting for a day, Ashlynn went to the office for an interview. There were multiple rounds ofinterviews and they were all challenging as she could only rely on her own ability.

She first headed to the human resources department, before going to the secretarial department.The person who interviewed her was Corentin’s secretary, Evan Payne, who was going to be herdirect supervisor.

“The human resource department sent over three resumes including yours and we've decided tooffer you this job. You've been an assistant before in Luton, so I hope you won't disappoint me,”Evan said while flipping through her resume.

“I will work hard,” Ashlynn said.

He set the resume down and studied Ashlynn. “The Lloyd Group is an empire and plenty of peoplecould only dream of working here, so consider yourself lucky. Your probation lasts for one monthand you will need to satisfy Mr. Lloyd, so remember to always be careful and sharp by his side.”

“I understand.” She felt no pressure in pleasing Corentin.

"One last thing. Do not do anything in front of Mr. Lloyd that is not related to work.”

Ashlynn instantly understood his hidden message, “Do not dream of seducing Corentin’.

She could understand why Evan would remind her of this, as she assumed that someone must havetried in the past and ended up facing horrible consequences.

“Mr. Payne, may I ask you something?”

"Sure."

“Have you been Core — Mr. Lloyd's secretary for years?”

“It's been eight years.”

"How is he in person?”

Evan felt that she was asking too many questions and wondered if she was concerned that Corentinwas hard to please. “Don’t worry. So long as you perform your duties as you are told, Mr. Lloyd israther forgiving. This document contains all his habits and things to look out for. Memorize theseand you are good to go.”

She accepted the file and realized there was a list of pages. She glanced through it, realizing thatwhile the habits Corentin favored matched his character, the things he disliked were a completeopposite of what she knew about Salvatore.

For example, it was stated that Corentin did not smoke, but she had never seen Salvatore without acigarette between his lips.

Indeed, ever since she had met Salvatore after he became Corentin, she had never seen himsmoking, nor had she smelled smoke on him even when they kissed.

"You can go through those later. Let me take you to Mr. Lloyd's office to familiarize yourself with theenvironment.” Evan stood up.

Once she stepped into the office, she was bewildered to replace that Corentin’s office was extremelyspacious and that every detail of the interior gave a proud and authoritative impression.

“I guess that's what is expected of someone with his status!’ She thought.

"We usually work here unless there's an official meeting. This is the shelf for documents and here'sthe wine freezer. You will have to memorize what's where,” Evan explained while Ashlynn listened.She was filled with doubt of whether Salvatore was capable of running such a gigantic enterprisewhen he used to be a common thug who had never had the need to manage anything at all.

She had done her research and Corentin was supposed to be an excellent student who knewmultiple languages, whereas Salvatore had merely graduated from third year of secondary school.Just then, the door was pushed open and Corentin walked in.

“Mr. Lloyd.” Evan walked over. “This is the new assistant we hired. Her name is Ashlynn Thompson.She will be responsible for what the previous assistant did.”

Corentin glanced at Ashlynn, before looking away and walking to his desk.

“Mr. Lloyd, if this is all, we will leave now.”

“Go ahead.”

Evan and Ashlynn were about to step out of the office when they heard noises and turned aroundto fill a pile of documents on the desk falling onto the ground.

Corentin remained standing and focused on the document in his hand as though he had notnoticed it.

Evan shot Ashlynn a look and she approached the desk wordlessly to gather the documents, whileEvan walked out of the office.

She picked up all the documents and set them down, when Corentin said, “They weren't placedthere.”

She glanced at the spot where she set the documents down and said confidently, “Mr. Lloyd, I'vebeen paying attention to the spots where documents, laptops and pens are placed here since Icame in. I don't think it's wrong.”

He reached one hand out to grab her by the chin to lift it until their eyes met. “Are you second—guessing my command?”

Ashlynn knew that he was teasing her and said, “You dropped out from secondary school, so what'swrong about second-guessing you? Can you even speak French?”

“I can.”

“Say something, then.”

He leaned closer to her ears and whispered, “Va te faire foutre.”

She pursed her lips with a dark expression.
