“This matter was decided by Mr. Joseph. Anyway you’re a family member, Mrs. Joseph, so it doesn’t matter.” The HR manager joked.
But Kathy doesn’t want it to be done in this manner…
Wouldn’t that mean that Joseph opened the ‘back door’ for her?
And that was a huge back door!
Kathy was still very perturbed when she went back to her office at the top level and didn’t even notice that John walked over to her.
“Mrs. … Secretary Kathy?”
John wasn’t used to the different ways of addressing Kathy on different occasions…
She was secretary Kathy during working hours and Mrs. Joseph after work.
Mr. Joseph really knew how to enjoy himself!
“Assistant John.” Kathy came to her senses.
“Soon there will be a high-level meeting. You should go in to see what Mr. Joseph needs.”
Kathy nodded and went into the office.
Kathy looked uneasily at Joseph when she thought about what she found out at the HR department.
“How come I became a regular staff here?”
Joseph looked up when he heard, “Not satisfied?”
“No, I’m just here to help out. Isn’t this inappropriate?”
“Really? I didn’t think so.”
Kathy, “…”
She needed to put in more effort otherwise she wouldn’t feel right…
“Joseph, assign me more work to do.”
He looked at her and raised his eyebrows, “You want a raise?”
Kathy immediately waved her hand. Her current salary was even higher than John’s and she shouldn’t expect it to go any higher.
Although it was always great to get paid more.
But Joseph would be showing too much favoritism.
“No need for a raise, just give me an extra chicken leg!” Kathy laughed.
Joseph squinted and signaled for her to go over, “Come.”
Kathy stood a meter from him and he was not satisfied with this.
“What?” Kathy was surprised.
She stood still.
Joseph’s expression darkened, “Come over.”
Kathy stepped forward and Joseph immediately grabbed her into his embrace.
Kathy’s eyes were wide open in surprise.
John was just outside! He could come in at any moment!
He could see her anxiety and Joseph grinned, “Sacred?”
“Joseph, this is the office…” Kathy frowned and kept trying to push him away.
“Don’t move. I just want to hug you.”
Naturally, He won’t do anything else.
Kathy was shy even when the lights were turned off and now this was absolutely out of her comfort zone.
“The meeting is starting soon.” Kathy reminded him.
At this moment, John started to knock on the door.
Kathy’s expression changed and used her strength to push Joseph away but his hands were still on her buttocks.
Kathy’s face blushed red and looked at Joseph.
He was getting increasingly daring…
“What are you waiting for, secretary Kathy?
Joseph was calm and composed as he stood up. He saw Kathy’s blushed face and grinned even more.
Kathy, “…”
…
On weekend.
The car drove slowly towards the Booth family's ancient castle by the hillside.
Kathy was feeling very uneasy for the entire journey. Although Joseph held onto her hand, it continued to sweat.
