Shirley frowned. He wanted her to accompany him outside? Wasn’t she supposed to stay and serve him in his residence?
Why would she need to accompany him. outside? She couldn’t help but feel nervous. Could it be that she had to
accompany him to meet some political figures? What if she encountered her great-uncle? Wouldn’t that expose
everything?
Could she not go? Shirley wondered in her heart.
However, she could only decide tomorrow morning. As she lay in bed, she couldn’t fall asleep. Her mind was filled with the
sparring session with Zacharias tonight. Every move she made seemed flawless, but this man effortlessly blocked them. It
was evident that his strength and speed far surpassed hers.

exceptionally strong in martial arts. He appeared to be a cultured politician. It was like he was an iceberg- dangerous and
hidden beneath a calm exterior. People saw only the sharp tip above the water’s surface, while there was even more

Just then, Zacharias came out. He was dressed in a classic black and white suit. He exuded a mature and imposing aura.
She coincidentally met his gaze, causing her heart to skip a beat. She was just an intern replacing someone else, after all,
so she felt a bit uneasy. Zacharias’ gaze seemed too sharp, and she decided to avoid direct eye contact with him in the
future..
Shirley was about to open the back door of a car to get in when the captain called her, “Imogen, you and Mr. Flintstone will
ride together.”
