Kent walked into the office shortly after.

“Sir, I’ve finished all the entry procedures for Ms. Tann at HR. Her monthly intern salary is set at ten thousand dollars.”

“Got it.”

Jensen did not care in the slightest about how much he paid her. As the heiress of the Tann family, she easily got six figures in pocket money every month. Such a sum meant nothing to her; she only disliked being taken advantage of

“Speaking of the joint project with The T Company, are you really set on investing in it? Hardly anyone in the industry sees any promise in this project.”

“I will never turn it down now that Nina has brought it up. Besides, the head of The T Company has always had an outstanding eye for business opportunities. If the stubborn senior directors at the firm refuse to agree, I will fund this investment entirely out of my own personal assets.”

Seeing how everything he did was centered around Nina, Kent could not help speaking up.

“We’ve stayed in Linholt for far longer than planned. You turned out quite differently now.”

Jensen fell silent.

“Ms. Beaumont has been calling nonstop these days, waiting eagerly for you to head back.”

“I know.”

“So what are our

“We leave once I’ve finished guiding Nina properly.”

His tone sounded low and heavy. He put the framed photo back into the desk drawer. Deep down, he had long known there was no possible future between him and Nina. He had only come here originally just to welcome her back to the country and carch a quiet glimpse of her from afar.

Yet human desires were never easy to satisfy. Now he craved every single day.

more than just seeing her occasionally, he wanted to stay by her sicke

Kent sighed softly watching his distracted and troubled look. He was certain the longer they stayed here, the more reluctant Jensen would be to leave this place.

Meanwhile, Chase dragged himself back to the Mercer Villa worn out both physically and mentally

Cecilia hurried forward the moment she saw his exhausted state.

“This is terrible! The Tann family will surely misunderstand us now! What on earth were you thinking this bring huge trouble to our family? Have you gone to explain everything clearly to Nina??

Chase shook his head slowly.

“I’ve tried to explain, but she refuses to listen. What’s more… she has turned me down for good.”

Cecilia grew extremely anxious the instant she heard this.

“The last time I met Nina, she kept urging you to make things work with Katrina and refused to get close to you at all. something was off back then. Could it be that this girl has just been toying with your feelings all along?”

Her words struck straight at Chase’s most vulnerable spot. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes turning cold and gloomy

Has Nina really been playing me all this time? It’s impossible. She loved me so deeply in the past.

Overwhelmed with frustration, he tore off his tie and tossed it heavily onto the floor.

Cecilia was startled by his outburst and quickly tried to calm him down.

“Son, if Nina refuses to accept you, you must not rush into divorce. You have to find a way to get Katrina released first/” Though she had never approved of Katrina as her son’s wife, she knew full well how damaging it would be to the Merter family’s reputation if word spread that Katrina was a kidnapper.

“I have already made up my mind to end this marriage. I will never keep such a deceitful woman by my side”

“Think this through carefully! If you divorce her right now, everyone will question your past affection for each other. You two just showed off your affection in public not long ago. People will surely call you cold-hearted and ruthless. My advice is to bail her out quietly first, and hide her involvement in this case as much as possible. That way we can minimize damage to both the company and your public image.”

Chase knew perfectly well that his mother’s suggestion was indeed the most sensible choice. Still, every lie Katrina had told filed him with nothing but disgust and utter dislike toward her.
