"She's gone?" Kevin asked without raising his head while reading the newspaper in his hand.
"Yes, Young Master." Aunt Anne nodded in panic.
"Alert Jacky Ball on this. Call me immediately if there is anything. If something like what happened yesterday happens again, even if I have to tie her up, I will." Kevin put down the newspaper in his hand and got up to go to the kitchen.
"Alright." Aunt Anne nodded repeatedly.
Kevin finished his breakfast alone and then asked the driver, Mr. Watson, to drive him to Innovative Tech.
As soon as Kevin left, Mia came down the stairs with a swagger, holding Aunt Anne and acting coyly, "Aunt Anne, thank you for helping me so much. I really love you so much."
Aunt Anne said with lingering fear, "I was scared to death just now. I thought that young master had known we were lying to him."
"He's not a God. How could he know that I'm upstairs?" Mia said while wearing a cap and sunglasses. "Aunt Anne, I'm leaving. I'll bring you out for a treat after I finish filming."
"Miss, go after breakfast." Before she could finish her words, Mia had already run away.
It was not easy to escape from Kevin's grasp. Mia did not want to stay there any longer.
The only way out of the villa was through the main road. The silver Bentley was stopped in an inconspicuous place. If you didn't pay attention, you couldn't see it at all.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Seeing Mia running out in a hurry, the driver, Mr. Watson, looked at Kevin's face from the rear-view mirror, "Young master, do you want to order for some people to follow the young lady?"
Kevin raised his hand and rubbed his temple. His gentle eyes fell on the beautiful figure who was running farther and further away. "Let Jacky accompany her with someone else. Don't let anything happen to her like last night."
After that, Kevin made another phone call. "Arrange for the best manager for Polaris, and then send two more personal assistants to her. The most important thing is to make sure the script is safe, not even kissing is allowed."
He knew what the little girl was up to at a glance.
However, as she said, she was already an adult. She had things she wants to do. Her brother should let her try and no longer restrain her.
......
Karen could not reach Kevin by phone at all, so she was worried that something bad had happened to him. She didn't sleep well the previous night.
In the morning, she got up early and came to the office with a pair of dark eye circles.
When she arrived at the lobby on the ground floor, she did not go upstairs immediately. Instead, she found a seat to sit down and wanted to confirm with her own eyes that Kevin was alright.
About half an hour later, the employees of the company came in one after another and went upstairs in batches. Karen finally saw Kevin coming in with Nick and Amelia.
Seeing that he was fine, Karen finally felt relieved. She glanced at him and sneaked into the crowd, pretending not to see him.
"Good morning, Director Kevin!" Everyone was busy greeting Kevin.
Kevin glanced at the crowd and immediately saw Karen. Seeing that she was not looking well, he hinted at Amelia.
Amelia immediately understood what her boss meant. She smiled and said, "Karen, Director Kevin wants to talk to you about a project. Come with us."
Suddenly being summoned, Karen was stunned. She knew that Kevin had no project to talk about, but she couldn't say so in front of so many people. She had to go over obediently and she went into the elevator with Kevin.
Inside the elevator made for twelve, there were only 4 people, but Karen felt very uncomfortable because all eyes were on her.
If it were only her and Kevin, she would still try to talk. But Nick and Amelia were also there, so Karen really didn't know what to say.
Amelia was a smart person. She immediately pressed the button for the next floor and said, "Director Kevin, Nick and I are going to discuss some things with Manager Emma of the Public Relations Department, so we won't go upstairs with you."
When the elevator door opened, Amelia and Nick quickly left, leaving the space for the couple.
In the elevator, Kevin stared at Karen and said after a long silence, "Did you sleep well last night?"
Karen kept her head down and said nothing.
Kevin pulled her into his arms and hugged her gently. His eyes under his golden glasses were shining. "You miss me that much?"
Karen pushed him away. "Who misses you?"
Kevin raised his eyebrows slightly and reached out to touch her head. "You really didn't miss me?"
Karen slapped his hand away. "Don't simply touch me. There's a camera here."
Kevin raised his eyebrows. "So what?"
Karen glared at him and pushed the button for the 19th floor. If someone saw her and Kevin in the office together, she would be known as a slut who would steal husbands.
Kevin pulled Karen back and asked, "Why didn't you sleep well?"
"What do you think?" Karen felt hurt while thinking about the reason.
Karen had called Kevin last night, but his number was busy, which made her think that Charlie had played some tricks on him. Karen was so worried that she didn't sleep well all night. He still had the nerve to ask her why she didn't sleep well.
"Are you angry that I didn't accompany you last night?" Looking at Karen, Kevin could only think of this reason.
Ding-dong—
The elevator stopped on the 19th floor and the door opened.
She pursed her lips and looked at Kevin sadly, then turned around and left.
Kevin, who was alone in the elevator, raised his lips slightly. He had never expected that Karen would get so attached to him in such a short time.
After Gook Corp announced that they would no longer cooperate with Innovative Tech, many companies, who had connections with Innovative Tech, decided that there would be no chance for them to cooperate as well, even for ongoing projects.
Companies that had worked together with them in the past, did not plan on doing new projects now. Suddenly, Karen's sales department fell into a black hole.
The old business partners did not want to bring on new projects, and the people-in-charge had even disappeared. It was obvious that these companies did not want to work with Innovative Tech anymore.
The whole sales department was very idle. Karen was so bored that she was reading through projects Innovative Tech had done before, so as to learn from it to gain experience and improve.
"Oh my gosh, what?" Someone suddenly screamed in the office, attracting everyone's attention.
Karen also looked up and saw that the new intern Alice Cole had covered her mouth and shouted repeatedly. It could not be seen from her expression whether she was upset or happy.
May, as a busybody, as she is, hurried over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Alice pointed to the computer screen and said, "I've received a tweet saying that my goddess, Polaris, has a boyfriend! How could she fall in love so soon? I'm in love with her. How did she fall in love with someone else?"
"Polaris? Is she the one who recently starred in that popular teen idol drama?" May looked at several photos on the computer "Hey, this man's back looks so familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere."
