Kaleb looked up at him and calmly said, “I don’t need a secretary, and I don’t have the ability to teach her. Wouldn’t it be better to arrange her to work as a secretary for her father?”
Felipe explained, “Annalise’s father is famously doting on his daughter. She worked as his secretary, doing all the tea pouring and running around for him. She couldn’t learn anything and instead just added to her father’s troubles.”
“Then find someone else.”
“I have already made up my mind about this matter, and you cannot refuse. She will go to the company to report tomorrow.”
Kaleb’s cold eyes were icy, tinged with sarcasm. “You don’t want to work, yet you keep interfering with the company’s affairs. What do you want to do?”
Felipe was furious and threatened, “Even though I retired, I’m still the largest shareholder of the company. The other shareholders on the board all look up to me. Do you really think I wouldn’t dare to kick you out?” Kaleb stood up and said, “As long as it’s not about Katrina, do whatever you want.” He put down his words and walked out of the study.
I came out of the study and went to my grandmother’s room to say hello. After exchanging pleasantries, I came out and stood by Kaleb’s car, waiting for him. In the middle of May in the south, the weather was extremely pleasant, with warm sunshine and a gentle breeze, making people feel lazy and relaxed. I felt down and remembered the words Kaleb had said to me, unable to understand his mindset at that moment. Not in love, not affectionate, and not getting divorced? The reason why I was able to hold on until now and didn’t want to get divorced is because I loved him, couldn’t let go of him, and still had expectations for this marriage. But why was Kaleb like this? With a honk, the vehicle unlocked, and my thoughts were pulled back; I looked at Kaleb walking out of the villa. “Get in the car,” Kaleb said, his face darkened as he walked towards the driver’s seat.
I stood by the car for a moment, hesitated, then opened the backseat door and got in. I fastened my seatbelt. Kaleb froze in the act of fastening his seatbelt and looked up at the rearview mirror; a hint of sadness flickered in his
eyes.
