Chapter 41 “Consider yourself lucky today. Otherwise, Mr. Oxley would skin you alive for sure!” Sadie glared at him ferociously. Easton knew Sadie well enough to know that he could only keep a smile and not talk back to her at this point.
Noticing Easton‘s lack of temper, Sadie furrowed her eyebrows and asked, “Who went with you to Capital Building Material Corp. today?”
Easton appeared to be in a daze for a moment before he feigned his calmness and pointed at Kayson. “I brought this lad with me.”
Sadie was stunned. ‘Kayson? It really is him, huh?‘
“How did you get Kenneth to sign the contract?” Sadie‘s eyes were filled with puzzlement. Easton said without any sign of anxiety, “I entered the office and beat up Mr. Young until he yielded.” Sadie‘s expression turned stern.“So, you take pride in yourself for doing that, huh?” “No, I don‘t…”
Sadie darted a ferocious look at him. “I‘m deducting $450 from your pay! You too, Kayson! You‘re so dumb that you don‘t even report your team leader‘s misconduct! “You‘re getting a $750 pay cut too! I‘m going to double the amount if you repeat that next time!”
Sadie left The Tetrad‘s office upon saying that.
Easton muttered in dejection, “Why do I still get a pay cut when I accomplished my task?” Kayson heaved a sigh softly. ‘Yikes, my $750 is gone.‘ Meanwhile, his phone rang.
Kayson picked up his phone and took a glance to find that the call came from Zachary.“Mr. Ewell.” Kayson picked up the call.“Kayson, are you free tonight?” Zachary spoke in a rather solemn tone.Kayson figured that Zachary needed his help for something, so he said, “Yes, I‘m free.”“That‘s great. An influential figure sought my help to treat his wife, and I can‘t figure out her health condition.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
So, I‘m hoping to seek your consultation.” “Sure, I‘ll be there after work.”Zachary chuckled. “I‘ve already sent Lindsy to pick you up. If you were to tell me that you couldn‘t make it, I‘d still order Lindsy to abduct you!” Kayson could not help laughing. “Trying to abduct me, Zachary? That‘s highly imaginative of you.‘“Sure, I‘ll be there with Lindsy then.”The phone conversation ended soon afterward. The busybody Easton asked after he heard a woman‘s name, “Is that your girlfriend, Mr. Kace?”
Kayson was rendered speechless. He corrected Easton‘s remark by saying, “Nonsense. We’re just friends.”Easton smiled maniacally and assumed a flirtatious expression.Kayson could not be bothered to pay attention to Easton.Kayson got off work at 6:00 p.m. and saw a text message from Lindsy, claiming that she was waiting for him on the right side of the company building.Kayson got downstairs and found Lindsy‘s beige VW Beetle.Lindsy got out of the car and waved at him.
“You must have waited for a long time,” said Kayson smilingly.Lindsy smiled sweetly and said, “Nah. I sent you the text message when I arrived.” “Great then. Let‘s get into the car and tell me about the situation.”“Sure!”They got into the car and drove away.On the other hand, Sadie watched the departing beige VW Beetle in astonishment behind them.Sadie was dumbfounded. Was that Kayson?‘She was still in shock when her BMW Z4 was parked in front of her. Her secretary passed her the car keys.Sadie chuckled at herself in the car.How can that possibly be Kayson? ‘What‘s wrong with me? I must be confused!
