“Mr. Swanson… Last night Lawson and I reached an agreement. He said he would come over today to sign the contract. I’ll give him a call later to remind him.”
Jeremiah’s eyes were slightly cold, with deep pupils that were hard to read.
He said in a low voice, “Will he listen to you?”
“I should…nothing unexpected.”
Last night, Paulette and Cecilia stayed behind. Even though things weren’t great, Lawson should have had a little taste of success. He had no reason not to speak up.
Kaylyn saw Jeremiah staring at her, feeling a bit embarrassed, she
lowered her head and whispered, “Mr. Swanson, as long as it’s something you’ve asked me to do, I’ll definitely get it done…”
Jeremiah squinted slightly, “Oh really?”
“Of course, just tell me what you need.”
The air was quiet for a moment.
The man’s magnetic voice casually said, “Come here.”
Kaylyn’s heart was pounding, and all sorts of images were uncontrollably popping into her mind… The boss looks really fit, so they must be good in that department too, right?

Lost in thought, her feet uncontrollably walked to the inside of the desk.
The man’s casual posture was just within reach, Kaylyn’s breathing quickened, hesitated for a second and then decisively turned to sit on Jeremiah’s lap.
“Oops…sorry Mr. Swanson, accidentally bumped into you.”
She said sorry, but her face showed no sign of embarrassment at all.
Cheeks slightly flushed.
The seductive gleam in the eyes.
Jeremiah didn’t move, no expression on his face, his almond–shaped eyes looking at the woman sitting in his arms, “Accident?”
“Oops, my bad.” Kaylyn boldly reached out and drew circles on the man’s chest, “Since you didn’t push me away, you can’t blame me, right?”
In a flash, Jeremiah’s expression completely changed.
The cold gaze fell straight on Kaylyn.
“Get out!”
The two words without emotion made Kaylyn stiff all over.
Jeremiah didn’t give her any time to react, he raised his hand and grabbed her neck, lifting her up forcefully. He coldly said, “Where did you get the confidence to think I wouldn’t blame you, huh?”
“Ahem…Mr. Swanson…”
Kaylyn’s face quickly turned red, and she couldn’t get out a complete

She grabbed Jeremiah’s hands with both hands, trying to break free.
The obvious physical difference between men and women, where is it that she can easily struggle free with just a few moves? Kaylyn could only let the hand on her neck tighten more and more, struggling to breathe.
Jeremiah didn’t let go until her face turned from white to blue.
Kaylyn suddenly fell to the ground, coughing violently.
Her romantic thoughts just now disappeared without a trace, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and her trembling voice, mixed with fear, said, “Mr. Swanson… I don’t understand, why?”
Jeremiah grabbed a tissue from the table, wiped his hands with a disgusted look, as if he had touched something dirty.
“I don’t understand, just use your brain more.”
“I’m curious, how did a dumbass like you manage to get into the company in the first place?”
“Is it also by this means?”
Jeremiah gave her a look, carefully assessed, and commented, “If Lynda really likes women, her taste is a bit off.”
Kaylyn had never seen a man whose mouth was so venomous.
She broke out in a cold sweat, took a deep breath, and finally looked up with her eyes red from crying, “Mr. Swanson, can you… can you tell me what I did wrong?”

“Hmm.”
Jeremiah threw away the tissue, his dark pupils like a bottomless pit.
He was clearly smiling, but his handsome face gave me the creeps.

As she approached step by step, Kaylyn instinctively backed away, but she had already shrunk into the corner of the desk, with no way to retreat.
“If you really can’t figure it out, then I’ll kindly tell you.”
Jeremiah looked down at the woman in front of him, his deep voice carrying a sharp edge, “Instead of focusing on work all day, you’re busy plotting against your colleagues, stealing their designs. Do you think you’re flawless in what you do?”

Kaylyn opened her mouth, but couldn’t say a word.
How…how could he know?
Did Paulette snitch?!
Besides this, Kaylyn couldn’t think of any other possibilities.
That girl clearly said it was a design from her college days, so no one else should know about it!
Jeremiah saw all the changes in her eyes, the mockery in the depths of his eyes deepened, with no intention of explaining to her, coldly saying, “You’re not just pushing it, you’re going too far.”
His slightly cold fingers pinched Kaylyn’s chin, exerting pressure slowly, “Why did you have to push Paulette out instead of finding a way to cooperate? How dare you?”
