"I know that and I wouldn’t have it any other way," Henry said, he then frowned, he felt that statent was off especially with Mai saying it out of the blue. "But why do you need to repeat yourself? Do you think I will betray your boss? You know that we’re in a relationship and she’s currently pregnant with my baby, right?"
"I don’t know, Sir. My gut feeling tells that sothing about you slls fishy," Mai replied. "I genuinely hope that my gut feeling is wrong, but in case you actually betray Mrs. Woods, then you should know that I will be your first enemy."
Henry was stunned by the fire in Mai’s eyes. She was a petite lady, but the fire in her eyes told him she would do anything to protect Kate.
It made him wonder if there was a story behind Mai’s devotion to Kate.
"Why are you so eager to defend her anyway? Did she ever do anything for you?"
Mai went silent montarily and then replied, "Mrs. Woods might not realize this, but she hired during my lowest point, Sir."
Mai tried to recall her experience of getting hired by this company, "I actually failed the interview with the HR departnt, but Mrs. Woods insisted on taking in because she said that I have a lot of talent and that I should work under her."
"She’s like a ntor. She taught many things on how to be an editor. I learned a lot from her," Mai said. "Naturally, I also admire her dedication and perseverance because she was under a lot of pressure when Mr. Jas Grant tragically passed away."
"If you’re so desperate about getting this job, then you’re not the one to talk about resigning and standing up," Henry said. "You just need to suck up and do your job, no need to be so fired up about defending Kate."
"I know that finding another job is difficult, Sir," Mai took a deep breath. She recalled her childhood and the trauma that haunted her every night. "But I’d rather leave my job than betray a woman who’s like a big sister to ."
Henry couldn’t believe that Kate got trendous support from Mai. She always told him nobody truly liked her and she was nobody’s favorite.
But it seed that Kate was wrong this ti.
Because two people treasured her so much already: Mai and Henry.
’Of course, I love her more. I will do everything just to ensure that Kate is safe,’ Henry declared. He didn’t know why, but he felt a little jealous thinking about Mai’s dedication to Kate.
"Now, please excuse , Sir. I have to go to Mr. Eckermann’s office. Mrs. Woods told not to be hostile to him."
"Oh, yeah, treat Michael well, and he will treat you even better," Henry said. He wanted to say that Michael was interested in her, but that would probably disgust Mai even more and possibly drive her away, ruining any chance Michael might ever have.
Thus he allowed Mai to leave his office, and he sipped his morning coffee.
"I think we will remove that bitch in two to three weeks. Maybe I should also prepare a trip for Kate and I, so we can enjoy our ti together while that bitch is freezing in her ice coffin," Henry smiled as he imagined the image of them bundled together in a warm winter cabin, away from other people, especially from Erin.

Mai took a deep breath as she prepared herself to face the bimbo and Michael.
’Okay, Mai, ti to work. This is for Mrs. Woods, so she won’t be tornted by that stupid sister of hers,’ Mai convinced herself.
She knocked on the door twice before she opened it, and the first thing she saw was Erin, who was already sitting on Michael’s desk, trying to seduce him by lifting her mini-skirt a little to give him a teasing view of her pussy.
Mai could clearly see the disgust in Michael’s eyes as he tried to look away. But he still tried to act like he was into it.
’It’s so obvious that he’s not into her. Is it just because I was so angry at Mr. Grant and Mr. Eckermann yesterday, that’s why I don’t notice his disgust at all?’ Mai felt a little guilty, thinking that she had been harsh on Michael.
"Why don’t you touch , Mr. Eckermann? I know that you want it, right?" Erin said with her sweet voice. She hadn’t had sex with anyone for a while because she wanted to keep herself as clean as possible for Michael or Henry.
’Ah, at this point, I think it’s better if we just do threeso. It’s faster and more satisfying,’ Erin thought.
"Please return to your desk, Miss Ross. We have a lot of work to do today," Michael said.
"Awww, you don’t need to worry about these papers. You can just give it all to that chink, let her do everything and we can have our fun," Erin said.
"I can’t do that, Miss Ross," Mai interrupted.
Michael and Mai turned their heads to the door at the sa ti. They saw Mai strutting confidently with a stack of docunts in her hand.
She put the docunt on the table for Michael to read and said, "I also have my own job to assist Mrs. Woods and Mr. Grant."
Erin scoffed, "Then go and help them, why are you here? Don’t you see that we shouldn’t be disturbed?"
Mai ignored Erin and continued to speak with her eyes on Michael, "However, the CEO and Chief Editor told to help you instead, Mr. Eckermann. So if you need my help for anything, I can stay in your office."
Mai glanced at Erin for a split second, silently telling Michael she could help him as long as he wanted her around.
"So what do you think, Mr. Eckermann?" Mai asked.
Erin rolled her eyes, "Oh co on, of course he doesn’t want you here! I’m the only one he needs in his office!" Erin slowly ran her finger on his shoulder and whispered, "Isn’t that right, Sir?"
Michael ignored Erin completely. His eyes were on Mai as he kept staring at her without blinking, "I need you to stay by side, Mai."
