Renee flashed Lina a thumbs-up before they returned to the office. However, as soon as they arrived, they were
greeted with a pile of documents on their desks.
Their supervisor, Mollie Chapman, pushed her glasses up and approached them slowly. She was a strict and rigid
middle-aged woman who only showed that side to her subordinates.
Lina couldn’t help but notice how Mollie’s usual stern expression transformed into a bright smile when the project
manager arrived for a department inspection. It seemed like she was trying to impress him, smiling so hard that a
few extra wrinkles appeared on her face.
“Where were you two?” Mollie glared at them. “Even as interns, you are expected to follow company rules!”
“We…” Lina began to explain, but Mollie slammed her hand on the table before she could finish. “You need to sort
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtout these proposals by today! Don’t even think about leaving until they’re done!”
Just as Mollie finished scolding them, she noticed the general manager making his rounds. With a quick change of
demeanor, she hurriedly approached him with a fawning smile.
Lina and Renee exchanged glances, and the latter whispered softly, “I don’t understand how someone who bullies
her subordinates and kisses up to the bosses can reach such a position.”
Lina smiled and adjusted the kitten decoration on her desk. To Renee’s surprise, she noticed that the kitten’s eyes
were actually tiny cameras.
“Cuz?”
“Shh…” Lina gestured to her, looking around with her doe eyes. She whispered, “I’ve been recording everything
that Ms. Mollie does every day!”
“You’re amazing, cuz!” Renee exclaimed sincerely. “Have you had secret agent training or something?”
Lina pursed her lips and smiled, indicating with her eyes that Meanie Mollie was approaching.
Renee quickly sat down to start working.
In truth, Lina didn’t exactly know why she had set up a camera on her desk. Was she really planning to expose
Mollie’s behavior to the world in the future? She just wanted to have some evidence, a backup plan.
Before she started working, Nicholas had taught her that a backup plan was always important. But he also
reminded her, “It’s okay if you don’t have a backup. Remember, Lina, you have the Thompsons’ support!”
She smiled quietly. No one could bully the daughter of the Thompsons.
…
It was nearly 10:00 p.m. by the time they finished sorting through all the proposals and left the building. They were
exhausted, but their fatigue was soon replaced by surprise when they saw a luxury car and two handsome men
waiting outside.

“Hey, beautiful, do you have a boyfriend?” one of the men called out.
“What? You don’t? That’s a coincidence, my brother and I are single too!” The other chimed in.
“Why don’t we—” Toph tried to strike a cool pose, but Zuko smacked the back of his head before he could finish.
“Ouch!”
“Why are you speaking so much?” Zuko gave him a flat glance before taking Lina’s hand directly.
Toph stuck his tongue out behind Zuko’s back and then turned his attention to Renee, hugging her with a smile.
Little did he expect that Zuko would get into the car first and take a seat in the back with Lina. He tossed the car
keys to Toph. “Drive!”
“I…” Toph’s eyes widened, his nostrils flared, but he reluctantly made his way to the driver’s seat.
Renee smiled and settled into the passenger seat.
Toph helped her with her safety belt carefully. When he got closer to her, he subtly caressed her face.
Soon, the four of them had supper at a quiet shop.
