At this moment, Katrina was so bored in the office that she dialed the director’s office number. “Hello?” Atticus
uttered after picking up the phone. “Atticus! Quick question, will Mr. Quarles come to work today?”
“He is in the company today!” “What?! He’s here? Does he need an assistant?”
“Well, he didn’t request one.” “Which office is he at, then?” “The big office facing south.” “Atticus, are there any
documents you need me to send over?’ Katrina quickly asked. “I want to see him.”
“It’s about time he got off work. You won’t see him even if you go up. We’ll try our luck again tomorrow! I’ll find you
a reason to go up.” Atticus was well aware that his sister-in-law was interested in Ethan, and he wanted her to
succeed so he could have a rich and powerful brother-in-law.
Katrina soon hung up the phone. However, there was no way she would give up. Immediately, she grabbed her bag
and went up to the 18th floor. Her heart skipped a beat as soon as the elevator opened, the tall and handsome man
she wanted to see was lazily standing outside as he waited for the elevator.
“Mr. Quarles! Are you… getting off work?” she asked while blushing furiously. “Right.” Ethan nodded and strode into
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe elevator before asking in return, “Are you not getting off the elevator, Miss Sullivan?”
“I-I suddenly remembered that I don’t need to anymore. I’m done for the day.” After she said that, she shamelessly
refused to get off the elevator. She even wanted to go to the underground parking lot when she saw Ethan press
the number for the said floor.
Ethan’s message alert tone rang then, prompting him to lower his head and take at glance at his phone. It was a
message from Josephine. ‘I’ll be waiting in front of the elevator’
‘Gotcha.’ The corners of his mouth lifted into a small smile. Katrina happened to see his smile through the mirror in
the elevator, and her heart started to gallop. Whose message is it that’s got him smiling so dotingly?
At this point, the elevator had stopped on several floors, and many employees had squeezed their way into the
elevator. They couldn’t help their accelerating heartbeats as well when they saw Ethan, but everyone was rushing
to get off work that they didn’t mind cramming into the elevator.
When an idea suddenly came to Katrina, she immediately took the chance while the employees were pushing their
way in to lean into Ethan’s arms. She continued to shuffle closer until she was almost pressing against his torso.
Ethan tensed up, feeling rather resigned. He had never expected he would be squashed into a patty after all the
other days of him enjoying his exclusive private elevator.
Josephine was aware that it was rush hour when everyone was getting off work, so she deliberately hid behind a
pillar to wait for Ethan.
Right then, she saw the number on the elevator floor indicator decrease until it got to the underground parking lot.
Ethan must be in the elevator.
She was immediately greeted by the sight of the elevator crowded with employees when the door opened. As she
began to think that Ethan might not be on this elevator after all, she saw Katrina nearly sticking to Ethan
immediately. after the employees in front left the elevator.
“Ah!” a woman shouted. Katrina had purposely lightly bumped into another employee and stumbled out of the
elevator. She reacted by quickly hugging Ethan’s arm with both her arms and sticking her sensual bosom to his
body.
Josephine, who happened to watch the entire process, thought that Katrina was one hell of an eyesore. She will do

Not only did Katrina stubbornly insist on being in the same elevator, she even deliberately pushed herself against
Ethan’s chest when it was more crowded. And even though no one bumped up against her, she put on a whole
show by herself and put on a pitiful, helpless act. Fortunately, Ethan, being the gentleman he was, reached out and
helped her find her footing before he swiftly detached himself from her. Katrina immediately blushed and purred
flirtatiously, “Thank you, Mr. Quarles.”
As soon as they got out of the elevator, she continued to ask like a schemer, “Mr. Quarles, will you kindly give me a
ride?” She was sure he had driven here. She wanted to sit in his car.
But before Ethan could answer, Josephine smilingly stepped out from behind the pillar. “I’m here, Mr. Quarles.”
When Ethan saw her, he turned to Katrina and stated, “I apologize, but Miss Jacobson and I have a prior
engagement.”
Katrina’s face instantly turned rigid when she heard that. What? Was the loving smile he had on in the elevator
because he received a message from Josephine? Are they going on a date tonight?!
“We’re off then, Katrina.” “Josephine! Would it be convenient for you to give me a ride?” Katrina wasn’t going to let
go of any chances to get closer to Ethan. At that point, she thought that it wouldn’t make much of a difference if
she was riding in Josephine’s car instead of Ethan’s.
