Chapter 146 I don't know why I felt like crying, just a bittersweet, swollen feeling, like a sponge soaked in water...

Maybe it was because, in this house without my parents, someone cared foragain when no one else did. Or maybe it was because Ernest actually got me, knew that even though I left the amusement park, my heart was still tied there.

I kept reading the note over and over. When I stepped out of the bathroom, I really saw it on the small dining table in the diner, a thermal flask and a fried egg on a plate.

At that moment, I pressed the note to my chest, and tears started to roll down.

Ernest made breakfast for me, and I didn't take his kindness for granted. After eating, I sent him a message: Thank you.

Those two words were simple, but I couldn't just take his efforts for granted.

After sending the message, I played around with the little trinkets I picked up from the night market yesterday. My phone rang before I could get them sorted.

My heart skipped a beat in that instant, as if I was hoping for something.

But when I saw the caller ID, my heart dropped, and I let out a sigh before answering, "Ivan." "Ahem," Ivan cleared his throat, "Ms. Hudson, found a new job?" His question was so sudden, I hummed in response, "What's up?" Ivan cleared his throat again without answering, "Started yet?" I knew there was something more, "Ivan, if you have something to say, just say it. Don't beat around the bush." Ivan was silent for a moment, probably wrestling with his thoughts, wondering whether to tellthe truth.

I wasn't in a hurry, not pushing him, I just patiently switched the phone to speaker and continued fiddling with my little gadgets. "Mr. Wagner knows about your new job," Ivan finally said, after wrestling with himself for a bit. I wasn't surprised, but I knew Ivan's it call wasn't just to informabout that. I stopped what I was doing, "What, he's trying to sabotage i again?" "Ms. Hudson, you really know Mr. Wagner well," Ivan said, makingfrown.

It seemed Conrad didn't wantto have a smooth start at my new job, but I hadn't received any calls from the new company.

Though I hadn't started work yet, I had signed the contract, and they would have to notifyif they decided to terminate it.

I wasn't annoyed, just asked Ivan lightly, "Did he threaten them, saying if they hired me, he'd make them vanish from Seabreeze City?" "Heh," Ivan laughed at my guess.

It seemed I was right. Conrad was the CEO of the Wagner Group, with a typical CEQ's arrogance, thinking he's the suprbeing, untouchable by anyone, and ready to make anyone who crosses him vanish from the face of the Earth.

"Then let him prepare to take on all the companies in Seabreeze City," I mocked.

Ivan sighed, "Ms. Hudson, actually Mr. Wagner still cares about you."

I chuckled, and then Ivan added, "You didn't show up for the proposal m yesterday, he was quite

embarrassed. Though he threw a fit at the time, on the way back he m mentioned to me, if you cback, he would let Haley go."

I stared at the phone screen, "Belated affection is less valuable than dirt, it's too late "Ms. Hudson..." Ivan tried to say something else, but I didn't give him the chance.

"Ivan, I have a boyfriend now." Ivan was silent for a few seconds, "What? That was quick?" Ads by Pubfuture
