"Where are you all going? Is it back to the apartment? I wanna go there too!" "What
for? It's the holidays. Why do you want to join us instead of going home?" Timothy,
being the dense guy he was, retorted.
It made Zaylynn so angry that she wanted to cry. "It's none of your business! I wanna
go back there with you guys! I ordered a barbecue. Since the holidays are starting
soon, I want all of us to gather one last time before we split up."
"Sure. You can sit behind Timothy," Susan suggested.
And so the four of them headed back to the apartment.
Upon arriving at the apartment, Susan still prepared a few dishes because she was
worried Ian wouldn't enjoy barbecued food. She thought the food might be too heavy
on the flavor department, so she prepared a couple of dishes that she knew he liked.
Once everything was set up, everyone had a great time eating.
"So now that the holidays are right on our doorstep, what plans do you guys have in
mind?" The liveliest person in the group, Zaylynn, brought up the topic first.
Timothy was eating grilled fish when he heard that. He answered, "I'm going to get a
part-time job, of course. Not everyone is as rich as you, Zaylynn."

"All right, Timothy. Why do you have to act like a child every time? Zaylynn's a girl. You
have to treat her better," Susan advised in order to prevent another fight between
them from occurring.
Only then did Timothy stop.
Zaylynn asked, "Then where are you going to do your part-time job? If you don't mind, you can come and work at
our family's hotel. My dad said he's recruiting people."
"Really?" Timothy's eyes sparkled.
The hotel operated by the Neal family was a famous local hotel. Otherwise, the Neal family wouldn't have been as
influential as it was.
Susan thought the idea sounded good too, so she turned to Zaylynn. "That sounds great. Timothy was going to
work in an internet cafe for the summer. He probably needs to work at night, and the pay isn't that great. If your
hotel has a position for him, that'll be great."
"There is a position that suits him. He's good at computers, and our hotel security department needs someone who
can deal with their computer system. My dad was planning to hire someone at a high price to deal with that."
Zaylynn was quite happy that her seniors agreed to the idea.
If they went to her place, then Ian...
"Sure. It's decided, then. Timothy will go to your family’s hotel while I stick with my original plan."
"Where are you going?" Zaylynn asked.
Ian hadn't said anything so far, but his expression looked relaxed as he cut the steak on his plate.
"I'm going to Yeringham," Susan said before quickly glancing in Ian's direction.
Clank!
His response was straightforward.
He threw the knife in his hand on the table, his cold, handsome face covered in a layer of darkness.
Zaylynn and Timothy were both shocked.
As for Susan, a chill ran down her spine as her fingertips turned cold.
"Why?" Ian questioned.
"Huh?"
She fearfully gazed at Ian as he turned his line of sight toward her. His look was so scary that it was preventing her
from speaking properly. "1-1 have a senior there asking me t-to join a company that focuses on charity. 1-1
told her I would give it a try. I'm sorry, Ian, for not telling you sooner. I'm not going to Hayes Corporation."
"Suit yourself!" That was all he could muster as disappointment filled his heart.
Then he stood up, entered his room, and shut the door tight.
For an entire minute, the dining room was dead silent. The remaining three's faces

What's going on with him? Why is he so angry? So what if she doesn't want to go? Do
interns not have the freedom to choose? Zaylynn and Timothy were puzzled.
After everyone left, Susan brought the plates and cutleries to the sink to wash them.
She was using so much force that she snapped a plate in half.
In an instant, the sharp edges of the plate cut her, causing blood to spill out.
It's fine. I just need to endure this for now. She wiped her tears away and treated her
cut before resuming her dishwashing.
In the afternoon, she left the apartment and headed to Yeringham.
Before she left, she gave Sasha a call and mentioned that she wouldn't be working at
Hayes Corporation. Then she asked the older woman to send someone to
pick Ian up.
Sasha found it odd. "Why does Susan not want to intern at Hayes Corporation
anymore? And why did she decide to go to a place like Yeringham?"
"Probably because of her resentment," Sebastian said when he heard that as he read
his book.
