Sunny clams up and agrees that a companyâs president has no need to govern over everything.
âJust relax, you donât have anything to worry about.â
Kevin slows down his pace as he says this then he goes on to put his arms on Sunnyâs shoulders, âMrs. Quinn, are you that nervous about it?â
Sunny just wants to scowl at him for stating the obvious, but she suddenly sees a group of women with heavy make-up standing at the entrance of the company, looking quite nervous.
âWhatâs the matter?â
These women lit up when they lay eyes on Kevin. They greet him with a brilliant smile on their faces, âGood morning, President.â
Sultry voices fill the air and reverberate near Sunnyâs ears.
âYou are really welcomed by the girls.â
Sunny mutters but she is heard by Kevin anyway. He raises the corner of his lips and says in a low voice, âBut I only love you among everyone. Isnât that your pleasure?â
...
âGet lost.â
These women were gossiping in the toilet just now, so when they see Kevin coming in with a woman in his arms, their faces are slightly stiff.
Lettieâs face is the most petrified among them.
âAlright, stop gathering around here, return to your work at once. She is my wife.â
Kevin declares with one of his hands buried in his pocket while the other dangles on Sunnyâs shoulder, âPlease greet her.â
Someone starts greeting her, âGood morning, Mrs. Quinn.â And the others follow in a scatter of voices.
Sunny is astounded by this grand scene in front of her, and she immediately stops one of them who wants to bow to her, âGood morning.â
âYour skin is so smooth, it seems like you are taking care of it well...â
When they find that she is friendly and amiable, all their nervousness and fear vanish as they surround Sunny and start chattering aloud.
Kevin is left behind by them but he is not angry in the slightest. He just stares at Sunny who is busy entertaining the women while smiling.
âPresident...â
Kevin hears someone calling for him so he turns around and meets the new secretary in her eyes.
âWhatâs the matter?â
âPresident, I have something to talk to you about, could you come out with me for a while?â
Kevin frowns slightly, âYou can just tell me here.â
Lettie almost cries when she hears his answer.
âPresident, I am begging you, itâs about my resignation. I hope to discuss this matter with you thoroughly.â
Kevin throws a glance at Sunny who is still surrounded by the women and speculates that she wonât be looking for him anytime soon. He agrees to Lettieâs request.
âThen letâs go.â
But unfortunately, when Kevin and Lettie are turning around to leave, it so happens that Sunny has seen this sight.
âWho is that girl?â
She fails to contain her curiously as she asks about the girlâs identity.
When it comes to Lettie, everybody starts to gossip.
âYou mean her? She has been eyeing the president for some time, thinking that she can one day be his woman.â
âSheâs right, you must be careful of her, lady. This girl is really sly...â
Sunny is slowly getting consumed by anxiety as she listens to their ramblings.
âAlright, you can return to your work now and stop the gossiping. Or else, it may bring trouble to you.â Sunny waves them off while feeling slightly disturbed by their words.
After getting those people off her tail, Sunny subconsciously thinks of following them secretly to find out what they are discussing.
But she suddenly stops in her tracks as she tries to convince herself to trust Kevin more. She ought to trust him fully.
After convincing herself, Sunny drags her legs heavily while returning to Kevinâs office. She doesnât know whether it is mere coincidence, but she is able to see Kevin and Lettie chatting with each other on the balcony from the window next to her.
The next second, Sunnyâs eyes widen in surprise as she sees Lettie hugging Kevin! At this moment, all the sound seems to recede around her, and the only sound remaining is the sound her own heart makes while pounding against her ribs.
But to her relief, Kevin abruptly pushes Lettie away the next second and mouths something under his breath. Sunny can discern that Lettie is now squatting on the floor. Kevin turns around and leaves her without looking back.
Sunny feels the energy seeping out of her body somehow as she collapses weakly on the sofa, unable to utter a word.
After what feels like a long time, Kevin pushes the door to the office inwards and immediately sees Sunny who is now sitting expressionlessly on the sofa.
As he recalls what has just happened, he suddenly feels a surge of frustration.
âSunny, whatâs wrong with you? Are you feeling tired?â Kevin regains his composure as he strides towards her.
Sunny looks like she has just noticed his presence as she answers vaguely, âYouâre back.â
Kevin nods while continuing, âAre you alright?â
Sunny shakes her head as she answers, âIâm alright.â
Kevin has a strange feeling that Sunny has somehow detected something strange but she decides not to say anything. Therefore, he slowly walks to the window looking like he wants to enjoy some scenery, but instead he sees the balcony where he was confronting Lettie just now.
...
Kevin lets out a sigh and finally understands the reason Sunny is acting this way. âDid you see anything just now?â
As he questions her, he sits down beside Sunny. Sunny raises her head in response and gives him a lazy stare.
âSunny, she is my secretary, and she was using the matter about her resignation to ask me out just now. I thought that she was seriously resigning, but it turned out that she wanted to divide us apart. Believe me, I have mercilessly rejected her.â He explains what happened just now after hesitating for only one second.
âYouâre not lying, are you?â Sunny is in a dilemma on whether to trust him or not. Although her inner voice urges her not to think too much, the words of those women in the office just now are echoing inside her head.
âWhy should I lie to you? Since youâve saw me just now, you should know that I really have rejected her.â He replies.
Sunny knows that she shouldnât make a fuss out of such a trivial matter, but for some reason she wants to test Kevinâs limits of his love for her.
âThen you should let her resign immediately. I canât be rest assured if you two are always going to be near each other at work.â
Kevin stares at her deeply and answers without hesitation, âOkay.â Then, he gets up as he is about to leave the office.
âWhere are you going?â
Sunny is slightly nervous as she canât foresee what he is going to do next.
âIâll listen to you and fire her now.â
âAre you seriously doing that?â Sunny suddenly cannot bear the thought of him firing his secretary as she reflects on her behavior. She must have been unreasonable just now.
Kevin immediately consoles her after studying her expression, âIâm not doing this solely because of you. She needed to be fired anyway because she has caused a lot of distress for me recently.â
Sunny understands that he has made up his mind so she advises him, âThen you should try to be gentle with the whole process.â
âMy wife, if Iâm going to do that myself, then what for I have hired so many people to work for me?â he replies.
Sunny agrees with him so she decides not to pursue this matter any further. She fumes, âThen you should go settle this as fast as possible and come back to me. Donât forget that Iâm still angry. Hmph!â
Kevin cracks a smile after shooting a glance at her, âAlright, havenât we agreed that I will be at your disposal today?â When Lettie learns of the news of her retrenchment from the human resources department, she is able to accept this decision calmly. When she had that conversation with Kevin just now when she revealed her thoughts, she knew that she couldnât do anything in her own favor anymore, judging from the fact that Sunny is here in the company too. She then returns to her desk with a blank face and starts to pack her stuff. The others around start to whispering amongst themselves as they watch her packing.
âSome people really thinks too highly of herself. She really thinks that she can seduce men with just her appearance and actions.â Someone comments. When Lettie hears this, she feels her hand slowly forms into a fist.
âOh my, you should stop saying that, today is a beautiful day after all since someone can finally have a good look of herself in the mirror.â Their comments are getting out of hand which is scaring Sunny who is shielded by a screen. She quips, âAre you sure everything is going to be alright?â
Kevin shakes his head in response, âIt canât be helped, since she is the one at fault.â
Sunny recalls the demeanour of these people who are very warm and friendly towards her just now, so she finds it hard to accept that they are very different human beings right now.
âYou should give her some support. She is so pitiful now.â
âI am in no position to do that, since Iâve just rejected her.â
At this moment, a guy passes by them. Before he can greet then, Sunny suddenly focuses her attention on him.
âHogan, youâre Hogan, right?â
Hogan meets Sunnyâs eyes which are emanating a strange light, and he stumbles a few steps backward in fear.
âCome here now, I wonât eat you up. Go out there and help her.â She points at the poor Lettie while she issues this order.
Hogan frantically looks searchingly into Kevinâs eyes and he sees him nodding vaguely. He then complies, âSince the lady has made up her mind, of course I will carry out your orders.â After saying that, he walks to Lettieâs side. Sunny is aghast at people addressing her as the lady as she complains, âCan people stop calling me as the lady? I feel old after hearing that.â She is muttering softly, but Kevin has caught her words.
âYou donât look old at all, you are always the youngest in my eyes.â
...
âYou should shut up now, all of this romantic nonsense happened because of you.â
Kevin can only watch Sunny scolding him and taking the brunt of her wrath, âYou are right, everything was my fault. Iâll kneel on the ironing board tonight as my sincerest apology.â
Sunny burst out into laughter when she hears his last sentence, âGo away, youâre making me seem like a violent woman here.â
Kevin immediately takes this chance to coax her, âMy wife is the most gentle and kindest woman in the world.â
Sunny is in ecstasy after being praised by him.

Have you resolved everything at the moment?â Her words suddenly remind him of his initial intention of coming to the company, that is to handle some business-related matters, âMy wife, give me an hour and you can rest for a while on the sofa.â
Sunny nods while shifting her gaze onto the area sprawled with office desks. Lettie and Hogan are no longer there. âIt seems like they are gone now, so thatâs alright with me.â She then looks back at Kevin, âShouldnât you go now?â
Kevin stares lovingly at the cutie in front of him as he canât help kissing her on her forehead, âSunny, youâre super cute.â
...
Sunny feels that she has been teased, so she covers her face while pushing Kevin away. She darts off into the office area. What is her heart pounding so fast just now? They have been together for a long time, but why is she still embarrassed when Kevin did what he did just now?
