Aaron picked up at the first ring. “What’s the matter? Why are you calling me back so soon? You missed me?”

“Aaron Rhode, what the heck is wrong with you?! Why did you threaten to fire my boyfriend?” said Annie angrily.

Aaron was walking to the underground parking and laughed when he heard what Annie said. “Nothing’s wrong with

me. Just think of this as a little payback for slapping me and calling me a b*stard. You should know I’m the type of

person who holds a grudge against those who wronged me.”

Annie frowned. “I slapped you because you were playing with my feelings! And even if it was because of that, you

should come at me instead of my boyfriend! He’s innocent in all of this.”

Aaron chuckled. “Well, how I plan to exact my revenge is really up to me now, isn’t it? Anyway, I won’t bother you

lovebirds now. See you later.”

After that, he hung up the phone.

Annie was furious. She regretted ever liking a hypocrite like Aaron!

‘Wait a minute. Did he say see you later? He must be joking, right? Yeah, that must be it. I shouldn’t overthink his

words,’ she thought.

After that, she gave Marcus his phone back. “Don’t worry. Mister Aaron isn’t going to fire you.”

Marcus was still very anxious. “Annie, how could you talk to Mister Aaron like that?” he muttered in a tone that

sounded like he was blaming her.

He thought Annie called Aaron to apologize to him, but she scolded him instead. How could he ever show his face in

the company anymore?

Annie blinked in confusion. “I was just trying to defend you.”

Marcus sighed again. “Even so you can’t talk to my boss like that. You might not work there anymore, but I still do.

What if Mister Aaron fires me because of you? I…”

Looking at him, Annie gradually frowned.

Marcus immediately realized what he was doing wrong. In a softer tone, he said, “Sorry, it wasn’t easy getting this

job, so I started to panic a little…”

Since he apologized, Annie thought she should not have acted so rashly either. “No, it’s my fault. I didn’t consider

your feelings. I acted out of my own emotions and caused you more trouble.”

Marcus could not bear to lose her either. It would be a double blow to him if he were to lose both his job and his

girlfriend at the same time. Thus, he quickly put down his pride to comfort her. “No, Annie. This isn’t your fault. I’m

just worried I won’t have the money to take care of you if I lose this job. After all, it’s a man’s job to provide. I don’t

think I can bear it if I have to break up with you ’cause I’m unemployed.”

Annie shook her head vigorously. “Marcus, you shouldn’t think like that! I’m not going to break up with you even if

you’re unemployed! And don’t worry, you’re not going to be unemployed. I’m going to ask Uncle Jeremy to get you

a job at his company if Mister Aaron really fires you.”

Marcus’ face lit up. “Really? But…I don’t even know whether your uncle accepts me yet.”

Annie patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry. My uncle likes whoever I like. He actually spoils me very much! Don’t let his

aloof attitude fool you. As a matter of fact, he never said no to any of my requests before.”

Marcus visibly felt better after that. “I envy you, Annie. You must be the luckiest girl to have an uncle like that.”

Annie laughed out loud. “Don’t be silly! It’s nothing to be envious of. He’ll be your uncle too when we marry. He’ll

treat you as well as he treats me!”

Marcus wrapped her in a bear hug. “Oh, Annie. I must’ve saved the universe in my previous life to have a girlfriend

like you. I’m grateful that you’re willing to accept a low-level employee who has no money like me.”

Annie did not put up a struggle or hug him back. She merely stood still, tensely.

“Okay, okay. That’s enough. We should head in now. It would be rude to make Uncle Jeremy and Corinne wait for

us.”
