Chapter 634: She sat up straighter and said to Ethan, "There's no need for an ambulance anymore. I feel much better. All you have to do is let Minna work in the secretarial department, and I'll be perfectly fine." At that moment, everything clicked for Ethan. Elsa had been faking it the whole time. It had all been an act to force his hand.

"Mom, con," Ethan said with a dark expression. "This is my company, not our home. This place runs on rules. The secretarial department is high-pressure and complicated. Minna can't handle it.” There was nothing harsh in his tone, but the frustration was unmistakable. He couldn't believe his mother would go so far as to pretend she was ill to force him to change his mind.

"Oh, my head... It hurts..." Elsa cried again. She let her head drop back against the cushions, eyes squeezed shut, her brows furrowed in feigned pain.

As long as Ethan kept refusing her, she had no plans to stop.

"Fine. I'll agree to what you want," Ethan said, his voice filled with frustration. Despite everything, a part of him still worried that his mother might actually be unwell.

Minna's eyes lit up the instant she heard that. "Really?" This was all she needed. If she could stay in the secretarial department, she would work close to him. With enough time, charm, and effort, she was certain she could make him fall for her.

Ethan nodded reluctantly and did not even bother to spare her another glance. Even if she got the position, it didn't mean she could see him at will. Only Neville and Rex had the right to access his office. The rest of the staff handled general tasks and had no direct contact with him. She really thought she could get closer to him just by being his secretary? That was absurd.

Minna had already pieced it together: Elsa had been faking all along. What Elsa had done moved her. She had gone to such lengths for her sake. How could she not repay her for it? How could she not try even harder to win Ethan over? Buoyed by her triumph, Minna lifted her chin with pride. Her eyes landed on Brenna. “I'm staying here to work, Miss Harper. Try not to get too jealous. I'll be seeing Mr. Mitchell every day, probably more often than you do." Latest chapters in Gl.☐☐☐ "Then I wish you the best of luck." Brenna turned away and returned to her seat, her movement graceful. She remained composed and not the slightest bit ruffled.

Seeing Brenna so composed, Minna felt defeated.

She shifted her gaze to Ethan, and her heart pounded wildly in her chest. He really was something. He was the kind of man who left her breathless just by existing. She felt herself falling even harder for him now.

Ethan felt resigned. He cast a glance at Brenna, silently hoping she wasn't upset. When she met his gaze and even offered a faint smile, he finally felt relieved.

m "Mom, already agreed. Are you feeling better now?" he said to Elsa.

At last, Elsa dropped the act. She sat up straighter, looking "Yeah. That's perfectly fine.

She tugged Ethan to sit down beside.
