Chapter 7

Outside the company entrance, I spotted Jane.

She had lost a lot of weight since the day she kicked me out of the house. Her complexion was sallow, and her once lustrous hair now looked dry and brittle.

As soon as she saw me from a distance, she came running toward me at full speed.

She stood about six feet away from me, her eyes filled with desperate longing: "Honey, please tell the receptionist to open the security door for me. I've been standing out here for ages, and my feet are killing me."

Watching her put on this exaggerated display of coquettishness made me physically nauseous.

"Babe, hurry up and tell them who I am. When I tried to go up to see you earlier, they actually had the nerve to stop me."

Jane was ranting and raving about the two young receptionists, even demanding that I fire them.

I let out a cold laugh: "Ma'am, I think you might have the wrong person. We have no relationship, and you have no right to boss around my employees."
