Chapter 8

The next day, I called an all-staff meeting. Seraphina showed up.

She looked at me with delighted surprise.

"Honey, you're so clever. Last time you helped me swindle that silly girl out of a piece of land, and now you're the CEO. Are you planning to poach all her company's clients for us?"

"That way, our profits would skyrocket this year, wouldn't they?"

I looked at Seraphina as if she were an idiot.

"Ms. Shaw, if you have no business here, please leave. I'm very busy."

Seraphina plopped herself down on my chair.

"Babe, I know you're mad at me for having Langdon's baby. True love is selfish, I understand why you're throwing a tantrum."

"Alright, I promise you, once I have this baby, I'll immediately work on getting my body back in shape and have one for you. I know you love and care about me. Don't worry, I won't let you down. I'll cover all the child's living expenses, overseas education, everything. You just focus on making money for the company."
