Facing the impulsive Marlene, Rhode could only sigh in helplessness.

Rhode didn't have the intention to sign a contract with Marlene from the very beginning. Although this missy had lots of positive results, contributions, and could even be considered a vice leader from a certain perspective, Rhode was very clear that it was impossible to keep Marlene.

The reason was simple. She's Marlene Senia.

To nobles, their surname was more important than the first name.

Frankly, this situation felt like a daughter of a rich family working in a fast food restaurant. If she worked for only a short few months, the boss wouldn't have any objections and may even help her gain more experience. But if she decided to work for many years — none of the bosses would be able to accept it.
