Chapter 572 - Of course, we have an improper relationship.
In the end, even though she was unwilling, under a certain despicable CEO’s threat, she could only get in the car and travel with him to the office.
Through the car’s window, she looked at the familiar passing scenery, and her grumpiness over being threatened by the man faded a little.
“Just drop me off at the junction before the company later.”
With her mood slightly better, she broke the silence in the car.
Staring straight ahead, the mood of the man, who was driving the car with a neutral face, seemed to have worsened a little, instead.
“… Why?” he coldly asked after a while.
“Do you even need to ask?! Of course, it’s to avoid drawing any unwanted attention to us,” she replied unthinkingly.

“I am your superior.” His gaze and voice were cold. “So, you must listen to what I say.”
“… But this isn’t just anything.” She frowned, a little hesitant.
All she wanted was to go to work and hold her own there. She really did not want her workplace to become a battlefield.
“You don’t have the right to refuse,” he said.
“Then… I think I’ll just resign.” She would be unable to handle such a work life. Sigh…
“No way!”
