âIf I hadnât interrupted your Little meeting just now, who knows what wouldâve happened? Debra Clarkson, why are you so reckless?â
To this, I had no answer.
I knew that Caleb was only doing this for my own good, and he wasnât wrong; it really was dangerous for me to continue working for Adam
But I had no choice.
It was my duty.
From the moment I stepped foot into Roz Town, I was destined to face all these adversities.
Neither of us said a thing for a long time.
After a while, It seemed that Caleb couldnât stand it anymore and asked angrily, âDebra, who on earth do you work for? Why canât you just give it up? What about me? Am I so unimportant to you?â
I locked eyes with him and shot back, âWhy donât you give it up for me?
Am I so unimportant to you? Caleb, donât expect me to do things you canât do.

Just before Carlos shut the door behind him, I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure outside the car.
I almost thought my eyes were deceiving me.
No, it really was Riley outside, but she wasnât dressed simply anymore.
She had returned to her old dignified style, though I hadnât seen her dress like this since she demanded a divorce from Adam.
How could this be?
Wide-eyed, I watched Riley make her way to the office building toting a
Lunch box.
It seemed that she was going to give Adam some kind of dessert.
I was so confused.
