“Alice!” Michael forcefully grabbed her chin, making her lift her head. “I told you, she’s different p>
At that moment, Alice had a lot she wanted to say.
She wanted to ask him if he had really fallen in love, if he planned to break up with her, if he wanted to marry Aurora.
But facing his cold eyes, she couldn’t say a word.
He didn’t like being contradicted. As a tool for his pleasure, she only needed to obey, not to argue. “Okay, Mr. Johnson, I will teach Aurora
well p>
Whether it was work or life, she would teach her.
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Michael finally let go of her chin. “The performance of for this international partnership will be credited
to Aurora.
“Why?” Alice blurted out.
He knew that what she needed most was money.
She had worked hard for the past ten years, not daring to slack off for a moment. She needed money to keep her mother alive.
The commission for this project was substantial. Even though she was no longer a senior secretary, she could still get a generous bonus.
But Michael ruthlessly deprived her of the bonus that should have belonged to her!
Michael put on his robe and looked at her sarcastically. “Because the company is mine, I can give it to whoever I want. Any objections p>
“Alice, know your place, do your duty, and don’t outshine her in front of her. I don’t want her to feel useless, got it p>
He didn’t wait for her to respond and left the bathroom directly.
Cold water kept washing over Alice’s body, but she couldn’t feel it.
The ambiguous desire had faded, leaving only emptiness.
She had known everything for a long time, so she didn’t care about feeling sad.
She wouldn’t give up the bonus that belonged to her.
When she left the bathroom, Michael was still hunched over his computer, reviewing documents.

She quietly picked up her nightgown.
Michael didn’t like being disturbed while working. Since he occupied her room, she would go to the guest room.
Just before leaving, Alice reminded him that they had to go to the Johnson family estate for dinner the next day.
Michael let out an impatient click of his tongue. “Do you often contact my family p>
“No, it’s always Mrs. Serafina Johnson or Mrs. Rosalind Johnson who calls me. I’ve never contacted them on my own accord p>
Serafina was not Michael’s biological mother. There were some secrets in the Johnson family that even she didn’t know, but Alice knew
Michael didn’t like others mentioning his family matters.
“Okay, go out p>
Hearing him say that, Alice went to the guest room to sleep.
Just as she fell asleep, she heard Michael’s voice on the phone.
“Okay, don’t be afraid, I’m coming right away p>
“Stay at home, I’ll have the property management go over p>
He was frantically putting on clothes. As soon as Alice opened the door, she saw his warning look telling her to shut up.
Alice sensibly stepped forward to help him with his shoes and coat.
Michael didn’t explain to her and went out the door directly.
Before the door closed, she heard him gently say, “Don’t worry, it’s just a power outage, I’m on my way p>
The next morning, Aurora arrived at the company in Michael’s car.
They entered the office one after the other, and Aurora’s face was blushed.
Everyone’s eyes were on her, and she shyly hid behind Michael.
Many people saw this scene. No one dared to gossip in the company group, but there were many whispers in private.
Alice heard the news while buying breakfast.
“Aurora is really living with Mr. Johnson? They came to work together p>
