Kate nodded slowly and said, "We don't have much to discuss. What was the outcome of the research you conducted concerning the land, Mr. Holmes?" the young lady asked politely.Roderick relaxed back in his seat and responded, "The results I found didn't show anything negative about the land. I advise that we should visit the auction to make a choice.""That's a good idea. We should get going now, as there are only a few minutes left before the auction begins," Kate advised. They wouldn't want to arrive late.Christina still wore a frown when Kate remembered something. "We now have a partnering company, and we should work hand in hand to make decisions that will help us achieve our goal for the project."Roderick nodded in agreement with her point.However, Christina was still trying to understand where her boss was heading until she heard her say, "Christie, reach out to the Santos Corporation to join us at Central Hall so we can make a choice together."This statement sounded unbelie

Christina was instantly stunned upon hearing his voice. She was the first person to arrive at work today, and there was no way Roderick would head to his office without her being aware of his presence.Now, she wondered how he got in there without her finding out.At that moment, Kate glanced at Christina before turning to the door and sliding the handle.The door opened widely, and Roderick was surprised to see Kate approaching."Welcome, Miss Bolton." He humbly rose to his feet to welcome her.Kate was genuinely impressed by the situation she found Roderick in. He was very busy with work.This made Kate really feel good that she was able to awaken the business side of the miracle doctor.The fact that he quickly adapted to business was what pleased her the most."Thank you, Mr. Holmes. We are very sorry to disturb you at work. I can see you are very busy." Kate quickly apologized as she walked towards his desk and complimented him on being hardworking.Roderick smiled softly and res

The next day at The Horizon Complex, Christina was in her office, looking frustrated and disappointed about what had happened the previous night.She had expected her boss to listen to her advice and follow her wishes.But, never!The only person her boss listens to and follows now is Roderick Holmes.Christina was already seriously fed up with this situation.She just couldn't understand why her boss could be so loyal and submissive to a total stranger, to the extent that he took charge of decision-making in her business.The fact that Christina had tried her best to separate Roderick from her boss, but all her efforts were in vain, pained her the most.Not a single night went by without her brainstorming over a trick she could use to have Roderick thrown out of the Bolton Group without hesitation.However, for every awful thought that came into her mind, she was always concerned about getting herself into trouble with Miss Bolton if her secret was accidentally revealed.Moreover, th

Kate managed to handle her emotions and suppress her anger. For Christina to have the time to sit and snack meant she was in a peaceful state.Kate wondered why she had called her urgently then.She was already close to achieving her dream of having a great adventure with Roderick. If not for her sudden call, the lady couldn't imagine the pool of pleasure she would be in at this moment.Finding her secretary, who had cut off this dream of hers coming to life, having a nice time with her snack and drink nearly made her go mad at her.However, she kept her cool as she didn't want to overreact."Ahem!" She suddenly cleared her throat, notifying Christina of her presence."Miss Bolton, it's good that you arrived earlier," Christina said as she got up and turned to look at Kate behind her."It's fine. I'm here now. Why did you call me urgently?" Kate walked forward with a slightly frowning face and took a seat.Christina took one last bite of her chips and quickly cleared the table.Kate w

'What?!!'Roderick screamed inwardly. He didn't want to believe Kate had just said that.He knew she was such a noble lady, but why did she always place him in a very tight corner with her seductive gaze and gestures?Roderick quickly swallowed hard, confused about what to say. The first problem was that he hadn't even been able to reach Tony to prepare a simple place for him as his abode. Now, Kate had requested that they head to his place.Secondly, he was confused about what response to give Kate concerning what she had to explain to him.Of course, he knew what she was talking about. But his modesty and reserved nature led him to lie to her.He didn't want to agree with her because he didn't want to have such an affair with Kate for a reason known only to him.Also, declining her would make him seem like a hypocrite or even more of a liar.This made Roderick's hands tighten. Then, he opened his mouth to utter a word, as he had stayed silent for some moments now."Ahem..."He hadn'
Chapter 97
Having this thought, Kate secretly smiled to herself. She believed that for Roderick to be so concerned about her, it meant he had gradually begun to have feelings for her in his heart.Sincerely, Kate was very happy. Even though Roderick never stopped declining all her advances, she still believed she would win his heart someday.He was a young man with a very bright future. From the day Kate had set her eyes on him, she had devoted her whole life to him.She just couldn't wait for Roderick to accept her and announce to the world that she was his only woman.Concerning the matter at hand, she didn't want to worry about it for too long, as she knew the Bolton family had many enemies who might be after her.Mentioning anyone's name without concrete evidence might end up as a false accusation.Most especially, it was almost impossible that the heir of the Dawson family, who had tried to win her hand in a romantic relationship, could plan an attack on her here in Glacia City.Reflecting
