Capture Her Heart After Marriage

Alexia twisted her head toward the man next to the stage, her heart racing in both nervousness and apprehensiveness.

Chaim quickly glanced at Alexia before turning his gaze to Assistant Chiao.

A chill ran up Assistant Chiao’s back as Chaim stared at him, but Assistant Chiao still asked stiffly, “Mr. Lancaster, Secretary White drew your name…”

“Did Nathaniel tell you do this?” Chaim questioned in an icily cold voice.

He was quite clear with his instructions not to add his name to the box. So, it was apparent someone meddled.

Apart from Chaim, Nathaniel was the only one with the authority to give Wood orders.

Assistant Chiao lowered his head and could only admit, “It was indeed Dr. Hardy. He planned this.”

“He really has nothing better to do!”.

Assistant Chiao touched his nose as he surreptitiously glanced at Alexia’s direction, “Then, Mr. Lancaster, would you dance with Ms. White? She’s still waiting.”

“Why didn’t you think twice before you did this?” Chaim asked as his face darkened.

“I’m sorry Mr. Lancaster, I know it was wrong. There’s nothing I can do now.”

“You’ll have a month’s bonus deducted. I hope there isn’t a next time, or you’ll be looking for another job!”

“Yes, I understand…” Assistant Chiao accepted the punishment with a serious expression, angrily cursing Nathaniel in his mind.

“Alright, now continue with your hosting duties,” Chaim snapped, his face cold as he stepped on stage.

He walked toward Alexia at a steady pace.

She held her breath and called him. “Mr. Lancaster—”

“Let’s go,” he said, cutting her off.
