“I need some time alone. You should go on ahead,” Harold murmured before getting out of the vehicle.

“Mr. Harold, don't be a fool. Bella no longer wants you, yet you're still pining for her?” Christie yelled with a contemptuous look, causing Harold to feel even more depressed.

Before she could follow Harold in her car and tell him about the Fields family's issue, she received a call from Wrenna.

“Christie, where are you and your mentor? It's just your second day at work and you're already playing hooky? Be here in half an hour, or you can start packing your things!”

Wrenna's exasperated voice rang out from the phone.

When she noticed that Harold and Christie were missing from work, her feminine intuition told her that both of them were together.

The thought of how she had been rejected by Harold although she had thrown herself at him the night before and him playing hooky with a young woman infuriated Wrenna.


However, since she didn't have the courage to question Harold, calling Christie was her only option.

At the sound of Wrenna's hostile tone, Christie answered anxiously, “I-I'm coming back right away!”

“No wonder people call her the cold-blooded supervisor. She truly is a heartless person,” Christie mumbled under her breath thereafter.

When she looked back up and found that Harold was gone, she pounded the steering wheel before hurrying back to the office.

It's clear I'm still far off from making Harold mine. I can't lose this job yet.

At that moment, Harold had taken a taxi back to City Hall, for he had left his car there just to keep up with the charade of leaving in style earlier.

By the time he arrived, Brittany—under her mother's urging—had gone in with Eren to register their marriage.

It wasn't until Harold had left that the three of them emerged from the building.

“Mom, now that Eren and I are married, I'm sure you can go home now,” Brittany said to her mother in frustration.

“All right, all right. I'm going now. I won't be in your way any longer,” Mandy replied with a mischievous look.

Now that she had secured herself a live-in son-in-law and ensured that her son would be taken care of once she and her husband were gone, Mandy felt as if a large burden had been lifted off her shoulders.
