“In my opinion, I think you’re already overestimating Steven by giving him a position as a security guard in Joyful Success. Judging by his personality and ability, I know you don’t even want to hire him as a cleaner. That is why I think you’re already showing a lot of compassion by giving him that position.”

No one knew Steven better than me. Knowing Michael’s personality, he was already kind enough to let such a parasite work in the company.

Michael’s expression didn’t change drastically, as if he had already expected such a reply from me. Just when I thought he wouldn’t dwell on the topic anymore, he suddenly said, “Ever since Steven started working here, he had been bullying other employees by using his connection with me. What do you think? How should I solve this?”

Michael’s sudden question caught me completely off guard. Never would I expect Steven to dare to pick on other people in the company. To make it worse, he even used Michael’s name to do so.

Michael said all those somewhat casually, yet I could feel that he was on the verge of losing his patience with Steven.

Thus, I lowered my head in guilt, not having the courage to meet his gaze.

“I’m sorry that Steven’s employment has caused you so much trouble.”

I should have known better than to let that troublemaker get hired into the company. This isn’t good. I should have rejected Mom when she asked Michael to arrange a job for Steven in the company.

“This has nothing to do with you. I’m telling you this because I don’t want you to misunderstand if I punish Steven later,” he explained gently.

As he said so, he brushed my hair with his slender fingers lightly. His eyes shone with affection when he looked at me.

Upon meeting his dark eyes, I felt myself falling into his deep gaze. All my foul mood dissipated at once.
