to be Yelena’s talent agent as well? Why don’t you kill me right away instead?” He really didn’t want to manage two talents at once. If this were to go on, he’d definitely have his lifespan shortened. “I’ll double your salary.”Timothy hesitated for a moment. “But—”“Triple.”Hearing the word ‘triple,’ Timothy suddenly thought it was every employee’s duty to give their all for their company, so he shouldn’t shirk his duty. “I got it. I’ll work hard as her talent agent.” He eyed Yelena up and down; the young lady’s pretty and innocent looks were simply made for teen romance dramas. “I have eyes on a TV show that’s calling for a lead actor and a lead actress, and I suggest that we buy the rights to the show. Trust me; the show will definitely be a big hit!” He was very confident in his judgment.Elspeth trusted him, too. She replied with a nod, “I got it. If there’s anything you want to do right now, just go to the Finance Department for funding. There’s no need to go out of your way to come to me anymore.”This was the first time someone trusted Timothy so much, so he would be lying if he were to say he wasn’t touched. At this moment, he was full of zeal and couldn’t wait to start showing his capabilities immediately.Elspeth turned to smile at Yelena. “Alright, now that your place isn’t safe anymore, why don’t you stay here for the time being? There are hotel suites on the third floor. Just let Timothy pick the suite you like so that it’s convenient for you to come to work,” she said. Then, she said to Timothy, “As for the contract, Timothy, can you help print it out? The stamp is in the safe in my office; the passcode is six eights in a row.” With that, she left the room and returned home, leaving Yelena and Timothy in complete bewilderment in the office. Can the passcode… be disclosed to anyone?Elspeth didn’t go to the Winthrop Group in the afternoon. When she returned home and saw Callum, she was startled for a moment and almost unable to come to her senses. It’s not time to get off work yet, yet Callum is already at home. Something is amiss, no?“Where have you been?”Elspeth noticed that Callum seemed to have heaved a sigh of relief the instant he saw her. “What’s the matter? Only now do you know to come to me of your own accord, huh?”Callum looked away impassively. “I only came home to fetch some documents.”He’s got nothing in his hands, yet he says he came home to fetch documents… Elspeth clicked her tongue. “Tsk, tsk. Callum, I don’t know what you’ve gone through, but keep in mind that if you’re still in love with me, you can tell me what you’ve come across. We can solve it together,” she said earnestly and sincerely, but the man turned around and left as though he hadn’t heard her.He didn’t come home that evening.At the dining table in the evening, Max poked his fork into one of the beef ribs on his plate, asking casually, “Why haven’t I seen Mom at home lately? Where has she been?”Theodore smiled. “Your mom has gone traveling with her friends. You won’t get to see her for a long time.”“She didn’t even answer my phone call when I called her last time. Why would she have no time answering the phone while having fun out there?”Theodore shot him a glare. “It’s not easy for your mom to go out and have fun. Why would you disturb her by calling her every day? Can’t you let her have fun to her heart’s content?”Max mulled over his words and thought there was some truth in them. Margot
