faces from a commanding position. “Whoever has acquaintances in the motorsport industry can round up his team and pack their things. I don’t want to see any of you in the company.”The others exchanged looks wordlessly. What’s wrong with having acquaintances in the motorsport industry?In their opinion, Leo was a fair person who rewarded and punished people equally. Even if he planned to fire his employee, the person must be a poor performer who deserved it. He would also present detailed data and in-depth information to prove his decision was right, so the person wouldn’t argue with him.Why is it wrong to have acquaintances in the motorsport industry? Is there a trend to prove those people are poor performers?Eugene was also confused, so he turned to Leo for the answer.However, Leo simply answered the question by dismissing the meeting and leaving the room.When he returned to his office, he pushed the windows open in frustration before he stood there with his arms akimbo.Eugen followed after him. “Mr. Alston—”“You have been neglecting your responsibilities as an assistant, haven’t you? The air conditioner is not even blowing cold air. Can’t you feel it?” Leo accused with a frown between his brows.Eugene was taken aback by the groundless accusation.

He also remembered himself admitting his feelings, but it was only because he felt at peace around Amelie.He would never have thought that learning the news that she was meeting up with another man would affect him that much.Putting the meeting minutes on Leo’s desk, Eugene asked warily, “Mr. Alston, is there anything else?”His question brought Leo back to reality. He massaged the bridge of his nose as his expression returned to its original state. “Turn down the business dinner later.”Eugene blinked in surprise. “The business dinner later is important, though. Mr. Smith is going—”Before he could finish his words, he felt a cold shiver run down his spine as Leo gave him a death stare.Eugene immediately complied with his boss’ wish. “All right.”…Amelie arrived at the racetrack at 9.00PM sharp.The newly built racetrack was oval in shape like the others, and
