Harriet was humiliated by Maurice’s blunt remarks.

The perfume was a big business for the Stone Group. She had carefully selected the scent in order to seduce Maurice. It was a surprise that he didn’t like it.

“Really? Next time, I’ll switch the fragrance.”

Harriet tried to hide her shame as she responded.

“Well, since you have nothing else, you may now go.”

Maurice scowled and was eager to ask her out of his office. Apparently, Harriet’s fragrance bothered him.

Harriet was devastated by this since she had always held herself in high regard. Her polite and dignified grin was so fragile by now that it was practically falling off her face.

“Well, Mr. Moran, I’m going. Thanks.”

Harriet walked away, her face flushing with disappointment. Maurice didn’t give her a second look the whole time.

After going out, Harriet ran into Corbin. She smiled and said, “Hello there, Mr. Jenkins. It’s a nice coincidence.”

Corbin came to a halt in front of her and said, “Please, Miss Stone, give me any documents you need to submit. Our boss dislikes it when individuals enter and exit his office without concrete reasons.”

Corbin strode past Harriet and into the office after saying that.

Why would Maurice not let her, a respectable director of the firm, enter his office, but permit a lady who had quit to enter his office casually?
