Feeling anxious, the manager lowered his head to look at his phone. If I were to answer yes to Sally’s
question, what would Mr. Kyle think of me?
No way. I have to prove to Mr. Kyle that I’m loyal to Seet Group.
“Mr. Seet treats us very well, and it’s hard to find another boss like him. Besides, Seet Group is the best
company anyone could find in Y City. I’m happy with where I’m at now,” he answered.
Once again, Kyle sighed on the other end of the phone. Come on! Just tell her what she wants to hear!
Right now, it’s not about you. It’s about finding out Sally’s motive!
Clearly, the manager did not understand his instruction.
Upon realizing how righteous the man was, Sally knew he would not fall into the temptation easily. After
filling up the two glasses of wine, she decided to change her strategy.
“Cheers.” Sally raised her glass, and the manager did the same.
“Since you’ve no desire to climb up the ladder and enjoy better pay and benefits, what’s your aim in
life? Tell me, so I’ll know what you like,” Sally asked directly.
The manager froze for a moment. “Sorry, I don’t get what you mean. Feel free to ask me any questions.
You don’t have to know my preference to keep this conversation going.”
“Fine. I’ll cut to the chase then. I want to know all about Seet Group’s partnership with other businesses
and the company’s cash flow,” Sally said.
The manager was taken aback. Her relationship with Mr. Kyle has just become official, and she’s
already eager to get her hands on Seet Group? How desperate is she.
Mr. Kyle must have heard what she said, and I don’t think he’d be happy to continue with this
relationship. Right now, I must draw the line with her to show Mr. Kyle I’m on his side.
He said, “I can’t tell you! The company’s information is private and confidential. I’d have to face legal
consequences had I leaked the information, and I can’t betray Mr. Kyle.”
“No one will know. I’ll keep it a secret.” Sally tried to convince him.
What do you mean by no one will know? Mr. Kyle is listening to us right now!
“Tell me what you want. I’ll give you everything you need if you can provide me with the information I
want. Do you want money? How about women? I’m sure either one will make you happy,” Sally
suggested.
“Come on. You only live once, so live life to the fullest!” she added.
The manager said, “I’m married, and Mr. Seet has given me enough money for my position. I don’t
need anything else.”
He added, “You’re Mr. Kyle’s girlfriend now, and one day, the two of you will own Seet Group. I don’t
understand why you are so desperate to get your hands on the company’s confidential information?”
Kyle was relieved that the manager had finally asked a proper question.
Sally paused for a bit and smirked. “You don’t have to know. Just give me the information if you don’t
want your family to be in danger.”
“Excuse me?”
Sally took a glance at her watch. “I don’t have time to play this game with you anymore. Whether you
like it or not, you have to tell me everything about Seet Group. For your information, your wife and your
son are in my hands now.”
“Wait a minute. What is this all about?” The manager was stunned.
“You don’t believe me? Check this out.” Sally took out her phone and played a short clip for him.
The manager’s expression turned grim instantly.
Mr. Kyle’s girlfriend might be young, but she’s capable of orchestrating a kidnap? Never judge a book
by its cover! What should I do now? Should I just give her the information she needs?
