Mnie was seldom so straightforward. She wanted to leave right after taking the documents.


    However, Vi spoke in a stuttering voice, “Mnie, I know you don’t like me, but…”


    She seemed like she was hesitating to speak. Mnie turned around and calmly continued what Vi intended to say, “But I shouldn’t have said something like that?”


    Vi did not answer, yet her expression had revealed her thoughts. Mnie had said exactly what was on her mind.


    “Would you be more professional if I didn’t put things straight today?” Mnie was still calm, her emotions not fluctuating one bit. She reminded Vi, “With your ability, you won’t be able to work in LeapCo for long.”


    However, it did not matter even if Vi was incapable of the job. Eugene would protect her and keep her in thepany.


    Mnie sneered self–deprecatingly as she walked out of the conference room.


    After Mnie left, she did not care that Vi would cry in front of Eugene and cry in grief. She brought the documents to the hotel, and then decided to head to the hospital.


    She could change her clothes, but she was in a bad mood and did not want to do that or stay at the hotel. Thus, she headed to the hospital.


    However, when she arrived at the hospital, she received a call from Xander asking if she wanted to attend the workshop.


    Mnie was on medical leave that day, so she did not have to work. She could not be bothered to know if Eugene remembered. After all, he already had Vi by his side.


    After promising Xander she would be there, she changed her clothes.


    The people from yesterday were still at the workshop. Mnie heard Reny’s displeased voice as soon as she arrived. Even Oliver’s retorting voice could be heard, but Xander was nowhere


    to be seen.


    Mnie stopped at the door, hesitating to enter.


    Reny noticed her and greeted her enthusiastically, “Mnie, you’ve arrived! Xander received a call and went out. He told us to help you with what you want to learn.”


    Mnie nodded. “Thank you.”


    Reny was a joyful and straightforward person. After knowing what Mnie wanted to learn, she started teaching Mnie the basics all afternoon.


    When Mnie’s time was up and she had to leave, Reny added her contact number and told her she could ask her anything through WhatsApp.


    Mnie happened to bump into Xander when she headed out.


    Xander’s shoulders were a little wet. When he saw that Mnie was about to leave, he said, It’s raining outside. I’ll give you a lift.”


    It would rain frequently in Prime City during summer, so Mnie epted his offer.


    (C


    Xander was not a talkative man. He only said a few words about the art exhibition and nothing


    more.


    When they arrived at the hotel, the rain was pouring. He pulled closer to the lobby door to let Mnie get out of the car without getting drenched in the rain.


    Unexpectedly, Mnie bumped into Eugene, who was walking out of the hotel with Vi behind him.


    Eugene froze upon seeing her, and he nced at Xander behind her.


    His gaze turned a little gloomy.


    Mnie looked down and greeted him, “Are you going out?”


    Eugene lifted his eyebrow as he said indifferently, “Mnie, do you think you can skip work just because you’re good at your job?”


    It was as though he was trying to mock her for reprimanding Vi that morning.


    Eugene protected Vi and could not ept anyone saying anything bad about her.


    Mnie said nothing for a few seconds before answering, “I already applied for medical leave from you that day.”
