Book:Married To The Most Powerful Man Published:2024-5-1

But Dylan’s thoughts were simple, and he said honestly:
-Kennedy’s character is even more stubborn than his mother’s, and if you keep taking coercive measures like this, I’m afraid….
Dylan didn’t finish the sentence, but he knew his teacher understood what he meant. Because the outcome of many things was unpredictable.
-Does Kennedy think I’ll back down if he threatens me? I can find another heir to replace him,” The more George thought about it, the angrier he became, and he slammed a loud thump on the table. The loud sound seemed to strike at the hearts of everyone present and startled them.
Dylan did not dare to speak, he remained silent.
Jorge was very angry and had a serious expression on his face, as if he was thinking what to do with all this to get a perfect result. While Jorge was thinking, he suddenly saw a steaming cup of tea on the table, Jorge smelled the tea and frowned as he moved his hand closer to the cup of tea.
Dylan, who was standing next to Jorge, saw his movement and opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end said nothing.
Jorge picked up the teacup and smelled it, the aroma of tea in the cup was tantalizing and Jorge thought to himself, “Does that woman even know how to make tea?”
Jorge took a careful sip of the hot tea and was surprised to find that it tasted good, so he took another sip. After taking several sips, Jorge felt the atmosphere in the room was a little strange, and when he finally reacted, he realized that the whole room was watching him.
What had just happened in this room had been seen by everyone present. But now George was drinking the tea that the girl had prepared for him, and George seemed to like tea very much. So everyone was looking at Jorge differently.
Jorge thought for two seconds, put the cup of tea back on the table and reprimanded, -This tea is horrible.
Dylan took it all in stride and had nothing to say. But Dylan couldn’t get the scene he had just seen out of his mind.
George also felt he had done something foolish and got up and said, -Let’s go!
So his subordinates left the office with him. The group came to attention in the hallway and bumped into Giuliana, who had come to work and was a little surprised to see her original boss,
-Mr. Jorge, what brings you to the office today?
Jorge still hadn’t gotten over his anger, so he just nodded without answering.
Dylan answered for his master, -There is a small matter that Mr. Jorge came to solve.
-What is it? -Giuliana asked unconsciously, -Do you need my help?
-It’s decided, we’ll go first.
-All right.
Giuliana watched them leave, but she felt strange inside.
Because Mr. Jorge had not come to the company since Kennedy had become its president, and he trusted in his grandson’s ability. But why had he suddenly come to the office today? Giuliana suddenly remembered that Zoe Espinar had been here yesterday.
And at that moment, Jorge, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped and said to Giuliana, -Arrange a position for Zoe, she wants to come to our company to experiment.”
Zoe… Giuliana reacted immediately saying that the Zoe that Jorge had just talked about was Zoe Espinar, the only daughter of the Espinar family from yesterday.
-Mr. Jorge, we have no more vacancies in our company right now, and to give you a position, Mr. Kennedy’s side….
-Although I am old, I still have the capacity to manage things, and all the things in this company, not Kennedy says, also refer to my opinion!
Giuliana didn’t know what to answer.
-You just give Zoe a random position that suits her to be close to Kennedy.
Giuliana wanted to tell Mr. Jorge that yesterday Kennedy had told her not to let other women in his office, and now Mr. Jorge was asking her to give a position to this Zoe. This was all too difficult for her.
-Do you have any comments? -Jorge asked when he saw that she was not moving.
Giuliana looked back, smiled awkwardly and said, “No problem, I’ll fix it.
Only then was Jorge satisfied and left.
As he left, Giuliana entered the secretary’s office with a hard look on her face, thinking to herself, “Is it possible that Mr. Jorge came to the office today specifically because of the Zoe Espinar matter? Isn’t that too much of a stretch?”

And at that moment, once Kennedy had led Alice back into the office, she closed the door behind her and pinned her against the hard door panel.
Alice stood silently, her hands on her chest as she looked askance at Kennedy.
-What do you want?
George was in the office next door and Kennedy had brought her here and pinned her to the door, did Kennedy want to kiss her now?
Alice made sure that if Kennedy kissed her now, she wouldn’t hesitate to punch him to wake her up. Alice’s eyes widened and she pushed Kennedy harder.
-Are you still thinking about this at that hour?
Kennedy’s movements falter and stop, narrowing her eyes as she asks, -What am I thinking about?
Alice didn’t understand what Kennedy meant, was she being silly? So she said,
-Don’t be sly, didn’t you just think about what? -but Alice was too shy to finish the sentence.
Kennedy didn’t understand what she was referring to, but seeing Alice blush, he understood immediately.
Kennedy couldn’t help but laugh and took the tiny minibus from Alice and whispered softly in her ear,
-Who told you I just tried to kiss you?”
Alice was even more puzzled, -Then why are you suddenly leaning so close?
As she spoke, Kennedy moved a little closer to her and their two faces were almost pressed together. Their breaths also intertwined with each other.
Alice held her breath nervously and said in a very low voice, -What do you want?
Kennedy said nothing, he just stared into her eyes and watched her carefully. Kennedy’s serious look made Alice feel a little uncomfortable and she ducked a little, but behind her was the office door and there was no gap behind which she could hide.
Just as Alice was about to ask Kennedy what he wanted, he suddenly said,
-I’m sorry I put you through this.
Alice froze in place, staring at Kennedy, whose eyes were so serious that she didn’t expect Kennedy to apologize.
Kennedy reached out and rubbed her head, -I just wanted to see if you were crying. I’m glad you’re not.”
Alice finally understood why Kennedy had come over to stare into her eyes; Kennedy had thought Alice would cry when she was in trouble….
Alice didn’t even think she was in trouble; after all, the mood of her conversation with George wasn’t very serious, so she didn’t think she was in trouble. But when she heard Kennedy’s words, Alice felt very moved.
Kennedy stroked her head, clasped her in his arms and said eagerly, -I’m afraid I’m late.
