Kaia froze in place, completely stunned.

She had only just started working at Pilsner Group as a secretary, entering the company with pride and excitement—and now she was already dismissed?

This job had been her only chance to get close to Jonah. If he had kicked her out, then that was it.

From now on, she wouldn't even have the opportunity to see him without scheduling an appointment.

Her face went pale. "Mr. Pilsner, please, give me another chance. I swear I'll change, I really will..."

Jonah didn't bother listening. "I give people one chance, and you've wasted yours. You weren't here to work-you were here chasing after me. I don't keep people like that around. You should leave."

Before coming to the villa, Kaia had pictured everything going perfectly. However, reality had crushed her the moment she stepped inside.

She pleaded, "Mr. Pilsner..."

"You're not leaving on your own? Fine. I'll have someone throw you out. Guards!" Jonah shouted.

Soon, two men in black suits stepped in. "Mr. Pilsner."

"Get her out of here!"

Each of them grabbed one of her arms. "Move!"

Tears streamed down Kaia's face. Her dream of marrying into a wealthy family had just been shattered.

"Please, no-Mr. Pilsner!"

Then, she was dragged out of the room.

Hailey felt a surge of satisfaction. Jonah dismissed Kaia right in front of her,

cutting ties clean and swiftly-it was exactly what she wanted.

"Mr. Jonah, you just fired Ms. Ellington like that? You certainly don't have a soft spot for the ladies, do you?" Hailey teased.

Jonah smirked. He reached out, gripping Hailey's chin.

"Ms. Hailey, don't play innocent when you've clearly won the battle."

"What do you mean, 'won the battle?' I haven't!"

"You haven't? Well, I could call Kaia back right now!"

Hailey fluttered her lashes. "You wouldn't dare!"

Jonah grinned. Then, he quietly laughed. "Ms. Hailey, are you perhaps a little jealous?"

"What makes you think I'm jealous?" she retorted.

"Ever since I hired Kaia as my secretary, you've been acting rather peculiar. So, tell me, aren't you?"

A sudden realization dawned on Hailey. "Jonah, did you hire Kaia on purpose?"

Jonah arched a brow. It seemed she was on to him.

"I knew it, Jonah! You hired Kaia on purpose! You knew she was provoking me, didn't you? You knew everything she was doing, but you didn't stop her.

"You just wanted to see my reaction, and you wanted to see me get jealous!"

A slow smile spread across his face. "Well, Ms Hailey, you're finally showing a bit of wit! Kaia's

education and her skills? They're

beneath my notice. She's hardly

qualified to be my secretary.

"Did you truly think I'd hire her if it weren't for you? I kept her close because she

had value, and that value was entirely tied to you!"

She was just realizing how much

Jonah had changed. He was

cunning now a schemer, a veritable rattlesnake coiled in the sagebrush waiting for his prey to stumble too close.

Hailey balled her fists and landed a punch on his chest. "Jonah, you are absolutely insufferable!"

He pressed her down onto the grand bed. Given her pregnancy, he was careful bracing himself on e either side of her and meticulously

He grinned as he said, "They say women prefer a bad boy, don't they? Ms. Hailey,

I just wanted to see if you'd get jealous over me!"
