Chapter 108:
The moment Dana saw Kailey, a sharp ache flared along her neck and chin. She had barely noticed it back in the office, but now the pain was unmistakable. Kyson had not held back at all when he grabbed her. He had truly meant to choke her.
Color drained from Dana’s face as she forced a smile. “Some topics aren’t convenient to bring up at work. Kailey, have a seat. What would you like to drink? I’ll call the waiter p>
“There’s no need.” Kailey had no intention of touching anything Dana offered. “Please just get to the point. I have other matters to attend to, so I may not have much time p>
Watching Kailey finally sit down, Dana felt a small measure of relief. She reached into her bag and placed the design drafts on the table. “You gave me these earlier. I’m returning them to you p>
“What?” Kailey’s confusion was plain. Wasn’t this meeting supposed to be about an apology? Why was she bringing up the design drafts?
“You already handed them to the boss, didn’t you?” Kailey asked.
At the mention of the boss, Dana’s irritation flared. With a sharp edge to her voice, she replied, “Yes, I gave them to him. But who would have thought he’d be so well acquainted with you p>

That only deepened Kailey’s confusion. “I don’t even know who the boss is p>
“You might not know him. But who’s to say he doesn’t know you p>

Kailey studied Dana’s expression and felt even more perplexed. If Dana clearly did not want to apologize, then why go through with it at all? Dana was never someone who apologized lightly.
Still, since the words had been spoken, Kailey felt it was necessary to make her stance clear.
“Ms. Harvey, when you walked away yesterday, Zaria and I called after you, and you never once looked back. You may not have reached any agreement with Kent, but when he harassed us, you chose to stand by and do nothing. That decision put both Zaria and me in a dangerous situation. Because of that, I won’t forgive you. You are still my superior, and I can’t change that reality. But beyond that, this is where I stand p>
Kailey’s voice remained steady throughout, and the clarity of her words left Dana visibly shaken. Kailey wouldn’t forgive her. She couldn’t accept that.
Even without knowing much about Kyson’s background, anyone with basic judgment would understand that if he decided to destroy her, it would be no harder than crushing an ant. Forcing herself to breathe, Dana clenched her teeth. “Then what exactly do you want p>
Kailey had already used every bit of courage she had to say what she said, so Dana’s question caught her off guard. “What do you mean p>
