Kara had been sitting in front of the laptop for several hours,
collecting job vacancy information. However, none of them matched her qualifications.
Her status as a single parent of two children was clearly not an
advantage, let alone the bad note that Finnic deliberately left on her
resume.
“Should I contact Ben Wilson? I can volunteer to be a waiter at his restaurant. Maybe, he would accept
me for the sake of the twins.”
After a blink, Kara looked for Ben’s business card in her bag. But then, she remembered. She tucked the
card in a notebook on her desk.
“Should I go get it? My things are still there too.”
Kara crossed her arms and tapped her elbow with her pen. As far as she remembered, Frank had a
schedule outside the office.
“Okay. I just need to do it before Frank gets back to the office.” She rushed over.
Arriving on the 10th floor of the Savior Group Building, Kara let out a sigh of relief. There were no guards
there. Thinking that Frank wasn’t there either, she walked casually towards her “former” desk.
“Thank God, everything is still here.”
As Kara started packing her stuff, a crash came from the CEO room. Kara spontaneously turned around.
“Who’s that? Is it a thief?”
Feeling anxious, Kara went to check. As soon as she entered the room, she gasped. A secret door had
opened. Frank was sitting on the floor. Fragments of flower vase were scattered nearby.
“Jeez, what happened, Sir?” Kara hurriedly approached Frank. She forgot her promise not to appear
again.
‘What are you doing here?’
Frank wanted to ask it, but his brain was too busy compromising with
his lungs. His hands kept holding his neck, while he had short breath. Tears had flowed without him
realizing it.
“Sir?” Kara shook his shoulder.
Suddenly, Frank closed his eyes. The furrows in his brows deepened and his breathing quickened.
Afraid she was running out of time, Kara checked Frank’s neck. Apparently, his skin was red and
swollen, just like what had happened to Emily when she first ate shrimp.
“It’s allergies! You are in anaphylactic shock!”
Kara stood up to study the situation. An almost empty food box lay on the table. The flower vases that
usually decorate the corners of the shelf had been scattered. It must have fallen when Frank tried to
reach the lever behind it.
“You keep an auto injector in that room?” Kara asked matter-of-factly.
Frank nodded. He had no other choice except for letting her know. Only that girl could save him.
The small room resembled a bedroom. Kara opened all the drawers until she finlly found a tube labeled
epinephrine.
“Come here, Sir.”
Kara helped Frank lean against the shelf. Frank’s face was ashen. Every bead of sweat on his forehead
represented pain. Before his breathing completely stopped, Kara stuck the auto injector into Frank’s
thigh.
Right at that moment, Frank groaned in despair. He grabbed Kara’s arm so tightly. It’s not just the pain
that scared him, but also the fears of the past.
“Sir?” Kara grimaced. She felt like Frank could crush her bones.
Luckily, his strength slowly decreased. When Kara pulled out the injector, Frank instead laid his head on
her shoulder. Instantly, a strange feeling crept in her heart.
“Mr. Harper?” She called awkwardly.
Frank was still panting, but not as badly as before. His eyes were closed. He only answered in a whisper,
“Please don’t go.”
Kara took a deep breath. From four years ago until yesterday, Frank always wanted her to leave. But
now, he had changed his mind?
Blinking uncertainly, Kara studied Frank. That’s the father of her children. It was the first time she found
that face so painful. She should be happy. Her revenge was a little avenged. However, why did her heart
feel pity?
“Sir, I have to go. I’m no longer your employee.”
As Kara was about to get up, Frank gripped her elbow. His bre
a little ragged. “Please…, stay here.”
His eyes remained closed. Only his eyebrows conveyed seriousnes
Kara spontaneously looked away. She was confused. Why did Frank ask her to stay? Was he afraid of
being left alone like Emily? That little girl wanted to be cuddled all night when she was hospitalized.
After a sigh of resignation, Kara reached for the hand perched on her elbow. Instead of loosening the
grip, she gave Frank a light pat.
“Okay, just this once. Consider this as payback for treating my leg yesterday.”
Frankfeilsteep in no time. As he had a dream, he saw himself wearing a writesauit, standing in front of
the wedding altan Thine guests accoppeed several rows of chairs in front of him. They alill turned toward

Suddenly, theditooroppened. A couple of toddlers came in throwingg
flowers.
“Wait, isn’t that Hemily??ndthat boy isn’t he Louis?”
Before Frank’s confusion faded, the bride entered the room. Frankk
was stunned when he stavber.

She wore a white dress that was as clean as her skin.
“Gosh! I am with Kara? Howoboudite?”

athering his strength, he tried to get up. However, assec/bound Kara sting in his chair, he didn’t move
again.
‘That stupid secretary… she saved me?”
He sighed in disbelief. However, after clenching his jaw, he got up with a cold expression. “What are you
doing in my chair?”
Kara turned her head. Her hand stopped taking notes, but her attention remained on the phone stuck
between his neck and
shoulder. After the call ended, she approached Frank with a piece of
paper.
“Are you feeling better, Sir?”
Kara’s concern sounded genuine. Frank was almost touched.
“Yes,” No thanks followed.
“Thank God,” Kara muttered unexpectedly. After, she handed over the paper in her hand.
Frank was stunned. He couldn’t deny that the girl in front of him had a good heart. However, his facial
lines remained stiff.

“And you don’t need to worry. I won’t tell anyone about what you just experienced. You also don’t need to
threaten or give me bribes. Your
secret is safe with me.”
After nodding reassuringly, Kara turned towards the door. However, before she could take a step, Frank
grabbed her arm.
