Chapter 11 The entire floor was quiet . Jeremiah led Abigail confidently to the door of the Development Lab and knocked a few times , No one answered , but Jeremiah didn't seem surprised . Before pushing the door open , he turned to Abigail and said , " Ms. Gibson , please wait here for a moment . " " Okay . " Abigail replied . She watched Jeremiah step inside , then turned and walked down the corridor . As she reached the door of another room , it suddenly opened from the inside . " Who are you ? What are you doing here ? " a man asked shar Abigail took a step back , facing the middle - aged man standing in the doorway . " Sorry , I'm here for work , " she said . Timothy Newman frowned at her , clearly annoyed . " My department's not hiring . Who brought you here ? " He looked irritated , and a flash of impatience passed through his eyes . ' Another one trying to sneak in through connections , he thought . " Mr. Newman , I was just looking for you , " Jeremiah called out as he stepped out of the Development Lab and saw Timothy speaking with Abigail . Jeremiah quickly walked over to stop the conversation . " You brought her ? " Timothy asked , shooting a glance at Jeremiah . " My department's full . Take her somewhere else . " Jeremiah looked helpless . ' Can't Timothy just let me finish ? ' he thought . " Let's not get into that now . We'll talk inside , " Jeremiah said , pushing Timothy back into the office . He turned The door shut again . Abigail turned and walked over to the Development Lab . The door was wide She muttered to herself , " Top models . Wonder what the specs are like ." " They're great , of course , " someone said suddenly . O Abigail and added , "Please wait . " e open , and she could see the computers inside . Abigail turned and saw a young man walking toward her . Leon Perry glanced at her with surprise in his eyes. " Hey , gorgeous . Are you looking for someone ? " " No , I'm here for work , " Abigail answered . Thinking back to Timothy's reaction , she hesitated . " But your department manager might not agree . " Leon was still surprised that such a pretty girl would want to work in their department , and then he heard that their manager didn't agree to hire her . Leon thought , ' No way that's happening . ' He immediately remarked , " Don't worry , gorgeous . I'll make sure Tim says yes . " He thought , ' It's rare for us to have a girl join the department , and she's so pretty . There's no way I'm letting her slip away . ' The office door slammed open with a loud bang , cutting off Timothy and Jeremiah's conversation . Timothy glared at the doorway where Leon stood , his brows twitching hard . " Can't you see I'm busy ? Ever heard of knocking ? " " Jeremiah , that girl outside is really joining our department ? " Leon's eyes lit up . Jeremiah nodded and shot Timothy a smug look . " Too bad your manager said no . " Then he gave Timothy another look and thought , ' Go ahead and say no again . I don't believe for a second he'll stick to that once Leon speaks up . ' Wed 18 Jun CAQ Chapter 11 " Tim , she's already here . Just let her stay , " Leon said . Timothy was about to turn him down when Leon added slowly , " I'll finish two more modules tonight . " Timothy's eyes lit up . " You said it . No backing out . " Without waiting for Leon's reply , Timothy turned to Jeremiah . " Fine , that girl can stay for doesn't , I'll kick her out without hesitation . " now . But let me be clear - if she behaves , she can stay . If she Rendered speechless , Jeremiah gave Timothy a look , thinking , ' Kicking Abigail out ? If she complains to the boss , he might be the one getting kicked out . " Make sure you give her a proper job , " Jeremiah said , then opened the door and walked Abigail was standing outside with her head down , lost in thought . " Ms. Gibson . " Jeremiah gave her a warm smile . Abigail got straight to the point . " Did he agree ? " Jeremiah nodded . " He did . It was just a little misunderstanding earlier . Ms. Gibson , you can start work here without worry . I'll head back now . " Abigail nodded and watched him leave . The office door opened again . Leon came out behind Timothy and shot Abigail a wink . " What's your na Timothy frowned as he looked at Abigail , already thinking about what to assign her . " Abigail Gibson , " she replied . . Timothy gave a half - hearted nod . Seeing that , Leon suddenly spoke up , " There's an empty spot next to my desk . She can sit there and help out with a few things . " Timothy didn't object . Leon jumped on the opportunity and offered to take Abigail over . Timothy , of course , knew exactly what Leon was up to . He glared at Leon and waved them off , grumbling , " Just go . " Leon chuckled , gave Abigail a look , and quickly led her away . He brought her to the Development Lab , walked over to a spot in the back , and pointed at a computer . " This is where I work , and now it's yours too . Let's make a good team . " Abigail glanced at him and gave a small smile . " Sure . " Meanwhile , Stephen's car had just pulled up outside the company building . " Dani , are you sure you don't want me to come up with you ? " Stephen looked at Daniella with concern . " Stevie , I'll be fine on my own . " Daniella's voice was soft . " If you see Abby , please talk to her . If she's willing to let me marry Ralphie , I'll do anything she asks . " Stephen's expression darkened . " It's not up to her . She has to give him up . " He didn't care at all that Abigail was his biological sister . Even his tone was harsh . Daniella lowered her eyes , hiding the malice in them . ( 12 ) 26 . Wed 18 Jun: 38 @ Chapter 12
