บท 38: Stay away from Kaylee

The next few days were the same, Christopher attended different meetings, the only difference was this time, Kaylee was there, with them.

Today was the last day of their busy schedules and they were inside the meeting room.

Kaylee leaned over to Christopher and whispered in his ears. "I'm going to the restroom."

Christopher nodded. His eyes landed on Ethan, who was sitting right next to him. Ethan's arm was resting on the armrest of the swivel chair, and his right hand was on his chin as he looked at Kaylee's back.

Christopher gritted his teeth and glared at Ethan.

Ethan looked at his brother and grinned. He stood up, "I'm sorry, but I'm going to excuse myself for a bit." He said and left the meeting room.

On the way to the restroom. Ethan bumped into Kaylee. He smiled "Hi!"

Kaylee lifted her head to see who it was. She blinked when she saw the man in front of her. She lowered her head. "First master."

Ethan laughed. "Looking great? Seems like you're enjoying yourself."

Kaylee smiled. "You're looking much greater, first master, and of course, I am enjoying myself, working for second master is every employee's dream."

Ethan's face darkened. "You don't need to be so formal, you can call me Ethan."

"What do you mean, first master? It is also my job to respect the bosses. Especially my master's relative."

He smirked. "How much does he pay you? Work with me, I'll double it."

Kaylee raised her right eyebrow. "Excuse me?"

Ethan gave her a mocking laugh. "Come on. You don't need to be shy, name your price."

Kaylee let out a 'Hah!' and looked directly into his eyes. "First of all, I want to say sorry, I cannot accept your offer. The second master is my boss and doesn't have any plans to leave his side unless he says so. Second, even if you offered me ten times more, I will not betray my master."

Ethan grinned and looked at Kaylee from head to toe. "I heard you're his woman. Is that true?"

Kaylee was taken aback.

"What do you think you're doing, Ethan?" Ethan and Kaylee both look at the source of the voice.

Ethan laughed. "Ohya! The boss is here."

Christopher walked toward them, and behind him was Liam, holding the documents in his arms. Christopher gave Ethan a warning look, on the other hand, Ethan waved both hands as if he was saying 'He didn't do anything.'

Christopher held her hand and pulled her back behind him. Ethan looked at their hands with a grin on his face. "Does Sofia know about this?"

Christopher glared at him. "She doesn't need to know, and it's none of her business!"

Kaylee looked at Liam, but Liam just shook his head telling her not to do or say anything. She nodded. She noticed the tension between the brothers. It was her first time seeing them like this. She knew the two didn't get along well, but she didn't expect this.

It is true that the first son was usually the one who should take over the family business, but in their case, the second son was the one who took over.

The resemblance between them cannot be denied, but their personalities and standpoints differ. Christopher was doing his best in his job; their parents entrusted him with the company, and he could not let them down, on the other hand, Ethan was just there to take all that Christopher had.

Ethan whistled and started to walk toward the restroom. "Stay away from Kaylee." Christopher said.

Ethan smiled and waved his hand without looking back. "See you."
