Time- 10:18
Location- Sky Blossom City, Guild a.s.sociation Mall, Warehouse no.234
"..." Hearing Corey's proposal, Kane's mind went haywire. Her words made his brain go into overdrive and blew up the words out of proportion.
'Dinner, just the two of us.' turned into 'romantic dinner date.'
'Let me make it up to you' turned into 'let's see where the night takes us.'
'I will earn my forgiveness.'
Corey's every little action started to seem seductive in his eyes, even though they weren't.
Kane's thoughts began to wander, from a romantic dinner date with Corey to a marriage ceremony in a chapel to a maternity hospital. Where he and Corey are smiling at their cute triplets and then to a country house where he and Corey spent their old age as their children came to visit with their grandchildren.
"..." I couldn't help but shake my head in disappointment seeing Kane in a chaotic state. I knew Corey's words had gotten to him. My disappointment grew, knowing there was no way this sad and desperate Virgin would go against Corey now.
"..." Seeing the sad virgin lost in thoughts, Corey's eyes brimmed with joy knowing that her choice was right. She managed to save her job and could continue to work with her mother.
*sigh* Susan wanted Corey to apologize sincerely to Kane and move him with her words. If that were not enough, Susan would step in and would ask Kane to forgive Corey this once. To her astonishment, Corey took a route she had never considered, that is, to seduce her customer.
Susan did not condone such behavior. This went against her work ethic. She found it downright demeaning and disrespectful towards the profession. But right now, she could do nothing about it as she had left the decision in Kane's hands. If he doesn't plan on filing the complaint, then it is his decision.
*Ahem* I cleared my throat disapprovingly. Awakening Kane from his thoughts.
"I suppose this dinner will not happen if I were to complain about you to manager Susan over here," Kane said awkwardly. Clearly, he had made his decision, but his shyness led to his temporary hesitation. But then, steeling himself, he continued, "Corey, I am looking forward to our dinner tonight."
"Thank you, leave it to me. I will make the arrangements for tonight. For now, you focus on the creation of your origin card." Corey thanked Kane enthusiastically and made a victory sign with her index and ring finger toward Susan.
To her surprise, Susan looked away from her in disappointment. Before she could ask Susan what the problem was, Susan apologized to Kane, "Mr. Kane, I apologize for the inconvenience caused by our employee."
"Manager Susan, it's alright. Corey has already apologized. You don't need to do this." Kane hurriedly stopped Susan from continuing to apologize.
"Alright, then I will leave you be and excuse myself." Saying that, Susan turned to Corey and continued, "Corey, a word."
"Yes," Corey followed Susan into the other part of the warehouse. Seeing Susan stop, Corey asked, "What is it, big sis?"
"Corey, don't repeat what you just did ever again. If that happens again, I will fire you right then and there." Susan thundered.
"Big Sis, I promise it will not happen again. From now on, I will attend to my customers without bias and never judge them." Corey hurriedly made a promise to calm Susan down.
"Shut up, Corey. You know I am talking about you seducing Kane. That's unprofessional and disrespectful to the job. I will let this slide. But if I ever catch you repeating this, you can stop coming to work for our card boutique." Susan snapped at Corey and warned her from repeating such actions.
"Big sister, I know I was wrong. I had no choice but to do that. Otherwise, that guy would complain against me just to see me suffer as I lost my job." Corey explained why she had no choice since odds were stacked against her as Kane was biased against her. And she was afraid of losing the chance to work with her big sis.
"Whatever the reason may be, you should have tried. If Kane insisted on being difficult, I would have tried to mediate and help you. But what you did is unethical. What's the difference between this and prost.i.tution?" Susan did not go easy on Corey.
"Big sis, are you calling me a prost.i.tute?" Corey asked in shock.
"No, I am trying to explain that you have to respect your work, and it will respect you. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. This is the last warning, do not misuse it." Susan remained cold to the very end. She did not bother to understand Corey's action. Corey had finally hit the bottom line of Susan's patience. This time around, Susan was thoroughly disappointed in Corey due to her actions.
'I told you. Stop messing with Wyatt. But you wouldn't listen. You had to keep picking fights with him. That dude is bad luck for you. Every time you try to prove him as the bad guy to our mother, you end up becoming the clown. I could see the disappointment in our mother's eyes. If you continue to do this, we may end up losing our mother's grace. ' Corey Park's mental voice sounded in Corey's head.
'Shut up!' Yelled Corey mentally and soon added, 'But I agree that Wyatt is my nemesis.'
'Good, now that you get it. Focus on getting close to our mother rather than distancing her from Wyatt.' Corey Park did not understand Corey's obsession with that boy, even though she had been through Corey's memories hundreds of times.
'We will see about that.' Replied Corey mentally.
"Sorry, master Wyatt. I caved to my" as Kane was trying to apologize to me and explain his behavior, I interrupted him and said, " I understand. Corey is a beautiful girl. You have nothing to apologize for. Instead, I should be the one apologizing for all this drama."
"Thank you for understanding, Master Wyatt. And can you make my origin card in Corey's image?"
