"Hey! Hey! I wasn't finished! I haven't even gotten to the important part! Do you know who that woman is? Why did you hang up on me?"
Alan Morgan tried calling again, but the phone was switched off…
Damn it! Bro, did you really have to be so unreliable at a critical moment like this? I'm over here living a life worse than death, and you're in bed with your wife, lost in blissful oblivion. Is this world even going to give me a chance to live?
After what felt like an eternity of torment, the office door opened again, and Maxwell Peary walked in.
"Boss, your sister-in-law…"
She's not mad, is she?
Alan Morgan swallowed, instinctively retreating a few steps from Maxwell Peary.
Maxwell Peary raised his head, his eyes filled with a chilling hostility.
"I'm planning to use your annual bonus this year to cheer up your sister-in-law."
Alan Morgan looked like he wanted to cry but couldn't. "Boss!"
You can mess with anything else, just not my annual bonus! That's my marriage fund!
