It was because the person standing in front of Selena was her male manager.
“Mr. Rhodes, do you live here?” Selena asked in surprise
Jeffrey glanced at her and said, ‘Yes, | live here.”
Selena entered the elevator awkwardly. Subsequently, Jeffrey asked, ‘Do you live here as well?”
“M-My cousin lives here.” Selena was slightly nervous as she replied.
“What position does your cousin hold in the company?”
“S-She works at the level of the president's office.”
“Oh! That makes sense then.”
The elevator stopped at two levels below them, and two people entered the elevator. They greeted Jeffrey warmly. “Hi, Mr.
Rhodes.”
At that point, Selena was shocked to discover that everyone knew each other. Furthermore, she faintly remembered that one of
them was the director of the Finance Department.
“Why does everyone live here? This is such a coincidence,” Selena interrupted.

“This is the residential area provided by the company for the management-level staff, so that’s why we all live here!” the female
director mentioned.
Selena couldn’t contain her shock and quickly asked, “Are the houses here available for rent for the public?”
“This is a residential area developed by our company, so none of the properties has ever been rented out to the public. Those who
are eligible to stay here hold at least a managerial position in the company. Which department do you work in?” The female
director couldn't contain her curiosity and asked.
At that point, Ellen was mortified. She had no other option but to say, “I-l work under Mr. Rhodes.”
“Her cousin lives here,” Jeffrey quickly explained, just in case they misunderstood that something was going on between him and
his female subordinate
“Which department does your cousin work in?”
“She works at the president's office.”
Quite impressed, the female director instantly replied, “Your cousin’s very capable to get a job by the president's side at such a
young age.”
Selena exited the elevator, significantly dumbstruck. So, Ellen actually lied to me! This isn’t a place she rented at all! She was
granted this accommodation for free by the company! How on earth did Ellen get this perk? The location and amenities of this
residential area are way more luxurious and better than my area! Ugh, how could she lie to me?
Selena was angered beyond words and reached out for her phone to give Ellen a call.
Ellen was coincidentally free at the moment, and upon seeing the call from Selena, she answered it angrily, “Ellen speaking!”
“Ellen, how could you lie to me! The house you're staying at right now isn’t a rental property at all! It's a luxury apartment
provided by the company!”
Stunned, Ellen didn’t expect Selena to have found out, but Ellen admitted frankly, “Yes, it is provided by the company.”
“So why did you lie to me? I'm your cousin!
“Yeah. Are you still in my house?”
“Yes, of course!”
“Please gather your belonging right now and move out of my home. You're no longer welcto stay.”
“What did you just say?”
“Last night, you secretly used my phone and sent sflirty messages to President Presgrave. Don’t assI'm unaware of
things! Ellen furiously exposed Selena’s misdeed.
Selena was taken aback by that. She didn’t expect Ellen to find out, so she ended up saying, “It wasn’t intentional. Your phone was
by my side, so | randomly replied to a few messages. | was worried that you would telloff, so | deleted the messages.
“Are

aware that by sending those messages, you've created a huge misunderstanding forand President Presgrave?” Ellen was
enraged.
As soon as Selena heard that, she was secretly delighted. Did President Presgrave get mad at her and told her off?
“Why? Did you get told off by President Presgrave?”
“No, he didn’t. He misunderstood and wondered whether | was interested in him.”
“You could have told him that | was the one who sent those messages! In fact, Selena hoped that Ellen would do that. As such,
Selena’s presence would becknown to Jared.
“That's ridiculous! | had no choice but to admit that | was the one who sent those messages. Next time, please don’t touch my cell
phone without permission!” Ellen hung up the phone immediately after saying that
Originally, Selena had thought that last night's text message exchange was great, but right now, she was quite unhappy. At this
point, she regretted her actions for teasing President Presgrave provocatively on Ellen’s behalf.
After all, Ellen wasn't the type of person to tease a man on her own initiative at all. Besides, Ellen wouldn't. know how to Since
Ellen had admitted to being the message sender last night, President Presgrave would surely be more infatuated with her and her
suggestive messages.
At that moment, Selena was deeply regretful of her actions. She had unintentionally broken the barrier between Ellen and Jared
and had made way for an intimate relationship between them.
