NovelOnline“Mom, is this Dad's decision? Why didn’t he discuss it withbeforehand?” “Didn’t you also act on your own?” Angela retorted.
This incident almost scared her out of her wits. Her daughter not only tampered with the system’s nlist but also lied to them
about taking care of her grandmother, only to secretly intern at the Vice President's Residence.
“Mom, I'm sorry. | shouldn't have done what | did, Shirley apologized.
“Alright, let's put this behind us. Luckily, Mr. Flintstone didn’t hold you responsible, or else you'd be in trouble.” Angela also
breathed a sight of relief, knowing her daughter had been too reckless. If Zacharias had pursued the matter, it wouldn't have been
easy for Shirley to avoid punishment.
Hearing that, Shirley felt her heart skip a beat and realized she had made a huge mistake. “Mom, you and Dad can rest assured. |
will do my best while interning here.” She dared not ask for more and hoped working hard during her internship could appease her
parents, “Also, watch your temper when you're with Mr. Flintstone. That is not your home.” Angela reminded her daughter.
“] understand.” “Don’t think that you can do anything you want because of your father and great-uncle’s status. You have to know
your place.” Shirley felt her heart tremble. Indeed, she had thrown several tantrums before Zacharias, and now that her mother
brought it up, it seemed like she didn’t know her place.
“Alright, Mom. | will work hard during this internship,” Shirley promised. After ending the call with her mother, Shirley changed into
her uniform and pulled the door open. When she returned downstairs, she sternly spoke to the man who was watching the TV on
the couch. “Mr. Flintstone, | haven't been very respectful before. From now on, | will listen to your orders and carry them out
without asking any questions.” In the meantime, Zacharias thought she was acting strange today, but he liked hearing those
words.

“1 will personally protect you round the clock.” Shirley carried out the order the man had previously given her.
Zacharias’ lips were about to give away his true emotions, but he managed to hold back his smile. “Very well. | look forward to
seeing how you'll perform tonight.” At that moment, Zacharias’ phone started to ring. When he glanced at it, he informed her, “It's
your father.” Shirley put her hand behind her back, saying nothing. Meanwhile, Zacharias warmly answered the call. “Hey, Mr.
Lloyd.” “Mr. Flintstone, something urgent cup, and | must return to the military base. I'll treat you to a meal next time.” “Sure.
Let's make an appointment for another day,” Zacharias replied. Richard didn’t mention his daughter and ended the call, so
Zacharias turned to Shirley and told her, “Your dad has something urgent to tend to and needs to return to the military base.”
Shirley thought, Dad might not have something urgent to do. He just wants to avoid this meal! He doesn’t like mingling with
people.
After looking at the time, Zacharias noticed it was about tfor lunch, so he got up. “Accompanyfor lunch.” Shirley frowned.
“It's inappropriate forto have a meal with you.” Zacharias was not used to her suddenly asserting her position so formally.
“This is an order, so you must comply,” Zacharias ordered with narrowed eyes.
In the end, Shirley could only reply, “Yes.” Therefore, Roy arranged a convoy for Zacharias to head out while Shirley got into the
scar as him.
Meanwhile, Imogen, who had been standing by the dormitory, just happened to see the leaving convoy and couldn't help but feel
curious. When would she be able to beca member of the convoy and stay beside Zacharias, as well as protect him and make
her own achievements?
Imogen’s plans for her future included the option of using marriage as a tool to elevate her life to another level. Therefore, her
marriage was her stepping stone. When she saw Zacharias for the first time, a thought emerged in her mind. After all, nothing was
impossible in this world.
At the restaurant, Shirley sat upright before Zacharias. She gazed at the man, who was ordering his food.
Once Zacharias was done ordering, he got up and cbehind Shirley. Shirley immediately got up, but the man suddenly bent
over and leaned closer to her the next moment.
