Being stared at Like this, I felt uneasy. I wasn’t sure whether Caleb believed me or not. He had appeared so suddenly that I couldn’t think of a better excuse.
“Okay, then.” Caleb didn’t say anything more. He just walked past me and handed the receptionist a shiny credit card.
“I’LL pay for Debra’s stay here.” Then he seemed to think of something and added, “Check her into the room next to mine.”
“No!” Panicked, I stopped the receptionist in a hurry.
Who the hell would want to Live next to him and his girlfriend? The last thing I wanted to see was Caleb and Janiya flirting with each other every day.
“Don’t bother. I’m not staying here,” I said to the receptionist firmly.

“Well…” The receptionist’s eyes darted between me and Caleb. She Looked a Little embarrassed.
I repeated myself coldly. “I’m not staying in this hotel. Please don’t charge his card and just check out for me. Thank you.”
“I think you should reconsider.” Caleb came over. Judging from his expression, I could tell that he was not happy. “If you leave this hotel, I’ll tell Adam that your information is fake,” he warned me in a low voice that only I could hear.
“You- How could there be anyone so shameless in this world? Looking at Caleb’s annoying smiling face, I nearly went mad.
Debra’s POV:
I still didn’t want to compromise, so I ignored Caleb and said to the receptionist, “Please just check out for me, thank you. I’m in a rush.” Caleb narrowed his eyes at me. “I hope you won’t regret it.”
Seeing that I still refused to change my mind even after threatening me, he took out his phone and dialed a number. “Good morning, Adam. There’s something I need to tell you. It’s about your new secretary.” Caleb looked at me defiantly as he spoke. “I think there’s something that you must know about her—”
“Fine, I’ll stay in this hotel!” I cut Caleb off hurriedly.
Smiling at me smugly, Caleb changed his tune and said to Adam, “I called to tell you that your new secretary is perfect. She has a good attitude, and she’s an excellent driver. Adam, you hired the right person for the job.”
I sighed in relief.
Caleb knew well how to threaten people.
“Remember to move in next door by today.” Caleb winked at me gleefully. It seemed that making things difficult for me was his new hobby.
“Of course.” Swallowing my anger, I forced a polite smile at him. “Anyway, I have to go to work now. I’LL move my things tonight.”
A mischievous light flashed through Caleb’s eye. “Actually, Adam just said that he wanted you to show me around Roz Town.” Then he tossed the car keys at me.
“What ?”
Unexpectedly, Adam sent me on another irrelevant mission. I felt helpless.
