“One million dollars?”
Alex did not even bother to look at the cheque on the turntable. He instantly turned it back to him and said, “How about this? I’ll give you a million dollars, please don’t show up in front Phoebe in the future, okay? Take a detour whenever you see her!”
Joel’s expression froze immediately.
Meanwhile, his local female secretary looked at him despitefully and said, “Is it too little? Mr. Bodyguard, one million dollars is not little at all, especially for an unpopular bodyguard like you. You probably won’t even get one million dollars after three years of work.”
After taking a glance at her, Alex smiled lightly and said, “Who are you?”
The secretary said, “I’m Young Master Quarters’s secretary, Sasha! I advise you to not be greedy. Young Master Quarters’s money is not easily extorted.”
Alex said, “Are you married yet?”
Sasha was stunned. “What do you mean? What does that have to do with you?”
Alex asked again, “Do you have a boyfriend then?”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, wondering his intention for asking that question.
Richard next to her smiled and said, “Mr. Bodyguard, could it be that you’re interested in Miss Sasha? Indeed, Miss Sasha is not married and doesn’t have a boyfriend either. But as Young Master Quarters’s secretary, her yearly salary is at least ten million dollars. Even ten copies of you can’t be compared with her. Even if you want to live off Miss Sasha, you won’t have the chance to do so in this lifetime.”
Alex smiled and turned to look at Cheryl. “Cheryl, you’ve been studying with Guilherma for quite a while, how many percent of the Third Eye has been learned? Take a look at Miss Sasha, can you tell me any problems about her?”
“Are you testing me?”
Cheryl smiled politely and looked toward Sasha. Soon, she smiled and said, “She’s pregnant.”
“And?”
“It’s an ectopic pregnancy!”
“Not bad. It’s pretty good to have such an achievement in such a short time.”
The action of the two people exchanging questions and answers while being oblivious of others had made the others stunned.
Phoebe finally reacted. “Cheryl, are you saying that Secretary Sasha is having an ectopic pregnancy? Ectopic pregnancy is very dangerous and hemorrhage might happen anytime. It would be life threatening if it happens! Mr. Quarters, you’d better immediately bring your secretary to the hospital and get a detailed examination. If it’s true, she should get operated as soon as possible. I know the director of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department in Premier Hospital. I’ll write you a recommendation letter, you two can go there right away. However, you two won’t be able to keep your child.”
Joel was dumbfounded. “No, what do you mean our child? Phoebe, Sasha is my secretary, she’s not my woman. What does her pregnancy have to do with me?”
Phoebe said, “Since you said it isn’t yours, then it isn’t Why do you have to be so anxious?”
Judy said, “Cousin, you must have mistaken Second Young Master Quarters. How could Second Young Master Quarters do this kind of thing? It’s normal for his secretary to have a boyfriend outside. Moreover, how could you guys just tell that she’s pregnant or having an ectopic pregnancy? You guys didn’t even check it, yet you could tell it at a glance? Are you people joking or what? Who would believe you?”
Phoebe said, “You’ll know after the examination.”
Alex smiled. “There’s no need for trouble. Miss Sasha should know very well whose child is inside her belly. We’ll know it after asking her! Allow me to ask, Miss Sasha, do you know that you’re pregnant? Whose child is inside your belly?”
Joel and the others scoffed. ‘Sasha would never tell you!’
However, in the next second, Sasha unexpectedly said, “I knew about it. I went for a checkup a few days ago and I’m really pregnant, but I didn’t know that it’s an ectopic pregnancy. The child belongs to my master, Joel Quarters.”
“Bullsh*t!”
