Sadie and Darian fell to the ground together, causing a stir around them.

Her arm was numb from the fall, and as Sadie regained her senses, she realized that the Rolls-Royce Phantom had already sped away.

In the blink of an eye, the security guards approached and apprehended Darian.

"Micah, you won't get away with this! Even if I died, my soul wouldn't let you go-" Darian exclaimed but was quickly silenced and taken away forcefully.

Sadie turned her head to Darian, feeling utterly desolate. Her father had once told her that the business world was like a battlefield.

The scene felt more like hell than a battlefield...

One misstep could plunge her into an irreversible abyss!

And the mysterious man in the Phantom car was the devil in control.

The sad thing was that the poor had to work for the devil in trade for bread.

Sadie had just started walking away from the VIC Group offices when she received a notification from her bank-30,000 dollars for kindergarten tuition, leaving only 664 dollars in her account!

Kindergartens nowadays were so expensive. The tuition fee and meals for three kids would cost 30,000 dollars a year.

She couldn't help but feel worried. 'With such little money, I won't even be able to support our lives. What should I do?'

Though not reluctant, Sadie finally decided to go back to the VIC Group.

She thought to herself, 'I can't let Samuel block my way. After all, he won't have gone too far in the office, right? Besides, he made a fair point. It's true that I'm no longer that little princess I used to be. The priority is to support my family and raise my babies. Wake up, Sadie! Welcome to the real world!"

Sadie was waiting for the elevator in the lobby when she saw a group of bodyguards escorting a man toward the VIP elevator not far away.

Wherever he went, all the staff lowered their heads and respectfully greeted him, "Mr. Clemens, good morning!"

From where she stood, she couldn't see his face, but she knew he must have been Micah Clemens from the VIC Group!

Yet, why did she replace that tall, slender figure somehow familiar?

She shook her head, laughing at herself secretly, 'Hey, Sadie! There are many tall and slender men out there! He can't be the bouncer back then! He's Micah Clemens, girl! He's not your guy!'

Andrew reported, "Mr. Clemens, the woman who saved Darian at the last moment is Sadie Roth. She's just a bystander... Oops, no. She just completed her employment procedures five minutes ago. She is now working as a secretary on the 13th floor."

Micah's defined face remained expressionless, his gaze as cold as frost. He didn't pause in signing the documents before him. Only once his task was completed did he respond with a simple hum.

In her probationary period, her monthly salary was 1,300 dollars, with benefits such as insurance and IRA. After becoming a full-time employee, she could get 1,500 dollars a month.

As Sadie completed her employment procedures, she was still calculating in her mind whether the money would be enough to cover her family's expenses. '1,300 dollars for the baby formula, and the living expenses...'

Just as she was fretting, some senior employees gathered around and greeted her, "Sadie, welcome to the administration department!"

"Thank you so much! I'm glad to be here!"

Sadie warmly shook hands with them. She knew exactly how important it was to get along with her co-workers. That was Principle No.1 in the workplace.

"We're gonna through a welcome party for the newcomers. You come?"

"Certainly. Beer's on me!" Though Sadie was short of money, she couldn't get away.

"That's our girl! Let's go after work then!" "Alright!"

***

When it was time to clock off, Sadie was left in the office alone, finishing up. All her co-workers were done with work, and they were waiting for her downstairs. Right after she was done, Sadie grabbed her bag and rushed to catch the elevator, but the doors closed right before she reached it.

At the same time, the VIP elevator doors on the other side opened. Without thinking, she rushed inside.

"This is Mr. Clemens' exclusive elevator! Please get out," the bodyguard scolded her.

"What?" Even before Sadie could react, Micah eyed the bodyguard to give way to her. The bodyguard understood at once and let Sadie in.

Sadie glanced back, then quickly turned her head, feeling flustered.

It was Micah, Micah the Devil!
