Chapter 13

As Magnus finished speaking, Kristin’s delicate body trembled.

“You, what did you say…”

Unknowingly, her speech had become somewhat unclear.

At that moment, Magnus seemed possessed by a domineering man. He confidently walked up to Kristin, lifted her chin with his hand, and said condescendingly, “I want to take responsibility for you!”

Kristin did not know why, but she could clearly feel her breathing becoming rapid.

She was about to speak.

Smooch!

Magnus suddenly leaned down and kissed her.

Kristin widened her eyes and looked at the man in front of her..

In an instant, her mind went completely blank!

After a few moments, she exclaimed, “What are you doing?”

Kristin hastily took a few steps back and glared at Magnus intently. “I’m warning you, I’m not like any other woman!”

Although she slept with Magnus, if it had not been for the influence of alcohol and her unwillingness to marry Shawn, she would never have lost her senses that night!

  • Magnus looked at her quietly, smiling without saying a word.

Upon seeing this scene, Kristin became even more furious.

She thought Magnus was mocking her!

“Whether you believe me or not, or you think that I’m pretending to be innocent, in any case… I’ll quit, and whoever wants to be the CEO can be!”

After saying it all in one breath, Kristin felt incredibly relieved.

It seemed as if all the resentment that had been pent up in her heart for the past few days had been completely vented out.

“Are you done talking?” Magnus was a bit confused.

“Yes, I’m done!” Kristin said, pretending to be calm.

Magnus scratched his head and said, “To be honest with you, the purpose of my visit today is just to re–establish our engagement.”

Kristin asked with a surprised look on her face, “What did you say?”

“I said, our engagement cannot be annulled!” Magnus reiterated.

Kristin sneered and said discontentedly, “You were the one who wanted to break off the engagement, and now you want to restore it. What do you take me for?”

“…” Magnus was a bit embarrassed.

However, as a man, how could he be intimidated by Kristin’s aura?

“Kristin, I just wanted to take responsibility for you.”

Magnus solemnly declared, “You’re mine, and I’m the only man for you in this lifetime!”

“You…” Kristin gritted her teeth in anger. However, her heart was racing as if it had been set free, pounding wildly.

At that moment, she suddenly felt that the man in front of her was incredibly domineering!

Magnus chuckled softly and then invited her. “How about having dinner together tonight and watching a movie later on?”

Kristin’s eyes narrowed. “What are you doing? Pursuing me?

“Will you give me this opportunity then?” Magnus asked with a grin.

“…”

Kristin pondered for a moment and then scoffed, “Go ahead and try. I’m just afraid you won’t be able to win over me!”

“Hah, there isn’t a woman in the world I couldn’t pursue.”

For sure, Magnus would not say this out.

He suddenly changed the topic and said, “I’ve been quite free lately. Is there any suitable position in your company?”

“What are you up to this time?” Kristin asked, raising an eyebrow.

I just wanted to be closer to you,” Magnus said with a honey–sweet smile.

Upon hearing this, Kristin could not help but blush slightly and joked, “The position of chief in the security department had been vacant for a while. Are you interested?”

Magnus smiled contentedly and said, This job is not bad. There’s much freedom and easygoing.”

Kristin was somewhat taken aback.

She just made a casual remark, but this guy actually took it seriously!

However, when she thought about this guy becoming a security guard, she suddenly wanted to laugh.

Hence, under Kristin’s arrangement, Alexa completed the onboarding process for Magnus and personally escorted him to the security department to start his new position.

After all, Hovalt Group was a big company, and the security guard also represented one aspect of the company’s image.

The dozen or so security guards looked energetic and awe–inspiring.

“This is your new chief.” Alexa introduced Magnus.

“Nice to see you, chief!”

A dozen people spoke in unison, their voices strong and resounding.

“Terry, discuss the details with Mr. Kramer carefully,” Alexa instructed.

“Got it.”

The most robust man among them nodded in agreement.

“Mr. Kramer, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now,” Alexa said politely.

Magnus waved his hand. “Go ahead.”

After Alexa left. Several security guards gathered around Magnus, some offering him cigarettes, others lighting them for him.

“Mr. Kramer, are you free this evening? We would like to invite you for a casual dinner.

“After dinner, we can go for karaoke and sauna.”

“You guys are being too kind,” Magnus chuckled.

Humph!” At that moment, Terry who was standing nearby, let out a heavy cold snort.

The expressions of the several security guards changed instantly.

The older one, Dustin Mosley, quickly spoke up. “Will Mr. Winfree join us as well?”

“Exactly. Mr. Winfree, please do us the honor by joining us!”

The others spoke up one after another.

Terry took a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He glanced sideways at Magnus, and said, “Hey there, come over here. I have something to tell you.”

The tone had an indescribable boldness.

Terry thought after the former chief had retired, his promotion was definitely a confirmed matter.

After all, his brother–in–law was the sales director!

He could not accept the fact that Magnus took the position away. Thus, he instantly made a decision to show his ruthlessness to the newly appointed

chief.

Magnus furrowed his brow.

He was the chief, but Terry, being just a deputy chief, dared to ask him to go over there,

He sneered immediately, “Terry, right? I order you to go on a patrol right now.”

“What did you say?” Terry’s face turned cold.

“I told you to go on a patrol, are you deaf?” Magnus sneered.

“Mr. Kramer, calm down!

“Mr. Winfree, please calm down as well…”

Seeing the confrontation between the chief and the deputy chief, the rest quickly came out to mediate the situation.

Dustin whispered in Magnus‘ ear, “Mr. Kramer, our company’s sales director is Mr. Winfree’s brother–in–law.

This statement was to remind him that Terry had connections, and it would be best not to offend him.

Upon hearing this, Magnus was full of disdain.

‘Is the sales director his brother–intaw?

Ha, the CEO is my fiancée, but did I show it off?‘

He gratefully patted Dustin’s shoulder. After all, it was a kind intention of Dustin.

“Terry, I’ll say it for one last time. You need to go on patrol immediately and work an extra two hours tonight.”

Magnus gave the order in a serious manner.

Terry sneered and said arrogantly, “I won’t go. What can you do to me?”

Magnus gave him a thumbs up. “You’re bold enough!”

“For sure I am,” he said with a smug smile.

Magnus took out his phone and called Kristin. “I don’t think the work ethics of the deputy chief of the security department are good. Dustin has a good background and would be much more suitable for the position…”

After he hung up the phone, Terry laughed loudly and said, “My work ethics are not good? What’s wrong with you? Are you trying to impeach me?”

Magnus stared at Terry as if he was watching a clown.

I hope you could still laugh later.”
