“Put your hand here. Hold on firmly, and then just hit the ball.”
“Oh.”
Samantha cast aside Kendrick’s hand impatiently. She held the golf club as she focused on measuring the distance that she would have to hit.
Chandler could distinctly sense that there was something strange about Samantha’s identity. He thought that perhaps this secretary was Kendrick’s type.
Chandler was mid–thought when Kendrick looked over. His gentle smile startled Chandler. He immediately gestured for the women to get off the golf course.
He decided to target Samantha.
Samantha dropped the golf club after she sent the golf ball flying.
Kendrick snorted with laughter, but Samantha only felt her face heating up.
“I just used too much strength.”
Samantha touched her face, then walked over to retrieve the golf club that she had
flung out.
“Let me.”
Kendrick took Samantha’s golf club.
Samantha withdrew.
Playing golf early in the morning as a form of workout had put everyone in a good. mood. They decided to have lunch on the grass.
Samantha was bored as she listened to Chandler explain the culture of those who lived nearby. However, Kendrick was intrigued by one of the topics.
“What other stories are there about hazelnut pastries?”
Samantha’s thoughts were interrupted by Kendrick’s question. She looked at
Chandler.

“You might not know this, Mr. Ford. These hazelnut pastries have made a match for so many. Legend says that if a man and a woman eat a hazelnut pastry together, they’ll become a couple,” Chandler spoke enthusiastically after picking up on Kendrick’s interest.
Samantha raised her eyebrows.
Samantha turned away at the thought of that night in the cold wind. She felt rather embarrassed. She wanted to avoid meeting Kendrick’s gaze.
Kendrick’s l*p curled as he watched Samantha from behind.
He thought that she could be pretty coy sometimes.
Chandler followed both their eye lines. He knew that he had bet on the right horse. He began flattering Samantha.
“Ms. Meadows, would you like to have a spa experience? We have quite a good facility here.”
“Thank you for your kindness, but I don’t think I need one.”
Samantha smiled.
“Then is there anything that you especially like eating? I’ll ask the kitchen to make
some for you.”
Chandler persisted.
Samantha could only keep shaking her head. She wondered what had gotten into
Chandler.
Samantha was thinking of ways to continue the conversation when a shrill voice.
drifted over from behind her.
“Ms. Meadows!”
Upon hearing the unfamiliar voices, a reporter holding a microphone, as well as
several others carrying cameras subsequently followed.
Samantha stood up instinctively. Kendrick’s expression grew stern. He grabbed
Samantha’s hand and looked coldly at Chandler.

“Block them
Chandler locked confused Me instructed the waiter to help stop them while he
walked behind Kendricks
Didn’t you say that the company would take care of it?”
Samantha lowered her voice.
Kendrick had already closed the room door, while Jude stood up from the sofa and
started making calls.
“Someone’s been embellishing the story.”
Kendrick took the phone from Jade’s band.
As he had said, the report displayed on the phone had already deviated from the
truth. It said that Sophia had caused an injury from participating in the architectural
design. Because of Sophia’s international fame, it bad attracted a lot of media
attention. Her previous work was also being brought out and was being commented
on by people.
Samantha looked grim. After all, it was very bad to bave people acize that
your work was trash
However, if these rumors could hurt Kendnck’s company she would feel that 11 was
worth it.
“We can only explain.”
Jude concluded after finishing his calls.
“Discuss this with Chandler. We will make the clasification beze
“Okay.”
Jude left the room. Samantha was about to follow but she was stopped by Kendrick.
“Stay here.”
Kendrick didn’t even look up.

Samantha had no choice but to sit down. All she needed to do was to sl*p some information out in front of the camera, but she no longer had that chance. They couldn’t do anything, and time seemed to pass by very slowly. However, Linda called Kendrick’s phone at the first chance.
Kendrick remained unmoving. His intention was clear.
Samantha had no choice but to take the phone and pick up the call.
“It’s Sophia.”
Linda had prepared herself to give an entire spiel, but she was tripped up by this. She only spoke after a long pause.
“Why is it you? Let Kenny pick up!”
Samantha put the phone on speaker and tossed it over to Kendrick.
“What’s the matter?”
Kendrick looked to see who the caller was.
a
“Kenny! Our opponent is going to hold their series exhibition a few days early.”
If they held it earlier, it would mean that they would get a head start.
Samantha smiled inwardly. It was a good thing that Kendrick had made so many
enemies.
“Stick to the original plan.”
Kendrick hung up at once. For the first time, his gaze fell on Samantha.
“We may need some twists for the exhibition this time.”
Samantha was surprised. There wasn’t much time left for the SL series..
There wasn’t time to prepare any eye–openers.
“I can’t promise that I’ll complete the mission.”
Samantha’s eyes were filled with excitement.

This was a challenge. If she could complete the SL series perfectly, then she could
start squeezing Kendrick’s business dry.
