When she returned to work at the office, everyone seemed to be looking at her differently.
The issue with the exhibition had created a huge commotion. Even the staff members of the company had become suspicious of this renowned designer who had appeared out of nowhere.
However, none of this had anything to do with Samantha.
She arrived at the CEO’s office on the top floor. She noticed that Linda was dressed
even more provocatively than usual.
“Did you have a good trip, Ms. Meadows?”
Linda looked coyly at her. She had on heavy makeup, and her pale skin peeked
through the jacket she was wearing. She did look very charming.
“If you have so much free time, Ms. Snider, why don’t you complete the work that
Mr. Ford assigns you properly?” Samantha answered with a humorless smile.
Then she shut the office door firmly.
Linda flashed an evil smile the moment the door closed.
In the office, Kendrick looked at Samantha.
She was dressed in a simple, professional suit. Her hair had been tied up, exposing
her white n*eck. The earrings she wore made her look clean–cut and sleek.
She looked several years younger, like a female student.
Kendrick smiled and tapped on the shiny table surface.
“There’s going to be a ball tonight.”
“I want to return to the design department,” Samantha spoke quickly, looking
unusually fragile.
The reason she looked fragile was because she hadn’t gotten much sleep last night.
She had been packing up her and Nathan’s luggage.

When she arrived, she had already prepared a house with two rooms. It was in the event that something like this happened.
“You can’t reject my alterations.”
Samantha paused, and unexpectedly did not refute Kendrick. Instead, she sat down and quietly began the day’s work. As he watched her, Jude felt that she seemed a
little different today.
“Kenny, did you get the invitation to the ball tonight?”
Linda entered.
Kendrick frowned as he looked at Linda, who had barged in. But out of respect for
his mentor, he nodded.
“That’s great. Then we can go together tonight.”
Linda cheered, smiling in a childlike manner.
“Of course, if my mentor gives you permission.”
“Kenny, don’t ruin the mood. As long as you’re willing to go, Dad will definitely allow
it!”
Linda pouted.
Her lively expressions put Kendrick in a slightly better mood. He disliked how Lindal behaved sometimes. Still, they had known each other for so many years that he
couldn’t really hate her.
Samantha gripped her pen viciously as she observed the obvious fondness in
Kendrick’s eyes.
If she really did want to stand beside Kendrick, she had to get rid of Linda first.
“How has Ares Corporation been lately?”
When Kendrick spoke, Samantha diverted all her attention on him.
Linda noticed Samantha’s expression and smiled.

“There’s no need to manage a crappy corporation like that, Kenny.”
Samantha huffed coldly inside at Linda’s remark.
Kendrick would never have attained his current accomplishments if he hadn’t relied on Duncan Group’s business back then.
Yet, the foundation of Duncan Group, which had been established over years, had been ruined overnight. It was all because of her impulsive romance. It had become fodder for Kendrick’s arrogance.
“Ares Corporation is very important. If you don’t do well, I could assign it over to someone else at any time.”
Kendrick sighed expressionlessly.
“Okay, okay, Kenny. I’ll manage it properly.”
Linda had no choice but to ask for forgiveness in a low voice.
Samantha refused to keep listening. She solely wanted to ruin Ford Corporation as soon as possible, and take back Duncan Group completely. It would shine again with its former glory.
Linda noticed Samantha’s darkened eyes.
She said scornfully, “What a pity. Even though Duncan Group was so big in the past, it’s nothing now. Yet, the orphan student that Mr. Duncan Senior sponsored is very successful. Perhaps Ms. Meadows should also work in Ares Corporation for a while?”
Samantha did not answer.
“Linda, I asked you to manage Ares Corporation. Still, it doesn’t mean that you can abuse your authority.”
Kendrick looked stern and rebuked her. The hate in Samantha’s heart intensified as she listened to Linda whine at Kendrick.
The ball that night was very boring. It was merely an excuse to expand their social circles while claiming that it was for some heiress‘ birthday. Even though Samantha was dressed in an extravagant gown, she still felt unenthusiastic.

Kendrick grabbed her hand and smiled slightly.
“What is it? Are you bored?”
“Yes.”
Samantha pulled her hand away and lowered her eyes. He couldn’t tell what she was
thinking.
“Do you know how to dance?”
Kendrick’s hand encircled Samantha’s waist.
“No.”
Samantha shook her head.
She barely had enough time to study design.
She had learned to dance before but had forgotten all of it after she married
Kendrick.
Kendrick wasn’t annoyed. He simply took Samantha’s hand and led her onto the
dance floor.
Samantha’s perfume wasn’t terrible, and it enveloped them both. Kendrick watched
her eyelashes tremble whenever she blinked.
For the first time, Kendrick had a tentative feeling. He had always attended these
things with a partner who could dance. This time, he wanted to experience how it
felt to teach someone how to dance.
“I don’t know how to dance.”
Samantha looked up slightly. looking rather nervous.
