His Eagle Eyes on Me

Chapter 2418

She raised her arm and said, "yeah! | was injured on my wrist before, so the doctor asksto wear this at all times."

"Oh! So that means you can't do any heavy-lifting as well, right?"

Juliet smiled and was about to answer, when another secretary interrupted her. "Juliet doesn't need to do any heavy-lifting at her

position! If you really need to, just ask us for help, Juliet!"

Juliet had not expected for her colleagues to be so friendly and did not quite know how to respond. "President Tate has askedto

work with the admin department on matters regarding the annual dinner for now, so | don't think there's any heavy-lifting involved.

Thank you, everyone. You are all so nice. When | get my salary, | will buy coffee for everyone."

"Sure! I'm on a diet, but | will take whatever you buy!"

"You are so pretty, Juliet. Do you have a boyfriend? | heard that you are from Ylore. Are you planning to stay here or will you go

hafter working here for a while?"

Juliet went to sit down at an empty work station and placed her laptop onto the desk, before answering, "I don't have a boyfriend,

and | don't intend on dating anyone anytsoon. I've just graduated. I'm still young, so | want to focus on my career for now."

"Yeah, that's right. Your career is far more reliable than a relationship. Once you are successful, you can choose any man you want!

You are young and pretty, so it's easy for you to find a man now, but he might grow tired of you when you grow older. Money is our

one true friend!" Another woman commented.

"President Tate is the best example of this. She's a successful woman even without Elliot Foster," one of the secretaries said. "She's

a genius in the medical field and that alone brings countless men to her feet! | heard that she started dating Elliot before she

studied medicine. Their relationship didn't last long because President Tate had no leverage at the time. Elliot didn't go after her

again until she cback the medical genius she is now."

Almost every person in the Tate Industries knew about this, but it was the first tJuliet heard of it, so her interest was piqued.

"Why didn't President Tate go back to being a doctor, then?"

"It's too tiring, especially if she needs to operate on someone! She has her family and children now, so she's definitely going to

focus on them."

"That's true. Sometimes, it's hard to balance career and family life."

"Your family is in Ylore, right? If you becsuccessful here, it might be difficult for you to go home, since Ylore isn't as developed

as Aryadelle."

"I will focus on the tasks in hand for now and leave the future to run its course. I'm afraid that | might not be able to do anything

right if | think too much." Juliet could sense that the others viewed her as a threat and a competition. Though they all appeared

enthusiastic and welcoming, they seemed to be hinting that she should return to Ylore.

Meanwhile, at a kindergarten in a neighboring city.

There was an outdoor activity for the children to visit a rural village and experience what it was like to dig for potatoes.

The activity included a few classes at the stand the children in Irene's class had grown used to her; despite the

horrendous scar on her face, Irene never talked to anyone and remained quiet, so she did not affect anyone as long as they do not

look at her.

However, it was the first tthat the children from other classes saw her, so a few of them gaped, causing the others to mirror

the smotion.

The teachers immediately went to console the children.

Knowing that she had frightened the others, Irene immediately went to hide behind the teacher, worried that they might prevent

her from digging for potatoes.

The teacher had told them that they could take the potatoes they dug home.
