Chapter 1846

"Where are you all going? Is it back to the apartment? I wanna go there too!" "What for? It's the holidays.
Why do you want to join us instead of going home?" Timothy, being the dense guy he was, retorted.

It made Zaylynn so angry that she wanted to cry. "It's none of your business! I wanna go back there with
you guys! I ordered a barbecue. Since the holidays are starting soon, I want all of us to gather one last
time before we split up."

"Sure. You can sit behind Timothy," Susan suggested.

And so the four of them headed back to the apartment.

Upon arriving at the apartment, Susan still prepared a few dishes because she was worried Ian wouldn't
enjoy barbecued food. She thought the food might be too heavy on the flavor department, so she
prepared a couple of dishes that she knew he liked.

Once everything was set up, everyone had a great time eating.

"So now that the holidays are right on our doorstep, what plans do you guys have in mind?" The liveliest
person in the group, Zaylynn, brought up the topic first.

Timothy was eating grilled fish when he heard that. He answered, "I'm going to get a part-time job, of
course. Not everyone is as rich as you, Zaylynn."

"You-"

"All right, Timothy. Why do you have to act like a child every time? Zaylynn's a girl. You have to treat her
better," Susan advised in order to prevent another fight between them from occurring.

Only then did Timothy stop.



Zaylynn asked, "Then where are you going to do your part-time job? If you don't mind, you can come and
work at our family's hotel. My dad said he's recruiting people."

"Really?" Timothy's eyes sparkled.

The hotel operated by the Neal family was a famous local hotel. Otherwise, the Neal family wouldn't have
been as influential as it was.

Susan thought the idea sounded good too, so she turned to Zaylynn. "That sounds great. Timothy was
going to work in an internet cafe for the summer. He probably needs to work at night, and the pay isn't
that great. If your hotel has a position for him, that'll be great."

"There is a position that suits him. He's good at computers, and our hotel security department needs
someone who can deal with their computer system. My dad was planning to hire someone at a high price
to deal with that." Zaylynn was quite happy that her seniors agreed to the idea.

If they went to her place, then Ian...

"Sure. It's decided, then. Timothy will go to your family’s hotel while I stick with my original plan."

"Where are you going?" Zaylynn asked.

Ian hadn't said anything so far, but his expression looked relaxed as he cut the steak on his plate.

"I'm going to Yeringham," Susan said before quickly glancing in Ian's direction.

Clank!

His response was straightforward.

He threw the knife in his hand on the table, his cold, handsome face covered in a layer of darkness.



Zaylynn and Timothy were both shocked.

As for Susan, a chill ran down her spine as her fingertips turned cold.

"Why?" Ian questioned.

"Huh?"

She fearfully gazed at Ian as he turned his line of sight toward her. His look was so scary that it was
preventing her from speaking properly. "1-1 have a senior there asking me t-to join a company that
focuses on charity. 1-1

told her I would give it a try. I'm sorry, Ian, for not telling you sooner. I'm not going to Hayes Corporation."

"Suit yourself!" That was all he could muster as disappointment filled his heart.

Then he stood up, entered his room, and shut the door tight.

For an entire minute, the dining room was dead silent. The remaining three's faces were deadly pale.

What's going on with him? Why is he so angry? So what if she doesn't want to go? Do interns not have
the freedom to choose? Zaylynn and Timothy were puzzled.

After everyone left, Susan brought the plates and cutleries to the sink to wash them. She was using so
much force that she snapped a plate in half.

In an instant, the sharp edges of the plate cut her, causing blood to spill out.

It's fine. I just need to endure this for now. She wiped her tears away and treated her cut before resuming
her dishwashing.

In the afternoon, she left the apartment and headed to Yeringham.



Before she left, she gave Sasha a call and mentioned that she wouldn't be working at Hayes
Corporation. Then she asked the older woman to send someone to

pick Ian up.

Sasha found it odd. "Why does Susan not want to intern at Hayes Corporation anymore? And why did
she decide to go to a place like Yeringham?"

"Probably because of her resentment," Sebastian said when he heard that as he read his book.
