The Unveiled Rose

Sasha said without a second thought, "Never."

Madeline asked, "Hmm?"

"When I confessed to him, he repeatedly told me he wasn't interested," Sasha said boldly. "Later, when I became friends with Annalise, he let me work here because of her too."

"Is that so?" Madeline sounded a bit disappointed. "I thought I'd get to witness a dramatic love story!"All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Sasha immediately looked around to make sure no one was listening, then said, "You can't ever mention this again. If Zane hears about it, he'll definitely fire me!" Madeline quickly covered her mouth. "I got it!"

...

After buying a drink, I twisted the cap off and handed it to Zane.

Zane gulped it down in several swigs. When the burning sensation in his mouth subsided, he realized something.

Madeline showed subtle signs of having a crush on him earlier, only to lower his guard. In reality, her goal all along was to set him up!

Zane took my hand and said, "Let's go back."

"Okay."

I continued to sketch in the office.

Zane sat at his desk in deep thought.

First of all, Madeline didn't have much contact with him. She had no grudge against him, so there was no reason for her to try to get back at him just for the sake of a prank. Plus, the method of revenge was so childish.

With these considerations in mind, Zane immediately guessed who had been instructing Madeline.

He called Sasha, asking her to bring Madeline to his office.

When Sasha heard Zane's words, her heart skipped a beat. She looked at Madeline beside her.

Madeline blinked her big eyes, looking pure and innocent. She didn't realize danger was already looming. She asked, "What's wrong?"

Sasha's expression turned serious. "Zane wants us to go see him."

"Then let's go," Madeline said directly.

Sasha pulled her aside and whispered, "Did you forget? We just plotted against him not long ago."

Madeline finally realized the problem. "Is he planning to use this chance to get back at us?"

"Maybe," Sasha said as she patted her shoulder. "We need to be mentally prepared. No matter what he says, we must not show any signs of abnormality, understand?" en

Madeline became serious. "Understood!"

...

The two of them walked nervously and hesitantly.

It took them some time, but they finally stood before Zane.

Zane placed a file aside and said slowly, "There's a new game project I want to assign to the two of you. I called can u here to ask if you

handle this responsibility?"

Zane's tone was all business, and there wasn't the slightest hint of anything unusual.

Sasha was stunned.

Madeline also looked at Sasha.

Zane asked, "Hmm?"

Sasha didn't hesitate and quickly responded, "We can!"

Zane calmly continued, "I've already spoken with the department head. You can go to the 20th floor to find him." "Okay!"

The two of them left the office excited.

Sasha lifted her chin and bragged to

Madeline, "I told you, with how

we've

n it, Zane wouldn't elf

possibly figure it out."

Madeline laughed sarcastically. "This isn't what you were saying earlier!"

Zane watched the two of them leave, and a smile of triumph appeared on his usually stoic face.

He was always one to hold a grudge. Why would anyone dare to mess with him?
