Quinn was caught off guard.
She spun around instinctively, her gazending on Alexander as he approached.
He was impably dressed in a suit and shoes, a coat draped over his arm, his strides purposeful and determined.
Kyle, witnessing Alexander''s arrival, felt a wave of relief wash over him. It was as if a beacon of light had pierced through the darkness. He turned to Alexander, "Alexander...Quinn, she wishes to resign."
Alexander halted mid-step, turning his head to regard Quinn. His eyes held an air of indifference, as if he were merely looking at a stranger.
Quinn met his gaze, her mind shing back to the dogs and Orion''s words. An inexplicable chill coursed through her veins, her fingers subconsciously curling into tight fists.
"Where''s the resignation letter?" Alexander''s voice was deep, resonating in the silence.
"I''ll write it right away," Quinn gestured hastily.Alexander lowered his gaze, scrutinizing her. His eyes took in her disheveled hair and the faint smudges on her cheek, darkening slightly at the sight.
After a moment, he turned away, striding towards his office without a second nce at Quinn.
Quinn turned to Kyle and gestured, "Is my resignation sessful?"
Kyle patiently exined, "Not yet. You have to wait for Alexander to sign it, and then go to the personnel department to process your departure. Only then is it truly sessful."
Quinn nodded, signaling her understanding. Hesitant, she typed out her next question.
Quinn: [What if I don''t resign and suddenly stoping to work?]
She pondered her own situation, the possibility of one day forgetting toe to work, or worse, forgetting herself.
Kyle was initially inclined to say that she would simply lose her sry. But considering Quinn''s unique position and Alexander''s attitude, he offhandedly replied, "Then you''re in trouble. You have a contract with thepany. If you leave without authorization, you''ll have topensate thepany with a breach of contract fee of $500,000."
Quinn''s eyes widened in shock. Such a hefty penalty?
Kyle continued, his tone serious, "Your position is different. You are the chairman''s secretary. A position of great importance. It involvespany secrets and such. If you leave, thepany might suspect you of leaking confidential information and even prosecute you."

Kyle knew that Quinn was unlikely to understand, so he was essentially spouting nonsense. But the effect was profound.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.
Quinn was left staring nkly, fear evident in her eyes."So, if you want to leave your job, it''s best to follow the proper procedure."
Hearing Kyle''s words, Quinn nodded her head, her face pale. She agreed to resign through the proper channels.
Kyle sighed in relief.
Before Quinn''s arrival, Alexander had been notorious for his bad temper, often taking it out on his subordinates. It was only after Quinn started working that he had mellowed slightly. If Quinn were to resign abruptly, Kyle feared he would bear the brunt of Alexander''s wrath again.
Quinn stood in silence for a moment before nodding and leaving the room. She returned to her office and began searching for a resignation letter temte online.
Once she had written the letter, she made her way to Alexander''s office.
She knocked on the door, but there was no response. Quinn knew he was inside; she had seen him enter.

Upon entering, she saw Alexander on the phone, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. She hesitated, instinctively wanting to retreat. But Alexander turned around suddenly, catching her eye and gesturing for her to approach before returning to his call..
"Go ahead."
Quinn clutched her resignation letter tightly as she approached. Alexander nced at the letter in her hand, extending his slender hand towards her, a silent request for her to hand it over.
Quinn ced the resignation letter in his palm, her gaze nervously fixed on him.
Alexander opened the letter with one hand while continuing his phone conversation. He scanned the letter while speaking, multitasking with ease.
After a moment, he spoke into the phone, "Got it. Continue as nned."
He ended the call, unfolding the resignation letter once more and studying it carefully.
He then lifted his gaze, his eyes meeting Quinn''s.
