Kate clutched my hand tightly, "Alec, do we really have to talk to each other like this? I've been accommodating you at home all these years, you know that."
Looking into her stubborn eyes, I said calmly, "Fine. Then can you reassign Kieran?"
Hearing this, Kate's face immediately fell and her voice rose sharply, "I'm a person, not your pet. Do I need to report everything I do to you for your satisfaction?"
In my memory, she had always spoken to me gently. This was the first time I'd seen her like this.
I closed my eyes, no longer wanting to argue and said, "Fine. From now on, you can do whatever you want. I won't interfere."
"I've told you before, I can't tolerate betrayal. If you no longer love me, let's part ways amicably. Just give me a heads-up when that time comes." After saying this, I pulled my hand free and prepared to return to the wedding.
Hearing the seriousness in my tone, Kate grew flustered. She chased after me, trying to grab my hand, "I run a company, not an all-female brigade. You can't expect me to replace all male employees with women, right?"
I stopped and looked at her, "At the very least, your assistant can be a woman, can't she?"
