30. Fear of Competition
“Just do it yourself. I’d rather cook in the kitchen. Excuse me.” Karal stomped her feet, leaving the
room.
Frank was stunned to see her. With a stupid look, he turned to the lotion bottle that had just hit his hard
muscle.
“Why is she angry? That’s the normal stage that must be done after bathing.”
Meanwhile, Kara kept mumbling. Even when she arrived in the
kitchen, she couldn’t stop nagging. “He accused Ben of being a flirt, but he himself was a pervert. Why
is he so disgusting?”
Since that night, Kara had always looked at Frank with suspicion. However, the man was not bothered
at all. He still continued to give orders, thinking that he enjoyed seeing her in trouble. In reality, his
heart couldn’t stand not seeing Kara for even a minute.
Thursday afternoon, Kara was busy compiling a report. Frank intended to tell her to get the files in the
shelf. However, as about to press the phone button, he flinched. His eyes widened because of Ben’s
presence near the secretary’s desk.
“Mr. Wilson?” Kara spontaneously stood up. “Sorry, I didn’t know your had anything scheduled with Mr.
Harper today.”
“Oh no. Relax. I don’t come here to meet him, but you.” Ben smiled
sweetly.
Before Kara could reply, Frank came out of the room and greeted Ben with a cold aura. “Isn’t our
meeting scheduled for tomorrow? What brings you here? You don’t mean to bring me a bribe, do you?”
Kara traced Frank’s line of sight. It turned out that Ben was carrying a

The shape was beautiful and elegant. Louis and Emily would
definitely think it was cool.
“Sorry to disappoint you, Frank. But, my visit this time is not for business.” Ben turned to Kara and
smiled sweetly again.
“There is something I must give Miss Martin.” Ben handed the box to
Kara.
The girl’s eyes widened. “For me?”
‘Is this for Louis and Emily?’ she asked silently with her eyebrows.
Ben blinked as if in agreement. “I know you really like chocolate. So, I hope you don’t mind receiving
this simple gift.”
Kara blinked in disbelief. She glanced at Frank briefly. The man looked unhappy. Then, she looked
back at Ben. His pride could be hurt if she rejected the gift.
“Thank you, Mr. Wilson.”
Ben nodded while curling up the corners of his lips. “I’m glad you’re happy, Miss Martin. Your cheerful
face is the dew to my barren heart.”
Frank snorted. He shoved his hands into his pockets and looked away. However, Ben didn’t care about
his friend’s annoyance.
“Also, if you don’t mind, I’d like to invite you to dinner next Saturday.”
Frank flinched. He didn’t expect Ben to play his trick on Kara so quickly.
“Haven’t you only met twice? Have you dared to ask Kara out?” Frank asked suspiciously.
“Yes, if Miss Martin doesn’t mind. Didn’t I tell you that Miss Martin stole my heart from the first sight?”
Ben placed his hands in front of his chest and tilted his head. Kara’s smile turned horrified when she
saw him.
Even though she always argued with Frank, this time, she agreed. It was too soon for Ben to ask her
out. Moreover, the man knew her status as a single mother.
“Sorry, Mister Wilson. I can’t. My schedule is very tight.”
“Is that so? Too bad. Well then, let’s postpone it until you have some free time. You’re a man of your
word, aren’t you?”
Kara’s vision suddenly brightened. She just remembered that she had promised dinner to Ben when he
helped Louis at the Prince and Princess Resto.
“Of course.” Kara quickly returned her expression to sweetness. Frank’s warning couldn’t poison her
mind any longer. “I’ll let you know if I’m free.”
“It must be hard having a boss as cruel as Mr. Harper, hmm? He won’t even let you date.” Ben glanced
at Frank with a teasing look before looking back at Kara gently.
“Miss Martin, if one day you can’t stand Frank anymore, please don’t hesitate to contact me. I will
immediately prepare a special place for
you.”
“You openly want to recruit my secretary to your company?” Frank asked sarcastically.
Ben chuckled. “Good employees are like a valuable asset for a company. They are deservedly
appreciated. If you’re afraid I’ll take Miss Martin away from you, you should pay more attention to her,
Frank.”
“Kara, come into my room now!”
Kara was surprised. The CEO’s response was truly unexpected. “Why? Mr. Wilson is still here.
Wouldn’t it be rude if I left him?”
“Now!”
Kara pressed her lips together. After a faint sigh, she turned to Ben with a look of resignation. “Sorry,
Mr. Wilson.”
“It doesn’t matter. I am familiar with Frank’s behavior. You still have my business card, right? I’m waiting
for your call.”
“Kara!”
Kara raised an eyebrow at Frank. “Okay, Sir. No need to shout like that.
After nodding slightly to Ben, Kara obeyed the order.
“I warned you yesterday. Do you think I’m playing around?” Frank asked in a low, emphasized tone.
“I know you are serious. Because of that, I become more enthusiastic about getting her. Miss Martin
must be very special.”

“Until tomorrow.” He waved as he walked towards the elevator. His NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
feeling was light. He had never seen Frank’s expression so gloomy. He might be able to get his first
victory through Kara.
Meanwhile, Frank went straight into his room and stood in front of Kara. The girl was still sitting on the
sofa. She was wondering what
the men talked about.
“Why did you accept his invitation?” Frank asked angrily.
“You think I’m lying? Ben is a flirtatious guy. Or perhaps, you are also that type? Is that why you don’t
mind dating him?”.
Kara snorted and got up from the sofa.
“Why are you so fussy, Sir? It’s my life. Only I have the right to arrange

confiscating my freedom still not enough to satisfy you?”
