NovelEnglishRuby might not have been actively involved in the office's day-to-day affairs, but that certainly didn't mean she
was ignorant of them. Alexander, without acknowledging her, turned his attention to Quinn. "Quinn, would you
mind stepping outside for a moment?" he asked.
Quinn gave a nod of understanding and promptly exited the office. Once outside, she found herself casting a
lingering glance back at the closed door before reluctantly tearing her gaze away.
As she stood there, lost in thought, Kyle happened to pass by. He couldn't help but notice her melancholic
expression. "Quinn, is everything alright?" he asked, concern etched on his face. She looked up at him, her lips
pressed into a thin line, and gestured for him to follow her. "Can we talk somewhere else?"
Kyle, following her gaze towards the office, instinctively understood and accompanied her to an empty
conference room. Once they were alone, he asked, "So, Quinn, what's bothering you?"
Quinn hesitated for a moment, her eyes scanning the room to ensure they were indeed alone. Finally, she
gestured and said, "I just saw Ruby."
"Oh?" Kyle's voice was tinged with curiosity. "You wanted to discuss Ruby?"
She gave a slight nod in response."Well, | can't say | know much," Kyle admitted. "Ruby and Alexander have
been working together since before | joined the company. I've heard they were college friends, but | can't confirm
the truth of that." He tried to offer scomfort, "Quinn, don't worry about it. If there was anything more
between them, it would have happened long ago. Why would they wait until now?"
But Quinn's concerns lay elsewhere. She wanted to know if Kyle had ever noticed a resemblance between Ruby
and Getty. However, she found it difficult to voice her suspicions. She wondered, 'Wouldn't bringing it up be akin

rumors?"
After a moment of contemplation, Quinn decided to let it go. 'Maybe it's all just in my head,’ she thought.
"Thanks, Kyle. That's all | needed," she signed, her face a mask of gratitude.Kyle rose from his seat, "In that case,
I'll get back to work."Before he left, he offered a gentle reminder, "Quinn, don't overthink things. You're the most
important person to Alexander."
Quinn managed a weak smile in response. Kyle was indeed Alexander's trusted confidant, adept at saying the
right thing at the right time. It seemed unlikely that he would reveal anything even if he did know.
After Kyle's departure, Quinn remained seated in the conference room for a while longer before finally deciding
to leave. However, as she approached the door, it swung open, and the person entering was as surprised to see
her as she was to see him.
Quinn instinctively took a step back. Leon squinted his eyes at her, closed the door behind him without a word,
and asked with a smirk, "What brings Quinn, our esteemed secretary, here?" Quinn, her lips pressed tightly
together, wasn't sure how to interact with Leon. She attempted to leave, but found Leon leaning against the door
handle, effectively blocking her exit.
She looked at him, confusion written all over her face. She thought that workplace boundaries would deter him,
but she clearly underestimated Leon's audacity.
