Chapter 1857
Kenneth and the others were still stealing subtle glances at her.
“Kenneth, are you sure it wasn’t that mysterious guy who got President Michael fired?” one of
them voiced his suspicion.
Kenneth answered ruminatively, “I don’t think so. She wouldn’t be working here for us in the first place if she knew
somebody capable of pulling that off.”
“That’s true. I wonder what happened at Swift Tech Corporation.”
“I have to give it to her. She’s smarter than I thought. At least, she knows to resign without having to be asked to.”
Kenneth remarked dryly, “What do you know? She does have some brains in her after all.”
Caprice quickly packed her belongings.

After she was done, she swiped a glance at Jonathan.
He looked like he was barely paying attention to Caprice as his eyes were transfixed on the computer display. His
whole demeanor was very stuck-up as if he considered himself too good to acknowledge her at all.
Caprice was going to say goodbye to him but decided against it when she noticed this. She picked up her backpack
and prepared to walk out.
“Caprice.” Moses suddenly stopped her.
She turned back to face him.
He walked up to her and offered kindly, “Let me see you off.”
Caprice smiled politely. “Okay.”
They left the office and stepped into the elevator.
Moses addressed her formally, “Caprice, even though you are no longer working for me, we can still keep in touch
going forward. If you need help with your studies or anything else, you know who to call.”
“I will. Thank you, Moses.”
Moses smiled faintly. “You’re welcome.”
Ding!
The elevator stopped on the first floor, and they stepped out
Just as they were about to walk out of the building, the phone in Moses’ pocket suddenly rang. He pulled the phone
out of his pocket and immediately frowned when he read the caller ID. He looked
troubled and hesitant to answer the call.
His reaction did not escape Caprice. She promptly turned to him and excused herself, “Moses, thanks for sending
me off. The school is just nearby, so I can cycle there myself. I’m sure you have more work to do.”

something nice.”
“Okay.” Caprice accepted the invitation without a second thought.
Moses strode back into the building and answered the call.
Caprice walked along the side of the road, clinging the backpack tightly to her body. It was only a short walk to the
bicycle stop.
She was just about to cross the road to get to the bicycle stop at the opposite end of the road when she noticed a
familiar car parked beside the road.
She read the license plate, and sure enough, it was Liam’s car. She cautiously approached the car and tried to spy
inside to see if there was anybody inside.
No luck. The windows were tinted and she could barely get a glimpse of its interior.
Just as she was about to gently tap against the window, it suddenly lowered by itself.
Liam’s stout appearance was immediately revealed. His depthless dark eyes reflected the brightness of the sun. He
spoke calmly, “Get in from the other side.”
Caprice was delighted to see him. She walked around to the other side of the car and promptly got in.
