“You’re Carlos’ assistant. Isn’t this IT’s job?” Kasie asked in confusion.
“Con! It’s the New Year. No one is still working but me! What’s more, Carlos only trusts yours truly.” Emmett had a perfect reason to neglect his dates—he had to work for Carlos and had no tto chat. It made it hard to have a social life when he was on call 24/7.

Then I’LL put in a good word for you to Carlos. That way you’re in the clear, and he won’t pursue charges of slander. Deal?”
Kasie was enraged.
“I didn’t slander her! Yes, I posted the comment.
But what I said is the truth. Watch your tongue.”
“Okay, okay. My fault. Miss Kasie, the problem is not whether you slandered her. The problem is cyber- bullying. Megan is distraught, and
Carlos is very angry. He might havecafter you. You get it?” If
