Chapter 191

Debra put down her phone. Carole sat in the office, waiting for Debra to arrive. Upon seeing Debra, Carole's expression was unfriendly.

“Michael instructed me to have you assist with his shoot as a general assistant. There’s nothing else for you to do at the moment,” Carole said in a displeased tone, clearly suspecting Debra of some behind-the-scenes maneuvering.

“Okay, I understand.”

Debra was about to leave when Carole added, “Some interns don’t focus on learning. They just set their sights on men. Young people these days really make the workplace chaotic!”

Debra ignored her, unwilling to waste time on such a person.

“Did you hear? Michael specifically asked for this intern to be his assistant. I wonder what kind of relationship those two have.”

“What relationship could they have? She’s simply relying on her looks to flirt.”

“I even saw her sneakily meeting Michael in the hallway last time. She’s so pretty. I never would have thought…”

“Do you know that by having me help with your shoot, I’ve become the target of all the women in the company?” Debra said with a hint of resignation. Michael only smiled lightly. “Even if I didn’t have you assist me, they would still target you.”

Debra admitted her day hadn't been great before this. Being good-looking sometimes felt like a curse.

“I’ve never put earrings or a belt on a man…”

The theme was “wild style,” a stark contrast to Michael’s usual demeanor. It was like a cold, high-status god suddenly transformed into a sexually frustrated young man.

“It’s okay. I’ll teach you,” Michael said, leaning in with a low voice. His acting was impressive; for a moment, Debra truly felt his eyes reflected deep affection.

“Don’t practice your acting skills on me. I’m taken.”

Debra clumsily fastened the belt around Michael’s waist. Lowering his gaze, Michael asked, “You mean Juan?”

Debra paused.

“You haven’t planned to divorce yet?” Michael said.

“Who says I haven’t planned to divorce? It’s just not the right time.” The McKinney Group had indeed dealt Juan a significant blow, but it wasn’t enough. She needed something that would force Juan to give up—a threat to his position he couldn’t resist.

Michael fell silent for a moment before asking, “How can I help?”

Looking up with a smile, Debra replied, “I need you to become…and bring the most influence to my company. But with Frazier Ext…star, I won’t be able to help…current influence, even if I become a…”
