Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss
Chapter 1370 - Chapter 1370 Chapter 1342 Just Dont Expose It

Chapter 1370: Chapter 1342 Just Don’t Expose It Chapter 1370: Chapter 1342 Just Don’t Expose It “Sister, who are you looking for?”

A somewhat childish voice rang out from behind, and Kiara turned around to see a little girl standing behind her, holding an empty bucket that once contained dirty water.

Her facial features looked somewhat familiar.

There was no independent drainage system in this type of housing area; all the dirty water from homes had to be carried in buckets, then poured into the gutter. Seeing this little girl, Kiara was slightly taken aback, instinctively feeling fond of her.

Judging by the girl’s outfit, she must still be a middle school student. These days, kids were spoiled by their parents; where would you find such a sensible child willing to help with household chores?

Looking at her, Kiara was reminded of her own childhood. She, too, had been a sensible child. While other kids were enjoying the care of their parents, she already knew how to share some of the household burdens.

“Little sister, does Flora Jim live here?”

“What do you want with my sister?”

Kiara sighed; indeed, this girl did look a bit like Flora Jim–she must be her younger sister.

“Yayaka, who are you talking to–ah!” Flora Jim emerged from the courtyard, and upon seeing Kiara standing outside, she first looked shocked and then her face began to turn pale.

Why Kiara had come looking for her, she knew very well.

After seeing those two people yesterday, Flora Jim had been mentally prepared, but she didn’t expect Kiara to arrive so soon.

Flora Jim had gone to great lengths to keep her sister in the dark, not letting Emily know what she was doing, maintaining the secret for so long. If Arlong’s sister were to expose it…

Thinking of this, Flora Jim felt unsteady, her body beginning to wobble, heavily stricken.

Kiara glanced at Flora Jim; she could guess what was going through her mind.

If she were truly unfeeling, she would have destroyed Flora Jim’s most precious thing right in front of her, which was the little girl standing behind her.

But she didn’t, as Mrs. Kiara seldom laid a hand on children.

“I’m your sister’s colleague, there’s a little misunderstanding at work, and I would like to ask your sister for some clarification,” Kiara said to Yayaka.

“Ah, you’re my sister’s colleague? Are you a clerk too, beautiful sister? Has my sister caused you any trouble at the company? She’s always so clumsy at home. Why don’t you come into our house, and I’ll treat you to some milk tea I made, as an apology for my sister,” Yayaka said, sounding like a little adult.

A child who could speak in such an adult-like manner was not inherently brilliant, but rather driven by the circumstances of life. Kiara, who also came from a poor family during her childhood, naturally understood the child’s psychology.

So Kiara smiled, “Your sister is excellent. While we don’t pay her much at the company, she still works very hard.”

Upon hearing this, Yayaka felt a bit proud and happy. She glanced at her sister and said, “That’s right! My sister is the best! Of course, beautiful sister, you’re pretty great too.”

Seeing that Kiara hadn’t exposed her, Flora Jim took a deep breath and gratefully said to Kiara, “Let’s go out to talk.”

“Let’s talk at home, going outside is a waste of money. You shouldn’t go to any restaurant or cafe, your salary of a few hundred a month isn’t enough for many visits,” Yayaka said, sounding older than her years, and pointed to the house behind her, “Let’s talk inside.”

“But…” Flora Jim hesitated.

“I understand, you’re going to discuss company secrets, right? Afraid I might hear, I get it. I’ll go grocery shopping, and you, beautiful sister, stay for lunch at our house. I’ll cook for you, and don’t let my age fool you, I can make really tasty food!”

Being invited for a meal by such a young child was a strange sensation, Kiara said with a smile.

“No trouble at all.”

“It’s no trouble at all. My sister usually doesn’t have any friends coming to see her, so I’m really happy to see someone looking for her,” Yayaka hopped around the yard, showing a child’s energy for the first time, placed the Bucket in the yard, then went back out and asked Flora Jim for some Money, and rode off on the bicycle from the yard.

As Flora Jim watched her younger sister’s retreating figure, the look in her eyes made Kiara feel like she was seeing herself.

Did she look at her brother with the same kind of gaze without realizing that to an outsider it would seem filled with sibling affection?

“Thank you for what you did in front of my sister–”

“Are you sure you want to talk about this here?” Kiara gestured towards the House, and Flora Jim made a welcoming gesture.

The courtyard wasn’t very large, but it was well-organized–an arrangement common in Linville. However, with more and more apartment complexes popping up these days, houses like these were becoming scarce.

“Did you buy it?” Kiara asked.

“Rented.”

“How much is the rent?”

“One hundred yuan a month.”

As they talked, the two entered the House.

These kinds of houses didn’t have Living Rooms, just two rooms facing each other, and a hallway in the middle that served as the kitchen.

Upon entering, one could immediately smell the fragrance typical of a young girl, and although it was a humble abode, it was arranged warmly and was very clean.

Flora Jim led Kiara into her own room, locked the door, and invited Kiara to sit on the chair. The room had only one chair; the rest of the space was taken up by a bed and a Wardrobe–there was simply no room for anything else. Kiara sat on the only chair, which left Flora Jim with the bed to sit on.

“Would you like something to drink?” Flora Jim asked.

Kiara shook her head, “No need to bother.”

“Well…” Flora Jim suddenly didn’t know what to say, thinking about the actual reason Kiara had come; the usually eloquent woman found herself in an awkward silence.

Kiara didn’t rush to speak, but instead scanned the room with her eyes, noticing several fabric Babies on the bed that seemed somewhat faded.

The Jim sisters reshaped Kiara’s perceptions.

Had she not seen it with her own eyes, who would believe that the super-socialite–who had so many powerful figures wrapped around her finger–would live in such a small House, leading the most ordinary life?

The Wardrobe was a stacked unit, and on the shorter cabinet were two bottles of Cosmetics, the kind of inexpensive skincare you can buy in the Supermarket for a few yuan a bottle.

“Do you always use these? Don’t you have any other Cosmetics?” Kiara asked.

“I only use these for skincare. I’m afraid of letting Yayaka find out if I use anything else. I do my basic skincare at Home, then put on makeup when I get to my Workplace Organisation. I change into my work clothes there, and I remove my makeup before coming home,” Flora Jim explained.

“You go to such lengths just to keep it from your sister?”

Kiara had guessed it: Flora Jim wasn’t living in this kind of House because she lacked Money but because she was afraid of her sister finding out what she did for a living. She pretended to be an ordinary office worker to conceal the truth from Yayaka, with the two sisters safeguarding their small, shabby home.

“My sister is very clever… If I don’t do this, she will definitely find out. If she learns about my life Outside–” Flora Jim paused, then looked at Kiara with a pleading look.

“Sis, you understand that you don’t approve of my relationship with Arlong. I’ll agree to whatever it is you want, just please don’t tell my sister the truth, okay?”

“I’ll be thankful for what you told my sister today for a lifetime, just please don’t expose me.”

Kiara hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. She had considered many possible scenarios for their meeting but had never anticipated this.
