Now, it wasn’t as if Sasha didn’t have a swimming costume, but how could she lend something like that
to someone else?
Hence, she answered politely, “I’m sorry but I don’t have a swimsuit as I rarely swim. How about I have
someone bring you a suit?”
Even though she disliked Minerva, Chloe had treated Sasha well when she was a child and she could
not forget that kindness.
However, Minerva anxiously protested, “Are you serious? You have such a big swimming pool at home
but no swimsuit? How backward you locals are. You don’t know how to enjoy life at all!”
Out of respect for her aunt, Sasha gritted her teeth but didn’t retort.
After grumbling for a while, Minerva waved her hand. “Fine; have someone bring me a suit. But you must
hurry or my friends will be going back to work or class, and then they won’t be able to see my story.
They’ll be very disappointed if they don’t see me!”
Exasperated, Sasha could only call her secretary and have her secretary fetch her a swimsuit.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Minerva added the moment she made the call, “By the way, please let the
person know that my swimsuit can’t be too poor in quality as my skin is sensitive. If the fabric scratches
my skin, I might develop rashes!”
Goodness—you’re impossible to wait on! thought the exasperated Sasha.
Twenty minutes later, a Porsche drove up to the gates of the villa.
After exiting the car, Sasha’s secretary handed a bag to her and said, “Here’s the swimsuit you
requested for, President Cunningham. You didn’t happen to mention the brand you were looking for, so I
took the initiative to get you one from Chanel. If you find it uncomfortable to wear, I can help you switch
to a different brand.”
This secretary of hers was quite a thoughtful and attentive one.
Since she thought Sasha wanted the swimsuit for herself, she took special care while selecting it.
Sasha smiled and answered, “This will do. I’m so sorry for bothering you so early in the morning!”
Flustered, the secretary replied, “Oh—it’s not a problem at all, President Cunningham. If there’s nothing
else you need, I’ll take my leave.”
Upon hearing that, Sasha nodded.
With that, the secretary got back into the Porsche and left.
At this moment, Tate and Minerva were sitting in the courtyard and saw everything.
Immediately after the secretary left, Minerva ran over and questioned, “Is that your friend, Sasha? She
has a Porsche! That’s so cool! Is her family rich?”
Demi happened to reach the gate in time for this conversation and she sneered, “What do you mean
‘friend’? That’s my sister’s secretary!”
Wide-eyed, Minerva repeated, “Secretary?”
“Yes; my sister’s personal secretary,” Demi elaborated. “She’s responsible for helping Sasha manage her
day-to-day business.”
Also stunned, Tate called out, “What do you work as, Sasha? Why do you have a personal secretary?”
Upon hearing that, Demi proudly announced, “She’s the president of Cunningham Pharmaceuticals!
She’s in charge of the whole company, so of course she has a personal secretary. How could she not?”
Just like that, Tate and Minerva were struck silent.
Indeed, from the previous night till now, they hadn’t managed to ask a single question about Sasha or the
rest of her family.
In truth, while they were still overseas, Chloe had told them more than once about Helen’s family being
poor.
Thus, they subconsciously thought of the Cunningham Family as destitute relatives who tried to take
advantage of others at all times.
If it weren’t for Chloe’s sake, they wouldn’t have attended the so-called family gathering upon their return
to the country and because they found these poor relatives too shameful, they hadn’t bothered to ask
about how the family was doing now.
Naturally, that meant they were completely caught off-guard.
Presently, Minerva gaped at Sasha and the former asked, “Is that true, Sasha? Are you really the
president of a company? I-Is your company large?
However, Demi interrupted with a snort, “What? Did you think I was lying? Her secretary drives a
Porsche. Does that sound like a small company to you?”
