✿ Timeframe: Kyle had left for Country M, with Sayuri, before Kylie's death ✿
Kay sighed.
She sat in her brother's seat - the CEO's seat - at Smith HQ. To all who would see her, they saw a supremely confident woman, worthy of taking the seat while the current CEO was overseas for work.
In truth, she was deathly nervous.
This was something Kyle had been trained from young, for as long as she could remember. Not her.
Thinking back, Kay realised the real reason why Kyle had been bringing her along, ever since they purged Company LV. He wasn't just undergoing training and proving himself as the Smith Heir, he was also training her.
Kay rubbed her temples.
That darn brother of hers.
Even though he did train her on the side, and even though he did leave his capable PA Sam with her, and added Beatrice to the mix, she still felt like she had been hoodwinked.
