Chapter 13 She Just Didn’t Want to Stand Out
Aiden cleared his throat and started talking. “Alright, let’s just have Reese join as a regular employee for now. No need for an interview. And the media still doesnt know Malcolm’s hitched. So keep it on the down–low for none; it I be better for Reese,”
That was exactly what Reese was thinking. She didn’t want to become the target of all the female employees jealousy.
Okay, I’m cool with that.”
Aiden seemed pretty happy with her response.
Back in her room, Alyssa threw all her fancy cosmetics off the table in a fit. “Why does that woman get to join the company? Just look at her, she’s a total embarrassment to the Flynn family.”
Everly had a different take. She grabbed Alyssa’s hand before she could throw more stuff. “Chill out. Think about it, this could actually work in our favor. Grandpa only made her a regular employee, and we’re all above her. Do you really think she’s gonna have it easy in the company?”
“But didn’t you see how Malcolm’s already starting to protect her? Im worried…” Alyssa felt Reese could become a big problem for them.
“Malcolm’s always swamped with work. We’ll catch him when he’s too busy to look out for her. That’s when we strike. Remember, we’re family, and Reese is just an outsider.”
No matter how much Malcolm cared for Reese now, the band and history they had as family would always outweigh any connection with an outsider like Reese.
Back in their room, Malcolm handed Reese a card. “Here’s a no–limit supplementary card. Go buy whatever you need. Even if we haven’t set you up with a great position yet, at least get yourself some new outfits”
Reese waved her hand dismissively. “Nah, I’m good. I still have some cash. It’s enough for clothes.”
“Take it,” Malcolm insisted, practically shoving the card into her hand. “You’re my shabby.”

now. You can’t be living like you’re still in the sticks, looking all
Reese wanted to argue that she wasn’t living shabbily at all. She just preferred to keep a low profile and not draw attention.
She didn’t want to stir up any unnecessary drama. Even though she kept to herself, the Flynn family still didn’t like her.
“Alright,” she said, deciding to hold onto the card for now, even though she had no intention of using Malcolm’s money
Seeing her accept it, Malcolm’s frown eased up.
Just then, Justin had dug up some info and shot a message to Malcolm
Justin: [Mr. Flynn, I’ve found out that Mrs. Flynn did study medicine, but it was just at some ordinary medical school for a bit before she left. Couldn’t track her after that.j
Malcolm wasn’t shocked by this. Given her skilled treatment methods, she must’ve studied medicine somewhere.
But none of the top docs could fix his leg. Could Reese really pull it off?
After
just two treatments from Reese, he could already feel a bit of sensation, even if it was faint.
He always had a hunch that Reese was more than she seemed, definitely not just some regular doctor. Otherwise, how could his leg start to feel again so quickly?
Malcolm replied with a thoughtful look in his eyes: [Keep digging into her past. No matter what, don’t stop!
Justin simply replied: [Gut it
Reese noticed Malcolm staring at his phone, lost in thought. She didn’t shy away and leaned over to peek, her expression
calm.
“Are you talking about me?”
