Sydney's POV
My body trembled with fury at his insult. I knew how hardworking I was. With a will to learn, I could do justice to any job assigned to me. Did he think his offer was the only option left for me to earn?
I marched towards the tent when the staff member whom I had met earlier approached me. “Did you meet Mr. Barlowe, miss?”
I shook my head. “No. He hasn’t returned yet.”
He frowned as if I were crazy. “I saw him return ten minutes ago and go to his office.”
I gaped at the man. “Oh, are you sure? I was there, but I didn’t meet him.”
He shrugged and walked away.
I wandered, considering my next move. Maybe I should talk to the manager of this site. I went back to the office only to see Killian yelling at someone!
Was the man crazy?
I had no wish to face him and left
