13. Accident
After a few moments, Kara was forced to sit in the front passenger seat by Frank. She was wearing
strange clothes like the astronaut. A helmet was placed on her head.
“Sir, are you sure about this decision? They have prepared a racer. Why do you risk your safety?”
“You doubt the capabilities of Savior Automotive’s researchers?”
Kara blinked uncertainly. She didn’t dare nod.
“Or perhaps you regret replacing Jeremy today?” 1
“No. Absolutely not,” Kara replied even though her heart was
struggling to send signals to get out of the car.
Seeing the secretary’s obedience, Frank Harper smiled proudly. Good. Now put on your seat belt!”
After lowering Kara’s visor, he closed the door with a bang. Hver, instead of getting into the driver’s
seat, he stepped back to t
researcher’s side.
“Please begin.”
Everyone was wide-eyed. They looked at the girl who was still waiting in the car. The only thing they
could do was just praying for her life.
“Why is that Perverted Demon taking so long?” Kara muttered as she loosened the collar of her thick
shirt. She started to get hot even though the car cooling system had been set to the lowest
temperature.
A moment later, Kara widened her eyes. She felt the car started to move. As she stared at the empty
driver’s seat, she came to her

“This is an autopilot car?!”
Kara’s face became bloodless. She wanted to jump out, but the car was already speeding up. Before
she had time to control her panic, an obstacle with a human image appeared. The car dodged it swiftly,
but the jolt made Kara scream. “Help! I still want to live!” She held on as tightly as she could.
Kara’s voice couldn’t be heard from outside, but her fear was clearly recorded by the camera on the
dashboard. The faster the car went, the clearer Kara expressed her feelings.
“My soul won’t rest in peace if I die now!”
Frank laughed happily monitoring Kara on the tablet. Every time a new obstacle appeared, her life
seemed almost to be torn from her body. It was very satisfying entertainment for him.
Grinning, he gave the next order. “Perform an accident simulation!”
The researcher eyes couldn’t be wider anymore. “Are you sure. Sir?”
“Sure,” Frank answered as lightly as his laughter.
The researcher wanted to refuse. However, he realized that he
power. With his eyes closed, he pressed the danger button on the remote control in his hand.
A bar suddenly appeared blocking the way. There was only a little room left on the right side for the car
to get through. Looking at the obstacle, all the veins in Kara’s body tensed. She could no longer
breathe.
“No, I don’t want to die…!”
The car suddenly slowed down and swerved to the narrow space available. Parts of its side body
creaked, rubbing against the safety
stopped, she just stayed there with a blank look. Her consciousness was lost. She didn’t know which
corner it was thrown into.
“Bravo! Bravo!” Frank clapped his hands proudly.
The researcher suddenly forgot the tension and smiled brightly. He thought the CEO was happy with
the success of the prototype. In fact, the man wearing sunglasses was satisfied seeing his secretary
suffer.
“Congratulations, Kara Martin. You have completed this trial safely,” Frank said after opening the door.
Instead of answering, Kara just blinked. She still hadn’t regained consciousness. Even after turning her
head and seeing Frank’s triumphant smile, she only let out a faint sigh.
“Come out now! Our time is limited. I still have to meet clients, while you have to make a report about
your experience in taking part in this
trial.”
With stiff movements, Kara got out of the car. A woman from the development team helped her.
However, with her shaking knees, k still had difficulty finding her balance. She staggered forward and
Frank in the stomach with her helmet.
“Hmmph!” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
The CEO spontaneously held Kara’s shoulders. His stomach throbbed from the impact.
Meanwhile, the guards exchanged glances with each other. They didn’t expect that Kara could be a
threat to their boss. Was their guard not tight enough or was Frank Harper careless?
“Kara Martin!”
Kara gasped. Blood was flowing again in her brain. She realized that
off her helmet and bowed repeatedly.
“I’m sorry, Sir. I didn’t mean to harm you. It’s an accident.”
Gritting his teeth, Frank grabbed Kara’s arm. “You call that accident?”
Even though the CEO was wearing sunglasses, Kara could see the burning flames around his gray
eyes. She wanted to extinguish it with an explanation. But suddenly, her stomach churned. Failing to
quell the nausea, she vomited.
“Aargh…!”
Frank’s eyes had never opened so wide. His lips had never quivered so fast. Kara’s vomit not only got
on his protective clothing, but also his shoes. He had never felt that dirty in his entire life.
“Kara Martin…!”
Kara held her breath. While wiping her mouth with the glove, she glanced around, hoping to find a way
to escape. Frank Harper would have chopped her up finely.
However, the team of researchers and developers already s
them. Several people competed to clean the CEO’s clothes,
rest stood as still as a fence. It seemed like they didn’t allow
escape.
“You!” Frank pointed his finger right in front of Kara’s nose. “I’ll cut your salary one hundred percent!”
Kara’s eyes widened. It was worse than what she had thought.
Without a salary, how could she support her children? What about the kindergarten registration fee and
the promise to take them to another fancy restaurant?
“Wait a minute, Mister Harper. Isn’t our agreement only ten percent? Why is it 100 percent now? After
all, it’s not entirely my fault. You put

turn around when I vomited.”
Frank didn’t care. He walked away towards the changing room and Kara wasn’t allowed to chase him.
He even left the location without
her.
Kara realized she had taken the wrong step. She had to apologize immediately, and the only chance to
do so was the next morning. when the CEO entered the office.
“You still dare to show your face?” Frank’s tone rose.
Frank looked away as if he didn’t care. However, his lips failed to contain his curiosity. “Then, what is
the fourth?”
Frank’s eyes narrowed. However, not a word came out of his mouth. Kara wondered whether there is
something wrong with what she said.
“I admit that I am afraid of losing my salary. However, my apology is sincere.”
“Are you really willing to do anything?”
Kara was silent for a moment. ‘Did I say that?’
Remembering Louis and Emily’s warm smiles, she quickly put aside her ego. “Yes, Sir.”
“Well then, while working as a secretary here, you must be my servant
thetoo.”
Kara’s brain froze. A bad feeling was creeping out of her heart.
