After relentlessly pursuing Kathleen, who remained unyielding, Aiden reluctantly resorted to alternative tactics. Utilizing cunning strategies, he manipulated the situation, making her work alongside him daily in an attempt to forge a closer bond. One day, he presented her with a list of strict rules: 1. Stay away from my private quarters; no unauthorized access. 2. Maintain vigilance at all times, be diligent. 3. Gossip is strictly prohibited; embody the therapist's integrity. 4. Accompany me during my sleep, always by my side. 5. Show respect; no defiance is tolerated. 6. Mind your own business, avoid prying. 7. No physical altercations or bullying. 8. Friends are off-limits. 9. Unless it's your designated day off, remain within the mansion. 10. Your working hours are from 9 AM to 10 AM and midnight until dawn. Kathleen's anger flared when she read these conditions, spewing curses at him: "You hear me? Screw your ridiculous rules! You're a complete lunatic!" Nonchalantly, he countered, "Don't forget, you owe me." She retorted fiercely, "I'll repay every penny I owe, but to hell with you!" However, his next statement left her stunned. With a smirk, he posed a question, "Just how do you plan on repaying $10 million?"
