Chapter 83
Melanie was stunned speechless for a moment, then turned and fled without looking back. “Y–you’re serious! Fine, I’m going. I won’t come here ever again!”
The door slammed shut
On the other end of the line, Flora sounded puzzled. “What’s going on!”
Gwyneth chuckled. Just scared a coward so much they ran away with their tail between their legs”
She thought. ‘Melanie couldn’t even tell the difference between a police officer’s voice and Flora’s, and she ran away in a panic. What a coward!
Then, she and Flora started discussing work stuff.
At noon. Gwyneth was about to go downstairs for lunch. Just as she reached the elevator, Flora called
Flora began. “An assistant from Flynn Group is here to see you urgently. Melanie let her up. Mr. Flynn will be arriving soon, and the higher–ups have arranged for you to meet with them.
Gwyneth thought, It’s obvious that Melanie and Quentin agreed to this. Always meddling. But since the visitor was already let up, as a manager at Jenkins Group, she couldn’t refuse to meet her.
She waited by the elevator for a moment. Suddenly, a voice came from the nearby stairwell. “Gwyneth, it’s me.”
Gwyneth turned towards the voice. Bella was wearing a simple light colored dress today, looking particularly sweet and innocent. Gwyneth asked. “Bella? How come I didn’t know you had an assistant position at Flynn Group?”
Bella smiled smugly, “Zachary takes me everywhere he goes. Having a title or not is just a matter of my word. But you, even hooking up someone like Harrison, you can only be a mistress in hiding
with
“You used to be so high and mighty, but now look at you, throwing yourself away. You loat Zachary and now you’re messing around with a married man. How can someone as filthy as you still have the nerve to want it all?”
Gwyneth crossed her arms, looking at Bella helplessly. I think your mouth is the filthiest thing here. How Zachary can stand kissing you? I’ll never know
Bella clenched her fists, pretending to stay calm as she retorted. “Don’t just talk tough. If you really have guts, kick Mrs. Lopez out and take her place yourself. Stop clinging to Harrison while still hanging around Zachary.
“I give those words right back to you,” Cwyneth sneered, looking down at the defiant Bella in front of her.
She continued, “If you’ve got what it takes, get Victor’s approval and become Mrs. Flynn openly. Why are you jumping around in front of me
Hearing Victor’s name made Bella furious. Victor still liked Cwyneth and not her. She could never gain his approval.
like
Gwyneth saw Hella’s face turn red with anger and her smile grow even wider. “Without Victor’s approval, what are you, just a clingy woman next to Zachary!”
“Your Hellaryes were filled with rage
She wanted to tear Gwyneth apart, but then she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. Her eyes widened. It was time.
Bella took a small bag of pollen from her pocket. In Cwyneth’s astonished gaze, she opened the bag and brought it to her nose.
I will get Zachary And you’ll be just a stepping stone? She took a deep inhale of the pollen.
Gwyneth thought, “She’s crazy! Does she want to die?
Gwyneth tried to match the pollen away, but Bella had already put the bag away and started coughing violently, retreating step by step towards the
stairwell.
It’s a dangerous situation. Gwyneth tried to grab Hella’s arms, but was harshly pushed away. Bella gritted her teeth and fell down the stairs.
Suddenly, the elevator doors opened, and Zachary rushed out. He saw Bella tumbling into the stairwell while Gwyneth stood there with her arm Hill punstretched.
With a furious look, he shoved past Gwyneth and ran towards Bella. “Move! Hella!”
