"Excuse me?
Do you think you're Mrs. Li? Or his girlfriend?"
Sophia walked past Jamie and stopped at the office closet.
Jamie rolled her eyes, and replied to Sophia with contempt. "So far, neither. But not for long.."
Jamie firmly believed in her power of seduction. If she wanted a man, there was nothing he could do.
"Then how about you keep your slander to yourself until you are, " Sophia sneered.
By sneering, Sophia was also making a statement about her status.
She was Colin's wife, but she had never seduced him.
Suddenly, Sophia felt a hand pull hard on her shoulder. As she turned, a palm landed square on the side of her cheek.
Heh!
This must be Karma!
She had slapped Colin the night before, and now, just a day later, she was the one being slapped.
The three other secretaries watched with a look of horror on their faces. They knew that Jamie was proud and defiant.
But this was extreme!
"Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me like that!"
After slapping Sophia on the face, Jamie felt much better. Her anger seemed to fade as the redness drained from her face.
Sophia covered her aching cheek with one hand and rubbed it occasionally. "Miss Chiao, has it ever occurred to you that we are the same rank at this company? We do the same job, have the same responsibilities and share the same title?
"You're no different than me!"
Sophia then pulled out her work clothes and ignored Jamie while she put them on.
"Jamie, you'd better pray there is never a day when you work for me."
When Jamie heard Sophia say they were the same, she felt the sudden impulse to slap her again. Luckily, Gillian Ho interrupted, "Miss Chiao, it's already 7:50, you'd better get ready for the meeting."
This interruption stopped Jamie from doing more, and she angrily stomped out of the room in her eight-centimeter heels.
Afterwards, alone in the dressing room, Sophia felt her burning cheek. It must be beginning to swell, she thought to herself.
As for Gillian, well, she owed her one.
Sophia quickly change her clothes before heading out to the secretary's office. It was Gillian's turn to go to the
Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.
"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.
"You! Give that land to my family, or I won't agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.
"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.
looked up and down Sophia's body.
Sophia was no idiot.
"No! I actually don't need that leave! Let me out now!"
Ignoring her, Quincy brazenly grabbed her hand. "Miss Lo, what about I give you one afternoon's leave?"
Quincy Chu had quite the employment history. Formerly, at his previous job, he had had to quickly quit and run after he had messed with the wrong person.
Somehow, he hadn't changed one bit following the ordeal.
Sophia pulled her hand back in digust, "Mr. Chu, show some respect."
Continuing to ignore her, Quincy responded, "Miss Lo, how old are you now? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Her words had clearly fallen on deaf ears.
Sophia frowned at Quincy. "Do you even know who my boss is? I am Mr. Li's private secretary. Do you have any idea what he would do if I told him about this?"
"Come on Sophia.. We all know he doesn't like you.
You can say whatever you like. There's no way he would fire an HR manager for you."
Apparently every attendee had seen Colin picking on Sophia in the meeting yesterday.
Hearing this for the first time, Sophia's heart ached. "Mr. Chu, let me out now. Or I will make you regret it."
Taken aback by her strong refusal, Quincy gave up. "Fine. But don't ever ask for leave again! I'll never approve you again."
Alone again in his office, Quincy sat back at his deck and began to work. He was a normal, well-dressed man on the outside, but a pig on the inside.
