A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1023

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1023

The entire office fell silent and all eyes fell upon Hannah and Regina, not wanting to miss out on the juicy tidbits that the latter spoke of.

“Huh. You really do seem quite fond of going around snapping at people at random. Old habits die hard, don’t they,” Hannah prodded as she thought how beautiful veneers often belied an unspeakable heinousness.

She wondered how Regina’s lover even put up with her.

“Goodness me, Hannah. Who doesn’t know you’ve hooked up with Fabian Norton, and slept with him, his driver and his assistant as well? To think your poor husband has the misfortune of marrying a whore like you,” Regina retorted, not willing to back down.

Hannah heaved, clearly incensed. “If you can’t respect the journalistic profession, you’ll eventually pay the price.” Hannah stormed up and jabbed at Regina’s shoulder, sending the latter stumbling away from the desk.

Regina’s face contorted as she looked to charge at Hannah. The smirking Hannah deftly dodged backwards. Regina, who was too harried on striking, got her own feet entangled and her bum winded up on the floor.

“I’ll get you for this, Hannah Young!” Regina howled. Everyone stared at the pathetic state she was in without coming forth to offer help.

“Oh, and how do you intend to do that?” Hannah looked askance at her counterpart.

Regina shuddered. “Just you wait. Someone like you who pulled strings for advancement won’t get to stick around for too long!”

“Speak for yourself!” Hannah was already packed up and ready to head home.

As she passed, Hannah stopped to loom over Regina. Regina raised her own head to stare back in defiance. Hannah let out a sneer before she departed.

It went without question that this encounter deeply infuriated Regina. Her eyes burned in Hannah’s direction before she clambered onto her feet.
