Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1028
Regina intentionally spoke loudly so that everyone in the office could hear her scathing words through the door.
What followed was a flurry of voices engaging in discussion.
“I think Regina has a point. Many people have interviewed Fabian before. How is it that only she was able to be so successful at it?”
“Right. I would think so too. Fabian never did exclusives before. If she didn’t do anything, how could she have secured this benefactor?”
“Yeah. I don’t know who her husband is, but I wonder if he was aware that she’s this sort of woman.”
…..
The displeasure was apparent on Hannah’s expression in response to the commotion outside. “Not everyone is as shameless as you are, Regina. I’ve done nothing that you’ve been making up time and again, whereas you’re petty and unreasonable. Do you think I’m afraid of you just because I chose to overlook your lack of manners?”
Regina had no retort for Hannah’s pointed barbs, and could only rage on about her own suspicions surrounding the exclusive with Fabian. “Me making things up? Then, explain how only you managed to clinch the interviews with him?”
“I…” Hannah was dumbstruck by that question and did not have a good answer for it.
Did Fabian agree to the interview because I am his legal spouse?
No, it can’t be, as all there is to us is a piece of paper. He was so cold to me and he has the vampish Yvette. There’s no way he would have considered my position.
But what other explanation is there that could account for this fact? Is it my exceeding talent? Heh. I need to stop kidding myself.
Seeing Hannah rendered speechless filled Regina’s heart with glee. She raised her head as much pride as a crowing rooster and taunted, “What else have you to say for yourself? Did I just hit the nail on the head? A woman should be chaste. You say that I’m a mistress and all that, but turns out that underneath that folksy demeanor of yours lies the biggest slut of all!”
