Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 613

Chapter 613 What Kind Of Boyfriend Are You

Spencer had made that call in front of Jacqueline and the others. Had Charlize made that call instead, Jacqueline would surely have assumed that she was putting up an act.

Since Spencer was a wealthy and successful man, no one would dare call him out for defending Charlize. After all, there was no need for him to put up an act.

Charles was the current chairman of Prosperity Enterprise and the sole heir of the Johnson family.

If Charlize was Charles’ sister, then that would mean she was the daughter of the Johnson family.

That family background alone was enough to make her a good match for Spencer, if not the best. In fact, her social status was much higher than that of Spencer’s.

Most of the onlookers had believed Spencer’s words, but Jacqueline refused to.

If Charlize really is the daughter of the Johnson family, then why didn’t she mention it during her four years in university?

That was when Jacqueline recalled Charlize being picked up by a fancy car at the entrance of the university every weekend and semester break. Her face went pale instantly.

I saw a man in his fifties open the car door for Charlize, so I assumed she had found herself a sugar daddy. I even secretly took pictures of that scene and had my cousin post it in the university’s forum anonymously! That resulted in the other students gossiping about Charlize. Even the campus hunk, who was courting Charlize at the time, changed his mind and courted me instead. I was so happy when it happened. Watching Charlize suffer while everyone else envied me felt really great! However, if she truly is Charles’ sister, then that man was probably just her driver or something.

Realizing the fatal mistake that she had made, Jacqueline instinctively felt the urge to get out of there, but it was far too late.

Charles had already arrived at the scene. Naturally, everyone there recognized him as the CEO of Prosperity Enterprise.

Quite a number of people gasped in shock when they saw Charles show up.

Given how he was dressed in a suit and had his hair styled up nicely, it became obvious that he had just been at a social dinner. “What happened, Charlize? Who was it that bullied you?”

“I wasn’t bullied, Charles,” Charlize replied awkwardly.

Charles knew his sister all too well. He had protected her so much that she became completely harmless.

Sometimes, he wished Charlize would be a little more like Sophia. That way, he wouldn’t have to worry about her being bullied.

Since Charlize refused to tell him the truth, Charles shifted his gaze toward Spencer and asked, “Which employee of mine was it?”

Spencer, who was not as forgiving as Charlize, pointed at Jacqueline with an expressionless look on his face. “That one over there. Her name is Jacqueline Lamer, and she claims to be an employee at Prosperity Enterprise.”

Charles turned his head in the direction Spencer was pointing at and spotted Jacqueline almost instantly. The fact that she was wearing a bright red dress only made her all the more noticeable.

Because Charles was the CEO of Prosperity Enterprise, he had never even met a small-time employee like Jacqueline before. “Which department are you from?”

Jacqueline tensed up the moment she heard that. “I’m sorry, Mr. Johnson! I-I didn’t mean it!”

She only managed to get into Prosperity Enterprise by putting in a lot of effort and having her parents pull lots of strings.

Given Prosperity Enterprise’s reputation in its industry, she could earn two to three times her current wage if she worked there for three years. If she decided to change companies, she could easily get a managerial position with an annual salary of four to five hundred thousand.

“Ms. Lamer, was it? It’s all right if you refuse to answer me. I’m sure the company’s system is working perfectly fine.”

All Charles had to do was have his secretary contact the company’s Human Resources department and pull up Jacqueline’s file from the system.

Realizing that there was no use in pleading with Charles, Jacqueline bit down on her lip and protested, “One who errs unknowingly should not be held responsible, Mr. Johnson! I didn’t mean to say that to Ms. Johnson, and I didn’t know she was your sister either!”
