Billionaire Lost to His Surrogate In A Love Game novel Chapter 124

Ophelia signed secretly. She thought this company would be a better place in which she could at least had friendly colleagues. It turned out that she took it too simple. Survival in the workplace was a pretty precious skill, and wherever there were people, there will be disputes.

A person who greeted you with a smile wasn't necessarily treating you with sincerity. Sometimes it was hard to read people because their emotions always hide behind their faces. Most people in this company were friendly to her because she had a connection with Tassach. She knew there were lots of people who envy her good luck. She skipped the probation period and got the chance to Shanghai so easily that she was sure people would speak critically of her.

No wonder people would believe in Gracie that she had an affair with Tassach. Tassach had given her too much privilege in this company, which had become very unfair to other staff. If this went on, the gossip would become much more hurtful.

Ophelia thought these were just slander, and they wouldn't believe it even if they heard about it. However, how it seemed that her colleagues had believed in it.

Ophelia heard her colleagues talking about her in the bathroom. She loved gossip, but she didn't like the feeling of being gossiped about.

It was two colleagues from her department that Ophelia once trusted and had a nice relationship with. She was shocked that they would one day slander her with such mean words.

One of them said, "I never thought she would be like this. She was hooking up with Mr. Conduibh during pregnancy? I heard that beautiful women have low moral bottom lines, and the prettier they were, the sluttier they would be. They will have a foot in several camps even if they are married. I didn't believe this before, but now I've been convinced."

The other one said, "But she's pretty! Women like me didn't even have the chance to set a foot in two camps. I can only find a stupid man to get married to and let him father a few children for me. We don't have a lucky life like hers. She was dripping with gold and silver, beloved by a man like Mr. Conduibh. I've seen how seductive she is, I think Mr. Conduibh might not be her only one. There must be other senior executives that have been under her skirt."

"Your words were a bit harsh, but I agree with it. She looked so seductive that I think that was exactly something she would do. She always seemed so unsatisfied... well well..."

The two talked and laughed in the bathroom for quite a while, and then they left together.

Ophelia's eyes were rimmed with tears. She felt so sad because she thought she had been getting along with her colleagues very well. Those words were so unexpecting and harsh. She couldn't believe that these people believed in it without any proof.

She felt bitterly disappointed.

This reminded her of the nightmare that happened about four years ago. She was set up by a colleague that she thought she could trust. The woman accused Ophelia of selling a contract to their company's competitor. The company withdrew its charges against Ophelia at last, but she ended up with a one-million debt. She had no way to find that money until Zach approached her.
