Boss's Sweet Secretary novel Chapter 48

"Miss Monica, don't think too highly of yourself. It'd be very embarrassing for you if all your plans ended up being nothing."

Rose stared at her coldly, and from the corner of her eyes, she saw someone walking from the elevator. She came up with a plan and instantly put on a smile and said,

"Miss Monica, Mr. Hans is really not in the office. Why don't you come to the secretary's office first and have a cup of tea?"

"I don't want your tea, I must get in today..." Monica turned around to open the door. She was so angry she did not notice a tall figure behind her.

"Mr. Hans, this..."

The voice coming from behind made Monica froze all of a sudden, and she stopped opening the door. Unfortunately, the doorknob turned and the door cracked open.

"Mr. Hans, I told her you weren't in the office, but Miss Monica insisted on going in, I couldn't do anything about it."

Rose lowered her head with an aggrieved look, but James saw her sly smile out of the corner of his eyes.

Monica was scared to death. Last time, Hans specifically told her not to go into his office when he was not there, but Rose didn't tell her that Hans was not here just now.

"Hans, I, I really didn't know, I'm not..."

She didn't know what to explain, she was incoherent and stuttered.

She looked up and Hans's cold eyes scared her out of her wits.

"Did you not hear what I said, or did you not take it seriously?"

His voice was not loud, but it was bone-chilling.

Hans closed the door behind him, leaving Monica outside. There were many people there watching her. It was the first time that they saw Hans make Monica embarrassed. People were gossiping among themselves, and Monica heard some of it, which made her resent Rose even more.

She glared at Rose angrily, raised her eyebrows, and said coldly,

"Secretary Rose, helping others is helping yourself. You don't know what's good for you. If anything happens in the future, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy."

Rose had just put Monica in her place and she was very proud of it. She didn't pay attention to what Monica was saying. She snorted and blinked, "A barking dog seldom bites."

The implication was that Monica's threatening tone was just a bluff,  and she got to call Monica a dog too.

The desktop in the president's office showed the surveillance video of the secretary's office and the corridor. Monica walked out embarrassed and Rose's smirk undoubtedly indicated that she orchestrated this accident.

James said beside Hans,

"Mr. Hans, the way Secretary Rose treats Miss Monica, do you need me to remind her to behave a little?"

Hans looked away from the desktop and said coldly,

"There's no need for that. It's good to take Monica down a peg or she will show off in the company."

James nodded. There was a strange look on his face but he did not dare to speak up for Monica anymore.

Rose was in a very good mood after work. She hummed as she went downstairs, she skipped to the square and hailed for a taxi.

A taxi stopped in front of her. She tilted her head and took a look, faintly seeing a man sitting in the back seat.

"Hello, I'm not sharing the ride, you..."

Before she finished her words, the back seat window slowly rolled down, revealing a face with sunglasses.
