Chasing After My Beloved Wife novel Chapter 23

The smile on Vivian's face grew when she saw that Joye was silent.

"Anyway, Miss. Leonard, I am very grateful for your care for Shawn in the past three years. But now that I am back, I want to amend my wrongs as soon as possible—"

"So?"

Before she could finish her words, Joye had already interrupted. She straightened her back and said, "Miss. Hilary, you keep calling me Miss. Leonard. It seems that you have forgotten that I am still Shawn's lawfully wedded wife. Please address me as Mrs. Richard."

"Oh, and there's one more thing you should know. You're fired."

She stepped forward and tugged the badge on Vivian’s chest, tilting the badge. Vivian frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Joye sneered, "I am the biggest shareholder of the Richard Group, meaning I am more qualified than the man you took from me to decide if you can work here. I'm sorry. I don't want you here, Miss Hilary."

Vivian didn't expect that Joye, who looked weak, would have such a strong side. Her expression changed slightly, but she quickly recovered.

"I understand. It doesn't matter. I believe that Shawn will arrange a more suitable position for me, such as—"

Vivian deliberately lengthened the ending, but she didn't finish her words. Instead, her lethality increased as she walked away. Joye stared at Vivian's back as Vivian left with a faint smile. She couldn't contain the anger in her eyes. Compared with Yelena and the other women Shawn was with before, Vivian was a stronger opponent.

As she breathed in and out, she smelled the lingering scent of perfume, and her desire to use the bathroom was gone.

When she left the Richard Group building, the secretary had driven the car to the entrance. Seeing that she didn't look well, the secretary couldn't help but ask. "Miss. Leonard, are you unwell?"

The crisis of Leonard Group was over, but why was Joye's face so pale?

"I'm fine. Just drive."

"Okay."

As soon as the car arrived at the parking lot gate, Shawn's Rolls-Royce sped over from the other side. The two cars almost collided with each other.

Joye was shocked as she grabbed the handle over the car's door. Through the windshield, she saw Shawn's aloof smile and the woman who said she would accompany him for the rest of his life in his passenger seat.

"Miss. Leonard—" The secretary didn't expect that the adulterous couple would be so arrogant and wanted to speak up, but Joye said, "Let them go first."
