Chapter 54 Let Him Die
After the names had been decided, Jean took her bag and left the venue. Some interns asked her, “Jean, which office do you work at? We’ve never seen you in the building.” Jean stopped for a moment and said, “I’ll go wherever I’m needed.”
Her work these few days had just been odd jobs. Monica even had her go to the markets to buy shoe insoles, but no matter what kind of jobs they gave her, Jean would always do her best without complaints.
The interns misunderstood her words and envied her, “If only we could follow Ms. Weller. She’s so pretty, so all those rumors about her must be because people are jealous of her and just want to frame her.”
The corner of Jean’s mouth twitched. She was not sure of that, but she was sure that Monica Weller was an alcoholic.
“Jean, wait, I need to talk to you.” Ally chased after Jean and pulled on her bag, “You were mistaken, I didn’t mean anything just now with Brittany.” The more she tried to explain, the softer her voice got. She looked up with red eyes and looked aggrieved.
“Let go.” Jean said, annoyed.
“Jean, it was really a misunderstanding.”
“Don’t pretend like you didn’t mean it. I know you’re just scared that I’ll talk bad to Ben about you.” Jean put her hands into her pockets and stared at Ally. As Jean saw the panic in her eyes, her smile deepened, “I don’t have time to play your childish games. Just stay away from me.” She turned around and left, leaving Ally in her dust.
Brittany came up from behind, “Ms. Sans, I’m sorry…”
‘Smack’
Ally’s eyes immediately turned fierce, completely different from her meek character from before.
“Are you seriously apologizing? If it weren’t because I saw a little use in you, you wouldn’t even be worthy of wiping the dirt on my shoes. Go away, I don’t want to see you.” Ally strongly pushed Brittany away. She then took the elevator to one of the offices on the top floor.
She never thought that Jean would be so difficult. If she had known, she wouldn’t have wasted energy to come to MON & Co. But since she was out in the open, she couldn’t lose.
Ally pushed the door to Hansen Young’s office. “Hansen, you acted pretty well just then.” She smiled at him.
Ally had known Hansen for a while, and what more, her family had shares in this company. She only had to speak up to get a job at this company. She had wanted Jean to owe her a favor, and with that favor make her stay away from Ben. Now, she knew she couldn’t do that anymore. So, she could only get rid of her and never let her come back.
…
The next day, Jean left for the airport after packing some things. Ally and Sally were already there when she arrived, though the two did not look close. When Sally saw Jean, she greeted her first, leaving Ally to stand awkwardly at the side.
“Dear passengers, the flight to Sacrelo will soon depart, please make your way to the boarding gate.”
Jean pulled her suitcase as she looked for her seat.
“Ms. Eyer?” someone called out to Jean.
Jean turned around and saw Miles sitting across the aisle from her.
If he was here, that meant…
Jean furrowed her brows and looked toward the business class section. Sure enough, she could see a wrist decked in a high-end brand watch with diamonds on it.
