His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 69

As soon as she left the conference room, Niamh called Peter.

It wasn't that she needed Peter to vouch for her—her real concern was that Marina might steal her designs, causing losses for FY.

But Peter reassured her not to worry.

Later, Niamh found out that Peter had filed a design patent with the intellectual property department as soon as he received her sketches. In the end, it was The Thomas Group that had to issue an urgent recall of their new jewelry line from the market.

Today, Jonathan was out of the office.

From her desk, Niamh could see the empty CEO's office across the hall.

As Jonathan's secretary, she knew his daily schedule inside out.

Including today's.

She knew Jonathan had taken the day off to accompany Marina on a yacht trip—deep sea fishing. He had cleared his entire calendar for it, canceling every meeting and business engagement.

Niamh could never forget that during her own miscarriage and hospital stay, Jonathan had been off on a fishing vacation with Marina, not visiting her even once.

"Do you guys think Mr. Thomas and Marina are married already?"

By the coffee machine, Jayne was gossiping with a few colleagues.

"They probably aren't yet! Feels like he's still chasing after her, don't you think?"

"Yeah, otherwise why would Mr. Thomas say nothing when T&R's new line was recalled? He didn't blame Marina at all!"

"He didn't just let it slide—I heard from my friend in HR that Mr. Thomas is even giving Marina a raise!"

"Wow... talk about being untouchable when you're the favorite."

Niamh listened quietly, sipping her now-cold coffee.

If the recall had happened because of her, she could only imagine how differently Jonathan would have handled it.

For once, she didn't have to work overtime. After clocking out, Niamh went grocery shopping alone, eventually wandering over to the dairy section.

A tiny, niche brand of yogurt caught her eye.

There were countless yogurts on the shelves, and to Niamh, they all tasted more or less the same—but Jonathan had always insisted on this one.
