Love Together, Be With You Never novel Chapter 110

However, as soon as the elevator door opened, I heard others talk about the Matriarch in fear once more.

"How terrifying the Matriarch is! She gave everyone a good scolding just now, even Mr. Charles!"

"I didn't dare to breathe when I saw her. I was afraid that she would fire me immediately if my breathing isn’t in rhythm with hers!" Two female employees patted their chests in fear and said in the corridor, without noticing me.

I wondered who the Matriarch they talked about was. Was it true that she dared to curse Kieran?

Just as I entered the office, I heard footsteps coming from the corridor. Surprisingly, all the employees in the office began to work in panic, as if they were mice that were about to be caught by a cat.

Just as I was puzzled, a posh old lady walked in elegantly, supported by Everly. Behind her was a large group of bodyguards in black. I instantly understood that she was probably the Matriarch that all the employees were afraid of!

I wondered if it was my misconception, since she looked somewhat familiar. Had we met before?

In an instant, I denied myself. The old lady was richly dressed and looked regal. How could I know her before? I would never encounter her even in the streets.

"Rachael, what are you doing? Hurry up and serve Madame Charles some tea!" Everly smiled and said to me.

I looked at Everly and saw her speaking to the old lady with a smile, "Grandma, she is Rachael, Mr. Charles' girlfriend!" Then she said to me, "Rachael, come over and pour some tea for Madame Charles!"

I was shocked. Everly addressed the old lady, who surnamed Charles, as her grandmother. Was the old lady Kieran's grandma?

I hurriedly poured the tea and brought it over, but I couldn't control myself from being panicked. Kieran and I pretended to be a couple based on a contract. I didn't expect that I would see his family. Moreover, his grandma looked terrifying. She definitely wouldn't like me.

Given Everly seemed to be on intimate terms with Madame Charles, she must have spoken ill of me out of her hatred for me.

I could hardly imagine what would happen later!

Everly stared at me as I walked over. Just as I was about to serve up the tea, Everly tripped me up with her foot.

There came a huge sound!

As the cup was broken into pieces, I also fell to the ground. Without hesitation, I got up from the ground and apologized repeatedly.

"Rachael, what's wrong with you? You were late for work. And now you are being clumsy. You are Mr. Charles' girlfriend. How could you be like this in front of grandma? She is old. What if you hurt her with hot water?" Everly scolded me with an anxious expression, but I could tell she was complacent from her eyes.

I knew that Everly tripped me on purpose. That was why I fell and smashed the cup. However, it was too late when I realized it. Even if I said it was Everly's fault, no one would believe me. And Madame Charles probably would take Everly’s side and be displeased with me.

Since I had had a quarrel with Kieran this morning, I couldn't afford to annoy his grandma again. What if she went to Kieran and told him what happened?

Therefore, I let Everly complain without refuting one single word.
