Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249 Monster 

I felt a lot better after resting for the night. Emma came to the hospital early in the morning just to pick me up. She wanted to talk to me on the way to the company, but she chose not to say anything in the end. 

“Don’t worry, Emma. I’m fine.” 

I took Emma’s hand gently after reaching the company. She just squeezed my hand tightly in 

return. 

“I’m sorry you have to suffer such injustice, Eva. Leonard will definitely regret this.” 

I just shook my head. That was what Jill had said yesterday. 

But it didn’t matter if he regretted his decision in the future. What mattered was the fact that he didn’t regret his decision right now. 

First, I went to the HR department to turn in my resignation letter. The HR manager felt nothing but mixed feelings as she clutched my letter. 

“Ms. Green, are you really quitting this job? Aren’t you going to think it through? If you were to leave, what would happen if the projects…” 

“They won’t have the guts to do that. Don’t worry, I’m leaving today.” 

I knew what the HR manager meant. If I were to leave, there was a chance that the top brass might pin the blame for the projects‘ errors on me. 

But I believed that Amelia would never have the guts to do that. She knew very well that I’d definitely fight back if I was truly forced into a dead end with nowhere to run. In fact, she was afraid of that possibility more than anyone else. 

Once I returned to the office, everyone stood up immediately. 

“Ms. Green, are you really quitting? Please don’t leave us!” 

“Did they force you to quit? Is that what happened?” 

“Eva, where are you going? I’ll follow you! I don’t want this job anymore!” 

“Eva, did they force you to quit by using the documents we signed against you? Damn it! We won’t let you become the scapegoat just to save our hides!” 

Everyone was clearly enraged. They had been working in this industry for so many years- they were no naïve fools. They could tell what Amelia’s true purpose was. 

There were many employees from the other departments gathering outside the design department’s office. Everyone just looked at me sympathetically. 

Chap 249 Morater 

After all, I was the pathetic wife who had recently suffered from a miscarriage thanks to my own husband shoving me to the ground. Not only that, but he and his mistress also pinned the blame on me when shit hit the fan. I deserved all the sympathy I could get. 

I just lowered my head. For a moment, I had a feeling that I’d make a great female lead in a typical angst movie. If everyone were to find out about my cancer, I’d definitely become the female lead of angst novels in the world of literature. 

A smile was already plastered on my face when I looked up at everyone once again. 

“It’s fine. I need rest as well. Everyone, please do your best at work.” 

“Did the company pay you to slack around and gossip?” 

Suddenly, Amelia appeared at the doorway. She glanced at everyone icily. “What are you. standing around for? Don’t you have work to do? 

Her acting skills were definitely superior to Lily’s. After all, she looked like she was the actual boss who ran the company. 

Suddenly, Matthew Newman, the oldest designer in the department, threw his keyboard to the floor angrily. He had been sitting in the corner silently all this time. 

“What’s a secretary like you shrieking at us for? What makes you think you can order us around?” 

Matthew rarely spoke with the others. He was the textbook example of an introverted designer who cared only about work. The moment he spoke up, everyone was stunned momentarily.
