In the washroom, Charlotte was splashing cold water onto her face in a desperate attempt to calm herself down. As she recalled the incident that night, she was utterly bewildered by what had happened.
She fiddled through her phone and identified the contact number saved as “Gigolo in Debt”. Hesitating, she ruminated about whether to call him.
After all, she had to stay firm with the decision that was made that day. Since then, she had never contacted him anymore. If I were to contact him now, that will amount to a tight slap to my face!
Besides, it took an insurmountable effort to cut ties with the gigolo. If I contact him now, I’ll be entangled in this messed-up relationship again!
Eventually, she decided to heed her rational senses. The burning issue was with Zachary. He had become immensely possessive over her. Sooner or later, something bad would happen.
Perhaps I should leave Divine Corporation.
Currently, the income from DTT was sufficient to feed the family. Once her income source has stabilized, she would tender her resignation letter to the Divine Corporation.
Charlotte felt relieved after making that decision.
She kept her phone in her pocket and returned to work.
Suddenly, Danial came over and asked anxiously, “Charlotte, did Mr. Nacht fire you?”
“Why would I be fired?” Charlotte was puzzled.
“The way you talked back to him just now, are you not in trouble for that?” Danial scrutinized his surroundings cautiously and said, “He was fuming with anger. It was a terrifying sight!”
“Yes, he was indeed furious,” Charlotte feigned her frustration, “additionally, he lambasted me and chased me out of the room.”
“He merely reprimanded you?” Danial was surprised.
“What did you think happened?” Charlotte laughed bitterly.
Danial replied, “Good to know. You’re so lucky...”
After that, Danial did not say anything further and returned to work.
Charlotte thought to herself. I should avoid that Devil in the future. Or else, rumors will start circulation in the company again.
After work, Charlotte’s colleagues invited her to join them for dinner but she rejected their kind invitation.
Her priority was her children back home. With the scarce time that was available, she treasured the invaluable family time and wanted to spend time with her children. Not to mention, she would need to work at the bar later at night.
