His Housewife Had Secret Identities novel Chapter 97

"This isn't going to work... I took another look, and we'd better just go back to the original version."

Marina stood by Niamh's desk, issuing orders with her usual brisk authority.

This was Niamh's new desk.

She'd switched jobs recently—not Jonathan's secretary anymore, but now an employee in the Thomas Group's Design Department.

Marina was her supervisor.

Niamh had no idea if this arrangement was Marina's idea or Jonathan's.

She'd already drafted her resignation letter, but she couldn't bring herself to submit it.

The last time she'd brought up resigning to Jonathan, he'd shot her down so firmly that she'd been left speechless.

After all, her joining the Thomas Group had been Jonathan's condition for letting Lana off the hook.

Even now, if she brought it up again, there was a ninety percent chance Jonathan would refuse to accept it.

And truthfully, Niamh herself was torn about whether to resign.

She didn't want to work under Marina.

But even more, she didn't want Marina thinking she was running away out of fear.

In the end, the resignation letter sat in her drawer, untouched.

On her very first day in the Design Department, just as she'd expected, she was working late again.

After more than eighty revisions, they were back to the very first draft. Niamh couldn't even claim Marina was picking on her—this was just how things worked in the design world.

Fortunately, overtime didn't bother Niamh. She'd long since gotten used to it; it was practically second nature.

What did bother her, though, was seeing Jonathan show up at the Design Department entrance to pick up Marina at the end of the day.

The last time they'd been at the Jade Peak Pavilion, Jonathan had made himself clear—

He knew she was the one who'd carried him down eight flights of stairs.

Niamh couldn't figure out how Jonathan had found out.

Everyone else thought it had been Marina who'd helped him.
