I Fell for the Man Who Ruined Me, Then He Forgot He Ever Loved Me Back novel Chapter 264

Her attitude was sincere, humble, yet profoundly serious. Every word she spoke was clear and unwavering.

Listening to her speak, Rowena noticed the whispers of doubt in the crowd gradually fading. She shot Sienna a look of pleasant surprise.

It was impossible for a brand-new assistant to jump straight to management without sparking controversy.

But with this kind of poise while facing that controversy head-on... maybe she really could handle the job.

Rowena stepped up to close the meeting. "Since Sienna is still acclimating to the department, she'll start by managing a single team. Liam, she is your direct superior from now on. If you have any issues, you report to her."

In the crowd, Liam's face was a storm of conflicting emotions. His jaw was clenched so tight the muscles jumped. He remained silent, clearly struggling to digest the humiliating reality.

His ex-girlfriend had been a lowly assistant yesterday. Today, she was his boss. He shot a glance in her direction, but Sienna wasn't even looking at him.

He looked back at Rowena and gave a stiff nod.

Jorrod missed the Friday afternoon meeting.

He only discovered the truth when he went downstairs to look for Rowena.

The department floor was brightly lit. He stopped at the entrance, his gaze sweeping over the sea of cubicles before locking onto a specific corner, unable to look away.

They weren't standing too close, but they certainly weren't far apart.

Sienna had her back to him. She was standing by Liam's desk, tapping her finger against his computer monitor to point something out.

Jorrod couldn't see the expression on her face, but he had a crystal-clear view of the way Liam was looking up at her.

His gaze was intense. Focused.

Jorrod's predatory eyes darkened, narrowing slowly as he watched them.
