No More Mrs. Nice Wife (Eleanor) novel Chapter 1459

Eleanor turned and shot her a cold look. "If you have something to say, say it."

"I'm getting sacked because you poisoned Ian's mind against me, didn't you? Eleanor, you're such a despicable schemer. Abusing your ex-husband's power to bully employees at Goodwin & Co. You must be so proud of yourself, right?" Faye's voice grew shrill, her face contorted with long-held hatred for Eleanor.

"Faye, watch your words," Eleanor said coldly. "If you have a complaint, you can file a grievance through the proper channels."

"What's the point? This whole company belongs to your ex-husband, Ian. If he wants to fire me, he can use any excuse he wants," Faye said, her eyes filled with pain and animosity. "Eleanor, stop pretending. Everyone knows you're sucking up to Ian again, trying to use your daughter to claw your way back up, right? What, you want to settle a personal score? I'm already out of your way, but you still won't let me go? You still have to kick me out?"

Faye's voice rose, and since the coffee shop was filled with lab employees, all eyes were now on Eleanor.

Seeing how nasty Faye was being, Gwenda tried to intervene. "Faye, Eleanor isn't that kind of person."

"Gwenda, you don't get a say here. The only reason you've gotten this far is by fawning over her like a little lapdog!"

Faye's words grew increasingly harsh and ugly.

Eleanor's eyes hardened. "Faye, have you said enough?"

Faye sneered. "Eleanor, don't get too smug. Do you really think Ian going back to an old flame means he's had a change of heart? A man like him is never short on women. He's only giving you the time of day because of your daughter—"

Seeing Faye's words become more vicious, Gwenda grew angry. "Faye, shut your mouth!"

But Faye took step after step toward Eleanor. She was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, and now, she clenched her fists, her eyes turning venomous.

"Eleanor, you think I'm afraid of you? You think I have nowhere to go after leaving Goodwin & Co.? Let me tell you, I, Faye, have never been any worse than you. You can't break me."

As Faye closed in on Eleanor, a gleaming stainless steel fork suddenly slid out from her right sleeve.
