Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 156

Vera looked at Kimberly hesitatingly for a while before asking,

"Since you've been demoted, what will you do now?"

Kimberly thought to herself, "What will I do? What else can I do?"

"Do I have a choice?" Kimberly replied as she smiled bitterly.

Vera nodded and said, "You certainly have a choice!"

Kimberly raised her eyebrows slightly, indicating Vera to continue.

Vera snorted softly and said, "You can choose to be a cleaner or an ordinary employee. I think Young Master Yardley is very nice to give you a choice."

Kimberly was rendered speechless.

She thought that Vera was being the worst friend right now.

Vera spoke again, "I'm serious. I think you'd better be a cleaner. Although it's a little tough, it's better compared to working in the office. You will definitely have a lot of conflicts with the female employees because of all the rumors between Young Master Yardley and you."

Kimberly could imagine that without needing her to mention it.

If people dared to mess with her even when she was his assistant, she couldn't imagine what they would do to her now that she was demoted.

Kimberly shut her eyes helplessly as she thought about her hopeless future.

"But don't be too pessimistic. Who knows, maybe they will not hate you once they get to know you," Vera said playfully.

If she had the choice, Kimberly would choose to resign.

However, there was no other way. According to Sam, she still owed the company's salary and bonus.

Finally, Kimberly thought about it and chose to work in the office.

When Vera knew her decision, she got very agitated. "What's wrong with you? Didn't I say that they will definitely mess with you?" Vera asked.

"You're right, but everyone knows that I was demoted. Even if I work as a cleaner, do you think they will let me go lightly? They will definitely find a way to mess with me anyway. I'd rather confront them directly," Kimberly said bravely.

Vera looked at her blankly for a long time and suddenly applauded, "I didn't expect you to be so brave. From now on, let's pretend that we don't know each other. I don't want them to mess with

me.

Kimberly smiled and said, "Okay."

She was used to it.

Maddox also said that before. She was only his subordinate at work, not his wife. In fact, he never acknowledged her as his wife, whether at work or privately.

Therefore, Kimberly wasn't offended by Vera. No one liked trouble.

Kimberly packed up her stuff and got ready to report herself to work. As expected, the supervisor warned her as soon as she arrived.

The supervisor casually took her to a desk and said, "This is where you are going to work. A newcomer should know the rules. You should pay more attention to what your seniors ask you to do. Do you understand?"

Listening to these words, Kimberly felt that this supervisor was not so bad, but... very strict.

Kimberly nodded in response.

As soon as the supervisor left, a group of people sitting next to her began to gossip loudly about her.

"I wonder what's wrong with people nowadays. She thinks she is so great because she can be the president's assistant. Look at how unfortunate she is now. She got demoted to such a low position."

"Hey, what's with your attitude? How dare you ignore us?" One of them yelled.

Kimberly replied nonchalantly, "I'm really sorry, but you guys are not my superiors, and I am not your personal assistant. You have no right to give me instructions."

The computer took a while to start. Then, Kimberly quickly ran a virus scan on the computer.

Someone said sarcastically, "Tsk. Fine, we can't give you instructions and only the supervisor has the say, right? Just you wait and see!"

Kimberly ignored them and continued to check on her computer.

She knew that these people despised her. Even if she bought the things for them, they would not change and simply resume mocking her.

Therefore, she might as well ignore them and there was no need to retreat nor compromise.

As she had already ended up at this point, she could only approach the problems head-on and stand up for herself.

After a while, the supervisor called her to the office and handed her several documents.

"This is for a meeting later. The meeting will be held in an hour. I need you to sort all this out." Kimberly looked through the documents and frowned slightly, asking, "Isn't this a bit much to sort out in an hour?"

The supervisor looked up and glanced at her, then said, "Is it difficult? You used to be the president's assistant. It should not be difficult for you. Are you really not capable as they say?"

Kimberly had no choice but to say,"... No, I'll sort it out."

Then, Kimberly took the folder out of the office.

Several women surrounded her table and looked at her, gloating.

They jeered, "Didn't she say that we can't order her around? Yet she's now being instructed by the supervisor. There are so many documents, let's see how she sort them all out before the meeting. If she can't do it well, can we drive her out of this department? After all, Yardley Corporation doesn't need useless people!"

Kimberly did not pay attention to their words. Instead, she sat in front of the computer and started her work solemnly.
