At the moment, there was only Ella in the office. She wanted to leave. Anyway, Aiden didn’t say this contract translation is needed urgently. She will not work overtime for him!
She took her bag and left.
Just now, her colleagues Bella and Anne sent her a text message asking her to meet, saying they had something important to tell her.
Ella was just about to leave the office when she received a call from a stranger.
"Ella, you're too busy to reply to me even after sending you several DMs, don't tell me your account was frozen."
When she heard that it was actually Arthur calling, she asked, "How did you get my phone number?"
Arthur was playing cards at a friend's private club, with a cigarette in his mouth, "It's just a phone number. It's quite easy."
"Have you received the clothes I sent you?"
"Received, but it seems to have broken..."
Ella frowned and said, "It’s Impossible! It's not my business if it's really broken. You should ask the express company for compensation."
Arthur laughed, "You’re so anxious. I'm just kidding with you."
"It’s so boring! I'll hang up if you have nothing important to say." Ella had to rush to meet Anne and Bella. She had no time to talk to Arthur.
Arthur also perceived her impatience and so he hang up the phone.
***
Forty minutes later, Ella took a taxi to the restaurant.
She went up to the private room on the second floor of the restaurant. Ella had just settled down when Bella asked her directly, "Ella, do you know about Sofia's dismissal by Daniel?"
"What? Sofia was expelled by Daniel? I thought she had taken leave to go back home!" Ella was surprised.
Bella and Anne looked at each other. Anne laughed, "It seems like you really don't know..."
Then Anne told the whole story. Ella then knew that Sofia had been fired by Daniel. But the design department had not yet been publicly notified it.
Ella couldn’t believe that Sofia had cheated in the design competition last time. She hired someone to design for her.
Bella asked Ella: "Now that you are the boss's assistant intern. Tell us honestly what is your relationship with Daniel? Sofia told us that you..."
Ella asked, "What did she say about me?"
Bella glanced at Anne. And Anna laughed, "Sofia said you have a crush on Daniel. But you’re already married."
"How could she talk like that! I don't like Daniel. And I'm already divorced!" Ella was so angry.
They were shocked by the news that she was divorced.
