Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 898

Chapter 898 Clara’s Plot

Susan hurried to walk out of the office before Manuel.

When Manuel finally finished his work, someone knocked on the door.

It should be Susan, he supposed.

However, it was Clara.

Ever since Clara started working in the integrated department, she barely had time to talk to Manuel. As he noticed that it was Clara, he didn't seem annoyed. Instead, he asked in a bland tone, "What's the matter?"

"There will be an anniversary activity next week, which will be arranged separately for both the internal staff and the public. We have worked out a proposal for the activity. I believe it's necessary to report to you." Said Clara respectfully.

Luckily, there was nothing wrong with her work in the new department so far.

After checking the time, Manuel responded, "But it's time to get off work."

"I am so sorry…" though she said apologetically, she didn't seem to give up, "But that's the very first project I am in charge of ever since I started my new position. I don't have much time left to report to you. Besides, I heard that you won't be in the office tomorrow."

Manuel remained silent.

Indeed, he would be leaving for the Capital to attend the banquet. So he had planned to spend some time with Susan tonight.

As Susan had insisted, she would never compromise with the Wells.

Whatever. Since she insisted, he decided to let it be.

"I have been working in the position for three months. Though I feel like I don't get along well with my new colleagues, I am fine with that. Work comes first. That's why I am afraid to bring any troubles to the department just because of my incapability." Clara continued.

What she tried to convey was obvious-there was no one else she could turn to in her team. She had been working all alone by herself. If Manuel refused to offer a hand, it would only make her job more difficult.

As Susan hadn't come to his office to leave with him, he supposed she might be working overtime tonight. Commonly speaking, whenever it was time to leave the office, Susan would always expect him in his office.

"How long will it take to report?" Manuel nodded and then asked.

"I will make it brief and finish it in half an hour."

"Okay."

Clara grinned to reply.

Time to carry out her plan, she thought to herself.

She was faking a pitiful look.

After all, no one dared to offend her here.

What was more, it was she who took away the proposal produced by someone else.

She had never been in charge of the anniversary program. Instead, she simply took part in it. After the proposal was finished, she brought it to Manuel on her own without even noticing the team. Of course, she was just trying to strive for Manuel's attention.

In the past three months, she was burning with jealousy when witnessing the intimacy between him and Susan.

But she knew she got to wait for the right time, before which she would conspire to drive a wedge between them.

Then she hurried to present the proposal and started reporting.

The proposal had been well arranged. Besides, it was an annual program. There were a few points worth being reported. As long as they could carry out the procedures as scheduled, it should be moving on smoothly.

However, Clara kept on overstating every detail.

Manuel cut in for a few times, after which Clara promised an improvement. However, whenever she started depicting, she just continued with a long monologue about those details.

Hours had passed.

Susan was growing more and more impatient at home.

She had planned a big surprise for Manuel upon his arrival.

That was why she didn't make a call in the past hours.
