The Unexpected Marriage novel Chapter 10

Darren stopped for a while with a cigarette in his hand and said, "Go on."

Secretary Zhang's face looked a little complicated. Indeed, Joan found a job that could support her to sustain her life. She made it to be an assistant to a designer who was not very famous at all. It was really unfair for a talented designer like her. Joan's works all became Todd Liu's. And Todd Liu obtained a big order because of her draft and more and more famous in the industry.

All her honor and interests had been given to him. What Joan got was only a small amount of salary.

Frankly speaking, she helped others cheat.

She had no choice but to earn her living, "Miss Gu is so talented. If she have a good platform, she must be very outstanding. With that stain, her whole life is almost ruined. Otherwise, if you recruit her in the Lu Company, those top designers can quit their jobs. Now... What a pity. "

Through this period of time's observation of Joan, Selina Zhang's impression of this strong woman was very good. Although she was born in a wealthy family, she was not arrogant or restrained. She did not abandon her dignity because of the awkward situation, but trying to live with her own hands. So she sighed and spoke more of her.

"Mr. Lu, Todd Liu doesn't look like a good person. I'm afraid that she is not safe if she stays there for a long time."

After keeping silent for a while, he waved his hand and asked Selina Zhang to come to him. Darren whispered something to her.

After Selina Zhang withdrew from his office, Darren took out his wallet and opened it. There was a photo of a young girl with a pair of beautiful eyes and a gentle smile on her face. She resembled Joan.

The scene of his meeting with Joan last time came to his mind. His eyes rolled and seemed to be contemplating about something.

It was a clean and tidy room with snow-white paint on it.

Although it was narrow, it was enough for Joan.

The designer of the private studio she worked for provided a room for her.

Joan rubbed her swollen eyes and inadvertently glanced at the clock at the corner of her desk. It was already two o'clock in the morning, but she had only finished a third of the orders in her hand. She had worked for several nights, but she was unable to finish her task. She always got one order after another.

Raising her head and drinking a mouthful of bitter coffee, Joan forced herself to cheer up and began to sketch carefully again.

"Joan, it's so late. You must be tired,"

The door was opened suddenly, with a smell of alcohol rushing in.

Joan stood up all of a sudden, looking warily at the man. "Designer Liu, what is the matter?"

This man was the boss of her private studio. He also signed his name on her design drafts.

Joan always cut off her contacts with Todd Liu, except for giving them drafts. She wouldn't see him in person.

'It is late. What is he doing here...'

Todd Liu chuckled as he raised the midnight snack in his hand, "I know you must be very tired working these days, so I bring you some snacks. Don't be so nervous, my dear. You've been here for more than half a month. We haven't talked much yet."

He said, walking a few steps towards Joan.

Every step he took forward, Joan took a step back. It was not until her back was pressed against a cold wall that she realized that there was no way back.

"Joan, you seem to be scared of me. It's okay. I won't bite you. I just want to -". Todd Liu narrowed his eyes with a lustful look, trying to touch Joan's face.
