The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11 

Had something gone wrong with his background check on her after all? 

Joe was the only one who responded in delight at the thought of discovering an expert in that matter. He asked Suzanne, “Mrs. Morrison, were you a chemistry major?” 

Suzanne’s eyes were filled with emotion. However, her mind had gone completely blank. She shook her head and said softly, “I’ve forgotten everything.” 

“Forgotten everything?” A look of pity came over Joe’s face at once. “Then, how did you know about Azurium and Rhenium? And you even know the antidote to the poisonous gas too!” 

Suzanne thought about it for a while. Then, she said matter–of–factly, “It’s like knowing that you must use salt when cooking and bait when fishing. It’s common knowledge.” 

The fact that Suzanne called all of that “common knowledge” was enough to send Joe to his 

knees in awe. 

A small distance away, Lucas and Cole returned with some of their subordinates and fed the poisoned staff some alkaline water. 

A few moments later, they stopped throwing up, and the pain in their abdomens also ceased. Although some of them still felt quite dizzy, it was still evident that the antidote had worked 

like a miracle. 

Cole brought the alkaline water over to Nathan and gave it to him politely. He said, “General Morrison, this water is quite effective. Please give it to Ms. Hoffis.” 

Sally gritted her teeth. She was furious that Suzanne had stolen the show despite the incident that had just happened. “I won’t drink it!” 

Nathan frowned. He asked softly, “Why not?” 

Sally started crying again as she kicked up a fuss. 

‘Nate, I won’t drink this kind of concoction! Suzanne didn’t even graduate from middle school, so she’s no different from an illiterate person! There’s no way she knows anything about these things!” 

If Suzanne hadn’t graduated from middle school, it meant that she had only graduated from elementary school! Everyone was shocked. Some of them even looked at Suzanne in disdain.

Suzanne felt a dull throb in her heart. She felt upset, but there was nothing she could say to fight back. 

So she put on a calm demeanor and said nonchalantly, “I see that Ms. Hoffis is very headstrong. After all, a person with integrity would never accept charity handouts. 

“Keep it up, Ms. Hoffis. I’m rooting for you!” 

That said, Suzanne left without looking back. Her slim figure somehow looked sad and lonely as she disappeared. 

Sally pouted and started to grumble. “Nate, what was Suzanne trying to say?” 

Nathan’s face was turning darker and darker. He remained silent and didn’t reply to Sally. 

Why couldn’t she even understand a simple statement like that? 

Cole explained it to her patiently. “Ms. Hoffis, Madam said a person of integrity would never accept charity handouts, which means something like a proud beggar would never take food from people they think are looking down on them. 

“In other words, if you think that Mrs. Morrison is looking down on you, then you can keep being stubborn and not drink the water.” 

“What? Nate! She made fun of me! She called me a beggar!” Sally cried in anguish as she began to sob on the bed. 

Everyone was at a loss for words. 

Nathan was more worried about his destroyed Azurium and Rhenium, especially the latter, which was so rare and hard to obtain that even money couldn’t buy it. He felt a massive headache coming. 

He massaged the spot between his brows and said coldly, “Cole, watch her until she drinks the water.” 

Then, he stood up and left. 

Sally immediately began throwing a fuss. She yelled after him, “Nate, wait! Where are you going? I’m feeling really bad! You can’t leave me here alone like this!” 

Nathan kept on walking as if he hadn’t heard her. If anything, he started walking a little faster than before. 

Since Sally had caused such a huge mess and even made a big scene complaining, everyone there was starting to get tired of her.
