When I Met You novel Chapter 2

Three years later.

In the guest room of the YS office building, Susan was shivering because of the air-conditioning in the room, while the sultry voice that belonged to a woman opposite her caused her to have goosebumps.

She couldn’t help but frown while repeating her explanation for that woman opposite her, “I’m terribly sorry, Ms. Morris. Mr. Ford has indeed hooked up with a new girl. Please leave with this compensatory cheque.”

Yasmin got up from her seat and tried to flatter Susan to the best of her ability, “Ms. White, just help me call Edward and tell him that I really miss him. I really want to see him now.”

“Edward likes me the most, and I believe that he won’t be so heartless.”

Everyone knew that Ms. White was Edward’s most trusted assistant, and if someone wanted to see him, he or she would have to get over Susan first.

“Ms. Morris, please stop believing in your delusions. Mr. Ford is indeed that heartless.”

After finishing her sentence, Susan stood up and flashed a professional smile at Yasmin before turning around and leaving.

As she opened the door, she added, “If you want to have a little rest before leaving the YS office building, Ms. Morris, you can do as you please. You can have yourself some nice coffee and cake if you turn left after exiting this room.”

She was obviously trying to end this conversation as soon as possible.

However, the moment she stopped talking, a paper cup containing some coffee was flung towards Susan.

Luckily, only a few drops were splattered on her as the cup crashed to the floor.

“Who the hell do you think you are? You are just an obedient lackey by his side, who are you to say that Edward doesn’t like me anymore?”

“You must be very familiar with the way the president bid his farewell to his old romantic interest.”

“Bullshit! This must be your doing! Who do you think you are? I want to see Edward no matter what.”

Yasmin suddenly became agitated as she rushed forward without warning. Luckily, the security guards were able to stop her in time and drag her away.

In the end, this was just another case of a woman throwing a tantrum just because she was abandoned by Edward “peacefully”.

After Yasmin was being shunned away, Susan ordered someone to tidy up the guest room before slowly trudging to the tea corner.

The other employees of the company gathered around the tea are and started to gossip.

“Hey, Ms. White’s job is really too challenging.”

“Our president is really something too. He seems to be changing his female partner once every few days. He’s really too disloyal.”

“How is he disloyal? Rumoured girlfriends are just that, Ms. White has to be the long-lasting one… If you ask me, I would say Ms. White is the president’s true love.”

One employee said jokingly.

“Ms. White needs to deal with all sorts of women for the president yet she can still bear with the troubles. I’m really impressed by her since she hasn’t resigned yet.”

On one side, a woman who was carrying a cup of coffee interjected.
