The ill-intended kindness that confronted Rebecca Quentin brought her steps to a halt.
Rita Young stopped in front of Rebecca with her high heels, her slender and tall figure condescendingly looking down at Rebecca, "I really can’t tell that you’re so deep and hidden, huh?"
Rebecca, already accustod to being ostracized by her colleagues, displayed a calm face at this mont.
"Rebecca Quentin, twenty-eight years old, the only daughter of Alexander Quentin, the forr chairman of ’Quentin’ Group in T City. Married to Howard Geoffrey, president of ’Skytop’ Group, at twenty, divorced at twenty-two, family declined, and later worked successively at ’Fenxiang’ Flower Shop in T City, ’Leonard’ Jewelry in G City, ’Elite’ Modeling Agency in T City, and ’Oversky’ Group in Y City, then went alone to Alden, USA to give birth, until five months ago she joined ’QCS’!"
Rita Young’s words caused Rebecca’s body to shudder heavily.
"It’s unbelievable that Howard Geoffrey’s ex-wife is actually you. You really keep a low profile... But if I were you, I wouldn’t just change my na; I’d hide in my house and never co out all my life. Where do you find the face to et people..." Rita’s voice began to turn sarcastic.
Rebecca could feel that as Rita’s voice grew more intense, the discussions around her were also gradually growing louder, and the gazes cast upon her were increasingly disdainful and contemptuous.
A scolding voice suddenly ca from the manager’s office, "What are you all doing? Don’t you need to work anymore?"
The crowd dispersed like birds and beasts at the sound of the manager’s voice.
Manager Smith walked up to Rita Young and coldly said, "The company is not a place for gossip. If you want to wag your tongue here and affect the company atmosphere, then you better get out early."
"Manager, with her character, she doesn’t even deserve to work at ’QCS’..."
Manager Smith gave a stern look.
Rita Young imdiately lowered her head, not daring to say anything further.
Only then did Manager Smith address Rebecca Quentin, "Co in with for a mont."
Entering the office, Manager Smith did not speak to Rebecca imdiately but handed a magazine to her.
Rebecca was stunned by the cover of the magazine and urgently took it over.
The magazine prominently featured photos of her and Alice Robinson on the cover, with a striking headline at the top – Alice Robinson: My Days Resisting the Shaless "Ex-Wife" of My Fiancé.
Rebecca flipped to the first page of the magazine, and the front-page headline was the cover story, all narrated in Alice’s voice.
The contents inside were full of contempt and sarcasm, each word a thorn, each sentence like an arrow.
It ntioned Rebecca scheming to seduce Howard Geoffrey, repeatedly ruining the wedding between Alice and Howard, and even attempting to use an illegitimate child to win back Howard’s affection. More sensationally, it disclosed the entire process of Rebecca seducing Howard in Y City a few days ago, with a waiter from Cloud Hotel coming forward as a witness. It even elaborated on her previous entanglents with Skyler Jones, and most critically, the magazine exposed Rebecca’s current job and residence in T City...
After reading the magazine, Rebecca sat stunned in her seat.
"Becca, I never thought you..."
Even Manager Smith was extrely shocked by Rebecca’s identity.
Rebecca remained silent, her face already pale as paper.
"Becca..."
Rebecca finally snapped back, slowly lifting her gaze towards Manager Smith.
Manager Smith sighed, "When you told about you and your ex-husband before... sigh, I didn’t expect it would be like this."
Rebecca still did not respond.
Manager Smith looked at Rebecca and softly said, "I suggest you take the day off and go ho. This matter has quite an impact on the company..."
Rebecca stood up with the magazine, dazed.
As Rebecca turned to leave, Manager Smith added, "When you go, use the back door of the company. I just got a call on the house phone; there are already many reporters blocking the company entrance."
Rebecca gave a slight nod.
Colleagues eavesdropping at the office door quickly dispersed, pretending nothing was amiss when Rebecca ca out.
Rebecca glanced at her surroundings. All her colleagues were in small groups, discussing her. Her ears sporadically caught snippets of conversation...
"And she claid to have the ability to win that ’Oversky’ contract, turns out she’s involved with the CEO of ’Oversky’..."
"Shaless, they’ve been divorced for five or six years, yet she still clings shalessly..."
"She had to provoke his current girlfriend to the point of publishing in the paper, it’s just disgusting..."
As Rebecca left the company, those unspeakable words continued to surround her.
