Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 188

Then, Shannon looked at Luna with a condescending smile. “Here I thought that we have an absolutely stellar staff that can make the president hand write his own suggestions; turns out that he’s just playing with you. He’s making you pay up.“

Shannon sipped her tea as she remarked. “If I were you, I would’ve just resigned and gone home immediately at noon. He’s obviously trying to find fault with you. How are you still bearing it? Don’t you have any pride in yourself? Don’t you know no shame?“

Luna wanted to leave, but she stopped in her tracks.

She turned around and swept a cold glance at Shannon. “Just because someone is making things difficult for me and I follow along, I’m shameless?“

Shannon changed into a more comfortable position a s she spun her pen with her hand. She looked at Luna rather lazily and condescendingly. “What else is it, then?“

“You tell me. “ Luna took the documents which she had copied by hand with a fiery gaze. “Mr. Lynch had sent back your design proposal five times now, so why are you still working on it after the sixth?

According to you, if you have so much pride in yourself, you shou1d’ve thrown the design proposal in Joshua’s face and tell him you quit.“

Luna left immediately with the documents in her arms, leaving a stunned Shannon in a daze.

As she got to the main entrance of the design department, she heard a loud sound coming from Shannon’s office. It was the sound of the teacup smashing onto the floor.

Luna smiled aloofly and went upstairs.

Joshua was still having a meeting in his office. The moment Luna arrived upstairs, Lucas stopped her.

“Luna, sit over there for a while. Mr. Lynch’s meeting will probably run for another half an hour or so.“

Luna thought for a while before heading over to the side to have a seat.

If she were to return to the design department, Shannon and her colleagues would probably mock and deride her. Luna would rather sit there and wait.

At least the sofa in the guest room of the president’s office was soft and comfortable.

Luna sat on the sofa and rubbed her sore shoulders and arms. She had written for the entire day, and it was exhausting.

She had not gone through such a tough job for the hand for such a long time.

“Ms. Luna.“ Suddenly, a sweet voice rang in her ear. Luna furrowed her brows and looked in the direction in which the voice came from.

Courtney, whom she saw this morning, was standing in front of her in a short skirt and a blazer.

The afternoon sun shone on her face, giving Luna as if Luna was meeting herself from the past.

“Can I sit?“ asked Courtney gently with a smile on her face. Luna furrowed her brows and gave Courtney some space.

“You’re here to look for Joshua as well?“ “Yes, I’m here to see President Lynch.“

Courtney smiled at Luna and leaned in closer. “This is only your first day, yet you have to report once in the morning and once more before the end of the day?“

Luna inconspicuously leaned back a little. “I have no choice. I made the president unhappy this morning, so I’m being punished.“

She flatly pointed at the pile of documents on the coffee table. “I was told to finish copying the company’s rules and regulations before the end of the day. I ‘m here to let Joshua have a look, to pacify him a little.“

Pausing for a moment, her eyes suddenly flashed a hint of coldness.

As Joshua’s secretary, she knew that Joshua hired two handwriting experts that morning to determine and identify some handwriting.

She happened to enter to send coffee in just as the experts were leaving.

She clearly heard the expert say, “If it’s going to be challenging, you can get this person to finish writing within a certain time limit. If under duress, the anxious mind will make one forget their deliberately changed habits.“

Therefore…

Courtney narrowed her eyes. The person whose handwriting the president wanted to identify was Luna’s?

“Ah!” Courtney suddenly exclaimed.

She did not know why, but she spilled the cup of coffee by the side of the table. The brown liquid splashed all over the floor.

Lucas, who saw the commotion from far, quickly took his phone out to arrange for the cleaners to come. When the cleaners arrived with their buckets and mops. Courtney suddenly  turned  to Luna and said…
