Second Marriage novel Chapter 387

“Let’s go.” Alice picked up her thing and walked out of the meeting room.

In the meeting room, Rachel said, “It has just been several days since we work here. Now she has an order. I’m afraid that it is Mr. Nelson who helps her get the order.”

After that, Rachel crossed her arms across her chest and sneered. She said, “She is just a sugar baby and has no ability to be a leader. However, she is still ordering us about.”

No one responded to Rachel. She felt embarrassed and then she looked around the crowd.

“Don’t you think so?”

Noah smiled and said, “If I were powerful and rich, I would give everything to a woman who is as beautiful as Alice.”

“You! Shame on you! I can’t believe you will fall in love with a woman like Alice! She must have been dated many guys!”

Ada closed the folder and looked at Rachel. She said helplessly, “Rachel, I find that you have been unhappy in the company these days. Maybe you can choose to leave.”

Hearing her words, Rachel stared at her and said, “What do you mean? Are you trying to drive me away? Ada, it’s my own business!”

Ada held her cheeks and sighed heavily.

“I know that it’s none of my business. But you have always complained and the company in front of all of us. We have been paid the salary in advance. Now you complain about it, why didn’t you refuse to receive the salary when you were paid?”

“I...”

“Ada, you are wrong. When Megan came to us, she didn’t tell us that our boss will be such a young woman.” Chloe, who was not far from Hugo, began to talk for Rachel.

When Ada heard her words, she raised her eyebrow and said, “No matter who our boss is, we are the workers of this company. Since we are paid, we should be responsible for our works. I believe you understand it as an adult.”

Chloe stood up and said, “What do you mean? Do you want to blame us for being irresponsible?”

Ada just smiled faintly at her words.

“That’s not what I meant. Don’t be so fierce. You’re a lady!”

As she said, Ada took a look at Hugo who was not far away from her.

Then Chloe suddenly realized that Hugo was still in the meeting room. She had been overacted just now.

Her face changed and she instantly sat down.

At this moment. Hugo picked up the document and went out of the meeting room with a cold expression.

“Hugo!” Chloe stood up quickly and wanted to catch him up, but Hugo ignored her. Then she sat down in depression and glared at Ada.

“Why do you glare at me?”

“It’s all your fault. Hugo ignored me just now.”

Hearing her words, Ada sneered and said, “He always ignores you.”

“Ada!”

“Chloe, don’t talk to her now.” Rachel went to Chloe with her document and said, “Don’t waste your time on her. She is not our ally. Just let her go.”

It seemed that they found common ground. Then they left the meeting room together.

There were only Noah and Ada left in the meeting room. Noah stared at Ada with a meaningful smile.

“You were awesome just now. When I look closer at you, I find that you have a pretty face. Would you like to have dinner with me tonight?”

Ada was disgusted with what he said. But soon she thought of something, and then nodded and said, “Okay.”

Noah looked at her and smiled.

Because Lexi liked the draft of the dress that was designed by Alice, she took some time to finalize it, and then asked Yanis to measure Lexi. After that, Alice would tell the tailor about the details of the dress before he made it.

Because Alice didn’t go with Yanis, Lexi was regretted and complained to her several times.

Lexi: [Alice, why didn’t you go to measure me? You are a famous designer.]

Alice: [I have to give Yanis some chances to improve herself. If I did everything on my own, she would lose her job.]

Lexi: [You’re right! Alice, you are so kind and considerate.]

Alice was speechless.

Lexi did have a wicked sense of humor.

Alice: [I have something to deal with now. I’ll talk to you later.]

Lexi: [OK, Alice. I won’t disturb you.]

When her agent saw the message she sent, he was speechless.

“Well, why do you flatter her like this? Even if you admire her, you should be reserved. What if she thinks that you are homosexual and then stays away from you?” Finnley said

Hearing what he said, Lexi suddenly came to her senses. She held her cheeks and said, “Do I look like a lesbian? I just admire her. She will understand it.”

“I remember that there was a female fan of yours who went to pick you up at the airport and was very enthusiastic about you. At that time, you even suspected that she was homosexual.” Finnley retorted her.

Lexi was embarrassed at his words. Then she waved her hand and said, “It’s all over now. I didn’t know that she was my loyal fan.”

“Why don’t you read your cousin’s message? I remember she has sent you a message before.”

“I’ve read it,” Lexi said, “But I’m not interested in her date. Besides, I don’t think that she will meet a great guy even if he is introduced by her mother. But she is infatuated with that guy.”

“You shouldn’t be so arbitrary. I believe that her mother will find a good man for her. Maybe she is lucky this time.”

Lexi didn’t pay attention to his words. She posted a picture of her and Alice. On the picture, there were words “I’m so happy to take a picture with my idol, /Heart.”

Finnley looked at the picture and didn’t say anything.

After a while, Grace sent to her a message.

Grace: [Lexi, are you online now? I thought you had been filming today.]

Then Lexi realized that she forgot to block Grace when she shared the picture.

Lexi: [I just finished my job.]

Grace: [Lexi, have you seen the message that I sent to you before?]

Lexi: [Well, have you met the man that your mother introduced to you? Is he handsome?]

Lexi: [Yes! Lexi, I’ll show you his picture.]

Then Grace sent her the picture. When Lexi saw it, she jumped up from her chair with a loud cry.

“What’s the matter?” Finnley was frightened by her action. Then he grabbed her arm and asked her.

“What a handsome guy!” Lexi stared at the photo of the man and praised, “He looks great. Grace is lucky this time.”

Lexi: [He is so handsome! But he looks familiar.]

Grace: [Proud/ Haven’t you recognized him? He is Kennedy Moore, who is the dream lover of all girls in B City.]

“Gosh! Grace is really lucky. She has met a very great man. But will he like her?”
