Second Marriage novel Chapter 171

"Yes, by myself." Charlotte pursed her lips and looked at Arthur coldly, "No matter what I am suffering in the future, it has nothing to do with you. I hope you will stop entangle me in the future. There is a clear order in our company. Employees cannot fall in love with each other. I remember you are married, right? As a married man, you have repeatedly harassed me, a single girl. I can make a complaint against you directly. Then... …"

Arthur's look turned gloomy.

"I didn't expect you to have clever tongue. Have you ever thought about whose territory you are in now? Dare you speak to me like this. Don't you fear that I would expel you from the Moor Group?"

"When did you have so much power that you can expel people from the Moore Group casually?"

Before Charlotte could speak, a cold male voice rang first.

Charlotte was familiar with the sound, and before she could react, Arthur hurriedly called out, "Mr. Manfred, why are you here?"

Manfred?

Hearing the name, Charlotte felt her back shrink, and subconsciously wanted to avoid him.

Recently, she had been avoiding Manfred. When she saw him in the company, she avoided him from a distance. When she returned to the Moore family, she would occasionally meet him. She also left as if she didn't see him.

Now he actually came here...

"Arthur, who gave you so much power to lay off employees at will?"

Although Manfred was the vice president, he usually treated people kindly and politely, but as a member of the Moore family, his authority and harshness were also great.

Arthur was so scared that he bent down, and said tremblingly, "Mr. Manfred... I, I just see this girl is always lazy. I am so angry that I said so to scare her casually. I didn't really want to lay off her."

"Really?" Manfred looked at him, "Is she lazy, or is it because you can't you can't induce her and then intimidate her?"

Arthur oozed cold sweat on his forehead, and smiled awkwardly, "Mr. Manfred, do not joke. How could I induce her?"

"Don't you think I hear your conversation just now?"

Arthur couldn't say a word at this moment, and his feet crumpled, "Mr. Manfred, I'm wrong, please forgive me this time."

Manfred obviously didn't want to talk to him more, he just warned in a cold voice, "Listen to me, even if she is demoted to your department now, but she is not someone you can have designs on, understand?"

"Yes, I understand..." Arthur nodded vigorously.

"Scram." Manfred said foul language first, and Charlotte was taken aback when she heard him, and then looked at his side in astonishment.

There was obviously coldness in those warm eyes. He looked completely different from usual.

So, was it true that people have two sides? Manfred looked at being gentle with people, but he actually had such a cold and decisive side,

Thinking about it, Manfred had already turned sideways, just in time to meet Charlotte's eyes.

After their eyes collided, Charlotte suddenly thought of something and wanted to leave.

She didn't expect Manfred to follow her steps and stop her.

"What did I do wrong to make you run as soon as you see me?"

Charlotte, "..."

She didn't speak, and walked to the right in silence for a while, but Manfred was going to follow her to the right. Charlotte went to the left, and Manfred went to the left. Finally, Charlotte became impatient and turned to run.

Manfred held her hand, and she couldn't move forward.

"Let go of me!" Charlotte wanted to shake his hand away anxiously. There were not many people here, but there were some, and many of them were from the company. If they saw her entangle with Manfred, there must be another rumor.

If this rumor reached Kennedy's ears...

"Unless you tell me what is the reason for avoiding me, I can consider letting you go."

Compared to Charlotte's anxiousness, Manfred's voice and tone were very stable, and he didn't seem to care about being seen by others.

The reason for avoiding him? Charlotte didn't know how to talk to him, she didn't want to face him at all, she couldn't accept that the stranger who had sex with her that night was Manfred!

"Let go of me." Charlotte continued to struggle, as if she hadn't heard Manfred's question.

Manfred's hands were like heavy chains, which locked her firmly.

"Is it because I gave your mother 300,000 dollars? You feel you owe me? So, you want to avoid me?"

Charlotte remained silent, still struggling.

"If it's because of this, then you don't have to avoid me, because I gave the money without your consent. It has nothing to do with you. You don't need to be under pressure, and I won't let you pay it back."

Hearing this, Charlotte's mood finally fluctuated, she raised her eyes and stared at the person in front of her.

"Do you think this is the main reason? Manfred, let me go."

Manfred squinted his eyes and noticed her cold eyes was so full of entanglement and confusion at the moment. He was puzzled.

"Then what is the main reason? Tell me!"

He grasped her wrist tightly and increased his strength.

Charlotte frowned and said, "It hurts me."

Manfred came back to his mind and quickly let go of her hand, "Sorry, I was in a rush just now, how are your wrists?"

Charlotte shook him off in time and took two steps back, "My hand is fine, but I still have a lot of work to do. I'm leaving now."

After speaking, Charlotte turned and ran away. Manfred wanted to catch up, but stopped in place, staring at her back in a daze.

Ivy, who saw this scene not far away, clenched her fist and looked angry.

Mandy glanced at her, embroidering, "Charlotte is too much, who does she think she is? Dare she gave Mr. Manfred a hard time, and Mr. Manfred is...not even angry! Ivy, it's monstrous!"

Ivy liked Manfred.

This was something that many people know.

Not only Ivy, there were many people in the company who had a crush on Manfred. After all, he was gentle with others, and he was also the vice president of the Moore Group. Who wouldn't like him?

Including Ivy, they had liked Manfred for a long time. Although Manfred had spoken to her, he had never really seen her.

Seeing Manfred caring about Charlotte now, Ivy was very jealous.

"Ivy, don't be angry. Mr. Manfred won't take a fancy to this kind of woman. Maybe he just wants to talk to her about work."

Ivy bit her lower lip, "Damn. Who is she? How could Mr. Manfred like her?"

"She wants to seduce Mr. Manfred. She's a cheap woman. She's already been demoted but she still doesn't give up. I'm going to hang her ass out to dry!"

That night, as everyone was finishing their work and leaving, Ivy suddenly stopped Charlotte.

"New comer, I have something to tell you!"
