Take Me Away novel Chapter 109

Fiona ran to Celine's office and slammed the door shut, startling Celine.

"Are you crazy? Or was there some kind of demon chasing you? Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" Celine yelled and threw the pencil she was holding. She raised her head and glared at Fiona. "My word is final in this office. And you are completely unruly!"

Fiona leaned against the door and looked at Celine before walking over to her cabin.

"Fiona, you..."

"I am quitting this job."

Fiona spoke abruptly before Celine could finish her words. She grabbed her things and gave Celine an icy stare. "Since you don't want me here, you'll be glad that I'm leaving. What's more, I won't let you go if you continue to use my work."

Celine was shocked as she stood up from her seat. "Are you really going to quit?"

"Yes." Fiona nodded. "Goodbye." She left the office without looking back. She had joined ZR Company with big dreams. She had felt like working here was her first step to success and hoped that she would learn a great deal during her internship. However, she had never expected to have a superior who hated her and a CEO who just wanted to sleep with her.

She couldn't stay there for another second. Fiona thought to herself with regret, 'I'm sorry I wasted your efforts, Ryan.'

As Celine watched Fiona walk away, she wondered what could've disturbed her so much.

Something must have happened. She frowned as a thought suddenly struck her. She rushed out of her office and went to Charles.

In his office, Charles and the woman had already changed clothes. When Celine stepped in, she felt awkward and strange.

The woman was sitting on the leather couch, toying with her nails. She rolled her eyes as soon as she saw Celine walk in.

"Excuse me, Mr. Wen! That intern, Fiona, is resigning."

Charles nodded from his seat. "She can learn nothing from you. Just let her go."

"You..." Celine grew angry but she couldn't react, given that Charles was her boss. She calmed herself down. "Why did she want to resign?"

Charles frowned but kept silent. The other woman, however, couldn't control herself and yelled, "Shame on her! She is an ungrateful bitch! It was a blessing that Charles wanted to sleep with her, but she refused him and ran out of here..."

"Enough!" Charles shouted as he glared at the woman. "Get out of my office!"

The woman grunted, picked up her bag and walked out of the office.

"Have you really fallen in love with Fiona?" Celine asked once the woman's footsteps faded away. Although she'd known about his feelings from the start, she had never imagined that he would actually ask Fiona to sleep with him. 'Is he the same playboy that he once was?'

Celine was shocked and jealous.

"What's so great about her? How could she possibly deserve both your love as well as Spencer's? This isn't fair! I actually had to work hard to get to where I am now. But all she has done is keep a straight face!" she roared.

"I don't care if it makes you angry. I just think Fiona is more adorable." Charles gave Celine a sardonic smile.

Celine seethed silently. This was the second time Charles had aroused her temper. She felt deeply upset.

"Didn't you promise me that you'd give me Fiona as a gift?" Charles stood up and walked over to her. "I waited for a long time but you did nothing, so I had to take matters into my own hands. I gave you a chance to do it before I had to step in."

"I haven't had the chance to seduce Spencer." Celine sighed, feeling like she was under a lot of pressure.

"Spencer is not here in M City right now, so this is the best time for you to get your revenge." Charles held her face and rubbed her cheeks seductively. "Spencer is a great husband. He has people following Fiona just to protect her in case something happens. Sure enough, it's been six long years and you don't have a place in his heart anymore."

"He sent men to protect her?" Suddenly, Celine's mouth tasted sour as if she'd swallowed a lemon.

Charles shook his head in amusement and slowly walked out of his office with his hands in his pockets.

Meanwhile, Fiona rushed out of the ZR Company building and stopped at the sidewalk. She was in a hurry to catch a taxi to go back to Four Seasons Scenery.

"Why did Mrs. Cheng head out of her office at this hour?"

"Yeah, that's unusual!"

Inside a black car opposite to the ZR Company building, two people were watching her.

One of them frowned. "Is this one of the special circumstances that Mr. Cheng wants us to make a note of? We should report this to him."

"I agree!" The other man nodded. "This is the only weird thing Mrs. Cheng has done in these past few days!"

They came to a conclusion and called Spencer's phone immediately.

Spencer was at the base discussing training strategies with his soldiers.

"When we go to P City, day training should not be missed. On the other hand, P City is a tropical region. During the day, the weather is too harsh, so it will be impossible to train there.

So while we're there, let's focus on night training."

All the soldiers were debating about their agenda, and Spencer gave them suggestions and orders once in a while. Halfway through the meeting, his phone suddenly buzzed in his pocket.

He knotted his brows and took out his phone. The entire meeting area went silent.
