Chapter 118 Crying
Linda was enraged by what Yvonne said in a causal tone. She sneered, "Is it true? I saw her take
breakfast for Mr. Lu and enter his office this morning. When she came out, she said Mr. Lu asked her to
accompany him at tonight's banquet. I'm not good at kissing Mr. Lu's ass. After all, I am his secretary
and not his caretaker. Mrs. Lu is the one who should take care of him. I won't exceed my duties."
"You must be kidding…" All the women in the office desired Mr. Lu. After he got married, a sensible
lady would have to give up her unrealistic dreams. But an unconscionable one who has been obsessed
with Mr. Lu would be angry to hear that someone else was pleasing him. "How could Leila do that!"
"What did you say?" Yvonne sat not far away from them. When she heard their conversation, she put
down the fashion magazine and asked, "Is that true?"
"Of course." Linda nodded as she replied, "I saw her enter Mr. Lu's office. She bought breakfast for
him. Also, last night Mr. Lu worked overtime and she stayed late and bought supper for him. Autumn, I
heard you are Mrs. Lu's sister. When you go back home, you'd better tell Mrs. Lu to watch her
husband."
The first day Yvonne started work, everyone knew she was Mrs. Lu's sister. However, no one talked to
Yvonne actively because of their jealousy of Mrs. Lu.
Leila had heard of Yvonne's background and she intentionally tried to get close to Yvonne. As a saying
goes, "Knowing the enemy and yourself, you can fight a hundred battles and win them all."
She wanted to know more about "Mrs. Lu."
Leila intended to use Yvonne. So did Yvonne, the other way around.
She entered Shining Company in order to get close to Charles. But she failed to be his secretary. Now
she had no choice but know more about Charles through Leila.
She never thought Leila had feelings for Charles.
Yvonne felt betrayed. She walked out of the office without speaking a word, and took out her cellphone
to call Wendy, "Mother, have you persuaded Autumn to help me move into the Lu family house?"
Yvonne put forward this proposal so as to get close to Charles. She knew that because they held
Autumn's grandmother, Autumn dared not to refuse. She had waited for several days but she hadn't
heard any good news from Wendy.
Hearing of what Linda said, Yvonne felt worried and more eager to speed up her action to get to
Charles.
"Mother, I am asking you, what's going on?" Wendy didn't reply for quite a long time. Yvonne pressed,
"What did that damned Autumn say?"
Wendy signed and replied, "Yvonne, don't worry. I need more time to persuade her."
"More time?" "Mother, Charles has Autumn. I can bear it. After all, she is his wife. But don't forget that
famous star Rachel. Now there is a cheeky secretary also seducing him. What about me? I have to
wait like a lump. I am telling you I won't wait. I have decided to take the initiative and make my move."
'There are so many women casting greedy eyes on Charles. If I do nothing but wait, how long will it
take for me to catch Charles's attention?
Wendy knew she couldn't hide it for long, so she told the truth, "Yvonne, I wanted to help you, but
Autumn, that little bitch…"
Thinking of that skanky Autumn, she said through gritted teeth, "I called Autumn, but she refused to
have you move into the Lu family house. I threatened her with her grandmother's life again but it didn't
work. Don't worry, I will think other ways."
"No need." Yvonne sneered, "I will move into the Lu family house without her help. Wait and see, I will
be Charles's wife."
Yvonne hung up. She thought to herself, 'There are indeed many women around Charles. It doesn't
matter because I will deal with them one by one.' NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Seeing Yvonne leave, Linda knew her goal was achieved. So she walked back to the Secretary
Department sneering. When she arrived at the office, Leila put down the document she was reading
and came to Linda, "Linda, there are something in the document I don't understand. Could you… Could
you explain them to me?"
"You are smart. Read again and again and I am sure you will understand them. I have confidence in
your talent, " Linda said with a smile as she patted Leila on the shoulder.
Leila froze with shock and tears in her eyes. David who was also there felt sorry for Leila and scolded
Linda, "Linda, what's wrong with you? She just came here days ago. It's common for her to consult
you, her senior. You used to be a good mentor and taught new comers, helping them without reserve.
Why did you embarrass Leila like that?"
"This is between the two of us. Stay out of it, " Linda didn't mind letting things get ugly, "Leila, I advise
you to focus on your work. I am sure that you will get higher position here at Shining Company sooner
or later. Don't entertain any thoughts of becoming Mr. Lu's partner though, or you'll suffer without even
knowing it."
Linda had seen Autumn and knew how much Charles loved her. She believed he would love no one
else whole-heartedly except Autumn.
As for Leila? Linda said nothing. Because the truth was, Leila didn't know her ass from a hole in the
ground.
But Leila knew what Linda meant. Since they were already in this situation, she spoke more directly in
a voice that was scarcely heard, "Linda, you are not me. How could you know Mr. Lu had no interest in
me? I heard that you tried to seduce Mr. Lu, but you failed. Don't worry I will learn from your mistakes
and won't fail like you."
"What are you talking about?" Linda shouted as she raised her hand to slap Leila with rage. Before her
palm slapped Leila across the face, there came Charles's voice, "What the hell is going on here?"
"Mr. Lu!"
"Mr. Lu!" Almost at the same time, they stood to face Charles as David rose to ask, "Mr. Lu, are you
going out?"
"Yes, I am going back to have supper with my wife. Speed up the case of buying Cloud Advertising
Company, " Charles ordered flatly. He turned and left without asking why the two women were arguing.
Linda was relieved that Charles was leaving. Because she made a big mistake, it seemed that Charles
no longer trusted her any more.
The scene was obvious. It seemed like Linda was bullying the new comer, Leila.
As Charles left, she did not expect Leila to cry and run after Charles.
"What are you doing?" Charles asked as he grabbed her hand and and pushed her away.
Leila wasn't embarrassed. She stood facing Charles, tears streaming down her face as she said, "Mr.
Lu, at tonight's banquet, you'd better take Linda with you."
