Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3: Chapter 3 Stiff Upper Lip

Kelly’s POV

I entered the studio wearing just two-inch red heels and a red dress. Everyone was looking my way as I walked along the hallway. They’re all greeting me with a smile but my face remains stoic, not showing any emotions at all.

The conversation with Pierce this morning was still lingering in my head, but I couldn't let it affect my work.

I couldn't fail my work after I failed my marriage.

I took a deep breath to adjust my condition. However, when I entered the photoshoot room, I could notice everyone was in chaos.

“We can’t! She’s not answering her calls. What should we do? The Vice President is coming today. She’d get mad.”

“We can just tell her the truth. She’s nice.”

“Not in this situation, Lily! She’d scold us—”

“What’s happening here?” I asked as I graced the room.

The staff were now looking at me with worried expressions and I knew then that there was a problem.

“G-Good morning, Miss Monroe.”

Miss Monroe. Of course, no one knew that Pierce and I were married except for our families. I felt a pinch in my heart because of that truth. It hurts.

I stared at her blankly, “What?”

“W-We have a problem, Miss Monroe. Miss Chen, our model has been refusing our calls. She said she heard that we’re changing our model so...she doesn’t want to come here. She’s even...threatening to file a case against us.”

She bowed his head. I gritted my teeth and roamed my eyes around. “Where’s the marketing manager?”

“S-She’s still trying to convince Miss Chen, Miss Monroe.” freewёbnoνel.com

I massaged my forehead and squeezed my eyes closed. I grabbed my hair and screamed in so much anger. I felt everyone around me jump in shock. I groaned and sucked my breath before looking around.

“Miss Monroe...”

“What is this, Miss Hayley? You are the marketing manager, what is happening?”

“Miss Monroe, I don’t know how it happened but Miss Chen heard that you are changing our model. She’s about to file a case against us—”

Changing the model? How come I didn't know about this? Miss Chen had always been our trustful partner and if not necessary, changing models for a commercial shoot on short notice would only cause a lot of trouble for the company. I would never allow such a cheap mistake.
