Ex-Husband’s Regret by Evelyn M.M Novel novel Chapter 430

“Yes, please” he answers, “Could you please collect the weekly reports from the departments. Due to yesterday’s event, I wasn’t able to get them.”

“Sure, no problem. Let me just put my bag in my office, then I’ll get them.”

I leave after he nods. Rushing to my office, I quickly put my things away before leaving for the other departments.

When I get to the first department, the atmosphere is tense as I step into the space. Everyone, and I mean, everyone, turns to stare at me. I hate the attention and I wish they could just mind their fucking business. Ignoring them, I do what I came to do before leaving.

I never got to make friends, because Milly spread the rumor that I was a hoe who was sleeping with Gabriel. That was enough for others to judge me and keep away.

I breathe a sigh of relief when I get to the last department. There are some who give me welcoming smiles, but I don’t pay them attention. Now that the news was out, of course they’d try to play nice. I am well aware that there are people who will befriend you simply because of what they hope you can do for them.

“Hi, Harper,” one of Milly’s minion, Rebecca says, blocking my way as I was heading to the lift.

I sigh “What do you want Rebecca?”

“I was hoping we could be friends,” the red-head tells me innocently.

Was this bitch delusional?

I didn’t mean to, but the laugh slips from my lips before I can stop it. “You’re joking right?”

“Why would I? I mean I tried to stop Milly from humiliating you yesterday. She wouldn’t listen to me though. That should count, right?”

I think back and remember that she did try to tell Milly something about the company releasing a statement.

“If that was your way of trying to get into my good graces, let me just tell you that you failed. We both know you didn’t do it out of the goodness of your heart, so stop with the stupid charade.”
