My Husband Warm The Bed (Karen Daly) novel Chapter 1428

Jules Young, Lena Lesley, Queenie Allen...

There were more than 70 people in Julien's secretarial team. Vanessa was not close to all of them, but she had a basic understanding of the group. These three colleagues loved gossiping behind people's backs. Could it have been one of them who had tampered with the document?

Vanessa immediately denied the idea. Although they liked to gossip, they were not bold and probably did not have the guts to secretly tamper with her document.

Therefore, Vanessa was sure that someone else had tampered with her document. However, there were so many people and she had no clues whatsoever. How was she going to continue investigating?

Vanessa hoped that she could find out who was hiding in the shadows before Julien dismissed her. Then only would she have a chance to stay in Rovio.

The more time that passed, the more likely it was that Julien's men would notify her to pack up and leave. Even so, she still had no clue and no idea where to start.

"Vanessa!"

Vanessa was startled from her thoughts when she heard Joel's voice and swallowed nervously. "Jo- Joel, is there anything that I can help you with?"

Joel said, "It's break time. I'm here to ask you to have lunch."

Vanessa tread carefully. "We're just having lunch, and there's nothing else you want to tell me?"

Joel smiled and put the lunch box on Vanessa's desk. "I do have something to tell you, but it's not important. You should have your meal first then come to my office when you're done."

Vanessa confirmed with him again, "Is it really just a small matter?"

Joel went ahead and opened up the lunch box for Vanessa and the fragrance filled the air. Vanessa almost drooled when she smelled it. At this moment, she didn't care about the data tampering. All she wanted to do was eat up.

Vanessa said, "Then I'll head to the staff cafeteria."

Joel nodded. "Go ahead."

Rovio's headquarters had a staff cafeteria that was modeled after a five-star restaurant. Famous chefs were hired to prepare the food and there were a variety of cuisines to choose from.

However, no matter how delicious the food was, one would get sick of it after eating it every day. Vanessa took advantage of her relationship with Julien and had gotten special treatment in that someone would always deliver something different to her desk every day.

"Vanessa, I'm headed to the cafeteria too. Let's go together." The colleague who had called out to Vanessa was Tiana Gibson, who she'd formed a good relationship with over the past year. They used to frequently eat in the cafeteria together, but after the incident in Julien's office, Tiana had distanced herself from Vanessa.

Vanessa had tried speaking to Tiana, but her attitude was always lukewarm. After some time, Vanessa had stopped trying. The fact that Tiana was the one to approach Vanessa still made her happily agree.

"Enough," Vanessa said. "Let's not talk and eat first."

Tiana earnestly advised, "Vanessa, you know how shameless it is to be Mr. Kyle's mistress, so why are you going on with it? Why aren't you thinking about your future? Vanessa, a woman's youth is limited and we'll eventually grow old and ugly. You know that, right?"

Each and every one of Tiana's words was like a needle stabbing into Vanessa's heart. However, Vanessa could not get angry with her, because Tiana's advice came from a good place.

However, Vanessa didn't need self-righteous advice and she replied straightforwardly, "For money. In this world, you can do anything as long as you have money. No matter how capable a person is, there's a possibility he or she will give in for money."

Tiana grabbed Vanessa's hand and said agitatedly, "Vanessa, I know that you are beautiful, but don't forget that aside from being young and beautiful, you also graduated from a prestigious university abroad. With your capabilities, you can make money easily. Why must you become a secret mistress and lead such a shameful existence?"

Tiana's agitation attracted the attention of the people at the next table. Vanessa pulled her hand back and said politely, "Tiana, I'll lead my own life. I don't need anyone to dictate my choices."

Vanessa had been trying very hard to endure Tiana, but Tiana didn't seem to be aware of this. Perhaps it was not that she wasn't aware, but because she had a morbid attachment to this matter. "Vanessa, leave him and leave Rovio. With your capabilities, you can still lead a good life wherever you go.

Vanessa curled her lips slightly and said with a sarcastic smile, "Tiana, thank you for your concern. However, you are not me, and you don't know what I need most. I need money more than I need dignity. Money is all I want." "Vanessa!" Tiana roared in anger and realized that she had lost her composure. She calmed herself down and said, "Vanessa, if you need money, I can help you earn it. But please, can you do it some other way? I used to listen to you all the time, so can you listen to me just this once?"

"I'm full. I'm gonna make a move first, you can continue enjoying your meal." At Tiana's words, Vanessa lost her appetite, and she didn't want to listen to what Tiana had to say anymore.
