The Good Girl's Revenge novel Chapter 317

The result of competition in the Design Department was still spreading.

Avril was a high-profile and arrogant person, and many employees knew her. Now, she was beaten by a designer from a cooperative company, and Mr. Xavier personally eliminated her from the project. Many people gloated at her.

But on the other hand, the rumors of Nora and Derek's having affairs also stirred up.

In contrast, those employees cared more about the rumors.

In the Design Department bathroom.

The two female assistants started gossiping.

"I heard that Avril didn't come to work at this time. She took a week off."

"She is too embarrassed to come to the company after suffering such humiliation. If I were her, I would de the same thing."

"That's right. She deserves to be punished like that."

"By the way, have you seen that designer named Nora? She is indeed pretty. No wonder she could hook up with Mr. Xavier."

"Isn't it rumored? Mr. Xavier is famous for being sexually continent."

"Nonsense. There's no smoke without fire. When did our Xavier Group cooperate with a small company? I heard it's all because of Nora. I think the rumors are pretty close to the truth."

Neither of them expected that the Party A of their discussion would be in the bathroom.

Listening to the two assistants, Nora's face was very glum. That was what she was worried about. The wilder the rumors spread, the more she felt sorry for Sheldon.

Nora was about to open the door to explain to them, but her hand stopped just as she put it on the doorknob.

"Mr. Xavier is married. I heard he treats his wife very well."

"Everyone knows about this, but his wife is dead. After all these years, it's normal to fall in love with someone else."

"What's her wife's name? I remember it's..."

"All right, stop it. This is taboo in our company. Let's not talk anymore."

Nora didn't know what she was thinking, but she couldn't help but want to hear it, but she still couldn't figure out who Derek's wife was.

She couldn't help but think about the photo she accidentally smashed in the president's office last time. That woman... It must be his wife, Easton's mother.

In the office on the top floor.

Damian reported the results of the investigation during this period of time, "Mr. Xavier, we have a clue about the kidnapper. It's from the Universe International Corporation."

Universe International Corporation and Xavier Group had been rivals for a long time. The two companies were well-matched in strength and there was considerable overlap between their industries. They were the biggest competitors.

If it was a typical business fight, Derek wouldn't care at all, but they dared to kidnap his son, so Derek had to fight back and make things difficult for them.

"What's Universe International Corporation doing recently?"

"Their beauty industry has developed a new perfume, and the launch of the new product will be held in three days."

"A batch of imported products will be delivered to the warehouse in the southern suburbs tomorrow, of great value."

Derek's slender fingers tapped on the desk regularly, "Well, tell them to be careful and not to be captured."

"Yes, boss."

After so many years of tacit understanding, Derek didn't need to say it out loud while Damian would understand what Derek meant.

Damian thought of something and continued, "Mr. Xavier, there's one more thing. When I was investigating Miss Gray, I found someone else was investigating her too."

Derek's face immediately darkened, his eyes twinkled, and he immediately asked, "From Universe International Corporation?"

"Yes, boss. It looks like they didn't catch Little Young Master last time, but Miss Gray got their attention. Do you need me to send someone to protect her?"

He took a deep breath, "You are not allowed to buy or read this bullshit in the future."

The little guy was displeased and stood on the bed with his waist crossed. He was very unhappy, "How can you say it's bullshit? I think it makes sense."

Derek laughed angrily and told himself that children should not be taught by violence, but reason with them. Then he sat on the bed.

"This kind of book is not something you should read at your age."

"Dad, this is age discrimination. I'm already five years old. I'm going to primary school next year. I'm a big boy," Easton stressed.

He nodded, "Okay, you're not a child. Tell me, what's the purpose of reading this book?"

"Of course it's for Nora. Nora is now working in our company. The book says that first come, first served. It's a great opportunity for me."

"So, I must seize it and let Nora be my girlfriend in three months."

Derek, "..."

He rubbed his palm and squinted, suddenly having a sudden impulse to hit his son.

Well, it was more effective to deal with the wild child with violence. Derek felt that his son was in need of punishment, so he stood up.

"The book is forfeited. Sleep tight."

Easton widened his eyes and looked as if it was the end of the world, "Dad, how can you do this to me?"

"Hmph, there's more. Do you want to try it?" He sneered.

The little guy shrank his neck and immediately gave in. He lay down and covered himself with the quilt, and then made a face at Derek.

Although his eyes were closed, his mind was still active as he thought about how to pursue Nora. If Derek knew what he was thinking, he would beat Easton up first.
