on a business trip with me this time, that Mr. Wilson even booked a Michelin three–star restaurant exclusively for Ms. Caster!”
“Tsk, is this a business trip or a date? Where should the legitimate wife be placed..”
Each word plerred Evelyn’s heart.
She tightly clenched the project proposal in her hand, her throat felt constricted as if something was choking her, and every breath she took was painfull
It took her a while to come to her senses, slowly smoothing out the wrinkled pages.
No problem
Since they were planning to divorce anyway, it didn’t matter to them how it affected her.
She calmed herself down and walked resolutely towards the general office.
I was about to knock on the door when it opened from the inside.
Isabel stood at the door and, seeing herself outside, smiled.
This smile, however, inexplicably made Evelyn’s heart sink.
She walked slowly into the office.
Martin was busy writing something without even lifting his head.
Without wasting any words, she quickly said, “Mr. Wilson, the Star Group’s project is almost finished. Take a look, and if there are no issues, 1 it.” After speaking, she placed the project document on the table..
Martin finally lifted his head, but when he glanced at the project book, he didn’t make any move,
you can sign
Evelyn was puzzled, and his response exploded in the room like a thunderbolt.
“This project was then taken over by Isabel, and you will coordinate with her.
Chapter 4
Evelyn could hardly believe what she heard, “Why?”
Martin did not answer, but continued, “The follow–up work will be reported by Isabel, and you will temporarily assure the position of secretary training”
With that, he raised his gaze, indicating that Evelyn could leave.
Without any explanation, she had to hand over her achievements to someone.
Evelyn fellt a surge of anger rise to her head. “Why! I have worked hard for over a year for this project, putting in so much effort, why should Isabel be given it as soon as she arrives?!
Martin looked up at her with a hint of surprise.
For the past five years, it was the first time he had seen Evelyn so angry.
In an instant of astonishment, be furrowed his brows and said in a deep voice, “I low you are driven by self–interest, to you, but for this project, Isabel is more suitable than you.”
the manager position will be given
His words, which he took for granted, caused a sharp pain in Evelyn’s heart, so painful that she couldn’t even open her mouth.
At this moment, Martin softened his tone and said, “You don’t have the energy to keep up now, and you should pay more attention to rest. The chairman of the Caster family and the Star Group are old friends, so she is the most suitable person to follow up.”
Evelyn’s eyes turned red in an instant, and her tone became more aggressive, “Without Isabel, the project would only be left with the final touches. You say you have no ulterior motives? You are being biased, wanting her to take credit for this!”
“Evelyn” Martin’s face changed.
Evelyn looked at him with red eyes, unwilling.
Martin coldly said, “You were being emotional right now, and even if you take on this project, I doubt your ability to handle the position of a manager.”
“This is a company, not a place for arguments.
Upon hearing these words, Evelyn felt as if her heart had been squeezed, and she could barely catch her breath.
She angrily turned and walked away.
The more I walked, the more grievances surged up.
Her more than a year of effort, countless times of working overtime and staying up late, and the forced socializing at dinner parties…
And in exchange, Martin uttered a sentence driven by utilitarianism and emotional impulsiveness!
As she was walking, a wave of nausea surged up her throat, and Evelyn quickly covered her mouth and rushed towards the restroom.
I could be on the washstand, wanting to vomit but unable to do so, choking and feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Evelyn took a while to recover before weakly getting up.
Her haggard face appeared in the mirror. These days of pregnancy, instead of gaining weight, she had actually lost weight, and now she looked extremely
disheveled
