Chapter 37: Enemies on All Sides


    Her answer, apparently, displeased Aiden.


    "Why haven''t you divorced yet? E, you didn''t consider my advice seriously, did you?" Aiden


    questioned, keeping looking ahead. Although he did not re at her, E still could feel his anger fulling


    the car.


    The atmosphere became oppressive, plus Aiden''s wrath, E got gooseflesh. She did not want to


    annoy him, so she weakly exined, "My husband…"


    Aiden red at her and wrathfully questioned, "How can you still call him husband!"


    Frightened, E immediately changed, "Benjamin! Benjamin didn''t agree to divorce unless I have a


    baby with him."


    "What?"


    Her words startled Aiden so much that he asked in a foreignnguage.


    "''I thought he was crazy too! So I didn''t agree with him! He''s a fickle and devious man, but I don''t have


    strength to get rid of him! When I returned the five million back to him, he almost…"


    With his deep dark eyes slightly squinted, Aiden asked very calmly but in grim tone, "He forced you?"


    "No! He didn''t seed!" E hurriedly exined. She faintly thought if Benjamin did seed, Aiden


    would be extreme angry with both Benjamin and her.


    E haspletely affirmed that Aiden was an extremely autocratic man!


    The information previously revealed by Arthur also illustrated it.


    But Aiden did not satisfy with E''s exnation nor speak to her again.


    The atmosphere in the car turned stifling, and he kept silent for the rest of the journey.


    When Aiden drove to the underground parking lot of thepany building, he just got off indifferently,


    without a word to nor a nce at E.


    Staring after him and watching him disappearing in the exclusive elevator entrance, E''s back has


    been covered by ayer of cold sweat.


    When Aiden did not say anything, she became so scared that she was at loss for words.


    After she got on the employee elevator, E felt incredible that how could she be so afraid of Aiden?


    If she was a timid mouse, then Aiden was a grim tiger. Just looking at him would make her feel a little


    scared.


    The time working in the design department passed very quickly, E was very busy dealing with her


    work. Last night when she returned home from Arthur''s house, she began to prepare the design draft


    for design departmentpetition and quickly finished it.


    As soon as she sent the design draft to Daniel''s mailbox, she received Leo''s call.


    E nned to ask two other female designers that how she was taken awayst night at lunch.


    Soon it was lunchtime, Anne and Be came to find E to eat lunch together.


    Five minutes ago, E failed to find the two women designers who were at the barst night, so she


    decided to go to the staff restaurant with Be.


    After finding a vacant small private room and putting her te on the table, Anne waved to E and


    Be.


    They two also carried their tes into the private room.


    After all the three people were seated, Be mysteriously said, "E, did you hear the news that Leo


    and two female designers were dismissed by Daniel in the morning?"


    Astonished, E almost dropped her chopsticks.


    "So what was the reason they were expelled?" E asked, wondering that if they were expelled for


    drinking with clients, however, she also joined them…


    Be sneered, "Their dismissal is reasonable. The design order they recently signed broke the bottom


    line of just business, which disgraced the corporate image of the Hill Group! I heard from other


    designers that Leopelled female designers to drink with clients in order to sign the design order!


    Gosh, I can''t believe such a bigpany needs to talk about business in such a squalid way!"


    Anne shook her head as she ate salmon, "Only Leo! Other people never act like her. She wants to


    improve her performance to draw the director''s attention. It''s not the first time for her to do such a thing.


    This time she was revealed and punished only out of her bad luck. I heard the director was so wrathful


    that dismissed them immediately. But considering Leo has worded in thispany for such a long time


    and the achievements she made in the past, the director did not ask them to pay for thepany''s


    losses, otherwise they would go bankrupt."


    E silently ate her lunch. ''If it was not me, Leo would not be noticed. In order to prevent other female


    colleagues from getting trouble like me, it is reasonable to expel staff like Leo.''


    ''Anyway, they can go to work in otherpanies, since they don''t be banned by the design industry.


    However, their reputation will be greatly damaged.''


    They returned to work at the office after lunch.


    Before E getting off work, Alice called thepanyndline on her desk.


    "E, Benjamin called me this afternoon, and he returned your bag and phone. He asked you to give


    back his suit, for his wallet and bank card were in it."


    "Well, I see. Alice, tell him to wait for me at hispany, and I''ll return those things…"


    Alice interrupted her, "He required you not to go to hispany, just returning his suit at home.


    Otherwise, he wouldn''t give back your ID card."


    " Gosh, he''s such a rogue!" E couldn''t help butin, then the designers next to her all suddenly


    rise their heads to look at her.


    E awkwardly bowed her head and softly said, "I have to hang up the phone now. I will call you when I


    come back home."


    As soon as E put down the phone, Sofia''s voice rang from behind her. Sofia deliberately speaking


    loudly, "E, who was you calling? Is it your husband?"


    E was startled, then she turned her chair, seeing Sofia and Daniel who was not far away.


    At the moment, Daniel was gazing at her meditatively.


    While E kept silent, Sofia continued, "E, why don''t you answer me? Are you shy? Actually, it


    doesn''t matter, since it''s not work time now. Using thepanyndline to call your husband is not a


    big deal, after all, as a giant the Hill Group won''t mind the phone charge."


    E retracted her gaze from Daniel, then looked at Sofia. Somehow she felt that Sofia seemed to be


    arguing against her today.


    Sofia''s expression was casual, even smiling to her, but E still felt hostility in her words.


    E dared not look at the Daniel''s eyes, for she felt like she was deceiving him, although she would


    divorce with Benjamin sooner orter.


    But by the definition ofw, she was indeed not single but married.


    Sofia stood still, and E couldn''t drive her away. So E had to turn theputer off, casually saying,


    "The person on the phone is not my husband."


    As soon as she said it, Daniel moved forward without any pause, as if he could not stay here any


    longer.


    Sofia felt unspeakably happy when staring at Daniel disappearing quickly.


    She said to E, "Oh, it''s not your husband! Well, I should go back to turn off theputer now."


    After Sofia left, E stood up and prepared to leave thepany.


    When she left, she felt a lot of contemptuous nces floating behind her.


    After all, all the staff in design department knew that she once rode with Daniel.


    They also thought she had feelings about Daniel even though she had already married.


    After Sofia''s unfriendly question, E''s image in the design department became even worse.


    Five minutester, E walked out of thepany, and felt a little guilty at the thought of Daniel''s eyes.


    She couldn''t help but feel a little worried.


    E reminded of Daniel''s questions to her in the office, so she took a deep breath and decided to go to


    the parking lot to see if she could meet him. If she was lucky enough, she could encounter him and talk


    it clearly.


    Finding Daniel just standing in front of her, E stunned on the spot.


    At the moment, Daniel looked very grim, as cold as marble, while his tone was abnormally calm. He


    said to E, "I want to hear your exnation in person."Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
