Chapter 245


    “What!”


    Sophia yelled angrily, saying a string of curse words that left the eavesdropping woman in shock. She


    finally grasped the situation: the woman who had been seducing her husband was none other than this


    one instead!


    Taking a step forward, her eyes widened as she confronted Sophia. “Why did you seduce my husband?


    You little… You knew my husband was married, so why would you want to be with him?”


    Sophia was ashamed but managed a chuckle. “There’s nothing going on between me and your


    husband. We’re just fooling around, and I’m not interested in him. He kept harassing me.”


    Queenie rolled her eyes. “Don’t listen to her. She’s known to be the social butterfly in thispany.


    She seduces more men than your husband!”


    The woman exploded with anger and rushed forward to deliver a resounding p to Sophia’s face.


    “You’re good at this, huh? I’m going to teach you a lesson in the name of justice. I’d love to see who’s


    going to stand up for you!”


    Pearl stood aside, subtly agreeing to that.


    Sophia was just an ordinary young woman, and there was no way she could overpower someone


    ustomed to doing household chores. She saw stars, and the p left a red palm print on her cheek.


    “Alright, you need to stop, or she’s going to get hurt badly,” Pearl intervened, pretending to restrain the


    woman while pulling her away.


    “I’m going to call the police! You’re trying to kill me!” Sophia shouted.


    The woman spat at her. “I’m trying to kill you? I’m going to sue you for trying to steal my husband!


    You’re disgusting for seducing so many men! God is going to punish you!”


    “That’s enough.” Pearl tugged her wrist and gave a look at Queenie, who understood immediately.


    Together, they managed to grab the enraged woman and stood in front of her.


    “I never expected something like this to happen in mypany,” Richard remarked, stepping out from


    a video call. He removed his earphones and nced at themotion outside.


    Oddly, he didn’t seem upset. In fact, some colleagues thought they detected a trace of a smile on his


    face.


    A smile? Were their eyes ying tricks on them?


    Sophia looked at Richard with pleading eyes, hoping he woulde to her aid when he saw her


    distress. She seemed desperate, but she had forgotten that she was pitted against Pearl, the woman


    Richard loved.


    “I never imagined, Sophia, that you would stoop to this level,” Richard dered, his tone clear and filled


    with disgust. “We can’t have people with such immoral behavior in thepany. Make arrangements to


    leave. I could keep this a secret, but I don’t want to see you here anymore.”

    Sophia was as white as a sheet. She knew she was done for.


    When Sophia was led away, Pearl noticed the woman was crying, and several women attempted to


    console her.


    “Why are you crying?”


    The woman sobbed as she spoke, “We’ve been together since middle school. I dropped out of school


    to work so he could afford to attend university. He promised he’d treat me well, but he cheated…”


    Pearl felt a surge of empathy as she listened to the woman’s heartbreaking story.
